By Rahul Pithadia: History shows that Equity markets have given by far better returns than any other asset class over the long term basis. Each asset may it be orthodox Bank Fixed Deposit, Debt funds, Gold or Equity each of them are impacted by Economic and Interest rate cycle. Equity markets are also largely driven by collective social mood. However, such movements are not random but in patterned fashion and are governed by Elliott wave theory.
Case in point: Volatility is high in Equity markets and many have bad memories of the sharp corrections seen during the fall of 2008. But if you really look at the bigger term picture the overall trend has been on the upside and we are on constant path of progression. The high made by Sensex was near 21000 in 2008 and we touched a level of 30000 early this year. So even if you would have been among a few who ended up investing exactly at the wrong time at the top of 2008 still your portfolio would have been at much higher level provided you selected the right stock or Mutual Fund.

Above chart clearly shows that even if you would have invested in this fund at the top of 2008 near 53 levels you would have ended up making 100% return.
