How to Decide Which IPO to Invest In? | Ask FinTree #8

[@shaunsensei6948]

Sir how to build a network for future investors if i want to start a hedge fund? How would someone who is not born in a rich family and did not go to a top ivy school build connections with wealthy individuals who would be willing to invest in a new hedge fund?

2 unrelated questions 1. In your opinion when is the right time to switch a job? 2. What would be your suggestions for investing as a beginner from salary? Is it better to do directly into stocks or mutual funds? How can we build a good portfolio?

Hello Sir, I am a final-year student of BBA, also preparing for CFA level 1. I want to have a few years of experience before doing a MBA. What should I target for Equity Research or Boutique Investment Bank? Where will I have higher chances of breaking in the industry easily? I have heard investment banks mostly take people who have done MBAs, so will aiming for equity research be a better option for me or not? And after MBA, if I want to join an investment bank, then will mid-office IB experience be more valuable than equity research for recruiters?

Hello sir , Yash Mitkar this side. Gave my CFA level 1 exam this August. I also manage portfolios of around 80 lakhs for my clients(friends and family). After the results are out should I get a job under a fund manager and uplift my skills or continue scaling my clients. Currently I am 22 yrs old.

whats your view on DOOM strategy in this market.

[@ankitsingla5884]

I feel depressed that market is going up and may end up situation like Japan where Nikkei 225 could not cross the 1990 level in 30 years. Retail driven Market doesn't look getting stopped. SIP is increasing on mom basis. almost all the stocks are 5x to 10x. few of them are 90x as well. whats your thought on this.

True scary tbh. Have asset allocation and diversify with global funds.
