As an investment banker and wealth manager who had been doing this shit 24/7 for the last 8 years, the best thing is to stick to macros at this point with minimalist view on micros coz nobody has seen this sort of a pandemic before.

Having said that I had already started moving the portfolios i was handling to Debt and Gold Etf by december which concluded by Feb. Gold rallied around 10% and Debt yields grew (minimally) as the Central Bank in India cut the lending rates.

The second thing i did was considering the macros I knew India manufatures generic drugs so i was allocating towards pharma until i hit gold with Cadilla and IPCA labs last week and now in the midst of booking profits by slowsly selling off upto 70% of the holdings and keep the 30% coz the stock fundamentals are still good inspite of the rally overpricing. In short the stock has rallied by 8 - 10% on a daily basis eversince Trump got desperate for one of the drugs manufactured by them and now with global (including germany etc.) and domestic order books overflowing shit is still a gold mine.

Now i personally do not recommend trading coz that is not investing in the first place unless u have the cadilla and IPCA Labs sort of fundamentals so even if we minus those returns out i still generated an alpha of 10% in two months which is basically over a 100% CAGR sticking to good old school investor discipline. The current overall portoflio returns that i have been churning are closer to 300% CAGR thanks to Covid 19.

Additional future Investment horizon if u an investor outside India?

Also buy crude that shit on a discount !!!

And buy your respective Index Funds at every dip bit by bit.

And remember to liquidate at the end of the day tho dnt get too greedy, get ur 10-20% in a onth or two and book profits and fuck off, plan to stay cash/liquidity heavy with minimal speculation until the dust settles.

Thats is exactly what Indians do a lot too culturally.
