Rebalancing Portfolio – Practical Demo

Rebalancing Your Investment Portfolio

📊 Rebalancing Your Portfolio

Maintain your target asset allocation by reviewing your portfolio annually.

🔁 What is Rebalancing?

Rebalancing means adjusting your investments to maintain your original asset allocation—like 60% equity and 40% debt—especially after market movements skew the ratios.

📅 Annual Check-Up Method (Example)

Original plan: 60% Equity, 40% Debt
Let’s assume ₹1,00,000 invested in Jan 2024

Asset Initial (₹) % Allocation Value After 1 Year (₹) New % Allocation Action Needed
Equity 60,000 60% 72,000 66% Sell ₹6,000
Debt 40,000 40% 42,000 34% Buy ₹6,000
Note: Equity overperformed, so sell excess and move into debt to bring portfolio back to 60:40.

✅ Steps to Rebalance Your Portfolio

  1. Check current values of all investments annually
  2. Calculate current % allocation of each asset class
  3. Compare with your target allocation (e.g., 60:40)
  4. Sell/buy units to bring it back to the target
💡 Pro Tip: Rebalancing helps you "buy low, sell high" in a disciplined way!

बुद्ध आणि राहुल यांच्यातील संवाद - एक जीवनाचा धडा

बुद्ध आणि राहुल यांच्यातील संवाद - एक जीवनाचा धडा बुद्ध: “ताटलीतलं पाणी पिण्यास योग्य आहे का?” राहुल: “नाही, अजिबात नाही!” बुद्ध: “मग तू सुद्धा त्या पाण्यासारखाच आहेस — मूळतः शुद्ध, पण सतत खोटं बोलल्यामुळे तू दूषित होतोस. आणि असं झालं की लोक तुला कधीच मूल्य देणार नाहीत.” 🌱 या संवादाचा अर्थ: या छोट्याशा संवादामध्ये बुद्ध खूप मोठा जीवनधडा देतात. ताटलीतलं पाणी हे "शुद्ध असलं तरी वापरामुळे अस्वच्छ" झालंय. त्याचप्रमाणे, राहुलदेखील मूलतः चांगला आहे, पण त्याची खोटं बोलण्याची सवय त्याचं सौंदर्य व विश्वासार्हता कमी करत आहे. 🧠 आत्मपरीक्षणासाठी संदेश: माणूस मुळात चांगला असतो, पण वागणुकीमुळे दूषित होतो. खोटं बोलणं आपल्या छबीवर व समाजातील स्थानावर वाईट परिणाम करतं. विश्वास गमावणं सोपं आहे, पण पुन्हा मिळवणं फार कठीण. बुद्धाचे ‘सम्यक वाचा’ म्हणजेच सत्य बोलणे हे अष्टांगिक मार्गाचं एक महत्त्वाचं अंग आहे. 💡 निष्कर्ष: आपण सुद्धा ताटलीतल्या पाण्यासारखे होऊ नये...
