Updated on May 16, 2025 , 2381 views

Why Equities are Good for Long-term?

Whenever we hear about equity investment, the first thing we hear is, equities are good for a long-term investment. However, various people do carry negative views with respect to equity investment. So, let us understand why and how equity is a good investment for long-term, the myths behind equity investment, and parameters to be checked while Investing in equity and the concept of Equity Funds.

Understanding SENSEX Past Performance

Now, let us focus on the performance of Sensex since its inception with the help of the graph given below.

Sensex Performance

(as on 3rd January, 2018, Source- BSE Limited)

The given graph of Sensex shows that there is an overall increase in since its inception in 1979. The date on which the data taken is as of January 03, 2018. Till date since 1979, the Compounded Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) is approximately 16.39%. However, it does not mean that Sensex has seen only upward movements. However, the biggest growth that Sensex has witnessed is between the period 1979-1994 when the markets grew from 100 to 3,927 points. People who had invested during this period would have earned considerable profits. In addition, these investors also did not face much negative returns as others did. Resultantly, these people would have definitely earned. The second best phase in which investors had earned returns were during 2003-2007, but the increase during this period was not as effective as the first phase.

So, do you think that the Market has always witnessed a good pace? It has also witnessed downturns. Some of the worst spells where the Sensex was showing a downturn were during September 1994 - 1999, 2000 - 2003, and 2008 - 2010. Any individual who would have invested during this period would have definitely been negative. However, again, if these investors would have held their investments long, they would have definitely earned profits. As we can see in the map, the downturn period is not much visible.

So, after understanding the myths about equity, let's now see how to select the stocks.

Common Myths Behind Equity Investment

As mentioned earlier, equity investment has a number of myths associated with it. So, let us look at some of the prevalent myths behind equity investment.

1. If a Stock Has Done Well in the Past, it will Do Well in the Future Too

The first myth which people believe while investing in shares is; if a company has done well in the past, it will also do well in the future. Though this thought can give some comfort level yet; it is not completely true. It’s because; a company’s success always depends on the environment in which it performs and whether it is able to adapt itself to the changing business conditions. If it is not able to do so then; the company will not be in a position, to perform in the future.

Therefore, people should conduct a self-analysis before investing in the shares of any company. They should check the company's past performance, its future potentials, the Industry conditions in which it performs, and other related parameters.

2. I am not Able to Earn Returns Faster Through Equities as it is Sheer Luck

The second presumption people feel is they cannot earn by equity investment as it is based on sheer luck. However, as mentioned in the earlier paragraph, people need to understand that the variation of average returns reduces with the increase in the holding tenure. This is because, in the long-term, the fluctuation of the short-term Volatility reduces and the chances of making losses are also lower. Resultantly, the variations in the Earnings start to decrease with the increase in the tenure. This concept is explained with the help of the table given below.

Investing Tenure Average Returns (%) Deviation of Returns From Average (%)
1 Year 18 ± 34
3 Year 13 ± 16%
5 Year 13 ± 13%
7 Year 13 ± 10%
10 Year 13 ± 9%
12 Year 13 ± 8%
14 Year 12 ± 7%

3. Only a Few are Earning in Share Markets as Equity Markets Are Volatile

It is one of the prevalent myths among individuals. A lot of people feel that they cannot earn by investing in shares. Individuals in a lot of instances feel; though the share markets are showing uptrend; yet I am not able to make my fortune. However, this isn’t true.

*One has to understand equity investing is a zero-sum game. Therefore, one person’s profit is another person’s loss. However, the outcome of whether you made a profit or ended up in a loss is decided upon the time you enter and exit the market. *

It would be again reiterated that, the key to success in equity investments is its long-term holding. One of the world’s renowned investor Warren Buffet built his empire not just because of investing. Instead, he has earned the wealth because of holding the investments for a long-term. In case of long-term investing, even a small sum of money invested gives a larger return. People who remain invested for a very long time can amass a fortune even with a small investment. The following graph shows how the probability of losses decreases with an increase in the investment tenure.

How to Invest in Equities

It is the most important step. People while investing in equities need to stick to certain basic rules. Some of these rules are listed below as follows.

Invest in Stocks After its Complete Analysis & Don’t Follow Herd Behavior

The primary rule of investing is; invest in financial instruments that you understand and not the ones which you don’t. Hence, people should do a complete analysis of the shares in which they want to invest. They should go through its annual reports, check its future prospects and so on. Additionally, one should not be biased in their stock selection process.Also, many people do follow a herd behavior when it comes to investing, which should not be the case. It is not a good idea. People forming part of the herd, enter when the market is at its peak and sell when it forms a bottom. Therefore, be careful that you don’t buy the shares when all are entering a buy Call and do not sell when everyone goes on a selling spree.

Diversification is the Key to Success

The important role in the case of investing is diversification, which is the key to success as it helps to reduce the level of risk. As rightly quoted that “Don’t hatch all your eggs in one basket;” similarly your investment should be distributed across numerous stocks in a predefined ratio. Diversification, in this context, means that people investing the corpus in different shares of various companies with respect to capitalization, sectors, and other parameters. This is because there are situations where mid-cap shares tend to outperform large-cap shares. So, one needs to have a constant watch on how a share is performing.

Rebalance Your Portfolio Timely

It’s rightly said that, to err is human. Similarly, while investing in stock markets, many people do commit mistakes. The mistake in this context is investing in shares where you have bad deals. However, the most important part is to rectify the wrong investment by rebalancing your Portfolio. It is important to monitor your equity investment in a timely manner. This will help to identify which stocks to sell and which ones to retain. Rebalancing the portfolio always helps to get rid of the bad stocks and thereby people can earn more Income.

Thus, from the above pointers, it can be said that whenever you choose to invest in equities, you need to spend a lot of time in share markets rather than the market timing. Also, people should always understand the company before investing in its shares so that their investment money is safe and paves way for wealth creation.
