Know the index structure & what your are buying!

To keep it simple, N500 index fund is sufficient, as it covers 95% of the entire market.
Or

N100 is 78% of the market, where N50+NN50 is 80:20 ratio.
Have higher risk appetite? buy 50:50 of N50+N100.

Important.
Whenever you invest in Fund of funds, check the expense ratios of both the local fund & the global fund which is investing into.
e.g., Nasdaq FOF ER is 0.1%, but you have to add the ER of ETF which 0.54%, total 0.64%

Good to see AMCs like @EdelweissMF mentioning it.

When you invest in a global fund, and compare expenses across funds:

1. Compare \U0001f34e to \U0001f34e: Total cost includes offshore fund cost plus what local AMC charges.

2. Get this data from the AMC website. Many 3rd party websites don\u2019t include underlying fund costs.

Comparison of SPX 500 vs Nasdaq 100:

Like Nifty 500, which covers 95% of NSE,
SPX500 is a broad based index with market cap coverage of 80% vs Nasdaq 34%, a tech heavy index.

Entirely upto investor's risk appetite in choosing between the 2 indices.

It's the weekend!
Grab a cup of coffee, in this thread I will explain

1. What are ETFs?
2. How are they different from Mutual Funds?
3. What are factors to consider while investing in ETFs?

Lets dive right in.

ETFs stand for Exchange Traded Funds

The easiest way to understand them is to think of them as Mutual Funds that are traded on the exchange just like stocks.

(technically, ETFs are nothing like Mutual Funds)

ETFs are structured as pools of investment that are inclined to

a. lower the fees associated with investment
b. shift the bulk load of fees to frequent traders of the ETF than holders
c. allow investors to invest in diverse set of securities / asset classes easily

ETFs originated after the stock market crash of 1987 in US

'Passive Investing' was the new shiny thing and investors wanted a low cost way to invest in the index without any manager actively managing their investments

Enter Nate Most

Nate Most is known as the father of ETFs
A physicist by training, Nate got the idea of ETF from warehouse receipts

ugh i wanted to do a thread about the wars in Star Wars and how the two outlying wars (the clone wars in the prequels and the cold war/civil war in the sequels) are really weird but i don't feel like it any more.

my first argument is that the Clone Wars were a really complex morally gray moment in Star Wars canon in like, 5 different directions and I'd kind of like to know why Lucas did that.

especially with the direct line that's drawn in the OT with the allegory of WW2 and Vietnam with the rebels being the Vietnamese and the Empire being America. That...doesn't exist in the Clone Wars.

for starters: it's weird it's called the Clone Wars. I get why, because that's what Kenobi calls it in STAR WARS, but the clones are a small facet in the larger story of the war.

the clones basically only exist as a macguffin in AOTC that is...extremely confusing ultimately. Because if you accept that Sidious has this grand master plan to use this war to destabilize the Republic and form an Empire...it's way too complex.

AHOBILAM NARASIMHA SWAMY KSHETRAM: KURNOOL (AP)
#andhratemples

Ahobilam is the place where Prabhu appears in his fierce form, called Ugra Narasimha, who is Svayambhu (self-manifest).
Ahobilam is one of the 108 Divya Desams. It has 9 shrines for different forms of Narsimha.

Ahobilam was the exact place where Sri Narasimha appeared and tore apart Hiranyakashipu to save Prahlad. At that moment, all the Devas appeared and praised him as Ahobala (Aho is mighty and bala is strength). So the place came to be called Ahobilam.

Out of the 9 shrines, most famous is the Ahobila Narasimha Swamy where Prabhu is seen as Ugra Narasimha.
In another shrine, Prabhu appears as Malola Narasimha Swamy. Malola means beloved of Lakshmi. Here Prabhu is in peaceful mudra with his consort Ma ChenchuLakshmi.

Jwala Narasimha Swamy shrine is the actual spot where the fierce anger of Prabhu reached its culmination when he tore Hiranyakasipu.

Ugra Stambham is the pillar from which Narasimha appeared with such force that the entire hill split into two.

1/Politics thread time.

To me, the most important aspect of the 2018 midterms wasn't even about partisan control, but about democracy and voting rights. That's the real battle.

2/The good news: It's now an issue that everyone's talking about, and that everyone cares about.

3/More good news: Florida's proposition to give felons voting rights won. But it didn't just win - it won with substantial support from Republican voters.

That suggests there is still SOME grassroots support for democracy that transcends

4/Yet more good news: Michigan made it easier to vote. Again, by plebiscite, showing broad support for voting rights as an

We seem to have accepted electoral dysfunction in Florida as a permanent thing. The 2000 election has never really

Bad ballot design led to a lot of undervotes for Bill Nelson in Broward Co., possibly even enough to cost him his Senate seat. They do appear to be real undervotes, though, instead of tabulation errors. He doesn't really seem to have a path to victory. https://t.co/utUhY2KTaR
