Indian Investors Advised to Maintain US Equity Exposure
An expert named Subho Moulik, who is the CEO of a company called Appreciate, thinks Indian investors should keep investing in US stocks.
He says the US market is doing well, with strong profits and good growth.
Even though some people worry about high prices and a few big companies driving the market, Moulik believes it's a good time to invest in high-quality US companies.
He also thinks the US dollar will keep getting stronger, which is good for Indian investors.
The expert advises investors to keep a balanced mix of stocks and bonds and to use any drops in the market as chances to buy more US stocks.
Indian investors should maintain and gradually build US equity exposure, focusing on high-quality, cash-generating franchises and diversified funds.
The recent dip in US tech stocks is seen as a healthy pause in an ongoing earnings-led bull market, not the end of the story.
US corporations are delivering robust profit growth, with a large share of S&P 500 companies beating earnings and revenue expectations.
Rising US bond yields tighten global financial conditions, but India's strong external positions provide resilience.
Global diversification becomes more attractive during US market corrections, improving forward return potential.

“For Indian investors accessing US markets through funds or platforms, this suggests maintaining and gradually building US exposure, focusing on high-quality, cash-generative franchises and diversified funds, rather than trying to 'wait out' indicators that can remain amber for years while the earnings machine continues to compound.”

“The ongoing long-term appreciation trend of the US dollar versus the Indian rupee is expected to continue to add 3-4% of additional rupee returns for Indian investors in US assets over the next decade, which will continue to be an added incentive for Indian investors to increase US exposure long-term.”
