What is rolling returns?
Before we jump into the performance of these largemidcap mutual funds, let us check what is rolling returns all about.
Rolling returns in mutual funds are annualized average returns for a specific period, ending with the listed year. Rolling returns are useful for examining the behavior of returns for holding periods, similar to those actually experienced by investors. Let me explain with an example.
1 year rolling returns means the average annualized returns for 1 year. Say we want to compute 1 year rolling returns till 30-Sep-20, we need 2 years data i.e. 1-Oct-2018 to 30-Sep-2020. The annualized return would be first computed from 1-Oct-2018 to 30-Sep-2019 (1 year), then 2-Oct-18 to 1-Sep-20 (1 year), then 3-Oct-18 to 2-Oct-19 (1 year) etc., Such returns are averaged and rolling returns are formed. One can ignore the holiday and weekends, else it would be too much of the analysis.
While trialing returns would be a point in time specific, rolling returns would tell investors how a mutual fund performed assuming they invest every day. This way, bad funds which are performed only in short duration can be eliminated while making investment decisions.

This both funds good…other than any suggestions?
Mirae Asset Emerging Bluechip Fund
Canara Robeco Emerging Equities
Please let me know your risk appeitete (High risk, moderate risk or low risk) and how long you want to invest?
Hi Suresh sir,
I have sip in UTI long term equity fund (tax saving), uti equity fund, uti mid cap fund, mirae asset large cap fund and sbi magnum.
My goal is wealth maximization only and I can hold my investments for a long term. My age is currently 32 and I am employed in private company.
Please suggest what to add/stop/exit. I am thinking of adding at least one more sip in my investments.
Thanks in advance.
Hello Arpan, Good to hear about you. Don’t you think you have gone overboard on UTI? What happens if there is an issue with UTI AMC and it collapses? Your hard earned money would vanish. I always advice to diversify investors portfolio across market caps (Large, midcap, smallcap, balanced and debt funds) + across AMCs. I would advice you to review them as first step. Below are the comments about the funds indicated by you
1) All UTI funds indicated – Good, continue
2) Mirae Largecap – Good – continue
3) SBI Magnum multicap – Under performer in the last couple of years. You can wait for another 1 year and recheck and take a call.
Always amazing analysis.
Thanks
Thank you Babloo. Give me FB like
Sir
