One-year returns of most schemes are in single digits. Some funds have even delivered negative returns in a year. However, returns of most schemes are in the double digits over long periods.
SBI Small Cap Fund's one-year return is in the negative, yet its long-term annualised returns over 10 years is 19.57%, underscoring the benefits of long-term investment.
The performance of a mutual fund scheme often changes from one market cycle to another. However, returns over the long term may give an idea about how the fund has weathered multiple cycles.
The performance of thematic funds can be very erratic, even in the long term as their returns are entirely dependent on one theme or a sector.
One should not invest based only on past performance. It is important to ensure that the fund is suitable for your portfolio and risk profile. In case of confusion, it is always better to take advice from a SEBI-approved investment advisor.
