For getting the NAVs, one can goto the AMFI site - http://www.amfiindia.com/portal/uplo...oadnavopen.txt

This needs a bit of processing though

But we still put our money safely in the banks savings account Why?

In many banks, deposits over one lakh are not guaranteed. Again there is RBI watching this. But still we go for FD. Why?

Gold has been volatile yet indian households buy crazy amount of gold. Why?

The reason in simple. If money sits idle it loses its value because of inflation. So we take risk and invest to match inflation.

Instruments like equities are used to create wealth in the long run. At the same time market volatility could destroy wealth in the short term. So its important to identify your goal and put money required only for the long term in Equities

Broadly equity funds can be classified as diversified and thematic/ Sectoral.

Diversified can be further clssified based on market cap large cap, mid cap and multi cap.

Multicap can further have a subset oppurtunistic that involves aggressive churn in its portfolio.

Once funds are split along these lines. looking at 2 year, 3 year, 5 year & 10 year return within each category should tell all about the fund

I invest in mutual funds only and can remain invested for next 5 to 10 years. I am doing SIP even though market is subdued and expected to remain so for unforeseen period.

I believe I will beat bank rate over next 5 to 10 years. My goal is very moderate i.e. beating the bank rate. Am I on right track?

[Vicky78]

Yes, you can beat the bank rate. Go for SIPs irrespective of market conditions.
