Investment strategy

edit

Kedia strictly adheres to SMILE as a principle in investing; which translates into Small in size, Medium in experience, Large in aspiration and Extra-large in market potential.[18] On his investment strategy, Kedia said: "One should scout for companies which have good management... Find a very good management, a very honest management and see the product in which the management is going to grow, going to outperform its peers and the economy... invest in those companies for the next 10–15 years, and you cannot go wrong."[19] Bet big and ride through tough times is his advice [20] While luck plays a big part in stock market investments, knowledge, courage and patience are the cornerstones according to him.[21] He has been 100 percent invested for the past 30 years of his investing career.[22] Currently he is almost holding stocks with almost 15 stocks with a net worth of over Rs. 1,467.6 Cr[23]
