Market fluctuations are part and parcel of the investment journey. Yet, many investors find it difficult to deal with them and react impulsively when markets shift. Whether they’re investing in stocks, mutual funds or any other investment avenue, downturns and volatility make investors jittery and lead to decisions that may not be favourable for their long-term goals.

The role investor behaviour plays in finance

This article will explain the reasons why investors panic when markets fall, why it is useful to look at behavioural patterns and psychological triggers, and how one may stay more balanced in such situations.

The role of emotions in investment decisions

Investing is believed to be about logic, but emotions may often play a role in financial decision-making. This interplay between emotions and money is at the heart of behavioural finance, a field of study that combines psychology and economics to explain how people make financial decisions. Instead of assuming investors are always rational, it looks at how emotions, biases, and social influences may affect choices about saving, spending, and investing.

Fear and anxiety are two of the most powerful emotions that may influence an investor’s decision-making when markets shift. In the context of a mutual fund scheme, these emotions may lead to premature withdrawals even when the investment was meant for the long term.

This is partly because losses feel more intense than gains of the same size, a tendency known as loss aversion. For example, losing Rs. 10,000 feels far more painful than the happiness experienced from gaining Rs. 10,000. This imbalance may push investors to act in haste, especially during a market downturn.

Herd behaviour and social influence

Another reason why investors may panic is herd behaviour. When investors see others exiting a mutual fund scheme or selling their holdings during market lows, they may feel the need to do the same. Following the crowd may be seen as a more suitable option for many investors instead of standing apart, even if long-term fundamentals remain unchanged.

Such herd behaviour may result in missed opportunities for potential growth if the market recovers.

Short-term focus versus long-term goals

Many investors begin investing in a mutual fund scheme with a long-term goal in mind, such as retirement planning or funding a child’s education. However, when markets turn volatile, the focus shifts from long-term goals to short-term movements. This may lead to impulsive decisions, such as redeeming units prematurely.

While market volatility may be temporary, impulsive decisions may lock in losses. When investors keep long-term objectives in mind and avoid frequent reactions, they may maintain their investment discipline.

The impact of past experiences

Sometimes, personal experiences may also shape investor behaviour. If an investor has experienced a previous downturn and faced losses, they may panic more quickly in future market declines. Similarly, if someone has seen markets recover after a downturn, they may be more comfortable about staying invested.

It is important to remember that decisions should be based on suitability, financial planning, and current circumstances rather than only on past experiences.

Past performance may or may not be sustained in future.

The role of information and news flow

Investors are often influenced by constant news updates, market headlines, and commentary from peers or social media. Negative news may magnify fear, making it harder to stay patient. For instance, during a sudden market fall, headlines may focus on short-term losses without providing a balanced view of potential long-term prospects.

Filtering information and focusing on reliable sources may help investors avoid unnecessary panic. Instead of reacting to every headline, it may be useful to stay focused on your long-term goals.

Behavioural biases in investing

Several behavioural biases contribute to panic during market falls:

• Loss aversion: As discussed, losses feel more severe than gains of equal size.

• Recency bias: Investors tend to give more weight to recent events. A sudden fall may overshadow years of steady growth in a mutual fund scheme.

• Overconfidence bias: Believing one may time the market or predict exact outcomes often leads to disappointment when events do not go as expected.

Understanding these biases may help investors make more measured decisions instead of reacting purely on impulse.

Strategies to stay calm during market falls

While no strategy may remove uncertainty, certain practices may help investors manage their reactions:

• Review goals periodically: Ensuring that investments in a mutual fund scheme align with long-term goals may provide confidence during volatility.

• Diversification: Spreading investments across asset classes may potentially reduce the impact of market swings.

• Systematic approach: Approaches like Systematic Investment Plans (SIPs) may help average out costs over time, though investors should assess if these are suitable for their financial needs.

• Consulting advisors: Professional advice may provide perspective and help investors avoid impulsive decisions.

These strategies may not eliminate risk, but they may provide structure and reduce emotional reactions during downturns.

The InQuBe philosophy of investing

Bajaj Finserv AMC’s InQuBe philosophy represents a disciplined framework for pursuing investment opportunities. Built on three pillars, gaining an information edge, applying analytical tools, and leveraging behavioural insights, it aims to guide investment decisions by focusing on companies with solid fundamentals and potential long-term value. By navigating market inefficiencies through this structured approach, Bajaj Finserv AMC seeks to help investors maintain a consistent, long-term perspective.

Conclusion

Markets will always move through cycles of ups and downs. The challenge for investors is not only in choosing a suitable mutual fund scheme but also in managing their own reactions when markets fall. Panic is a natural response, but understanding behavioural patterns, being aware of biases, and staying focused on long-term goals may help investors make more balanced decisions. By approaching investments with patience and discipline, investors may be able to navigate market volatility more calmly.

India’s consumption patterns have been evolving, shaped by factors such as income growth, urbanisation, and changing lifestyles. The expanding middle class is often viewed as an important part of this trend, influencing demand across a wide range of goods and services. For investors, recognising this development within the broader context of structural changes may provide perspective on potential long-term themes.

Digital Transformation: Megatrends reshaping India’s consumption story

Source: Rising to a Billion: How India’s Middle Class is Shaping Tomorrow by Rediffusion Consumer Lab

Understanding megatrend investing
Megatrends are large, structural shifts that reshape economies and societies over decades. These include demographic change, urbanisation, technological progress, sustainability, and rising consumption.

Megatrend investing involves identifying such shifts and considering how they may align their portfolios with the long-term opportunities that megatrends offer.

One such megatrend shaping India is the expansion of its middle class.

The rise of India’s middle class
Changing lifestyles, increasing urbanisation, and broader access to credit are gradually diversifying household spending patterns. While essentials like food and clothing continue to form a significant part of budgets, discretionary categories such as branded products, entertainment, travel, and digital services are gaining more attention.

This shift is reflected in the expansion of industries catering to lifestyle and convenience, including automobiles, packaged food, retail, healthcare, and financial services. These sectors may benefit from evolving consumer behaviour, though outcomes remain influenced by income growth, economic conditions, and market cycles.

How rising consumption shapes investment themes
As consumer spending expands, companies operating in consumption-driven sectors may experience long-term demand. Thematic funds such as consumption funds invest in businesses that could potentially benefit from India’s consumption story. These funds typically include stocks of companies from fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG), retail, entertainment, e-commerce, food and beverages, and other related sectors.

Since these funds focus on specific sectors, their performance may be more volatile compared to diversified funds. When consumer demand slows, consumption-oriented stocks may be affected. Therefore, investors need to evaluate such options in the context of their risk appetite and overall portfolio balance.

Past performance may or may not be sustained in future.

Broader impact across sectors
India’s consumption story is not only influencing consumer goods but also shaping demand across multiple sectors, such as housing, education, healthcare, and financial services. For example:

• Housing and infrastructure: Growing aspirations for home ownership may support the real estate sector.

• Education: Parents may allocate more towards quality education, coaching, and digital learning tools.

• Healthcare: Rising awareness is driving demand for preventive healthcare, insurance, and wellness services.

• Financial services: Households may allocate more towards insurance, savings products, and investments, including mutual funds.

These trends suggest that companies serving the middle-class segment may see long-term opportunities, though outcomes may vary with economic cycles.

How to invest in this megatrend
For investors looking at potentially tapping into India’s consumption wave, thematic or sectoral mutual funds focusing on the consumption sector may be one of the suitable ways. However, such funds carry very higher risks, because they are concentrated on one or a handful of sectors. Thus, investors may also consider diversifying their portfolio with other mutual funds that may offer broader exposure, such as large cap, mid cap, small cap, flexi cap funds etc.

The diversified funds may serve as the core of the portfolio, while the thematic fund may act as an additional allocation aligned with long-term megatrends.

Considering risk factors
Investing in consumption funds or any thematic category requires awareness of certain risks:

• Concentration risk: Since consumption funds focus on limited sectors, they may face higher volatility compared to diversified funds.

• Cyclicality: Consumer demand may be cyclical, rising during strong economic periods and slowing during downturns.

• Fund management approach: Performance may vary depending on how the fund manager selects and allocates among consumption-driven companies.

• Investment horizon: Thematic funds are often more suitable for investors with a longer horizon who may stay invested through short-term fluctuations.

Keeping these points in mind, investors may evaluate whether thematic options align with their portfolio strategy and goals.

Using tools for planning
Before committing to investments, planning tools may help. For example, an SIP calculator allows investors to estimate the potential accumulation of wealth over time based on inputs like contribution amount, tenure, and expected rate of return (assumed, not guaranteed).

Similarly, a compound interest calculator may help investors understand how reinvested returns contribute to long-term growth. These illustrations may support informed decision-making and highlight how disciplined investing may align with financial goals. However, it is important to note that these calculators are an aid, not a prediction tool. They may provide only an indicative picture.

How megatrends shape investing
By closely following megatrends and the industries or companies that stand to benefit as they evolve, Bajaj Finserv AMC seeks to build future-focused portfolios for its investors and create investment opportunities that look away from short-time noise and towards trends that can offer potential opportunities for long-term growth.

Conclusion
India’s consumption story reflects a broader megatrend that is reshaping industries and investment themes. For investors, consumption funds may provide a way to gain exposure to this trend, while SIP may serve as a disciplined method to participate over time.

The suitable strategy ultimately depends on each investor’s risk appetite, financial goals, and time horizon. Using tools such as an SIP calculator or a compound interest calculator may help visualise potential outcomes and support informed decisions.

Adarsh Kumar, an 18-year-old innovator from Bihar, India, who grew up in poverty and travelled alone to Kota, Rajasthan, aged 14 and with just 1,000 Rupees in search of a better education, has been named the winner of the Chegg.org Global Student Prize 2025. This $100,000 award is given annually to one exceptional student who has made a real impact on learning, the lives of their peers and on society beyond. He was selected from almost 11,000 nominations and applications from 148 countries around the world. Adarsh, a student at Jayshree Periwal International School, accepted the award in London, UK.

Nathan Schultz, CEO of Chegg, Awards Adarsh Kumar the Chegg.org Global Student Prize in London

Chegg.org partnered with the Varkey Foundation to launch the annual Chegg.org Global Student Prize in 2021. It is a sister award to the Varkey Foundation’s $1 million Global Teacher Prize and newly launched $1 million Global Schools Prize. The intention was to create a powerful new platform to shine a spotlight on extraordinary students who are reshaping communities and the world through innovation, leadership, and service. The prize is open to all students who are at least 16-years-old and enrolled in an academic institution or training and skills programme. Part-time students as well as students enrolled in online courses are also eligible for the prize.

Born in Champaran, Bihar, Adarsh Kumar was raised by a single mother who cleaned homes to fund his education. When she spent her life savings on a laptop, it became his gateway to possibility. Through YouTube and Google, he taught himself coding, start-up skills, and entrepreneurship.

At just 13, he launched the non-profit Mission Badlao with his sister-in-law, mobilising his community and achieving real change, including securing land for a new government school, facilitating 2,000+ COVID vaccinations, distributing menstrual health products, and planting 3,000 trees.

Determined to break barriers, at just 14 and with only 1,000 Rupees, he headed alone to Kota, hundreds of miles away, in pursuit of coaching for the Indian Institute of Technology Joint Entrance Examination.

Unable to afford the coaching, he camped out in libraries, using free Wi-Fi to cold-email mentors, land internships, and shadow start-up founders. These experiences became the foundation of Skillzo, a transformative platform launched in 2023, equipping underserved high school students with mentorship, entrepreneurship training, and real-world opportunities. By designing tailored courses and sourcing industry experts aligned with students’ ambitions, he built more than just a programme – he built a launchpad for futures. In just over two years, Skillzo has already empowered over 20,000 students, many of whom have gone on to earn scholarships, launch ventures, and win national awards.

At its core, Skillzo is about giving young people the tools, confidence, and connections they need to shape their own destinies.

Adarsh independently sat for his Grade 10 board exams which allowed him to win a full scholarship to Jayshree Periwal International School in Rajasthan, one India’s best IB schools, worth 30 lakh Rupees.

Here, he helped three other students secure the same life-changing support. As CMO of Bihar Chhatra Sansad, the state’s largest student-led policy forum, he has engaged 1,500+ youth in governance and raised $36,000 for student initiatives.

Internationally, he was named the youngest Google Youth Advisor, joining 52 global leaders shaping technology policy.

With the $100,000 prize money, Adarsh plans to launch SkillzoX, an AI-powered mentorship platform for rural learners, and the Ignite Fellowship, a global accelerator for student changemakers.

Nathan Schultz, Chief Executive Officer and President of Chegg, Inc. said, “At Chegg, we celebrate the ideas, passion, and courage of students who are shaping a better future for us all. Adarsh’s story is more than a personal triumph – it is a powerful symbol of the courage and grit of young changemakers everywhere, whose voices deserve to be heard and whose stories can inspire the world. Their stories remind us of the extraordinary impact students can have when they are given the support and platform to act on their vision.”

Sunny Varkey, Founder of the Varkey Foundation said, “Congratulations, Adarsh. Your journey is a powerful reminder that education is the greatest gift we can give – it opens doors, creates opportunity, and transforms lives. Through your determination and vision, you have shown how education can turn even the greatest challenges into a pathway to a brighter future. Most importantly, you have taken what you have learned and used it to make a lasting impact on the lives of many other young people.”

Applications and nominations for this year’s Global Student Prize opened on Wednesday 19 February and closed on Sunday 27 April 2025. Students were assessed on their academic achievement, impact on their peers, how they make a difference in their communities and beyond, overcome odds to achieve, demonstrate creativity and innovation, and operate as global citizens.

Last year’s winner was 18-year-old ngela Elena Olazarn Laureano, who helped create Ixtlilton, an AI-powered virtual medical assistant that can diagnose 21 diseases based on a series of questions. Designed with local medics during COVID-19, Ixtlilton helps people living in remote areas or far from medical centers determine if they need medical care.

If students were nominated, the person nominating them was asked to write a brief description online explaining why. The student being nominated was then sent an email inviting them to apply for the prize. Applicants were able to apply in English, Mandarin, Arabic, French, Spanish, Portuguese and Russian.
