Should one invest in Precious Metals at these elevated Levels?
posted on 30 January 2026 by Sunil Jhaveri
Lately, I have fielded this question daily from investors and MFDs: "We've missed the precious metals surge—is it too late to buy?" It is surprising how many overlooked this once-in-a-generation rally, where gold and silver doubled or tripled in value over the past two years. Blame goes to equity obsession for long-term wealth and business channels fixated on India's growth story, ignoring the seismic shifts brewing elsewhere.
Why Silver is Your Family Jewel?

Silver is not just a metal anymore —it has achieved a family jewel status. That emotional bond you feel with heirlooms? The last-resort safety net in crises? Treat your silver stack the same. If you have bought it cheap levels in 2024 and 2025, Don't sell. Hoard, Hold, Cherish
Tug of War between East and West
posted on 27 December 2025 by Sunil Jhaveri
Silver spot prices showed a notable divergence last Friday (December 26, 2025) between Eastern and Western markets, with Shanghai physical trading near $80/oz while COMEX hovered around $72/oz, creating a $6-8 premium driven by physical demand in Asia. This gap aligns with reports of Eastern markets demanding immediate physical delivery amid low inventories, contrasting Western paper trading on COMEX and LBMA. Prices converged somewhat as Western markets reacted, with silver settling higher around $77-79/oz by December 26 amid a broader 10%+ surge from recent lows
Partial profit booking from precious metals
posted on 22 December 2025 by Sunil Jhaveri
In an earlier article of mine I had compared the 2025 precious metals rally with those in 1980 and 2011, and argued that the present advance is fundamentally different from those earlier, largely speculative spikes. Even so, it now makes sense to systematically protect paper profits by taking money off the table to the extent of roughly 33 to 50 percent of original capital, thereby reducing the average cost of holdings in both gold and silver, and then remaining comfortably invested in a reduced cost core position for the long term.
Asset Allocation Playbook for 2026
posted on 12 December 2025 by Sunil Jhaveri
A number of highly respected investors and economists are flagging growing risks in the US market outlook for 2026, particularly around an AI driven bubble funded increasingly by easy credit. In this environment, portfolios for 2026 need to balance participation in growth (especially in India) with explicit protection against a potential US led repricing, rather than being either fully risk-on or fully risk-off.

On 18th September 2024, I had penned a note titled: POST FED RATE CUT CAN FINANCIALS BE THE NEW DEFENSIVE PLAY? Let us revisit that call and see how it has panned out and what is the outlook for this sector going forward as well:
Navigating Equities in 2026: India's Rise Amid US Market Dynamics
posted on 06 November 2025 by Sunil Jhaveri
Will funds rotate out of the US markets due to extreme valuations, very high debt to GDP and move to emerging markets like India which has not performed over past 1 year? There is indeed a growing expectation among market experts and investors that funds might rotate out of the US markets due to extreme valuations, very high debt-to-GDP ratios, inflation concerns, and slower economic growth, and allocate more capital to emerging markets like India that have underperformed in the past year but have stronger growth potential and attractive valuations.
Time to Look Beyond NIFTY 50 for Returns in 2026
posted on 27 October 2025 by Sunil Jhaveri
Indian equities have delivered no returns over the past year since it peaked on 23rd September 2024. Mid Cap and Small Cap indices have performed even worse than large cap index represented by NIFTY 50. This can clearly be a reflection of the muted earnings growth and overstretched valuations during this period. Earnings growth, represented by EPS of NIFTY 50 was a muted 5.80% over past 1 year............NIFTY 50 earnings growth is expected to recover gradually, but sectoral themes like digital, innovation, consumption, and manufacturing are likely to deliver much stronger double-digit growth, well above the broader index's pace over the next few years.
