What is a Momentum Investing strategy?

Unlike an actively managed fund, which invests based on fundamental research. Momentum Investing is based on the technical or price movement in the stocks.

This strategy operates on the premise that stocks that have performed well in the near past are likely to continue to do well and continue the outperformance. It is a strategy to buy on strength, ride the trend and exit only once the trend reverses.

The fund also provides strategic diversification, investing across sectors while maintaining a sharp focus on high-momentum opportunities. Designed for long-term investment horizons, it offers the potential to generate superior returns compared to conventional index funds, helping investors create wealth while safeguarding their financial future through life insurance coverage.

The fund will be available with Tata AIA solutions such as Tata AIA Smart Fortune Plus, Tata AIA Sampoorna Raksha Flex, Tata AIA Smart SIP, Tata AIA Capital Guarantee Solution, and Tata AIA ISIP.
