You should not only diversify your equity basket, but also diversify your whole investment basket.DSE is a sham to be honest. I am going to buy 25 lacs of idlc share since our stock market is at one of the lowest points and lock it down for 2 years. Its just a big sham, our dse. I would know since my family owns a broker house in Dhaka.
Based on your risk apatite, you should add bonds, fixed deposits, gold and property to it.(In addition to equity).
You should never invest an amount in equity which you cannot hold for 4-5 years.
In long term the basic premise remains same, you buy part of a growing company. It grows and your money grows. If you enter market for short term as trader, you should know you are taking higher risk.
If your exchange itself largely does not play by rules, you should not invest in it then.
