New · our dataRisk and Portfolio Building on NEPSE
Drawdowns, diversification tested on random NEPSE portfolios, position sizing, liquidity and your own biases.
Risk isn't volatility - it's losing money you can't get back, or needing money when your shares are down. This book measures both on NEPSE: how far typical stocks and the index fell, how many stocks you need (tested on hundreds of random portfolios since 2019), why everything falls together in a crash, how to size positions and how long losing streaks really are, how long it takes to sell in each sector, and the biases - loss aversion, herding, overconfidence - that cost investors most. With a simple core-satellite-safety structure, LTCM, Archegos and Nepal's margin calls of 2021-22.
