Decent · 64/100

A solid option with a few areas worth a closer look.

🎯 A middle-ground option — some growth with a cushion, good for moderate risk appetite.

📈 Why it could do well

  • Very consistent — delivers dependably across market cycles, ideal for SIPs.
  • Protects capital well — worst-ever fall was only 1%.
  • Low volatility (1% a year) — a steady, low-drama ride.
  • Positive 3Y windows: 100% of rolling 3Y windows positive
  • Beat category: beat category in 100% of windows

📉 What could drag it down

  • Weak risk-adjusted returns (Sharpe 0.13) — took on risk without enough payoff.
  • 3Y CAGR: +7.3%
  • 1Y return: +6.8%
