Liquid Funds have been getting bashed up recently with strange things happening in the liquidity bazaar. After their NAV fell for the first time in many years, many investors were spooked that these funds have too much risk on them.
However I had written:
As you can see, things have fallen only a little bit – we’re back to about the levels of about 10 days ago. Put another way, it might be prudent to stick around a few days longer and not panic-redeem the fund.
Tracking this, I have a new update on all the bond values as of yesterday. 18 out of the 38 funds have already recovered to their NAV levels of July 15. (the day prior to the big RBI announcement that caused the crash).
