MAUKA Strategy (Large-Cap)

MAUKA Strategy is designed to capture opportunities in oversold markets and build a medium-term portfolio.

MAUKA stands for:

Momentum-based

Approach to

Underperforming & Oversold markets

Knowledge & testing-based

Automated execution

MAUKA is a momentum investing framework for building portfolios when the broader market enters an oversold phase.

For instance, consider periods when the weekly RSI of Nifty falls below 30 indicating extreme pessimism.

Historical occurrences:

> 7 Dec 1996: Nifty at 808.13

> 14 Apr 2001: Nifty at 1024.90

> 15 Sep 2001: Nifty at 919.70

> 11 Oct 2008: Nifty at 3279.95

> 20 Aug 2011: Nifty at 4845.65

> 14 Mar 2020: Nifty at 9955.20

> 28 Mar 2026: Nifty at 22819.60

Historically, Nifty has delivered positive returns over the following 1–2 years after such oversold phases.

However, instead of entering immediately, another approach is to wait for the market to exit the oversold zone indicating recovery.

Recovery confirmation dates:

> 14 Dec 1996: Nifty at 824.62

> 21 Apr 2001: Nifty at 1144

> 29 Sep 2001: Nifty at 913.85

> 13 Dec 2008: Nifty at 2921.35

> 3 Sep 2011: Nifty at 5040

> 11 Apr 2020: Nifty at 9111.9

The portfolio can then be constructed using momentum investing principles, focusing on emerging leaders from beaten-down segments.
