The Reserve Bank's decision on Friday to raise the key interest rate by half a percentage point will increase the EMIs for home, auto and other loans, though the hawkish move was cheered by both equity and forex markets, with the benchmark BSE Sensex rising more than 1,000 points and the rupee appreciating by 33 paise against the US dollar.

Even as markets have grown manifold during the past two decades and so have mutual funds, retail investors made the least compared to fund houses in all asset classes as they have been churning their portfolios too fast when markets turned choppy, according to a report.

And the Axis AMC analysts attribute this mainly to the frequent churn that investor portfolios faced when the market turns choppy. Between 2003 and 2022, when fund houses gained as much as 19.1 per cent from equity funds investments, investors, primarily retail, gained the lowest at 13.8 per cent, while systematic investment returns were higher at 15.2 per cent, the analysts said. Similarly, investors' returns from hybrid funds were the lowest at 7.4 per
