Nepal Stock Market, Level 3: Strategy, Risk Management, and Thinking Like a Long-Term Investor If you've read the first two blogs in this series, you now know how to open accounts, apply for IPOs, place trades, and evaluate a company using both fundamentals and basic technicals. This final part is about turning that knowledge into a disciplined, repeatable strategy — the way experienced investors in Nepal actually operate. Step 1: Define your investment goal and time horizon first Before picking a single stock, decide: Why are you investing? (Retirement, a specific goal, general wealth building?) How long can this money stay invested? (Months, a few years, decades?) How much volatility can you tolerate without panicking? Your answers shape everything else — a 5-year horizon allows you to ride out NEPSE's frequent boom-bust cycles; a 6-month horizon does not. Step 2: Asset allocation and position sizing Asset allocation means deciding what percentage of your total investable mon...

Nepal Stock Market, Level 2: How to Actually Analyze a Company Before You Buy So you've opened your DEMAT and TMS accounts, maybe applied for a couple of IPOs, and made a trade or two. Good — that's the easy part. The harder (and more important) skill is learning how to judge whether a share is actually worth buying at its current price. This blog covers that, in plain language. The two ways people analyze stocks 1. Fundamental analysis This means looking at a company's actual business and financial health — is it making money, growing, and well-managed? 2. Technical analysis This means studying price charts and trading patterns to guess where the price might go next, based on historical behavior. Most serious investors in Nepal use a mix of both. Let's break each down. Fundamental analysis: the basics Where to find company data The company's annual report and quarterly financial reports, usually published on their website or on NEPSE's website Merolagani and S...

Nepal Stock Market for Beginners: How to Open Your First Demat Account and Buy Shares If you've ever heard someone talk about "NEPSE going up" or " share ko bhau badhyo " and felt lost, this guide is for you. We'll go step by step, in plain language, so that by the end you understand exactly how to start investing in the Nepal Stock Exchange (NEPSE). What is NEPSE? NEPSE stands for Nepal Stock Exchange. It's the only stock exchange in Nepal, based in Kathmandu, where shares of listed companies — banks, hydropower companies, insurance firms, hotels, and more — are bought and sold. When people say "the market went up today," they usually mean the NEPSE Index, a number that reflects the overall performance of all listed companies combined. Think of NEPSE as a big marketplace.

While no company can guarantee profits or rising share prices every year, some listed companies have demonstrated strong profitability, established businesses, dividend-paying ability and relatively strong fundamentals .
