Manthan was just passing by his colleague's desk when his eyes fell upon the television screen. The equity markets had come off their all-time peaks and experts were suggesting it was a time to buy. He had already been investing in mutual funds via the systematic investment plan (SIP), wherein small quantum of investment is made at regular intervals.
His SIP date was due 14 days hence. He wondered whether there was a way he could pre-pone the SIP date and benefit from the fall in markets as he had read that one should buy on dips in equity markets as you get more units.
