Riding the Wave: Understanding Momentum Investing for Long-Term Growth
July 27, 2025
|THE WEEK India
MOMENTUM DOESN'T just belong to athletes. In the world of investing, it is a force of its own. Think of a fast-moving train. The more ground it covers, the more power it gains.
That is momentum in action. In investing, momentum refers to the tendency of winning stocks to keep winning, and laggards to continue lagging at least for a while.
What it is
Momentum investing is the art and science of spotting stocks that are already doing well and are likely to continue their upward journey. But it's more than just chasing high-flyers. It's a disciplined strategy that blends trend-following with fundamental insight.
In simple terms, it means owning stocks that are rising either due to price trends, earnings growth, or positive analyst upgrades. One needs to step away too when that momentum fades. There's no emotion, no attachment, just a data-backed, trend-driven discipline.
This strategy operates on a simple belief: "Recent winners tend to stay winners for a while."

The middle finger speaks
There are many reasons why Arundhati Roy's Mother Mary Comes to Me is essential reading. For people of my generation, who read The God of Small Things in our 20s—and walked around in a daze afterwards, “like somebody had shot heroin up our arms”, to quote Arundhati’s literary agent David Godwin—this book feels like a vital companion piece. It is a vivid “making-of” chronicle, a kind of behind-the-scenes narrative that in some ways surpasses the original novel.

No beef with Hindi, until forced
Let's be clear upfront: I have no beef with Hindi. In fact, like many Indians, I find myself effortlessly switching to it when the situation demands. Think about it: when I’m haggling with a vendor in a Delhi market, catching a Bollywood movie, chatting with a taxi driver or even trying to decipher the occasional railway announcement, Hindi slides in quite naturally. And frankly, why wouldn't it? It's a beautiful language, rich in vocabulary and allusion, and spoken by millions.
