“Next Global Crisis: Should You Stop Your SIP or Double It?”

Every time the world moves towards a crisis — whether it is a financial crash, a global recession, rising interest rates, wars, or geopolitical tensions — investors face the same dilemma: should they stop their SIPs or invest even more? When markets fall, headlines turn negative, portfolios slip into the red, and fear starts driving decisions. Many investors panic, pause their SIPs, or exit at the worst possible time, believing they are protecting their money. But the reality is simple — global crises do not destroy wealth, wrong investor behaviour does. History has shown again and again that markets recover, but investors who stop investing during downturns miss out on the most powerful phase of wealth creation. In this video, we discuss what actually happens to your SIP during a global crisis, how SIPs performed during past events like the 2008 crash and the 2020 pandemic, and why stopping SIPs during volatile phases can be a costly mistake. We also explain when it may make sense to increase investments, how to avoid emotional decisions during market stress, and a simple framework to decide whether you should continue, pause, or step up your SIP. This is not a motivational talk, but a practical, data-backed discussion designed to help long-term investors stay calm and make better decisions during uncertain times. If you are confused by global news, worried about market volatility, or unsure about what to do with your SIP, this video will give you clarity. Remember, crises are temporary, but compounding is permanent. The decisions you take during a market crisis often decide your wealth for the next 10 to 20 years — so watch till the end and make an informed choice.
