Value investor Safir Anand believes that oftentimes buying the dip in small quantities, using “contingency funds” could turn out to be fruitful for investors.

What Happened? In a tweet on Thursday morning, the popular investor mentioned that he wouldn’t mind buying bank stocks at the current level, despite suffering from a liquidity crunch for personal reasons.

Anand, in a follow-up tweet in the afternoon, mentioned that he did eventually burn into some of his contingency funds to buy small quantities of bank stocks in the morning.

“Sometimes you should not beg, borrow or steal but simply use your contingency funds. Bought banks as shared this morning. Small is also beautiful,” tweeted the IP lawyer.
