13:01 Key Takeaways - Switch only for two reasons: A change in your financial goals or consistent underperformance over 3+ years.
Ratings are just flags, not triggers: A downgrade from 5★ to 3★ isn’t reason enough—watch for patterns and relative performance.
Fund manager exits aren’t always bad: Evaluate the new manager—some replacements deliver better results.
Don’t rush the exit—plan it: Stagger redemptions over 6–12 months, especially when reallocating due to changing goals.
Ignore the noise, and stay focused: Don’t react to trends or FOMO. Review your portfolio quarterly, and act annually with discipline.
