Thanks for the information, but I was looking for some consolidated database
through which i can search for specific fundamentals, or some magazine similar to the Value Line(US).

you want to do technical analysis or fundamental? The sites I have told you have complete data related to technical analysis from charts to everything. for fundamentals go through respective websites....

due to elections and G-20 summit it may witness some sharp correction..so better wait and watch......

Elections is something that everyone who plays in the stock market is aware of. And foreseen situations dont lead to major corrections. There may be some blips but I dont see a major correction because of elections because all the foreseen events are already factored into the markets. Something like a big company going bankrupt or a war

or something of that sort is what can bring about a good correction; elections will not.

Again, that is just my view.

Hii all,

I will somewhat agree with above view. i even feel that this elections wont have great effect on market unless the results of elections are really surprizing (read: like third fromt getting majority). After first round of elections the sentiments will build up and if it's positive one (read: a single party getting majority or present co-lation getting on comfortablely) then market will tune to its global counterpart else we can expect an correction. similarly we have to watch out at the time of results of elections come out. the best policy will e to play safe here and try to realise the real impact since the Q4 results are coming out and it may also move up or doen the market.

That's an personel analysis and view of mine...

my point was not regarding the election process, but the result. I mean which party will form the government will decide the fate of stock market. As every party has different policies. I hope now my point is clear.

Impact on Market after Tech Mahindra wins bid for Satyam ??

Impact on Market after Tech Mahindra wins bid for Satyam ??

Tech Mahindra wins bid for Satyam

I think this is not sufficient to drive the market. only satyam counter may show some positive result includint tech mahindra. As the bid is Rs.58 and right now the counter is at 50 approx. so there can be more than 10% increase in it tomorrow. Just my opinion..rest depends

vikas130678 · April 19, 2009, 3:31pm

I believe that satyam has a solid potential like Infy in 80's.Because of recession in US/Europe which are the prime markets for IT and the credibility of Satyam has also gone down , It will take some time to see the turn around in this stock.I have taken some shares with a vision of holding it for another three years at least.
what say?

vikas130678 · April 19, 2009, 3:37pm

I believe that the current upward market rally will bounce back after elections.I dont feel that the elections result is going to have any major impact on the market.remember the previos election result when congress came-sensex down but again recovered and created a history in the congress rule.
Ours exports are down , Rupee is weak ,infrastructre is not showing any positive symptoms , IT is struggling-Infy has already announced for a decline in their next financial year revenues,Though Steel,cement and automobiles has shown some receovery but I am still skeptical about the growth.So I believe that its a profit booking time!!!!!!

The Sensex did create history but I guess that would have happened had anyone run the country. It was a bull season that gripped not only India but the world.

Logically, I really do not see the market going up because there is no news as such that we are coming out of the recession. So th correction will be there, the present run is more of something thats just happening and is not really backed by any fundamentls....

vikas130678 · April 20, 2009, 10:56am

Today , I have read in a local newspaper that sensex will cross one lac level in another 25 years.I dont know the source of their research , but what u puys think abt it?

First of all that article has been removed from most of the places:-
example
Secondly, it was predicted to cross 1,00,000 by 2025, i.e. 15 years from now..........and this too in times when many don't invest more than 15 mins at stretch.

I wonder if these articles/(so called) analysis have got any relevance left :|

Hii,

Even i would agree with @andy_jaan's above comments. These artilcle are more or less written just to create an anxiety among reader or to fill pages. I dont feel there had been any substantila research on the same and on some lame logic the pridiction has been made. Even a layman having an understanding of Market will never agree to such distant prictions coming true..

vikas130678 · April 20, 2009, 3:29pm

OK, I know you puys are skeptical but I am positive for my investment.
But one is for sure that the cycle for rise and low of the market is shortening.In other way now the markets are taking less time than before to recover.
What you puys think of next decade stocks that will rise the market like IT in the previous decade?

hey can we discuss the jargon of the market?if anyone of you know such links , plz post those here.

True, it is difficult to stand negative on investment done by investor himself 😃 I too was very positive on things I did in 2007, however, markets had different plan altogether. I have been monitoring markets in this region very closely, but still I find lack of confidence in me to invest any money in capital markets.

I believe Indian markets have outperformed other Asian emerging markets in past 2 months, even when our currency has depreciated more than other nations in the region and we have General elections on our way. There is no reason for markets to rise, given so many not so positive factors on the way.

- Given General elections, Indian taxpayers will have to shed close to Rs 100+ Billion, which will enhance Fiscal gap { This money excludes election expenditure done by various political parties while running rallies and pre-election, the expenditure is horrendous and who bears all this - Taxpayers!}
- Even after huge election expenditure, India will continue to struggle with Government formation at center, no political party will get majority to form a stable government. The Political drama will continue if somehow Third Front comes to power, just a guess how many PMs India will see in next 3-4 years!
- India is affected badly compared to its peers in South Asia on recession front, given our economy has much more dependent on US economy. {FII from US have 24% stake in Indian Capital markets, US has 27% stake in Indian exports}.

It is difficult to predict that markets will make new highs in coming months. Last week financial giants in the US announced first quarter results, they had huge provision for losses. I heard Ken Lewis saying credit has gone worse in last 12 months and he expects it to become even worse before it gets any better.

Given so many negative views and detoriating confidence among investors it is difficult to comprehend Indian growth story for 2009.

Everyone who is 'still' invested is positive. Others moved out after huge losses.

But one is for sure that the cycle for rise and low of the market is shortening.In other way now the markets are taking less time than before to recover.

Please elaborate how the cycles are becoming shorter.

Hello Puys

I was reading above few posts and I came across a few bizzare things like Sensex crossing 1,00,00 points by 2025. Well the fact is that I CAN eally happen. As we all know that any Index is constructed taking a base year. NIFTY 50 began with mere 100 points and reached 8000+ in january 2009, same is with BSE Sensex which rose from 6500 in 2004, rose to 21000+ points in jan 08, so it can happen because time lag they have is considered in more than 15 years. If the Sensex can move more than thrice in 4 years, isn't it possible it may move 5 times in 15 years?

And yes, cycles have shortened. Graphs prove that the time taken for a rising top and falling bottom has decreased drastically. If you see that sensex movement in last five years ( as in the link above), you will get a real picture of what I mean.

Next point, Everyone knows that its due to upcoming elections that the current government is giving support to market and market is likely to fall after elections ( Highest PROBABILITY of that). So if you have invested, it is advised to square your position as soon as possible.

Third point, the markets all over the world are affected by feelings and perceptions of investors. In the recessionary phase, as in today, Govenments all over the world are giving stimulus packages but this will take time to percolate down the lowest levels. So investor's perception are likely to change as soon as benefits are visible to them. So, if you are planning to go for a long term investment, this is the time.

what is the difference in trading at NSE and BSE?
Which is more preferred?Which is Profitable?
Also can we buy in BSEand sell it at NSE or Vice versa?

There is absolutely no difference as far as trading and profitability is concerned. Most of the frontline counters are listed in both the exchanges. Although more companies are listed in BSE than NSE but usual trading stocks are there in both of them.
But NSe is more active than BSE, i mean if BSE is oldest exchange then NSE is biggest( correct me if I am wrong)

And if u buy share in BSE and sell it in NSE then also there wont be any problem. They have same transaction taxes, security taxes and also they are some way interlinked through brokers.

There may be a slight difference between the prices but MSD's(most significant digits) are always same, the difference is because of the difference in buyers and sellers in the two exchanges.
One difference the codes of companies may differ in NSE and BSE.

Apparently the markets are treating the UPA victory as important as the 91 land reforms given out by the Mahalanobis committee.

The markets reciprocated on Monday 18.05.2009 morning by being locked at 2nd Upper Circuit @ Sensex 13479 (1305 points up) and nifty @ 4203 (531 points up)
