Aur Bhai log...
Aaj ka kya prediction hai...
i am sure the markets will zoom if the news of Manmohan Singh as PM comes in...
that also leaves space for Chidambaram to be the FM...that would be a double whammy for the markets!!! 
There is this intersting thing i saw on CNBC last night...
this was the time when CNBC india stops beaming and they take you to the US markets...
There is this program called "Street Signs" and it was totally centered about what happening in India...CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT????
Then we came to "Closing Bell" and I heard an analyst say that DOW Jones is up because Indian Markets have stabilized and also the news of Sonia not becoming PM...
It made me soooooooooo proud...our trivial BSE sensex driving a 17000 billion dollar mammoth!!!
This country really has come of age and the best is yet to come...
"INDIA MEANS BUSINESS"
hurrrrah!!!
Its confirmed then...
Manmohan to be the next PM of India...
losses are down to 15k and the big picture looking good...
May go in for a desktop with an LCD screen
yuppies....the markets finally stabilise...feels relly gr8 that investing in India is a top priority for many foreign fund managers !...believe it or not...its the fact that a lot of Indians r seen as FMs of many top funds likethe Schrodders, fidelity etc....feels on top of the buiilding!...wish i cud b one some day...see some names of women like Mrs Medha Samant...wonder when will there be names like Archana :P....hehehehhe
You are wondering about the fund manager part or the "Mrs." part
Just kidding dear...
Humko mat bhoolna fund manager banke...
grrrrrrrrr.....strictly...Mr Archana will be frm Non-finance background! 
dont wana talk abt finance 24 hrs a day!!!!!!...
hey archana, welcome back after a long time.
look ur absence has created havoc on the sensex .
and looks like u r one of the few ones who has escaped the crash.wow.Mr. archana (whoever he will be) will surely be lucky .
Hey just wanted to ask one thing...
which online broker do u use for trading...
I have an account at ICICIDirect but it has become very unreliable of late. There was a time when it didnt work for one full day...too much down time for my liking!!!
I use ICICIDirect myself. However, if you are a frequent trader with large volumes, try KotakStreet, they have a good deal. Some people in my office use IndiaBulls and they hav a cool desktop trading terminal. They'll be expensive if you don't have large volumes. Amongst banks I have heard HDFC is pretty neat.
Vishal
hey nick use kotakstreet...its awesome...its fast fun n easy.best thing frm the kotak guys is the applicaton KEAT.u download it n then u can do the transact at lightning speed...believe its really good.i hav seen ICICIDIRECT.COM.....it takes ages to load.
yippieeee...me back in green...ONGC is crawling back n so, is my portfolio...ya even i was watching CNBC arnd 12:30 AM n indian markets n political scene were top stories!!!!
Hey Muks, tabrez, Snan-ji, nick and all u guys!
thanks for the warm welcome d00ds! 😁
Oh ya....the sensex missed me it seems!!!....hehehe...naaah...was on a long vacation....and suddenly i felt like the reliance energy si too over valued ans did some reding up and analysis myself..and finally sold it off! My dad scolded me like i dono what..!!!!!...."why the hell u play around with the shares?the co. is doing gr8...then why do u wana sell??? " ....BTW my dad works with RE!..hahahah,,,,he was simply taken aback when he saw the scrip at 400s...hahaha the Biggest Loser for hte day at both the NSE and BSE!!!...
thsi was an imp day for me...was the first time my father began to see me as a strategic investor/ analyst and not his 21yr old KID!!!....
Hi,

i m investing via NSE thorugh 5paisa
my target is to perform better than S&P; CNX 500

my losses on my investment spread over one month are 10.66 from 5 stocks.
did not sell anything
i plan to hold my stocks forever
so i have out performed the S&P; CNX 500 atleast for first month
anyway ill resume my investing after more research.

Questin:
How do you people calculate the intrinsic value of a stock
1. Using DDM
2. Using P/E
3. Using DCF

about P/E and stuff, you can ask Archana...she is the fund manager around here
i buy purely on sentiment...have a few favourites...keep a constant track on them...and buy whenever they are looking good!!!!
Looks like a very interesting day for the markets today...
The news of Manmohan will be a huge fillip but on the other hand lot of people will be ready to book profits from the gains made in the last two day!!!( I am one of those people )
So lets see what happens... :crazyeye:
hey dude!..
U plan to hold ur stocks forever?? means what? dont wana initiate any trading on them?? mmmm....then why do u need to even look at ur stocks!!! u wud either lose al ur money if the co goes for a toss...or u wud b rich with dividends and rights+ bonuses etc...or u wud make an avg return on equity...babla...but if its not gona review ur investment...why do u need ot know any kinda analysis in the first place?
Up and Down day for the markets...
and they were holding pretty good before some profit booking in the last part of the day...
I guess the weakness now is more due the external factors(discussed in previous posts) rather than anything domestic....
Tomorrow i think will be determined by how the US markets trade today...
Dow Jones has looked weak and if that continues, Indian markets may also be affected...
( trying to pull of an "udayan" here)
Me made a decent profit in Hotel Leela ventures!!!
If you hear the reasoning behind my buying this share you will be amazed...
there was this report in TOI which said that hotels in Bangalore are booked for the next 3-4 months...
we also got an internal mailer in Wipro saying that any client visits have to be informed in advance so that rooms can be booked...(specially in 5 star hotels)
Now the biggest 5 star in Bangalore is Hotel Leela...
and i thought the hotel Industry seems to be doing pretty well...so I bought the shares!!!
Howz that for reasoning???
well mois still having a red portfolio.....the PSU scrips have hammered me.... 😞 😞 😞
SAIL, GAIL, ONGC, RCF, MRPL
and 2 make matters worse....my non PSU srcips seem 2 be static for a long time....Aurobindo, Ranbaxy, Raymond, Arvind, hind zinc... 😞 😞 😞
