hey guys...I am a new kid on the block but having same colour of blood as of urs..
.
I am following the thread from long time....
I hv a question abt the books being discussed in the thread...
Do this books, explaining foreign markets, good enough for understanding market operations of Indian stockmarkets?
The question is raised bcoz basically we are going to invest in the indian markets.......
what r u investing for ???
Pension fund.
steady 15% income.??
on a serious note
which one of these books is the best, since i can buy only one of em'
Which PF gives 15%, or for that matter which other investment ( banks , post office , pf etc..)
except for stocks , real estate and business give u such returns.
Let me know , very eager to get that 15% interest rate.
Peter Lynch does not talk about Non / American markets .... his methods can be replicated evywhere .... but in the start the understanding may take time bacuse the person is giving american examples.....
Fundamentals/ Techinacals finance will not change .... factors like economy ... sectors ..forex.. change soi they are very relative..

im talking 15% for the fund manager
not the investor.
But my point is that the stocks that are hot, will already be expansive. which of these books focuses on buying undervalued or high potential business?

hey guys
Looks like we have some fund managers in the making out here
If either of u become one and whenever that shall be just pm me
Ok on a more serious note...
i have been reading a few books myself...
the more interesting ones have been ....
The ESSENTIAL Buffett
And how to think like benjamin graham and invest like warren buffett...
And on the market i got it wrong even last time around... hopefully i dont do that mistake again
But i feel we are sitting on really dangerous levels... could nt get any worse... we are having so much of open interest positions ( of the tune of abt 20000 crores )
A Huge Trade deficit....
A ver high Crude Price...
A lots of midcaps flying around every now and then...
Somehow these dont symbolise too good a near term future for the markets to me atleast...
I am somehow being a little more cautious and shorting the nifty in the futures and keeping the positions naked because it is more like a hedge that i want to play out here... the naked positions are for the value of half of my portfolio...
Guys Please update on what u guys are following in terms of strategy to protect value loss in ur portfolio.. in these rather exuberant and deadly levels...

Hi junta
Just managed to have a look on the NSE site and found some astonishing figures
for the Provogue IPO ...
The issue is oversubscribed 67.85 times 
and 23 times in the retail catergory 
kind of astonishing figures seen in recent time ...where there has been a lot of volatility ...
Jindal Poly films (oversubscribed - only 2 times )
So , certainly retail stocks are on fire , especially after the phenomenal listing for shoppers !
what do u people think wud be the probable listing price for this IPO ? How do subscription level affects the price of the share ?
Moi just keeping 
...hope i get an allotment

My humble opinion:
This book is highly avoidable unless you want some time pass. It pales before Ben Graham.

what book is this. coudnt find anything about it on the net?
desperado. Sayswhat book is this. coudnt find anything about it on the net?
Ben Graham? Well, there's book by him called "The Intelligent Investor" which you can get for Rs. 625 from a decent bookshop or for Rs 200 from the flea market. This book and the author had deeply influenced many investors, among them Warren Buffet, Walter Schloss and Eddie Lampert. His other books, 'Interpretation of Financial Statements ' and 'Security Analysis' are also rated well among the best in the fin realm. All three are must buys if you want to learn about investing and want to get on to investing in financial instruments.
No offence meant, But you may realise the superficiality of some statements made in this forum (Then,even many of the so called investment gurus have been proven wrong by the markets time and again)
Could anyone tell me any online trading games where i can invest in NSE and BSE with virtual money.
www.investopedia.com has one but it deals with US markets...

but that should better be done in Excel.

exaclty, wish i could get the 15% rate the highest today in terms of fixed rate of interest u can get is 6%, no risk n all patience which is post office savings
i think best returns with less risk like all would know would be mutual funds
NAV's of hsbc equity funds and franklin r the best n flexible to invest thru an SIP
me suggesting franklin' flexicap fund and the nav now is low n their past reocrd has been good
in any case
Mutual funds r subject to market risk. PLease read the offer document carefully before investing.

hi
I am new to this thread but old to the market. :grab:
Well, I dont further upside in this market for all the reasons already mentioned in this thread , except for a odd Reliance flying...nothing to make you bullish
I think Syndicate Bank is coming with a public offer in first week of july...i would advise going short on its july or august future
Also, Fed is scheduled to hike its interest rate on june 29-30. Lets wait and watch
keep speculating

yeah getting provogue allotment is more of a luck game now. i think it'll fetch a good premium. jindal will soon come below the higher price band. i think i made a mistake in applying to it.
wats your take on yes bank, nectar life science, MSP steel and Era Construction. i think yes bank and MSP are better among other. just my gut feeling. no research. well i'll be applying to all these issue. who know which one clicks...just like saktsoft
happy investing
