Equity Markets

ok i might be the dumbest person aspiring for MBA.

I dont have any concrete knowledge of Stock Markets and its working. Just crude idea here and there but nothing techinical.

So what i was asking, How can i learn everything from SCRATCH even dumbest basics...Do we have any link online ? like tutorials or anything.


you should progress in steps (skip if you already know some). I was in same position last year before i got selected, so i can tell u how i got to understand things.
1. first know what is meant by limited liability company. In case of bankruptcy what is the order of payment to creditors and stockholders etc.
2. know what stocks are. what is meant by face value, stock premium. what are the various kind of stocks. what are dividends. what are bonus issues, stock splits etc. what is the accounting treatment of stock issues, stock splits etc. you can refer to any standard text on accounting for this.

3. know the basic models of pricing stocks. know about dividend discount model. learn the time value of money and cash flow discounting. learn the capm model. refer to any standard text on finance.

4. observe stock markets. try to relate news on companies (their results etc) with the movement of their stock prices, blah blah.

more i ll tell u as i learn 😃

i guess i'm a bit late in posting the reply, but neways such shares which have a big rally in a very less time shuld be traded cautiously...one shud wait for these shares to settle down and then take a position in these stocks....:)
but if u can take risks, go ahead and try ur luck... !!

Hey,Bajaj auto didnt rallied

Share which rallied like anything is Educomp Solution..Amazing share..was around Rs 800 four months ago..trading around Rs 1950 today
Itna sannata kyu hai bhai? :)
Lets liven up this thread a li'l bit.. some amount of regularity wud go a long way in enrichening many..
With May month expiry settled today, what are we eyeing next? A long-overdue/feared correction? A new high on the Sensex is also on the cards, what with the Nifty having already posted its all-time high.. but I believe, for the long-term cyclical bullishness to stay intact, some amount of correction is necessary, so tht the chaff or the froth (read, lesser worthy stocks) settles down..
Another factor to come into play in June is lack of liquidity, as funds will get trapped in mega IPO/FPOs of DLF, ICICI Bank n BEML.. so the bulls may have reason to cheer, as even if there is a correction, the fall shall be on lower volumes..
Pool in, Puys.. lets share views, learn, n at the same time, enjoy the markets..

I think Sensex will see new highs this season and there is a while before we see corrections as even a rising rupee didnt affect the market as hardly as it was predicted then the market in moi opinion will remain bullish this june too.......

I think, it is due for a correction.. All FIIs will silently start profit-booking. and then the retail investors will take the burnt.

Dont be surprised if it falls to around 11K in next 2 months..

I too guess market will see all time high
But then looking into liquidity crunch as buck_was mentioned, we may see d correction any time

But I think the rupee appreciation will come into picture sooner or later.
IT companies may come up with bad Q1 results and we can see that discounting if the rupee-dollar remain so..

Anyone know much about the Nifty Junior Futures and Options whose trading commences today

i guess sensex, like nifty wud touch new highs this season.....after a month or 2....wen monsoon, whether it's gonna be gud/bad, thing bcoms clear, sensex may start to go down...although i don c a big correction n plummeting to 11 k levels...a correction of 1200-1500 pts may happen over 18-20 traing sessions...ruppe may keep appreciating against dollars....wid so many IPOs due....investors r waiting in wings to pounce upon.....i c DLF IPO being oversubscribed to the extent of 7-8 times...revenues of IT r likely to suffer as akhil pointed out...lets c....may be expansions....mergers n acquitions may giv blue eyed stocks status to some new sectors with IT takin a hit.....

A Hostile Bid for HINDALCO.. Stock jumped 10% in an hour flat..



I gained >2000 in a single day.. Overall I am still in loss, as I bought it at very high levels last year.. net LOSS now ~10K.

the Chinese dragon is back. chinese stocks have fallen by over 12% in 2 days due to government's decision to triple trading tax. one can be assured that the chinese ripples would be felt throughout the world. investors lost 350 bn USD in 2 days there.
and we must not forget that the last worldwide correction was started in the chinese markets only.

yeah, I too think that mkts will see a correction in the near future, it may be due to the downfall in the Chinese mkt or may be coz FII n other investors will book profit and will invest in IPO/FPO which are cuming in June...
The Shanghai Composite Index (Chinese benchmark index) has risen at a scorching pace.. while it has risen by more than 300% in last 2 yrs, the appreciation has been a whopping 133% in last 6 months! To put things into perspective, we would have kept pace with our oriental cousins had the Sensex been arnd (Edit) 32K levels , while we are hum hain wahin hum the jahaan :)
Point is, such steep rises authenticate subsequent steep corrections.. anyhow, studies indicate tht corrections are always steeper than corresponding rallies..
I am very new to markets
Can anyone tell me how to analyze coming IPOs? Where can I find information about over subscription and all?
You may take an example of DLF for explanation.
Thanks in advance

well, if u really wanna analyze an ipo, u ll havta project the cash flows of the company in future (to do this u shud have an idea abt the kinda growth which is expected) and then discount the cash flows by a rate which matches the risk profile of the company.

Photon is right, but not everybody interested in the bourses can make projections n other such things.. however, wot u can practically do, and tht too without any tools/formulae/humbug is:
1. Read abt the industry the company operates in. (if nothing else, google it out)
2. Think abt the pros n cons tht the industry might possibly face. (if nothing else, google it out)
3. Look at the size (revenue, capacity) of the company. (IPO prospectus)
4. Decide which companies can be considered as its peers (criteria - type of product, revenue, capacity).
5. Work out the pre-IPO and post-IPO EPS and PE of the company on the lower/upper price band, and compare it with its peers, as shortlisted in 4 above. (IPO prospectus)
6. 1 & 2 wud help form an opinion abt the industry, 3-5 wud help form an opinion abt the company.
This much shud give you a basal fair idea abt the company's valuations.

Second part to be aired tonight..
As expected, the trading volumes dwindled the day (today) DLF IPO hit the markets.. they went down by as high as 30% as compared to Friday..
This doesn't happen normally.. usually happens only on the day after derivatives settlement session (start of new series)..
My guess is, it will remain the same for some days to come.. another guess is - watch out for some serious sell-off on 14th June..

Yes,despite the part payment option for the DLF IPO,volumes down

and also ICICI bank FPO next week and the issue size is greater at 10,000 crores. Expecting lesser volumes ahead.

Anybody applyin to DLF?
