BUY IT LIKE BUFFETT

Remember the words of the great investor of the times Mr. Warren Buffet, here I have tried to quote some of his words as he quotes --
“I feel like an oversexed guy on a desert island. I can’t find anything to buy.”
– Warren Buffet, 1973
“I feel like an oversexed man in a harem. This is the time to start investing.”
– Warren Buffett, 1974
Which Warren Buffett should investors follow today?
Based on some of his public quotes and opinion, the Oracle of Omaha has made only three boldly positive market calls in his career; the latest one was on Friday.
The first two calls were prescient.I hope he proves himself again, but for the Indian Market yes it is time to put not all but an proportion of ur funds into the markets once it comes near 8,500 levels.

IS BOTTOM NEARBY ?

The ‘BOTTOM’ is an important landmark in a downward stock market. In the current period it is a commodity as sought after as hope or confidence. It is important because it indicates the lowest point that a stock market‘s index will hit. Once a bottom is reached there is no way but up for the index which also means that if you invest at the bottom, your money will have no way to go but up. The benchmark Sensex of the Indian stock market breached the 8,000 level and closed at the 8500 level for the first time in three years. While it is still difficult to say if we’ve hit the bottom, we can surely say we’re somewhere close to it. All hopes on the global financial crisis and markets. All the efforts from the major central banks of the world to bail out the current financial crisis is an appreciable move but cant garuntee the up move in stock markets. Indian stock markets is much dependable on FII's, as soon as they stop feeling the pain of redeemption pressures they will soon came back to India....................as they have no other choice.

DAY OF DIWALI 2008 - A SILVER LINING FOR THE INDIAN MARKETS

In one single day many Indian investors have lost nearly half of their life's savings….and there are no lucky ones left. Those who invested as early as January this year at the peak of the Indian markets, when the BSE SENSEX was at 21,206 pts, these people have seen the value of their investment disappear by a whopping 64 %. Many of them mostly retired professionals had hoped to make money in the stock market and saw it as an investment instrument that would help them through their old age. But young or old, everyone was a lot poorer by the time the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE SENSEX) touched its all-time low on the hot afternoon of 27-10-2008 at 7,697.39 pts  and gave a close at 8,510 down by 191 points, and NIFTY touched low of 2005 at 2,252.75 points. The markets were opened on 28 Oct 2008 on the occasion of DIWALI when the mahurat trading for SAMVAT 2065 began, On this day of 28 Oct 2008 the Diwali gave the markets a bust upwards to an opening of 528 points and closing at 498 points at 9,008. This is perhaps the only silver lining that gave a ray of hope on an auspicious day of Diwali 2008.
