Comments on: As With Jobs, So With Stocks http://indianeconomy.org/2005/09/22/as-with-jobs-so-with-stocks/ Issues & insights Wed, 9 Jul 2008 02:04:38 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3.1 By: Bharat Agarwalla http://indianeconomy.org/2005/09/22/as-with-jobs-so-with-stocks/#comment-1832 Bharat Agarwalla Thu, 26 Jan 2006 00:41:01 +0000 http://indianeconomy.org/2005/09/22/as-with-jobs-so-with-stocks/#comment-1832 I agree with Prashant ( Kothari ) that in every bull run each individual starts to rate himself and his "khabariya" as no less than Warren Buffet. But time and experience teaches me that these very local buffets of ours invariably exit in losses and then blame some scamster for their loss. Penny stocks and worthless stocks or over rated stocks are responsible for the losses most often. I urge investors to chase value and not value chase. If they shase value then value ultimately survives while if the value a chase then the chase will make then end in a garbage dump where one more dude will be dumped. Hot money has taken Indian Stocks to great heights and rags to riches stories are ones which attract the fresh blood to the jungle only to be ultimately hunted down by the lion. I am not a stock market hater but am a addict but just want to caution people that go for wealth creation and not for getting rich.

Every investor thinks she/ he's making money because they're the heir-apparents to Buffett. Of course, when the markets go down, it's someone else's fault. This sort of thinking is almost universal -- and more so in India, given that our markets are less transparent, and the investing public less informed. “Investors” have no problems when the market goes up, even if it’s because of these “manipulators”.
