dear BSR,

Most of the FIIs havent made any money in Indian markets except those who entered some 4 or 5 years back.

One should keep in mind that, many hedge funds who entered in the last fiscal might have lost more money than the retail lot. In fact retail investors are sitting on notional losses where as many FIIs have realized the losses by selling stocks at very low levels compared to their buying price.

regards

Continuous fall in all cement companies share prices since last few days gave us enough indication that all is not well with these companies. They are losing their all support levels. Similarly, the fate of Laxmicotsyn may also fall in that category, if its present price fall is any indication. Otherwise also, all textile mills shares also equally down, though it was expected that depreciating rupee could help them but probably many of these companies might hv booked forex around 40/- for the current year with the result that they are not able to get the benefit of this depreciating rupee.
Infosys results should be good if not better as here I do not forsee any forex losses.

In one of your msg I read that you want senior boarders to speak good about market but market will move as it has to move irrespective of the msgs from all senior boarders. If bad days are ahead, they are and no amount of good msgs from any boarder could make them better. Just take the case of teledata. Last year nobody was prepared to accept the fact that this company was not worth investing. If u remember, I had posted a msg on or about 31st May 2007 when it was quoted around 65/-, that we should avoid making investment in this company as there were number of better companies available in the market. But I got in return a number of msgs asking me to substantiate my statement and therefore, I decided not to post any msg on teledata. Similarly, if we forsee that market weakness is likely to continue for a while, I think there is no harm that we accept this fact and we should not paint a rosy picture of the market, when actually we do not see that.
Thanks. I hv just given u my views as always. May be that I may differ with your views here.

Dear vkk ji,

I am shocked to see the first result that has rolled out today that of Prism cement.Their NP has fallen 71% on a y-o-y basis and 77% on q-o-q basis.I think many cos would come out with such results only.No wonder cement stocks are falling like nine pins.I do not know what Infosys is going to offer on 10th!.I think Lakshmicotsyn also would fail in the results going by how its price has been butchered

Regards,

Difficult to predict market direction

The world keeps changing every night and we come back with a completely fresh perspective - so much has changed since the markets closed last evening or yesterday afternoon. The Participatory-note (P-note) regulations have changed; the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has surprisingly cut cash reserve ratio (CRR), global markets continue to tumble though Asia is weathering it a little bit better this morning. So global turmoil, lots of policy changes - it will all go into the melting pot today, who knows what will win; policy action or global turmoil.

On global markets:
These are difficult times, unprecedented times in the global markets and therefore the kind of action that we are seeing is also quite unprecedented. Things are very fluid at this point in time. You do not know what the market will react to this morning, it could easily snap back because of the concerted regulatory action, which is happening or it could continue to drift down along with global markets. So it is a tough call.

We are seeing history unfold in front of our eyes. This is something that we do not see in a decade or a couple of decades, the kind of action that we are seeing in global markets and the way regulators across the world are forced to respond to it to at least keep the patient alive. There is absolutely history unfolding and therefore the less you take in terms of big directional calls in the market, the better because we have no clue of where the situation might land us in finally. It is tough times and absolutely historic times for financial markets around us.

For many markets, it is almost like the hemorrhaging right now?

It is and I suspect that will continue because this is not about small interest rate change and it is not about throwing a little bit money at the system or anything like that. We are probably hurtling towards the global recession not just the US recession at this point in time and the kind of economic distress, which might unfold over the next few quarters, is making everybody very nervous and justifiably so.

So right now you don’t want to get into that, okay inflation at 11.99 so we are fine, Cash reserve Ratio (CRR) down more 50-bps, so we are fine or to get extremely bearish between points and say now the market will go to 8,000 Sensex and the Dow will plunge to 5,000. None of us know what is going to happen. Could any of us have predicted the events that have unfolded in the last 4-5 weeks? The biggest analyst in the world couldn’t have seen of what is going to happen.

We are in unprecedented times and none of us know how things will shape up over the next few weeks and months. It is best to say I don’t understand what is going on; it’s beyond my comprehension completely. I don’t want to stick money into assets and all right now, if I could I would dig it under the ground and sit on it since I can’t do that I just need to be in cash at this point and not be brave trying to fool myself by thinking that I am the best analyst in the world who knows exactly how this thing will pan out. When in doubt just keep your money under the mattress that is always worked in history and that is going to work right now.

Asian Indices:

Asia is okay this morning it is not such a bad picture the Nikkei is down about 2%, Straits Times is actually up 1.5%, China is down 1.5%, so mixed bag but no great sell-off as you have seen across the US market things are little bit calmer out here though they started negatively, the most Asian markets seem to have come-off the morning’s lows.

It’s almost like a vortex situation everyday?

It is and the way things are now capitulating in the West is quite alarming because yesterday Europe was down 8-9% apiece. I do not remember in my memory when European markets fell 8-9% a day, Russia was down 19%. These are indices for large markets which are falling 18-19% a day; it’s not a single midcap stock. So it’s very scary, but the pace at which these markets are falling right now lead you to believe that for the near-term you are probably headed to another intermediate bottom because things do not fall 20% a day for very long. So its getting completely overdone right now, you are seeing the absolute peak of panic, it could last for a day or two sure or maybe in the next 48 hours you will probably see a spike back in the global markets. I know not the best morning to suggest that but it inevitably happens when market falls 7-8% a day.

Dow drops 200 points, as enthusiasm about the Fed`s plan to loosen up credit fades.

The End of Wall Street

Posted by : sambala

NEW YORK, Oct 7 (Reuters) - U.S. stocks briefly turned negative on Tuesday, weighed down by financial shares, as disappointment about the absence of coordinated rate cuts by central banks tempered optimism about a Federal Reserve plan to strengthen the commercial paper market.

The Dow Jones industrial average .DJI was down 41.50 points, or 0.42 percent, at 9,914.00. The Standard & Poor`s 500 Index .SPX was down 4.81 points, or 0.46 percent, at 1,052.08. The Nasdaq Composite Index .IXIC was down 13.13 points, or 0.70 percent, at 1,849.83.

Investors had bet that after Monday`s slide in global equity markets, central banks might mount a coordinated response to calm jittery investors.

Bank of America fell more than 16 percent a day after it announced a plan to raise as much as $10 billion to shore up its capital. The bank also slashed its dividend and posted a slide in quarterly profit in a surprise announcement.

Dear vam_aru,

That totally depend on those BIG PLAYers! Let us hope that FIIs do not go for MAD / Panic SELLing to generate that liquidity! Else we will that Capitulation behaviour coming from those FIIs! :) If those FIIs are ready to go for Capitulation behaviour, Let us use their Billion of DOllars to make Money for FREE! :) Index can be taken up lator on once their MAD SELLing is over! :)

Figure of 9800 on DOW corresponds to 3450 on Nifty!

So, let us hope for the best! Let us hope that those BIG PLAYers continue to PLAY the GAME Sensibly!

Gud luk & happy investing !:)

Another BS point: In the latest interview with RBI governer, it seems that those BS experts on CNBC tv were trying to put more pressure on RBI governor to reduce that INR ratio in the light of those FIIs SELLing! This way, those FIIs will make FREE money!

Now BS rumours through media are being spread that FM RBI or SEBI are not interested to save SENSEX from lower values for the benefits of investors!

Comeon.. if those FIIs will not stop their MAD SELLing, how can you expect SENSEX going into stable zone!

No wonder, those BS experts also got some kind of incentives! :)

Let us hope that DIRTY GAME through those BS experts do not get PLAYed. In the name of RETAIL investors, many ppl have tried to mislead! :) :)

Gud luk & happy investing! :)

Yes fmcgbites,

With those kind of SELLing from FIIs, RBI is doing a good job on this regard by ensuring that INR go up against USD! :)

If FIIs would like to continue for SELLing like this, then you are right one can expect INR to go above 50. That is the only way to ensure that those FIIs do not just loot money from retail investors here!

In future, if some more FIIS or organsiation will come, then similar kind of appreciation will happen.

Gud luk & happy investing! :)

Dear HLN,
This is my first post to you ever.
I have read many of your posts so far.What you have predicted so many months back has come exactly true today. You definitely deserve utmost praise for this prediction.Please accept my heartfelt congratulations. I can say you know your TA and EWT theory quite well.I suggest you to predict only indices levels in future with very very broad time indications ( + or - three to six months )and not commit on the exact time frame which is most difficult to predict as everyone knows.However even this cannot deflect anything away from the credit you richly deserve. I always feel we have to give credit where it is due and between you & Kalidas , MMB has been served well in the last one year.
Coming to the future , please keep up the good work and give us your broad view on when you expect the U turn in the markets.
Personally I have been investing continously since Oct / Nov 2007 and continue to buy even now. By nature and reasoning , I am a very LT investor who normally holds shares for 3 + years at the minimum.
To be frank I have managed to get a tremendous CAGR in the last ten years ( way way out of normal expectations) by asset swapping across asset classes and sectoral rotations inside the stock markets , long term front running in FII investible sectors.Even as a LT investor , I feel that picking shares at lower index levels can be definitely helpful as this will increase the volume of purchase as well giving a better of margin of safety in price.
I still believe sensex 22000 levels are possible in second half of 2009 and even started a thread to that effect sometime back.Your take will be useful.
regards,
wbuffett001
