Sugar prices up 20%: Time for govt to step in?

Posted by : novice1000

hi maam,

Had anybody invested in Bharti when it was hovering around 30 to 50 levels in the second half 2003( that was the time when bharti started seeing its subscriber base going up dramatically),i am sure he/she would have started laughing at their banks.

So why to worry about dividends when there has been such a decent appreication in capital....

regards

HI,
Pls read this
"The Next Big Bubble to Burst
By Dr. Steve Sjuggerud
August 26, 2008

Mrs. Watanabe is about to get burned.

She's in a situation like the Miami condo "flipper" who found himself with the maximum amount of debt at precisely the wrong time a few summers ago. Or the dot-com day trader who was trading stocks on margin back in 2000 and got slaughtered.

It will end badly, without a doubt. The only question is when. Here's the story...
In Japan, housewives handle the money. In the past, they\'ve been conservative. They haven't bought stocks or real estate... and that's actually been the right call in Japan. But now they're in trouble...



It all started innocuously enough. Bank accounts in Japan pay next to no interest. But in Australia, bank accounts earn 6% interest. Japan's housewives understood that Australia's a fairly safe place to stash your money. So they started putting their money in Australian bank accounts.

This simple strategy really paid off.

Not only did they earn a lot more interest... the Australian dollar soared versus the Japanese yen, nearly doubling from 2000 to 2007. So when the Japanese housewives converted their money back into yen, the profits were huge!

From late 2000 to mid 2007, it was easy money... The yen/Aussie trendline was nearly a straight shot – you couldn't lose.

Again, the Japanese housewives are typically conservative. But after seven years of near-uninterrupted success, they decided simply tripling their money wasn't enough...

So their brokers told them about leverage.

"Mrs. Watanabe" (the typical Japanese housewife, like "Mrs. Smith" in the States) started buying Australian dollars on margin... In other words, she now borrows money to make this trade.

"How can I go wrong?" she thinks. She's borrowing in Japan at essentially a 0% interest rate and investing in Australia, earning over 7% today. It all works out great... as long as the Aussie dollar keeps getting stronger versus the yen.

But this is the problem...

When she first entered the trade at the beginning of this decade, it was a good trade. The yen was severely overvalued, and the Aussie dollar was cheap. But those days are gone. Now, the yen is the cheapest major currency in the world. And up until recently, the Aussie dollar was as expensive as it's ever been.

Meanwhile, Mrs. Watanabe is in deep... Advertisements for currency trading margin accounts on Tokyo's subway lines offer low fees, tight spreads, and get this – leverage as much as 200 times the down payment. And the number of these "forex" accounts held in Japan nearly doubled last year, increasing 92%!

The trade appears to have ended last summer. Since then, the yen has been creeping up against the Aussie dollar. But Mrs. Watanabe isn't pulling back. Instead, she has decided to take on more risk – she's now buying what are known as "Uridashi bonds."

Companies in countries other than Japan issue Uridashi bonds... which are simply foreign bonds sold to Japanese investors. So now, instead of putting money in the bank in safe countries like Australia, she's buying bonds in Africa, Brazil, and Turkey.

I'm not joking! Mrs. Watanabes across Japan have snapped up an astounding $650+ million worth of South African rand-denominated Uridashi bonds this year.

What can go wrong? Oh, boy... Mrs. Watanabe is blinded by the interest rate – she can earn double-digit interest rates in these wild places. So the normally prudent Mrs. Watanabe is now overleveraged... in risky investments... at precisely the wrong time!

Mrs. Watanabe – and her kind – will be the next bubble to burst.

As the yen continues to inch up, all these Japanese housewives will have to close out their margin accounts, selling billions of Aussie dollars and other Uridashi currencies. As the billions of dollars of leverage unwind, the Japanese yen could soar – particularly against the "high-yield" currencies.


The Best Speculation in the World Right Now
How to Profit from Europe's Folly

Right now, Mrs. Watanabe is selling something super cheap (the yen) to buy something super expensive, like the Aussie dollar. And she's borrowing money to do it.

It is the next bubble. And it will end badly.

Good investing,...

If Tatas exit Singur, other inv may retreat too: Experts

Posted by : MMB Messenger

Ratan Tata seems to be running out of patience and West Bengal Chief Minister seems to be fighting a losing battle. If Tata Motors chooses to exit, will it set a precedent for other investors? Minister of State for Industry, Ashwani Kumar said that seeing the example of Tatas, other industry and investors will run out of patience with India.

26 Aug 2008 15:19

I wish to ask some questions to Mr TATA.
Q1. Why TaTa has set up industry in a disputed land? What the corporate governance ethics says in this regard?
Q2. Why Tata has chosen highly fertile/irrigated-Ganga basin land when large non-agricultural lands are available in almost all the district of WB?
q3 Why Tata wants to set up ancillary industries in Singur itself when large number of ancillary industries of nearby town at Howrah are laying jobless/sick after almost collapse of Hindustan Motors.
Q4, Why Tata had not setup any Industry in WB in last 60 years of Independence when the people of WB had suffered most & scarified highest for the AJADI of India due to partition.

The sacrifice of 1000 acre of irrigated land in a state of lowest par capita land is itself is crime and anti national act..
Hope, the above questions will be answered by Mr. TATA

The views of the minister and of the CII are clearly biased towards businesses. However this is not an accurate representation of the picture. The situation is no longer one in which the dumb locals (farmers) lack the ability to recognize that the world around them is changing and that development is essential for the country and in their interest. In fact its the other way round. Government and enterprises have yet to realize that people are now more aware, connected and have a sense how these so called \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\`in public interest\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\` projects eventually pan out. That free enterprise does not mean equal opportunity for all. And that these collaborative and active protests, though regrettably violent are their only tool to counter the lobbying by businesses and corruption in government. Until industry realizes this and begins a more inclusive, transparent and democratic approach. the problems will keep increasing - especially with the economic downturn well on the way....
