Invest in Indian stock Markets the Happionaire way !
2008-04-24 08:36:00
2008 has not been too kind for stock market investors and traders. The Indian stock market has shed as much as 25% since the beginning of this year. Investors have lost money in tune of thousands of crores. I have been an investor in Indian markets since last couple of years and have seen the crash of May last year. However, the current situation seems to be far more worse as it is coupled with global downtrend in Economy. So what should investors do in such circumstances? Should they stay away from the markets or do they still have a chance of making money? I suggest you pick up a copy of "Invest the Happionaire way" book by Yogesh Chabria. I must admit that I have just skimmed through the pages, but what ever little I have read, it comes across as a fun and interesting way of creating wealth through the Indian stock markets.

European government bonds higher as equities fall into the red
2008-02-11 20:24:00
LONDON (Thomson Financial) - European government bonds were higher, tracking falls on equity markets on fresh write-off fears and as concerns about the global economic outlook intensified following the G7 meeting over the weekend. The tumble on share markets has been driven by more bad news from financial companies, with American International Group revealing that its auditors have questioned the company's internal controls over the valuation of credit default swap portfolio obligations.

Further bad news came from Standard Chartered PLC, which announced it is withdrawing plans to provide liquidity to its Whistlejacket Capital structured investment vehicle. Meanwhile, this weekend's communique from the G7 meeting in Tokyo only served to give further justification for financial markets to step ...

European govt bonds sharply lower as equities continue rally
2008-01-24 19:47:00
LONDON (Thomson Financial) - European government bonds remained sharply lower, pressured by a reversal in safe haven flows as equity markets continued to rally higher. European stock markets have staged a massive comeback today from the substantial losses suffered earlier this week, following a dramatic turnaround in the US last night, although Wall Street has struggled to sustain gains today. "Fundamentals have been put on the sidelines this week ... attention is very much focusing on the equity markets after the sell-off in safe haven gains that we'd seen in bonds from Monday," said Audrey Childe-Freeman, senior European economist at CIBC World Markets. She added that European bonds are also suffering from the diverging interest rate expectations in the US, where the Fed has been aggressively pushing them down, and the euro zone where the central bank is still reluctant to consider reductions at all. "Yield levels were not realistic or consistent with the outlook for inter...

2008-01-10 04:06:00
Gold hits record, copper soars as equities slide    GOLD stormed to a fresh record high and copper hit a two-month peak yesterday as investors sought to hedge against inflation or to find alternatives to weak equity markets. Spot gold hit a record US$891 an ounce, surpassing the previous high of US$881.10 reached on Tuesday, while London Metal Exchange copper futures rose to their highest in two months. Oil prices were also firm, moving back towards US$100 a barrel, as equity markets fell in Asia following a 1.9 per cent drop on Wall Street. ‘The speed of gold’s rise is very fast but the market is focusing on taking gold towards US$900 in the near term,’ said Mr Tatsuo Kageyama, an analyst at Kanetsu Asset Management in Tokyo. The strong debut of gold futures on the Shanghai Futures Exchange helped boost spot prices. The June futures contract hit its upper cap of 230.99 yuan, equivalent to around US$990 an ounce. That implies Chinese investors expect a rise in go...

Somebody once remarked that "risk is often lowest when it is most visible". Why do I have a niggling suspicion that a considerable dose of bad news has yet to surface and therefore not yet been discounted by stock prices? These are unusually treacherous times and any rally should, in general, be used to lighten holdings. And avoid hope, rather embrace the cold reality of a situation that has possibly not yet seen its darkest hour.

Although the magnitude of further stock market declines is difficult to gauge, it may take a while before investors? appetite for risk is revived.
