UM ji,

Any comment on how to protect the capital in long run. It`s hot topic these days.

From moneylife- Investment advisors and bankers are almost always focussed on what returns you can earn from an investment, or how to beat inflation or save taxes. But did you know that most people lose big chunks of hard earned money because they are lured to invest in schemes geared to destroy wealth; or because they bought insurance or used credit cards without understanding the fine print. The fact is that dubious financial schemes are proliferating so much that the SEBI chairman recently suggested a separate regulator for them. Understand the basics of how to keep your money safe, it is the first step to smart investment, returns come next!

Once they goes into down cycle mode we conclude that they will stay there forever. Ups and down are part of it and nobody know how long the down cycle will last.
But yes these have beaten down too much. We should only put that money in stock market which we don`t need for 10 years. But if goes up then we should book profit and wait for down cycle.

Sorry I mean "Brake".

UM JI...Pedal Interest rate cycle and you will be cycling next 2yrs without break.

Sugar is supposed to get out of its bear market this year. After a glut year there should be shortage this year worldwide. But when is the question. Sugar prices meanwhile are falling with general commodities.

I wouldn`t pay much heed to decontrol. This was the easiest decision for the govt due to international prices being lower than in India. This does not give any advantage to Renuka. And if sugar becomes bullish again who knows, the next govt may reinstate controls. Sugar is a very sensitive commodity in India and can make or break elections.

Long term buying in sugar stocks is OK. When they come out of bearishness they do it explosively and all these stocks may multiply several times in price, especially truly beaten down ones like Bajaj and Balrampur. These companies have gone through many cycles and won`t stay down forever.

Pay attention and watch again. Resist labelling as "spiritual" etc. She is describing physiological processes that cause the right and left brain to process information differently. She might have become intense because she was describing a personal experience.

[By the way, Jill Bolte Taylor was selected among TIME`s 100 Most Influential People in the World in 2008 -- not even Nobel scientists get into that list easily. I do admit that what she is saying won`t click with most people because this is not what we want to hear. Listening to totally new things calls for suspending all preconceived notions, tendency to label things etc.]

I`ll be away for a while. Bye.

sir

i saw the video, it was too emotional for me, though she tried to point out did research in the decoding the right-left brain mystery. but she didnt talk much about it.

all this is psychology, and i think she was trying to make it spiritual!lol

is there any things as pseudo nationalist?????

sir

will watch the video and will tell then. i do believe all this is quite revolutionary. one of my very good frnd has just got into MIT for his phd.

he still looking for a topic, and this guys a mechie into nano technology. everything is dependent on human capital which us has developed so nice. that is why i said, if you can keep our kid happier than yourself, then u have grown, and this has to repeat.

PS im so much into eco this days, that i just keep talking about growth. lol

robert solow, mit again, who has developed growth models said, once you think about growth, its hard to think about anything else.

and what are ur thoughts on the same?

no promelmo! my revenue stream is not attached to no of stars i get.lol

Sorry. no intention to rate this message with single star. It was a mistake unknowingly while handling a touch device. Again sorry.

hello mister how are you? how do you find the budget. extra surcharge on wealth people was basically killing capitalism. women bank is as insane as a child or man banks. i didnt understand much here too. higher taxes on more inelastic goods are a good thing as it will sort of slow down consumptions which we dont need atleast not at this level.

i have had gambled at lot of avenues and i find stock markets as the most rational of them all. good day.

Sanjayji, ur 1000 percent right..No doubt abt ut statement.

a lot of grants have been allotted to construct toilets.
