Basantji,
Today I came out of my shell liquidated my FD and paid for the sins I had commited as the prospect of repaying the capital on sale of stocks has become a distant dream.Also this Debt was having a Phyco effect on me and not allowing any new purchase.As i Understand this is the time to go for the good stocks available at right prices.

Also I was wondering if this is the right time to invest the interest I was paying a month about 40k in Franklin Bluechip fund through the SIP route.


If you want to go for mutual funds I guess Nifty Bees or some other Index fund should be a better option. Fellow members, what's your opinion?

Abhishek.

in 1992 index at roughly 4000 Harshad Mehta Time in 2002-2003 index was below 3500. It means index is given nothing in almost 10 year. So I recommand go stock specific.
if you consider the composition of the index of 1992 now there is a huge difference. It is my feeling if index commety do not changde the composition of the index it is still at around 4000 mark

With the Nifty or Sensex index funds (and with most large cap funds), you'll become owner of Ambani shares whether you like it or not Angry.

A long time back Udyan babu had commented 'its time to at least sell the furniture and get into the stocks if not the house' I wonder what his thoughts are for next few sessions.
Now brokerages are offering new products rather than leverage on the shares in the bull market it was some times 400%. Now they offer a 6% guranted return by using the arbitrage available on NSE and Bse for just parking ones portfolio with them No Loss/No Share sale guranteed.

I guess when one is fully invested and does not want to liqidate for another mouth watering opportunity he has to go in for the leveraged route for this.
Now when TCSEr talks about IPO financing it is all about leveraging and then selling on listing as even the margin put up is leveraged .Also it is my guess and firm opinion that the listing gain is actualy a factor of the interest component build into the share cost during the ipo .This depends on the level of oversubscription , interest and margin that the HNI puts up.

Basantji,
 
I find this difficult to understand. Does he mean his trading portfolio where he paid about a third to half of notional value as margin and rest is leverage, which results in 2 to 3 times leverage on his capital? or something else? I think he is talking only about his trading portfolio here and not his long term investments.
