Is it possible to find out when he got into each of these stocks and roughly at what price? Recently I read an interview he had given where he said he got into Praj at a price of about Rs.100 when it had already risen from Rs. 10 to Rs. 100 in one year - already a ten bagger. He still saw value in it and invested at a price of Rs. 100. Whether WB or RJ, it will give lesser mortals like me some comfort to know the price at which he got into any particular stock. May be then I will have the conviction ( I should actually say courage ) to follow him.

Take a 5 year view and Agrotech has been a rank underperformer. It would need to go up some 2.5 times to match the sensex and about 5 times to match RJ's portfoliuo from these levels.
His investment is not that important as much as the extent of that investment.

what about VICEROY HOTELS has also been an underperformer, room rates in hyderabad have reached their peak and viceroy is not a mkt leader.any idea on this one
understanding both the power of compound return and the difficulty getting it is the heart and soul of understanding a lot of things

A confirmed source tells me that RJ is out of the market and is presently looking after his health at the Jindal health centre somewhere near Bangalore. I cannot divulge the name but the sorce says that at these levels RJ is cautious though not bearish.
