Not surprisingly whatever stocks were mentioned in yesterday's interview are up today. ATFL is up some 9% today but in the last 5 years it has barely been a three bagger. These sort of things happen quite frequently - gulliable investors buying stocks after hearing it from the Bull's mouth but with volumes of less then 10k I am not sure if this is indeed genuine serious buying.



People feel it is quite easy to make quick bucks just following the movements of big investors but they will soon realize that making money through stock market is not such an easy task i.e blindly copying others investments /portfolio without doing your own home work .

To achieve satisfactory investment results is easier than most people realize ; to achieve superior results is harder than it looks .

 RJ never ever gives the least clue about even trends let alone good current picks.He only talks about the past on specifics.Not that I am finding fault with him.
 Great to hear Shankar Sharma being optimistic about companies across sectors(not the frontline).

I raise that slogan to business models not to market patterns!


The way it's going that slogan needs to be applied to scams, bankruptcies, corporate scandals too.

So one shouldn't be surprised to see repeat of Enron, options backdating, Derivatives (Barings) etc..... in India

He rarely speaks about his stocks on Record but the way he spoke about Agro tech Foods yesterday surprized me.
Seems like some Hidden Motive behind the move and people falling prey to it ..................

No, I would not think that he had any bad intentions. Just that people want to get rich quick by watching TV!

Read somewhere about the Gann timelines: Time lines need to meet Price Lines. Price-line has done the needful. Time-line needs to meet it! Aso, 8-year market tops and/or market bottoms snychronize!

Dunno what a it means. Just read it off hand somewhere, when I was doing some reading on Gann.
The most important quality for an investor is temperament,not intellect.A temperament that neither derives great pleasure from being with the crowd nor against it
