Yes, money once a year is no big problem. If you compare dividend yield to "debt", which seems more stable and likely to continously deliver over 10-15 years? I feel "debt". What is your thought on this? Though your latest view has given a good new insight Basant jee!

Well i think we are going to grow from here... Reasons > Look at the reatail participation > Mutual funds have increased in numbers...domestic ones...that provides us lots of insualtion even if FIIS pull their money >Gorwing population wants fast buck.....particpation will improve... >COnsumption boom is here to stay..... >Average middle class earnings are increasing....
and many more...so i think every fall ina good stock is a buy...after all we all are looking at 10 to 20 years....so it is better than FD in banks...
and one more thing i do agreee with basantji....that keep pulling out cash and buy little property....dont cocnetrate on one thing.....

The huge opportunity for Indian household money to flow into the stock market |

Shares, Debentures and Mutual Funds |
Rs 29,008 crores |
4.9% |
Investment in small savings |
Rs 72, 364 crores |
12.3% |
Insurance |
Rs 83,340 crores |
14.2% |
Others:

Currency (8.8%)
Pension Funds (8%) |
Rs 124,959 crores |
21.23% |

Just look at how much money Indians pay for low income generating assets. Bank deposits and Social securities. – over the next few years as financial awareness increase and we start believing that the stock market is a lot more then a gamblers den this increased flow could create havoc in the markets.
Our sentiments have also been bruised by the scams of 1992 and 2000. This leads many of us to believe that the end in the markets is always bad. I have read in many of the books that talk about US markets during the 1930’s about how that particular generation developed apathy towards the market. Finally we should believe that just because the market goes down it is not wrong but why and how it goes down should be investigated before drawing conclusions.
In this connection SEBI and the exchanges have been doing a wonderful job and each of the steps they took were criticized whether it was dematerialization of shares or removing badla or introducing futures or the FM imposing turnover taxes!

Very true.... enormous untapped potential!
Maybe in 2010-11 u may have to keep a cap on TED memberships!? Or a fee based access perhaps? Likely that TV-18 & others PEs/Goldman would approach Basant jee for TED stake sale!

nice topic banant ji,i think splitting our wealth between realestate and stock will be a good idea and treat both investment in same mentality...i think we have to rename stock market as supermarket  ..so that we buy stocks in discount...traders are there in every market...gold,silver,realestate,bonds..we cant get opportunities without traders...in my view most of us are long term traders..investors own the company..i may be wrong with the last statement but its my view.in intelligent investor 5years is a minimum hold,we think 1years as long term and there is no capital gain for it.correct me if i am wrong

got this idea when i was trying to find how to save and invest in google..
Cutting down on household expenses can help you stick to your budget. Here are some ways to make every penny count:
*Save money on grocery bills by planning your meals ahead of time and using a grocery list. (PLANNING/STRATEGY FOR OUR INVESTMENT)
*Buy items in bulk at warehouse clubs and discount stores(BUYING IN BULK WHEN MARKET IS IN DISCOUNT)
*Save money on heating costs--lower the thermostat at night and while you're at work (SAVE MONEY ON BROKERAGE/OVER TRADING)

Just out of Curiosity....
Does anybody have any statistics about how many Indians are investing in Shares individually or thru Mutual Funds.
Comparing it the the number of people that are still not shareholders.
I wonder how many more Dhirubhais will India need to spread the equity cult
