Such times will always be there. Its just about keeping oneself sane as well as solvent that is required. |
16 times in 6 years after the fall means we are talking of a CAGR of 58% even when the sensex falls 65% post the peak.
If that can be achieved again I can contemplate philanthropy

TED is a big, interesting and interactive book with several accomplished authors!
I'm sure many people think that way.

Basant Ji, I think you should see the next 6-7 yrs from now.
After this huge huge crash since 1930's I think the next bull run
(whenever it starts) would be the best one you have gone in your life.
I don't like to speculate but I surely think I know about this.
Just see the DOW JONES when it fell in 1930 and how strongly it came back.
I also think the mother of all bull runs is yet to come (as says RJ).

I'd be happy to hug the mother of all bul markets but for the moment we are seeing the grandmother of all bear markets!!!
I remain an optimist and fully invested.
