BENEFIT FROM RECENT TURMOIL

Be fearful when others are greedy and be Greedy when others are fearful

-Warren Buffet.

All of us have read this but what does it really mean. And if u know it means that one should start accumulating stocks when others are afraid to invest, how will you go about it ? I will tell you how. Read On...

Past two weeks stock markets have fallen a lot. Everyone is saying this is the right time for investment. But in such a scenario one might be thinking, what if it falls more ? If i buy now and it falls more I would be a fool. So let me wait. And this is how people start bottom fishing. Bottom fishing means trying t find the real bottom, trying to find the exact downside level where the falling would stop. But no one can say where it will reverse from. Might also consolidate on lower levels for some time. These uncertanities are peculiar characterstics of a bear market. Recent studies have shown that we have faced bear markets every 8 years. 1992 was the Harsghad Mehta scam, 2000 was the blowout of the dot com bubble and Ketan Parekh scan. And now in 2008 there is this global meltdown. Typically bear markets occur every 8 years and last from 2
months to 28 months on an average.

We choose to benefit myself by this information this time. We choose to start investing in a few select companies in such times. Yes ! We start investing, but with a definitive plan. We start accumulating shares slowly and steadily. First step is to decide what amount you want to and you can afford to put in equity markets. This is a personal subject matter and one has to do his/her own risk assessment.

Now once decided, we divide our capital into 2 parts first, for example 70% and 30%. Out of the 70% we start accumulating shares using only 20 % capital of it. Means you will be using 15% of your original capital, and then ADD ON DIPS strategy. Now the original 30% you have kept aside is for the times when there is an expected fall either in the stock market or in the stock
you are accumulating. Remember very well that averaging always works in the favour of the investor and works against a trader.

Now with all this information we are ready to make investments with a proper plan. Still one question remains by and large which company to select out of those thousands. Well, I would suggest that also -

1. Larsen And Toubro
2. Future Capital holdings
3. Relaince Capital
4. ABAN offshore
5. TATA Steel
7. BHARTI Airtel
8. PRAJ Industries
9. NTPC
10. CAIRN India
11. GMR Infrastructure
12. GOLD ETF's

The list can continue and go to more than 75 stocks. Just a small homework before investing would help. After all its our hard earned money we are putting. One can safely start investing* in these companies with an Investment horizon of 3 years.

Power of Compounding - A real life example

How much can you make in 25+ years by just investing Rs.10,000 initially in any of financial instruments ?

Let us look at the real time example…

If you have subscribed in 100 shares of ________ company with a face value of Rs. 100 in 1980…

In 1981 company declared 1:1 bonus = you have 200 shares

In 1985 company declared 1:1 bonus = you have 400 shares

In 1986 company split the share to Rs. 10 = you have 4,000 shares

In 1987 company declared 1:1 bonus = you have 8,000 shares

In 1989 company declared 1:1 bonus = you have 16,000 shares

In 1992 company declared 1:1 bonus = you have 32,000 shares

In 1995 company declared 1:1 bonus = you have 64,000 shares

In 1997 company declared 1:2 bonus = you have 1,92,000 shares

In 1999 company split the share to Rs. 2 = you have 9,60,000 shares

In 2004 company declared 1:2 bonus = you have 28,80,000 shares

In 2005 company declared 1:1 bonus = you have 57,60,000 shares

At the end of 2005…

You have 57,60,000 shares of the company

Any guess about the company ? Its an Indian company

Any guess about the present valuation ?

The result of ‘Power of Compounding’

Your present valuation is about

Rs. 200 Cr.+ & The company is ‘WIPRO’

Other such examples…

CIPLA

Investment of Rs. 10,000 in 1979 will fetch Rs. 95 cr.+

INFOSYS

Investment of Rs. 10,000 in 1992 will fetch Rs. 1.5 cr.+

RANBAXY

Investment of Rs. 1000 in 1980 will fetch Rs. 1.9 cr.+

I want to Invest In Gold… How do I go about it?

Since ages Gold has been a commodity desired so much that it lead to wars and what not. Everyone knows this. Gold in terms of investment has been looked upon as a great impression. And in our country everyone understands the importance of it. But what if you want to Invest in it now? Would you buy coins from your local bank? Or would you buy from your friendly jeweler? Or would directly go to a commodity trader and start trading? Here are answers to all your questions.

Buying Coins from your local bank seems like a very easy job. But your cost price increases as you pay service taxes. Plus when you have physical delivery of that object extra precautions have to be taken from theft. When buying from your friendly jeweler you will have to pay for the making charges, charged for the casting and forging. While selling these are again unaccounted for. And if you think you can start by the way of commodity trading, you better be sure as market ups and downs and the Mark to Market funds would steal all the shine away. So then what’s the safest and the best way to start you would ask. Read on….

One can invest in Gold using the stock markets too. Yes the stock markets!!! There are a lot of companies listed in the stock markets who are in one way or other related to this sector. It could be anything like metals or a mining company or even an ETF. Now an ETF standing for Exchange Traded Fund is the most lucrative way of investing in Gold. Various ETF’s traded on NSE (National stock Exchange India) are Gold BeES, Kotak Gold, REL Gold, and UTI Gold. Ideally the value of one unit of any Gold ETF is equal to one gram of Gold. They are tradable like any other stock traded on the Indian National stock exchange. And with the soaring commodity prices one can start investing right away. One should start investing with at least 25 % of their capital and buy more on dips. On should invest with a time horizon of at least 2 years for getting good returns.
