Today is the RBI meet on deciding the monetary policy. Market expectations is that RBI will hike the repo rate by 25 bps. Hence that is to be considered as already discounted.

Golden Queries - Answered

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.

Options Exclusive

Options trade based on Investments Ideas

Call Options

As we were bullish I decided to do a paper/demo trade based on Call options on these scrips, like I always suggest. So the day I suggested to buy Infosys and NTPC I also bought Call options.

Infosys 1800 Call - Was trading at 61, averaged at 40 again. So I was having 2 Calls at a rate of 50. And in next 2-3 days It did a high of 108. 100 % Returns.

NTPC 170 Call - Was trading at 2.50. It did around 4.25 and next day 4.70.
Similar type of returns.

Conclusion - We will be having more stocks based options calls in coming days

Investment Ideas - A follow up

Infosys Technologies

INFOSYS chart is updated in the blog.

We generated a buy call at 1755 Rs. It did a high of 1850, almost 100 Rs up from our buying price. It has given a downward breakout today with good volumes. Hope this is a false breakout.

As the stock got battered down due to bad global ques and meltdown in a few sectors. Lets see what happens next.

NTPC

NTPC gave a whopping 10 % returns after our recommendation. Was given at 153-154 levels and it did 170 after that. Although NTPC also got battered, we are still bullish.

Rising Crude prices and the reports being published in news papers everyday, saying Crude soon to touch $ 180 and $ 200 levels have made an impact on everyone’s mind. I am just presenting in front of you a comparative study. Please go through it and write your comments.

Country	1 Litre Petrol in $	1 Litre Petrol in Rs.
Turkey	2.68	113.30
Norway(Oslo)	2.65	112.00
United Kingdom	2.26	95.50

Prices of petrol as compared to some other commonly available and used liquids in daily life.

COKE 330 ml Rs.20 = Rs.61 per litre

SAVLON antiseptic 100 ml Rs.20 = Rs.200 per litre

Evian water 500 ml Rs. 330 = Rs. 660 per litre Rs. 500 that’s a whopping for a litre of WATER???!!!

And interestingly consumers don't even know the source. Evian spelled backwards is Naive.

Kores whiteout 15 ml Rs. 15 = Rs. 1000 per litre

Cup of coffee at any decent business hotel 150 ml Rs. 175 = Rs. 1167 per litre

Old Spice after shave lotion 100 ml Rs. 175 = Rs. 1750 per litre
