It has been said that…..
“We Don’t Have To Be Wealthy To Be
An Investor…But…
My curiosity towards financial
market triggered me searching the various terminology of financial market I
started going through the daily news paper like “The Economic Times” and weekly paper “The wealth” and various websites like moneycontrol.com , marketwatch.com etc... Fortunately by the end fourth semester exam of MBA we four friend planned
to start franchisee of Stock broking “Angel Broking ltd.” In Mumbai….now this
is infant phase of our business and we are on the way to the world of Stock
market.
Now we are at initial phase and I can realize that the world of trading in many people's eyes is very complicated; especially small and new investors can easily become confused by the behavior of the financial market. We often know when to enter the market, but do not know when to exit. Some time we are confused about where to place the stop loss and when exactly to book the profit. Our emotional decisions triggered by market volatility and created by market data or events lead to panic and fear. Year on year, many of us are puzzled by the many contradiction in the market .why do stocks continue to trend after you book profits? And why at times, the market reverses when you are looking for a bigger run? How can you identify the market trend, strategy, reality and significant price levels for the day? Some time charts further add to the chaos as they do not give us the complete picture, hence we cannot correctly analyse the trend of the market, which leads to more losses, combined with the competition provided by big investors, generating and sustaining profits was incredibly difficult.
Now here question arises that how to avoid the risk factor and make profit with low level of risk?? A solution and that is research and keeping the track record of the stocks. Yes it is the research by which we can identify the actual trend of the market. Here research means keeping the track record of companies overall performance which includes the various financial data. Any news related to the concern company have high impact on the demand and supply of the share which determine the price movement, Supply and demand in stock market is driven by various factors which affect the price of stocks. Due to the globalization the impact of international financial market is normal phenomena to developing country like India and Nepal. As the 85% of trade happens through the dollar hence US market also do have high impact on our country. Besides EU and US market country like Saudi Arab, Russia, and Iran…etc which are rich in oil production also have great impact on our financial market.
Indian market is largely affected
by the US market and European markets...any changes in economic structure in
these markets do affect our market…
NO to investment...five typical reasons
1. Shares
are too risky
2. I
can't invest just now
3. I
wouldn't know where to start
4. I
don’t have enough money to invest
5. It’s
not the right time I will wait for the market to fall /rise
Now this also typical investor behavior age wise

WARREN
BUFFETT….Investment Guru
Yes he is the man who made an enormous fortune from
astute investments, particularly through his company Berkshire Hathaway, of
which he is the largest shareholder and CEO.
Berkshire Hathaway has about $2
billion in holdings.
With an estimated net worth of
about $46 billion, the 79-year-old Buffett, is often called the 'Sage of
Omaha'.
As a child, Buffett was a paper
boy for the Washington Post and
attempted to cover more than one route at the same time. Showing a spontaneous
talent for making money, Buffett also started earning that early by collecting
and selling lost golf balls.
He even started
playing the stock market with one of his sisters at 11. At 12, he was betting
on horses and by high school he started a business (pinball machines) with a
friend, which earned him $50 a week.
Not only did he own a business by
the time he graduated, he also had bought himself 40 acres of farmland in
Nebraska.
Buffett was strongly influenced
by economist Benjamin Graham's theory that it is wise to look for stocks of
companies which are undervalued as they will probably prosper with a little
time.
Buffett started his investment
company, the Buffett Partnership, at 25, using $5,000 of his own funds and
collecting $100,000 from friends and family. One of the smartest moves made by
Buffett's company at that time was to invest in American Express.
In June 2006, Buffett made a
commitment to give away his fortune to charity, with 85 per cent of it ($30
billion) going to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. Buffett's donation was
the largest act of charitable giving in the world's history.
Hence the moral of the story is there exists a
need for a regular investment habit, throughout the Various Life Stages of an
Investor…THE SECRET TO BECOMING WEALTHY
“You Don’t
Have To Be Wealthy To Be An Investor …But… You Have To Be An Investor To
Be Wealthy.” JJ
So, what’s going in
your mind?
If you want to be a successful
stock market investor, you should think about buying pieces of "good"
company at "bargain" prices.
Yes, that sounds simple, but if
you actually could find a good company at a bargain price, wouldn't it make
sense to buy it?
Doesn't that sound like an
investment strategy that should work?
The only problem is figuring out
what's a "good" company?
Well, a "good" company
is a company that can earn a high return on capital.
ROI......?? It's a pretty simple
concept really........
