Stocks To Keep A Close Eye On

[saivenkat]

Guys, Coal India reported results below expectations. I think we get this stock at 300. Lets see what SG says.

GOOD IDEA! But, let's reduce the timeframe to 1 year. That way the list will be relevant to the majority of members here. 5 years is a little too long and also I think it is very difficult to predict what will happen after 1 year let alone 5 years.

Even reducing the TF to one year is also a good suggestion..

Yes.i agree with you traderman..I have fixed in my mind to buy COALINDIA only when it reaches 250-275 levels..

saiVenkat, Very good thought. I am one of those waiting in sidelines to buy bluechip stocks like SBI,Tata Motors, Hero Honda, Infy etc. The problem with the jokers that appear on various tv channels is that they lead us a rosy path.

Dear Viks, According to me, those so called professional analysts who blabber in TV's make statements ..about markets.. what comes to their mind.. and we people here are not "Analysts by proffession" so we make a sincere attempt to make analysis of stocks and take decision with the help of Gurus here, who make selfless service.

There std line is "Growth story of India is intact" after every dip. I want to get into these stocks as close as possible to their bottom price (actually we all do )

Let me take a first shot and raise these question...
1. What is a good price to buy SBI , HDFC , L&T and Infosys?
2. Is this right time to enter stock market or is the sensex expected to fall more towards the end of the year.
3. Among mid-caps, what should be our focus area.
4. Out of my total savings in bank accounts, How much should I be investing in Stock market in percentage terms.
5. Have banking stocks reached their peak performance for current rally and there is downhill journey for them.
6. Which sectors should I come out of.
Thanks, Viks

Exactly you also reflected what was in my mind, as the questions above.. but i wonder who is to answer for these..

saiVenkat / Viks,

I think u are at a wrong place. This is traderje.com and not investorji.com

just kidding.

1) This is definetely not the right time to enter stock market for Investment. Market has run a lot in last cpl of months and for long term we must wait for 10-15% correction.

2) Dont put more than 40-50% of your savings in stock market as we never know when 2008 like situation will come. I feel there are lot of problems in West(US and Europe) and they will face lot of problem in years to come.
US economy can go for long term bear mode like Japan. Many countries in Europe are having serious debt problems.


Out of this 50% , 30-35% should be investment and 20 % Trading. If you are successfull in trading for 1-2 years then you can increase your share in trading but this is VERY difficult.

Most people loose in trading even if they work really hard.

Most people gain in investing even if they work very less.

Trading should be done with 10-20% of your portfolio only.

3) For investment only focus on FMCG/Pharma/Banks/Education/Agricultue/Auto.

4) Keep big distance from Reality and Commodity stocks for investment except Gold/Silver.

Mostly people can identify easily the sectors to invest with, but to narrow down it to selecting the stocks from the sectors selected requires expertise.
So IMO, it better to select the scrips in each sector, and then a wide range of analysis should be fitted in with both TA and FA.

If its with banks,whether its PSU or private banks?

If PSU, what stock to take?
If private banks, then what stock to consider?

similarly the question holds for all areas suggested? It is in the mind set, i have raised this topic here.
I request all friends here to contribute their opinion, so that it will benefit all of us.

Regards
Saivenkat

As per SavantGarde's recommendations in a post, I have bought half quantity of Vijaya Bank at 100 and Coal India at 310.

 

[prst]

squared off my nifty PE at 130...

People are reporting that CEO of LIC has been arrested. Very interesting developments. This might be the trigger to push the Nifty down to 5500 levels.... One of the many reasons why I stay away from Finance related companies(other than banks) like insurance, micro-finance, stock broking companies......

 

[gauharjk]

I had bought 100 Vijayabank @ 102 a few days ago. Sold half quantity @ 104.30 today. Wish I had sold all of it.

Also, bought 100 Balrampur Chini @ 77

Still hold...
3iInfotech @ 71
HCC @ 66.50
AmbujaCem @ 146.50

Markets keep crashing... I am stuck...

Other banks officials involved in the LIC scam are from Bank of India, Central Bank and PNB.

Dear Gauhar,

I can not understand your way of trading... You have become kinda compulsive trader of late...When even the big bull like SG is telling us that the market may go further down, how come you are still going long in these stocks!!! You should have waited on the sidelines for SG's advices to grab all the undervalued stocks at the appropriate time... If you follow this thread, you will find SG had advised to take 3i at a very low level last year which reached 104-105 and his final sell call on this stock came around 75-80 almost a year back... Though the master will be back by tonight or tomorrow, I would request you to sell your holdings at a minor profit/loss rather than making them another Titan-ic trade:thumb:...

I think COALindia has not performed that well after it debut, any way it is
too early to say about this kid.

Im more worried about Vijaya Bank now I'm assuming banks will tumble tomorrow following this news.

 

[mindmithun]

Banking was a bubble to burst.. later or sooner.. there was nothing to be bullish I been saying for a while in most of my post here.. let biggies play.. they don't get hurt its us.. and that is the reason I say.. control thy self, watch them tumble and laugh last...
