My Learning so far from Indian Stock Market



Over last 3.5 years of my experience in the Investment Industry equity got the attention of investors for just 1 year actually real estate had stolen the show. Certainly 2014 was an exciting year for the Investment Industry. My experience in the market made me realized to some extent how market operates and how tezi creates excitement and brings people in stock market. People do more of talking and less of understanding when it comes to investment. Most of the frontline stories get popularity followed by news which plays a big role in grabbing people’s attention.

One more learning is that lot of people work on tips when it comes to investment so I thought why not share prospective on tips. TIPS! How people want tips! They crave not only to get them but to give them. There is greed involved, and vanity. It is very amusing, at times, to watch really intelligent people fish for them. And the tip-giver need not hesitate about the quality, for the tip-seeker is not really after good tips, but after any tip. If it makes good, fine! If it doesn't, better luck with the next. Since tip-seekers and tip-takers are invariably tip-passers, tip-broadcasting becomes a sort of endless chain advertising.


My key learning which I would share by this famous market saying that stock market is a place where wealth is transferred from Active investors to Passive. Being with the right people, buying right stocks and holding on to them has helped me in this volatile phase. Patience in the long term always pays and process of learning never stops.
