Buy when the selling frenzy is gathering momentum, and sell so that the next buyer can make 10-15% profits.<br /><br />Easier said than done - but like all endeavours requiring skill, one improves with practice.Subhankarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13248068905130821262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7148222695370746347.post-46166421964116367242010-02-11T11:47:09.444+05:302010-02-11T11:47:09.444+05:30Hmmm...

Why worry?<br /><br />If the markets go into this "volatile" mood, there are only two interesting outcomes for me - It either breaks up or breaks down, eventually. <br /><br />If the market corrects, buy - based on valuation & available funds. If markets go up, sell - depending on valuations and/or needs & wants.<br /><br />I reduced my exposure to certain stocks on the way up. Yes! they did go up 5-10-15% after I sold. I also booked part profits in some of the shares bought in 2008 when they started running up like crazy. That seems to be one of the good ways to go about it. Though one could think about it differently in hindsight later on :)<br /><br />It's very hard to keep looking at the market and do this. So, I usually stay away, watch from the sidelines and check prices once or twice a week. Life is too vast and interesting to be tied down to the daily vagaries of the stock market :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14686273117038425857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7148222695370746347.post-84244785346597202352010-02-05T19:52:12.110+05:302010-02-05T19:52:12.110+05:30Sounds like a smart plan, Marshal.Sounds like a smart plan, Marshal.Subhankarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13248068905130821262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7148222695370746347.post-11754884111990669252010-02-05T11:53:59.358+05:302010-02-05T11:53:59.358+05:30I feel to stay invested in good stocks and buy on ...I feel to stay invested in good stocks and buy on dips....Marshal Nagpalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12103213967723270461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7148222695370746347.post-2382784850875276252010-02-05T09:26:03.187+05:302010-02-05T09:26:03.187+05:30Wish stock markets moved on the basis of mathemati...Wish stock markets moved on the basis of mathematics and logic! Reversion to mean does happen in the longer term.<br /><br />But in the short-term, sentiment, liquidity and global cues tend to influence market movements. <br /><br />We had a one-way rally from 7700 to 17800 without a serious correction. With FIIs pulling out, inflation rising and a tough budget looming on the horizon, a substantial correction could well be on the cards.<br /><br />Please remember that brokerages have vested interests in issuing bullish outlooks.Subhankarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13248068905130821262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7148222695370746347.post-12759450397633308742010-02-05T07:04:57.889+05:302010-02-05T07:04:57.889+05:30IDFC -SSKI report says "We maintain our 12-mo...IDFC -SSKI report says "We maintain our 12-month Sensex target at 20000<br />(14x FY11E core earnings and 15x earnings including value of<br />non-consolidated subsidiaries)."<br />So though I agree with you that the stock market will revert to the long term mean, what is the fact? Since 9 months results are out we should have a fairly good fix for the Sensex earnings for 2009-10. My guess is that it should be closer to 1100 amd then a 15% increase for 2010-11 takes it to 1265 times 15, then we should look at a figure closer to 18000 precluding any substantial fall from the current level in the short term.
