risks we as newcomers need to be well informed about. Our brokers may never tell us the real threats. sk is our hope,our refuge.

No amount of words may change the truth

Many brokers behave like insurance agents - any time you want to buy or sell something,they tell you you've made the right decision. That's why its so important to do your own homework.

Did anyone read Sunny Bindra's article in the last Sunday Nation?
Nothing is real unless it can be named; nothing has value unless it can be sold; money is worthless unless you spend it.

There are no disadvantages of investing in stocks in you are financially smart!Always updated with business news and always reading about stocks market and money market. If you happen to buy a stock and it goes down,dont sell! Wait! stocks goes down and goes up everytime,never up always. I happened to have made serious profits and serious losses in the stocks market.

Please learn to absorb losses before enjoying the profits. Dont always expect profits,for losses might just as well come you way.

I for example bought eveready when it was 5.6bob some months ago. Then,the day after,the CEO,Mr Smith,announced a 91% profit losses. The share went to 3.85bob,and I 'lost'( I would have lost,had I sold,but I didnt SELL). Some weeks later,news had it that China Batteries would be taxed as they get to the country. The share rose to 7.2bob and then sold.

Also be very carefull,some companies drop in prices till they reach 0/= like Enron,so when the stock you have invested in keeps going down! Research as to whether its going under and take your losses. If it cant get under,wait! Its not always dark. Light will shine at the end of the tunnel.


Wisdom is supreme; therefore get wisdom. Though it cost all you have,get understanding

The point is never take the brokers advice as final without having done your research. Some of the customer service staff are inexperienced and will mislead you.
