I believe in intelligent diversification.Buy any stock which after proper analysis seems a good prospect and at a reasonable price.FYI 90% of investors do not beat the index longterm so it would be better if investors put their money in an index tracking fund or buy all the stocks in the NSE!


The utimate goal of investing is to buy low sell high;if we re-write this core equation in psychology terms it becomes buy fear sell greed.

@Sheep. That comment about 90% of investors not beating long term index fund...where you get that from? I would like to read it so I can plan my own investments in 2010.
