Don't Miss The 98% Of The Story!!!

Obviously you don’t have to be able to predict the market to make money in stocks or else no one would have ever made any money in it, some of top investors sat right through some of the most terrible drops if they would have known earlier they would have raised the warning signal and would have switched their portfolio to safer investments.

Every year I talk to the executives of a hundred companies and I can’t avoid hearing from the various gold bugs, interest rates disciples and fiscal mystics quoted in the newspapers. Thousand of experts study overbought indicators, oversold indicators, Put-call ratios, RBI policy, foreign investment, the movement of constellations through the heavens and they can’t predict market with any useful consistency, any more than the gizzard squeezers could tell the Roman emperors when the Huns would attack.

Although in some way the stock market is related to the general economy, one way that people try to outguess the market is to predict inflation and recessions, booms and busts, and the direction of interest rates. True, there might be a correlation between interest rates and the stock market but who can tell interest rate with any bankable regularity?

So we come to the same question again when to buy stocks? The answer to this is ANYTIME, you find a good company with growth potential and strong fundamentals. Let me take you to an analysis where if you have not thought market to be overvalued, you would have been a millionaire by now.

Look at the chart below of Ajanta Pharma Ltd. If you would have invested in the stock before the depression and hold it till the market recovered it would have turned out to be 2 bagger for you within 2 years.

Even if you would have invested in the stock when almost all analyst in Dalal Street thinking Nifty to be overvalued 6800 it would have turned out to be 3 bagger for you within a years time.

Let’s look into another stock Eicher Motors Ltd. Where if you would have invested in April 2007 it would have turned out to be a 67 bagger by now an investment of 1 lakh would have given you 68.67 Lakhs in just 7 years and if you would have invested in the idea at the peak price of Yr’2000 when there was an IT boom an investment of 1 lakh would have given you 2.5 Crores in just 15 years.

The bottom line is investing in stocks should be specific to a company fundamentals irrespective of the market situation because you will never know when the bubble will bust and there will be another great depression. So, DON’T you miss the 98% of the story.
