Hi All,
IF you can't / dont want to / chose not to, understand it, select any other asset classes which can match it....
One of the famous rules for investing by Warren Buffet is, Dont invest in something you dont understand.... So follow that rule for equities as well...
As expected, after an anticipated sell off in markets..... posts started floating for calling it an end of equities, busting of equity market bubble, so on and so forth.
This post is for all those who are calling it this way, please be aware ....

This post is for all those who are calling it this way, please be aware ....
- In a single year of 2008, markets have fallen by whopping 61% (in that case, current fall is just 10%)
- #Sensex fell from 21000 to 8000 and Nifty fell from 6300 to 2250 in less than 10 months
- The same indices, are now trading at (in spite of the recent so called Bloodbath or Carnage) near 10400 (Nifty) and 33700 (Sensex)
- Which is an absolute return of around 60%
- Moreover, those who BELIEVED in and invested when the markets went lower by 60%, the absolute returns on an average are more than 100% in less than 9 years
- This translates in to a per annum growth rate of 18% (against < 10% in all orthodox asset classes like LIC, FDs, PPF, etc)
So simple advise to those who are creating this due to sheers lack of knowledge / awareness, please feel free to select any other asset which you understand and which can beat inflation consistently and avoid Equity markets....
And coming to traders...
The informed ones are already short and booking profits now...
Cheers
