Indian Stock Market

Before you read my full message below, my PERSONAL FEELING is: FOR ME (KKP) TO MAKE 40-50% PER YEAR, I HAVE TO GIVE ISGers BACK MY TIME, EFFORT AND ENERGY. IT IS JUST LIKE A JOB OR BUSINESS. IF YOU GIVE, YOU GET. A SIMPLE LAW OF THIS WORLD!
Guys here are my 2 cents, and NOT everyone is going to agree, but instead of obstacles, I am trying to show the Path and the Solution:
*1. Students:* You are learning with no money to invest. Read, understand, learn, and get ready to invest. Give back to ISG in a few years. For now, you can choose to be a listener only. This is the only category that has this choice!
*2. Newbies and Novices: * You are in the work force, and have taken suggestions from various places. It is TIME for you to tell us what you are investing in, why you are investing in it, and what is it that you are trying to get out of it. Follow your stocks, hunt for public and non-public stories, summarize those for ISG. The non-public stories from your own town, your own broker, and interpretation from reports is what we need. Do not just post the entire report from brokers. This is your level of participation, and there is no excuse for not doing this, even if it is a couple of messages per month.
*3. Intermediaries: *You have graduated and opinionated as to what you should/want to invest and what you should have avoided. Do everything that you did when you were in category 2 plus some more. What more? You made money on some, but you lost money on others. Now, it is time for you to start voicing your ‘favorites’ and ‘dislikes’ by voicing your opinion on ISG so that ISGers can go ‘hmmmmm’, or ‘answer your concerns’. Also, you must have invested even more money, and are working for a business or enterprise. Share ideas from your industry/business. This level of participation will help everyone, and we can tap into your expertise. Again, no excuse for not investing more time to ISG and creating/replying.
*4. Seasoned Investors:* Do everything in 2 and 3, and now, start making recommendations BOLDLY. What you bought, what you sold, why, when, and at what price. Ashokji started doing this in the last 6 months, and he is doing great. This is something that helps you become a Senior over time. Again, no excuse for not putting in a few messages per month, and most seasoned investors like Bhushanji, Sharestarji, Sureshji, ERji, Eswarji and many others are already doing it.
*5. Experts:* Start to be called a Senior by doing things for others. This is an individual who selects, analyzes, makes money more of the time, and generates/follows strategies besides just buying/selling stocks.
*6. Almost Walking on Water: *Kukkuji, ValueInvestorji, Bhusanji, Guru, Sharestarji, ZeeNutji and MANY others who have large portfolios, have been investing in India for a long time, understand politics, get details below the surface, make phone calls to management, talk to mutual fund managers, and can explain the true impacts. These folks ‘connect the dots for us’ Participate and share openly.
Now, you can be one of these 6, or create a category called number 7 called “I just do not want to share in this open group”. Your call. I feel that no one on ISG has any excuse not to participate cause ‘you do have something to share’. This site cannot be Fee based Stock Recommendation Service. It can be ONLY AS GOOD AS EACH OF US MAKE IT. IT CAN BE AS LONELY AS EACH OF US MAKE IT (80-20 can become 20-80 quickly).
I will leave you with one thought of what would happen IF:
*”….Imagine if Top 10 Senior Recommendors form a Private Group and Do No Participate on ISG….”*
Sorry, if this does not agree with your thinking, and it is too bottom-line oriented. I am just speaking my mind here. Hope I have shown the path, a solution for each of the readers, and maybe a version of this can become the final outcome. As many others like ZeeNutji said, the Moderators will have the final word.
