@PrabhjotSingh That would have been a good time to buy, sure. But I didn't have any money, and knew even less than I know now, anyway. Which is still very little.
I've been trying to learn a little bit about finance this part year. But it's not the sort of thing one can master in a jiffy. Maybe in 5 years I'll have some idea of what is going on. 3 years, optimistically.
@FaheemMitha Yes. I had 250 shares. When it went below 200DMA I sell all but 35 shares. I don't know why 35 I didn't sell. This was in May last year when I knew that somehow I didn't sell 35 shares.
@FaheemMitha Valupickr is very good website. Chandra Gupta is very intelligent person, If I remeber name correctly.
@FaheemMitha Agreed. Google share price is case in point.
@FaheemMitha HDFC, Infy and Bajaj Finance are good companies, for example. There is no guarantee in stocks.
@PrabhjotSingh Oh, you were already familiar with it? You didn't mention it to me.
@PrabhjotSingh I meant Indian stocks, but it's true more generally, yes.
@PrabhjotSingh Well, they're big and stable, yes. But I don't know much about any of them. For example, I have little to no idea how any of them make their money.
It could be fraud, for all I know. And knowing India, it's not that unlikely.
@PrabhjotSingh I wasn't planning to sell any of these. For one thing, I incline towards holding in general. Also, since I know almost nothing, I'm regarding all this as a learning experience. I'll see how things go.
They seem to be the only people who document how dysfunctional the securities and financial markets in India are. Like frauds committed by brokers and financial advisers is something shocking.
