WINNING STROKES: THINK DIFFERENT:
India to announce Q4-08 and FY 08 GDP numbers tomorrow. The Q4-08 GDP is expected to be flat 8.2% against 8.4% in Q3-08. The
agricultural output, which accounts for about a fifth of the economy, may have grown as much as 3.5% in the fiscal year ended March 31, faster than an earlier estimate of 2.6%........Anyway, Ennore Coke Ltd hit the buyer freeze. The stock was near Rs.35 almost the whole before cooling down a bit or when the markets fell at the end of the day. I have today told the Paid Members what is the very recent developments in the company. Hence, buy Ennore Coke Ltd as much as possible before it starts hitting the Upper Circuits, since June, 2008 is nearing.....and.......THIS PART FOR PAID MEMBERS......This will be a repeat case of Southern Online Bio Technologies Ltd. There are some important developments in the company in the Power Front, which you might know by this Saturday: Southern Online Bio Technologies Ltd is hitting circuits after circuits. The Paid Group and Free Group members who have entered this counter might be very happy. But some might be saying, "Issssssssssshhh.....what I have done....!!!!......This is called missed opportunity and playing for the gallery or should I say overconfidence!!
Today the markets went for unnecessary correction on the fear of fuel price hike, when it should actually rise, as the government has at last tried to bail out Oil Marketing Companies---which is a very good news and should have been cheered from across India. But then there are some Fools who come on TV nicely attired (Some women/lady TV Anchors have started to show cleavages....Why??? Is it because to increase TRP or give a Western Look or......???!!!) and start confusing people with bullshits. I sometime think if I were in the TV Studios, I would have caught hold of the collars of these fools and threw them out from there. I do not know how these nonsenses get jobs and how they do business!! Yesterday Karvys' Ambarish Baliga said the market looks weak!! But why?? Because Crude Oil prices are rising!! Who told him that the crude will rise in the near future, when the world-wide demand for the "Liquid Gold" is fallling due to the removal of subsidies in some countries and due to price-shock resulting in shrinking demand. The rise in crude price was more due to speculation and not due to demand-supply gap as was mentioned by me many times. Moreover, speculative money cannot continously flow into oil futures, unless there are some sound intrinsic market's fundamentals to support such "mad actions". Oil prices fell today after the US Energy Department reported sharp and unexpected declines in crude oil and gasoline supplies last week, but said the drop in crude inventories was due to temporary delays in unloading oil tankers along the Gulf Coast......I am telling na....the Crude Prices cannot cross $135 per ba
rrel: Today the markets went down on good news which was portrayed as bad news by some vested interest groups on some TV Channels. I think manipulators have started abusing this platform for their own narrow gains; while some TV anchors asks them silly questions after questions as if they are some robots with a mechanical head above their shoulders----this is called Journalism or "Yellow Journalism???!!" Are some TV Journalists Dumb!!! It is to be understood that inflation effects if any due to fuel price hike (who knows what will be the inflation figures due other components in WPI, like food prices etc after 15 days and hence why carry this bag of inflation everytime due to one factor) will come after a long time so why sell on good news???!!!! I purchased to my heart's content at the end of the day. If there is any hike in fuel prices or cut in duties, the shares of Oil Companies will spike and the markets could go for a roll tomorrow. It is win-win situation for Southern Online Bio Technologies Ltd who are already selling Bio Diesel at a PROFIT. This will be a Boon for them and the profits for June, 2008 quarter could soar..... Cheers!!!

Cheers!!!My final views on tomorrow's markets based no Global Factors, will be given to the Paid Groups in tomorrow's morning mail, where some day trading calls will also be given: My Quickie Call Sandur Manganese Ltd hit the buyer freeze before cooling down a bit: Envair Electronics Ltd hit another buyer freeze: One can now go for that Chemical Company, whose name starts with Ind.......Bo........as the price of chemicals could rise in the international markets:
