Sloka Of Buffet.


Fear when others are greedy,

Be greedy when others are in fear.

This Buffet’s successful mantra has  launched him in  prosperity unimaginable.

He is a competent investor. He is a shrewd businessman with a keen insight.

The recession has not harmed him. Instead has made him powerful. When the market was reeling under pressure, he bravely took a move that baffled serious analysts and broking firms.

His subscription to Goldman Sachs  perpetual preferred stock triggered 6% profit to his investment arm Berkshire . A daring astute action has paid  back.

Procrastination and indecisiveness are the two devilish imps that rob growth and credibilty.Buffet , at the age of 80 , is strong in physic and robust in prosperity. His profits would have dwindled by the 2008 recession, but has not eaten up his capital.

Erosion of capital is dangerous to business. A watchful eye and a calculative mind are the prerogative qualities that enable us to our targets. A small mental calculation will show you the way to invest. Buffet feels that if the calculation   lasts more than ten minutes, and make you tiring ,throw it out of your mind. Complications  will not produce expected results.

Let us take the cue from the oracle of investment . Let us programme accordingly .

Theory Of Business


Business is run for profit. Investing money on a venture will not lead  to great deals. Monitoring each and every move will give good results often . But too much intervention in the daily chores will relate to dissatisfaction. Holding control over the investment is a delicate job and a difficult exercise.

A theorem of Buffet states buy stocks or the long term.Buy with the intention of getting stake holding of the company.Do not procure stocks for short time gains.

Buffet spells prudence. Weak spots of the company give a neat description of the  financial. Taking the deficit into scrutiny,a clean prospective perception  of the company could be worked out. Leaving a safe margin as a threshold, stocks can be bought. The change to positive or negative will not play a significant role  in the long term.Once satisfied with the performance of the company, additions could be made in gradual process . Over a course of time , a sizeable percentage of stocks, would be purchases . This method of procurement can be termed as “amplified buy out”.With this diligent programme, the company will come under control.

This amplification of purchase, is totally an output of the research by the individual, not an illegal operation of the insider trading information.A genuine pragmatic designation is to be developed.The hypothesis of true business is a safe  play, not harming anyone,not defeating any proposition, not ejecting any portfolio,not destructing any ethics, not defaming any person, not indulging in illicit acquisitions.

An evolution of such theory will take up the business to great heights.

East Asian Community


Well, the craze for west, the love for U.S  are slowly disspiating.Asia is taking the supremo from The United States.

The Asian countries were in the pink of economy, with vast natural resources  in hand. The man power was always a prime asset of this area. The excellent skill in manufacturing industry was  prompting envy . The deft hands, and  the shrewd brains,made a rare combination.Hard work and  with standing spirit made these nations shine in the past.

Lured by the    magnificent wealth, the westerners invaded these countries. They explored possible ways to exploit the hidden treasures. They studied the integral part of the society, which brought to light the warring communities. They found out that there was no unity among the people, and the governance in these countries were weak, and divided. Cashing on these elements, the Dutch, Portuguese, French , and British, entered the lands as traders. gradually ,they created chasm ,and split the communities. This tactics helped them to delve deep into the interiors. The assault was timely. the onslaught ,which was unexpected by the locals,  , led to a  coup. The Kings and  local rulers were overthrown. The traders ultimately became rulers.

The ruling power gave them free licence to loot , to plunder, to levy heavy tax, thus filling up  their exchequer in their homeland. Cash, valuable diamonds, beautiful stones, like rubies, emeralds, pearls ,corals, were shipped to the respective countries , thus demeaning the economy of the Asian nations.

The West grew in prosperity, while the east , home to ancient civilization,  succumbed to paucity.

With the hoard of wealth, the western countries , particularly Britain, drove its colonies into slavery and penury. A large level independence struggle was carried out. After, much blood shed and pain the colonies became free. In the course of their dependence, they lost their spirit and courage. The catastrophic  compulsions  were hard to be dissolved. The natives had to find a way out of these divisive forces.

The east Asian Community , at last,in 2009, has found a way out. A long struggle, and an exonerating  impulsion, have shown them a light to move forward. The Western influence is slowly taking the back bench, The attractive U. S. settlement is waning off. The East Asian Nations, Australia, and New Zealand  have to rebalance their growth to face the new challenge.

They will surely  get back on their feet.

Right to Information


An interesting thread which is going around the financials zone is the insider trading. Raj Rajaratnam has amassed wealth through this tip of .

He made $9 million dollars based on Google Inc’s earning expectation in 2007. He traded on the insider tip-off that the revenue would be below the expectation.

The probe in Galleon case is expanding ,as the Federal prosecutors have sent subpoena to a former employee of  SAC capital advisors. It seeks trading records from Richard Grodin, who let SAC in 2004.

The news is bewildering and sends wrong signals across the world of investments.The Right to information act has to be made use of in a forceful manner to get the truth out of the insider information  trading.

A small time investor ,who follows the market, who reads the reports, who testifies on the PE ratio, who  then invests in a particular stock , is deprived of his fortune  by this dubious , daring , hedge fund managers.

Concluding, it is always the innocent and upright who face the music.

Where to find the truth behind this non public information?

How to trace out the fact behind the insider tip of?

Rumpelstiltskin


Fairy tales fascinate me. I read  them ,when my spirits are little down. Right from my schooldays, they have been inspirational.

Rumpelstiltskin, especially, is a magnificent tale ,which portrays greed . Spinning straw into gold, is a metaphor, which insists that skill  makes the impossible into a possibility.

 This fairy tale came into my mind, when I read Infosys  Narayanamurthy’s move to sell his o.13% shares of Infosys for $37 million.Ater this transaction , Murthy will hold 2.38% shares.Infosys was started with $250 , borrowed rom the spouses of six promoters in 1981.

That $250 has been converted to billions. If 0.3% is worth $37million, imagine the net worth o the company. Amazing ,unbelievable, magnificent , are the expressions that strike my mud filled mind. In 1981, I was much worthier than Murthy. In 2009, I come no way near  Murthy.

Murthy is modern Rumpelstiltskin., both in stature and skill . He has  converted  language into billions.

Insider Trading -India Far Ahead.


Insider Trading ,has attained a star status, as Raj  Rajaratnam, Anil Kumar, and Rajiv Goel, Chiesi, Moffat and Mark Kirtland got arrested in a $ 20000 with four counts of security and eight of securities fraud. 

This trading secret was deciphered in India, as early as 1992.Indian memory is not so weak as to forget the Fair growth financial services, promoted by maverick ex banker Ratnakar, who was also involved in the share market scandal ,which was hosted By Harshad Mehta.

 Rich P.Chidambaramand his wife Nalini invested a fairly large sum in the scam tainted Fairgrowth and became richer instantaneously.When the  irregularity was exposed,  Chidambaram resigned. His submission was accepted by the Prime Minister Narasimha Rao,much to the alacrity of  his brother and the public. This move Of Narasimha Rao, was tacit presumption of  Chidambaram’s culpability  in the scam.

1992 is seventeen years from hence. Indians had overtaken the other world by a decade and a half . Indians always think ahead of their times. They possess an intricate foresight

The  keen insight in tracking loose plugs in business, meticulous meandering  into the loopholes of market, scrupulous foraying  into the shoddy virtues of  commerce,are a resounding peculiarity of most of the successful Indian businessmen.

An ordinary Indian ,who resorts to unsavy methods of business , becomes a millionaire overnight.

A millionaire , who  engrosses  himself in unethical procedures of  commerce, achieves a billionaire status over a day.

The Indian decorum  in business world is nonplussed

Internal Eruptions.


The Indian Business school , is one of the best management institution in India. It imparts class education.The institution, is in the limelight for wrong reasons.

Rammohan Rao, its dean ,presided over the fraud botched  Satyam computers., allowing it to buy Mayatas Infra and Mauatas properties. After the  outburst of Satyam dubious deal,he stepped down as dean, but still is associated with the school.

Now Anil  Kumar a top executive in the global consultancy firm McKinsey&co, who  is on the board of IBS,has been arrested for his alleged role in the network of insider trading masterminded by Raj Rajaratnam.

The Indian Business School  is in tight spot.

The Dean and the executive member are associates of fraudulent entrepreneurs..

The school  with a big banner  should  inspire entrepreneurship. But the two members on the governing council instil  a rare kind of interest, that of earning in the wrong way.They behest a bad precedence.They have earned  illegal ,illicit wealth. Their reputation is a sludge. 

Loopholes in trading, exceptions in rules, derogatory tendencies in  provisions pave a negative direction to  business.
The prestigious school is in a delicate, piquant situation.

Dementia


Of late , this symptom has  become a serious disorder . The loss of memory, lack of attention,drawl in speech,unable to solve problems, failure to identify apt words, are some of the cognitive disorders associated with this disease.Aged  are affected. This is mostly incurable.

Obsession and distractions lead to dementia at times. Forgetfulness is a mild form of this  disorder. My memory is  amazing. I remember incidents  that happened a few decades back.Dates  of important events get registered in my mind. Names of people I meet  never get erased from my memory. Stinging comments , humiliating experiences remain fresh in my  brain.

The pride  of my memory, got diffused a few days back. I booked an air ticket. I booked it online. Took a print out of the e ticket. A day before my departure, I glanced at the  print out. Gosh! It was absolutely erroneous. A serious aberration  was  staring at me  , as I had purchased the ticket  by inter changing the city of origin with the place of destination. The ticketing was done a fortnight back. How did I miss it?. How did I do that? I was ashamed of my forgetfulness.
Then , I had to rush through the cancellation of my ticket. Thank God! as it was refundable order , I lost only  250 Rs. The amount , though small,. was a result of my digression.
I was in a disarray the whole day. The memory, a very precious asset of mine , is slowly taking leave of me. What will happen , if this alarming piquancy persists?If this continues , I may not know who I am? I may not know , where do I belong?I may not know ,how I live? My remorse kept me sleepless, and distraught. But , my memory , came out from its slumber. Patting gently,it said “you are going too far. This is a transitory set back. Be cheerful”.

Shirking  my disenchantment ,I rose up from my reverie, with a hope , that such  mistakes will not recur , as my friend Memory has assured a renewed vigour in its performance.
