Om Namah Shiva !…Happy Maha ShivRatri to All…’M’ certainly is the flavour of the Month !…Mahashivratri,Mamta Banerjee,MCX IPO,Mercator Lines and the Much Maligned Mallya of Kingfisher Airlines….

Om Namah Shiva !…. Happy Maha Shivratri to all of you… Bam Bam Bhole !… Jai Bholenath !

My Wife’s ‘Tandav’ … evidence above (her Arrangetram in 1981), and recent too… seriously!… has kept us Happily Married … and this is not an oxymoron !… we shall celebrate our silver next year in 2013

“Jai Jai Shiv Shankar, Kaata na lage Tunker !…..” Check out Rajesh Khanna & Mumtaz making this Song Immortal in ‘Aap Ki Kasam’ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xApijNIJBt8 while consuming the intoxicating ‘Bhaang’ as is traditionally done on this auspicious day Celebrating the marriage  of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati

Oh ! do you know what they call ‘Bhaang’ in English !… Shiva’s Regal !

And ‘M’ is certainly the flavour of the Month…

  • Mahashivratri today…. this blog has already wished all of you above
  • Mamta Banerjee… The West Bengal CM’s Mentality and Mindset is being seriously questioned when she thrashed the character of last week’s Kolkata Rape Victim saying the lady who frequented nightclubs, had concocted the story and today after arrests made of some of the perpetrators, says the Police had mislead her !… Ofcourse Mamta is Insensitive.. but was she trying a cover up because she was approached for it !?
  • MCX IPO in the Primary market opens on Wednesday,February 22,2012… It’s a Full Offer for Sale Issue by existing Shareholders in a Price Band of Rs 860 to Rs 1032 of a FV Rs 10 Equity Share… Valuation is not really Cheap… nearly 5x Book and 18x Earnings… Consolidated Networth is just over Rs 1000 crs and a succesfull IPO will give it a Billion Dollar Market Cap… pays Dividend, but has a negative Cash Flow and has serious loss in every major Exchange it has opened overseas… Dubai, Singapore, Bahrain, Africa… the last two have yet to begin operations… will be listed only on BSE…. I am going through the 534 pages RH Prospectus and will blog seperately on MCX IPO in a day or two after also gaining some insights from the inside
  • Mercator at Rs 31 in the Secondary Market for a FV Rs 1 Share… some serious buying observed… High Net Worth Investors have been calling in to confirm this… 52 Week High of Rs 46 and Low of Rs 16…. It was my huge multibagger when I initiated heavy buying in the early 2000s at Rs 45 when it was a FV Rs 10 share… Clients rode it all the way past Rs 2000 ! inside three years !… then Congress regained Power at the Centre and the BJP linked Mercator lost Power ! …. what’s all this heavy buying about now !…. the company has made net losses in the last four quarters…… checking it out… should blog on it shortly
  • Much Maligned Mallya of Kingfisher Airlines…. he’s literally been grounded… Airline is bleeding and therefore so are all stakeholders… bank accounts are frozen… flights are being cancelled all over India… and he’s at the rough end of some real nasty tweets… quite deserving,I daresay !

    Adieu 2010…Welcome 2011….Hope we get to welcome a ‘Magic’ Stock yet again !

    Adieu 2010…Welcome 2011

    They Say Our Life’s Expectancy is measured by the Number of Breathes we take…there’s a finite number pre ordained for each one of us….so here’s wishing that you take fewer Breathes in 2011,so that you live longer !

    So Breathe Deeply and make your New Year Resolutions….and Breathe Deeper when you break them !

    Given you some really huge Multibaggers in the 21st Century…Matrix Labs,Mercator Lines,Essar Oil,Sagar Cements,ICSA,Sesa Goa to name a few….have positioned you with a few more for the coming years

    Let’s Hope 2011 throws up a real ‘Magic’ & ‘Miracle’ Stock up for you that makes you ‘breathless’! (so you live longer too!..refer up) and revs your Equity Portfolio up so fast that you can take an early retirement !….Maybe I’ll spot one for clients yet again…Now ! Now ! I said Maybe !

    ….but what I do promise on my blog is to keep warning you to stay away from Companies that seduce or are simply scandalously overpriced !…like Emami Infrastructure was when it got listed on the demerger !…High of Rs 600 on the NSE !…. and at Rs 100 + it was widely thought to have stabilised…it’s down to Rs 35-Rs 45 range now  within months !   

    Cheers !
