 As I Blog this we are closing this week on the BSE in even more negative territory despite the Indo -US Nuclear Treaty and the US Financial Bail-out Plan having been passed on October 1,2008…yesterday BSE was closed on account of Gandhi Jayanti and Eid…The Sensex,which had closed at 13056 the day before is down over 570 points and has slid below 12500 and should close at the lowest so far in 2008 

As I have said in recent blogs…look for Vulture Opportunities
