Guest guest Posted August 19, 2007 Report Share Posted August 19, 2007 Readers Hi, So what happened last week? It was a blood bath on the streets with global markets collapsing as the problems from the US Subprime loans accelerated and there was bad news almost everyday. Despite the ECB, Federal Reserve and Bank of Japan continuing their liquidity-boosting moves by infusing cash into the banking system, the world equity markets were thrashed by a fresh wave of selloff. This was accompanied by a strong Yen which led to the carry trade unwinding. It was massacre in Asia as all these worries got priced in. Thanks to the Fed for giving the respite in form of rate cut. Is our Government in trouble? The ties between the Left parties and the Congress took an ugly turn with both sides refusing to budge from their stated positions on the just concluded nuclear pact with the US. But, CPI-M patriarch, Jyoti Basu, ruled out withdrawal of Left support from the UPA government on the Indo-US nuclear deal. Last week, the UPA Government's communist allies had rejected the 123 agreement, which set in motion the landmark civilian nuclear agreement between the two nations. Well as they say, Honeymoon is over and Divorce could be on the plate. But for now, Congress has promised to resolve the misunderstandings and hence they might sail. Well if the govt falls, we might loose another 500 points on the index and if they survive, O – we would jump a 1000 points. I am going LONG. Is it the time to disco? If global cues are anything to go by (they are everything to go by these days) the start of the week promises to be positive. Stay alert and avoid falling into bear traps. Keep some amount of cash and invest with a long term view. It would be wise to use this as an opportunity. Performance will become tougher where stock specific selection would matter. Probably the worst is over for the near term. With weaker lower currency against the dollar, expect the IT stocks too rise.For day traders, God help you. 1) Share Targets Achieved Did you check that even though the market was heading down entire last week, Alfa Transformers jumped more than 21% last week. http://www.vjondalalstreet.com/shares_tgt.html 2) Share Recommendations Added Punj Lloyd Andhra Bank Tata Tea VSNL AIA Engineering Monnet Ispat Ltd HCL Technologies Indian Overseas Bank ABB We would like to reiterate ITC, ICICI Bank & Mahindra Gesco http://www.vjondalalstreet.com/shares.html 3) Coverage initiated on new Initial Public Offering (IPO) Motilal Oswal Financial Services Ltd Indowind Energy Ltd http://www.vjondalalstreet.com/ipo.html 4) IPO Allotment Status Asian Granito India Ltd SEL Manufacturing Company Ltd http://www.vjondalalstreet.com/ipo_allot.html 5) Coverage initiated on new Mutual Fund (NFO) DBS Chola Infrastructure fund HSBC Dynamic Fund DWS Global Thematic Offshore Fund Escorts Infrastructure Fund Kotak Global Emerging Market Fund DSP Merrill Lynch World Gold Fund http://www.vjondalalstreet.com/mf.html Happy Trading! http://www.vjondalalstreet.com Bus Naam hi kaafi hain...
