Thank you very much for the warm welcome.
 
Basant, You are right, the intensity is what matters. At the same time, intensity need not be adrenaline charged. Sometimes doing absolutely nothing and believe me its very hard to sit idle, is the better option and it requires a lot of intensity. Most of the stocks in my portfolio, Nucleus, a 25 bagger,  Blue Star a 7 bagger, Shanthi Gears, a 6-7 bagger, L&T, I don't even remember, it was one of the first stocks I bought way back in early 2002, have all given me great returns because I didn't tinker around or churn the portfolio. Ofcourse, my lethargy wasn't a result of any profound investing insight but was mostly unintentional and what the heck the market was going up like crazy anyway. But in hindsight, I think it was a very important lesson that I learnt, albeit unintentionally.
 
Omshivaya, 
Retiring in a few years ? No way. I love investing way too much to even consider quitting Smile
 
Shashi,
Let me congratulate you on your analysis of YES Bank. Its one of the simplest at the same time indepth analysis of a bank that I have ever come across. I have always found banking stocks too complex to analyze.

Name:Atul
Age: 31 Years
Location:Bogota, Colombia - born and brought up at Chandigarh
Occupation:  Banking Software consultant
Interests: Football, stock market
Investing Style: first started investing in 1997... small time. burnt my fingers in pentafour, HFCL and Zee TV.
Again started in Aug 2004. 30% of my portfolio is focussed long term. 70 % is short term.
Want to change this to 75% Longterm and 25 % short term. i love to speculate short term.
From the beginning(Aug 2004) was very bullish on pantaloon, TV18  and IFlex. Sold IFlex at the wrong time(at 1000). Still think the three companies have a long way to go.
My longterm holdings currently - Pantaloon, TV 18 and Ab Nuvo.
Investing Legends: Warren Buffet and Peter Lynch. Have read a lot of books on investing .
