Very hard to say if we are in a bull or a bear market
In short term the market seems to be oversold

I was coming out of college and was standing close to a roadside pan-bidi(cigarette) shop. I heard the shopkeeper put buy call on some blue-chip stocks !!
May all these guys lead the rally !

There is definitely growth in the economy. But the markets are not directly linked to the performacne of the economy.

This is exactly what is needed. More and more people should come forward and invest. We can not always look to FIIs.

Even in the US people lost money badly in the stock market. There the whole system is very sophisticated. Even then there was a lot of pain.
 
Investing is a very sophisticated activity. To understand earnings, systemic risk etc. and short term pain versus long term gain requires a certain amount of sophistication.
 
If in India everyone invests and the markets fall we are going to have chaos.
 
In fact it is better if a certain category of investors stays out of the market.

Now seems like commodities in correction mode; good monsoon expected; monetary tightening by china already showing its effect as manufacturing slowed down in china; Indian rates might have peaked  out;
HAVE WE HIT BOTTOM NOW ATLEAST FOR SHORT TERM OF 5-6 MONTHS AND CAN WE MAKE NEW HIGH?????????????????????????

Main reason for rising inflation were global factors and something uncontrollable by RBI. Global cues already pointing out at inflation peak and hence Indian rates might have peaked out (and maybe going ahead RBI will take credit for easing inflationWink)

People start finding  reasons for fall when market has fallen a lot , and find reason  for rise when market has risen a lot,   while a real investor does the opposite.
 
People  use Trading "Skills" while investing and Investing "Skills" while Trading.  its really makes me sad. :(
 
Why do people want to ask "Have we hit bottom??? Can we make new high???" even when it will not atall make a difference if the "Market" i.e few basket of stocks take a index to new high or new lows,to a general portfolio.
 
All want to find a reason to blame for the market fall and as soon as market starts to rise , no one wants to even talk about the same reason "due to which the market was falling"  as per them.
 
Eg:-  Crude was around $90-$102 around the small correction around Jan-March 2011,  The whole world was saying CRUDE !!!! CRUDE !!! CRUDE !!!! $100 !!! $100 !!! $100 !!!  , and when market started to rise, no one is talking about crude at all , even when its currently at $113 and was rising continously from Jan 2011, and is still rising.  
 
I am 100% confident that in the next 3-4 months you will read/hear/see people talking only 2 things =  Crude and Inflation.  while the market will do what it has to do, people will do what they have to do  i.e talk what is obviously know to the whole world and will blame "XYZ" for the fall. but wont even  learn from the mistake or try to understand the market.
 
(extremely sorry for the above post, but I wanted to take out my anger somewhere, Mods can delete if they find any wrong in it)
