Welcome Vincent to TED!
Let me however clarify that I'm still a novice, trying to learn.

Thank you guys for a warm welcome!!
Yes, i'm still holding to GEshipping & added some at 190 levels. if the promoter is buying from the market, i think there is nothing stopping us from doing so too. Also added great offshore when it was being hammered down to 510 levels. I'm holding to all the stocks i'd mentioned earlier. I haven't sold any of them. I will include my % of holdings in the portfolio forum and would like to hear comments from fellow TEDies!!
As for my journey from HM days till 2002. it was FD's, FD's and FD's. Never even dared to look at the stock prices!!

Hi Guys,
Thank you for joining in. The feedback that we have received over the past 3 days has overwhelmed me. The site is already being rated in the top 2 percentile and my sense is that we could help it become VERY BIG... VERY SOON.
Guys we have come here from various walks of life some would be investors, others professionals of other field and from the feed back I got there were quite a number of people who were students trying to understand the complex world of investing.
It would be really great if everyone left a small introduction on this section something like :
- Name - Age - Location - Occupation - Interests
- Investing styles - Trader/Investor etc etc
- Investing Legends - Could be Buffet to Neff.
To start with here is my introduction
-Name : Basant Maheshwari
- Age : 34 years and still growing older with each passing day
- Location : Kolkata (Salt Lake)
- Occupation : Financial Consultant, Academics, Graphologist
- Interests : Reading books on people who have and who want to make
it BIG. Generally I prefer reading on finance.
- Investing styles - Very very long term investor with extremely
concentarted positions. The 3 significant weighted stocks that I hold in
my portfolio are Pantaloon, Tv 18 and Network18. I have been holding
them for 3 -4 years now.
- Investing Legends - Peter Lynch. "Buy what you see" is the mantra
I follow.To me Graham is more theoritical and Buffet too difficult to
emulate.I do use Buffet's investing strategies and thoughts though.
Please enter as much information as you can, there's no pressure..
Thanks everyone and enjoy yourself!
Regards,
Basant |

Hi, this site is also quite skewed on the principles of Buffet and Lynch. You should enjoy being on this forum. Also we look forward to your contribution on this site.

Welcome Ashish to TED. Hope you learn and share a lot here.

The most important quality for an investor is temperament,not intellect.A temperament that neither derives great pleasure from being with the crowd nor against it

Ashish, You are totally different from most of us who are long term investors.
One way it is good so that as Investors we get to know both the faces.
WELCOME TO TED.
