4. Indian inflation high

5. Indian Interest rates nearly at peak

6. Rupee at all time low compared to USD

7. Facebook IPO coming

8. Gold nearly all time high

9. Indian market every quarter (for last one and half year) is making lower low and lower high.

10. Indian market retracted from all time high in Nov 2010 and since then just receding.

11. Europe fear looming large

12. Top Indian banks have been downgraded

13. USA presidential elections coming this year end.

14. Elections due in some of key states in India later this year.

I think, Indian markets are in a kind of bear market after topping out in Nov'10... I feel major indices are likely to retest our recent lows of Dec'11 in times to come.. It would be interesting to see if we can hold-on to those lows....If we cant hold-on to them, then any technical chartist will easily give u his own set of downside targets.. So stay frosty & more importantly stay invested and increasing equity exposure wont be a bad idea in current pessimistic environment !!

Yes the best time to invest - when majority are fearful of doing so. But need to put in a staggered manner into carefully studied/selected stocks.

Major risks for Indian Economy are : High Inflation, High Crude prices, High Interest Rates, Lack of policy reforms, Eurozone problems.
 
Ray of hope seen in : Interest rates going down from the peak, Crude prices softening, No Investor Frenzy, Valuations are not rich.

Forget all these reasons. The only reason is THE family using remote control and our PM,FM are controlled remotely. Our problem is not USA or EU. Our problem is New Delhi.

We were doing nicely and had chance to become preferred investment destination. But we kept on shooting in the foot, several times.

Right Manish but it is our habit to blame others "always" for our failure. Our jokers PM and FM have no idea about their own country and they belabor some crap about US and EU.

I am sure US and EU will come out of their recession. India will have hard time. I doubt if India will ever get to see good growth.
