Pleased to announce on the auspicious occasion of Dassera, the launch of a new trendy weekly tabloid. This will cover the news, events, non-events, crashes & accidents of the previous week.

Watch out for inaugural issue coming up soon.
Note: TLSJ is recruiting and looking for smart & active investigative journalists. Prior experience in sting operations preferred but not essential. The candidates should have fire in the belly (not elsewhere).

Candidates....thanks for the overwhelming (?) response. Since it is a kind of start-up venture, remuneration would be discussed upon achieving at least break-even.

Richest Indian Worried
(TLSJ reporter)
According to inside information from unreliable sources, the richest Indian who has interests in Oil, Gas, Refinery, Retail, Life Sciences and allied sectors is a worried man..
The reasons he's worried are plenty:
So, because of these factors, he is believed to be planning to sell some of his businesses. He would soon order the Refineries to stop processing & is also mulling asking 32.8 % of his staff to go on leave. The plant can always be re-started when Nifty holds crucial support levels. In a unrelated development, CEO of a leading Pvt bank in India is rumoured to be considering closing down of 40% of branches because of global turmoil.

A riot like situation was reported by our journalist from SEBI's HQ. As per unconfirmed reports, the reason for the ruckus was conversation between Investment Bankers handling Rel Power's IPO and SEBI seniors which went like this:

iBanker: "Yes Sure Saab, it stands for Red Herring Prospectus, doesn't it?"
SEBI: "No.......it's Range Haath Pakadna"

TLSJ Exclusive: IT Biggies to Di-worsify
(Our reporters from Bangalore, Hyderabad, Chennai)
There was a secret Video Conference between CxOs of four IT biggies this morning to ponder over present scenario & future of IT, ITES sector in general & mull diversification. In an exclusive sting operation our hackers could eavesdrop on some portion of the conversation. Here's a slice of it....
CxO-i: "Gentlemen, since our sector is not performing well on the bourses, our organisation is seriously thinking about a foray into Realty which seems to be in vogue. Afterall, we have acquired a lot of land under SEZ scheme."
Cxo-w: "Yeah, I second your opinion. In fact our board of directors would be meeting very soon for an EGM to amend MoA to include Retailing operations. You all know that we already our own FMCG product range."
CxO-t: "The traction seems to be more in BFSI space. We are planning to apply for a Banking license. In spite of good results & guidance our stocks are beaten down by the markets whereas Pvt Banking Stocks have all outperformed us hence this thinking. And then we could always utilise strong experience, gobal delivery model with our inhouse IT products+solutions."
CxO-s: "You know what friends.......I can't agree more on this with you all. Having said that, we see lots of opportunities in Forex Trading. While hedging we have realised that you get to carry out leveraged trades & earn millions of rupees all in a matter of days."
For complete coverage on this Video Conference, please visit http://www.bh#$%#.org - www.bh#$%#.org which by the way is a pay-per-view portal where one needs to pay through nose.

MARKET OUTLOOK: Bole TAU
Due to public demand, TLSJ is pleased to start a new column wherein we get tips &
TLSJ: What do you feel about Markets with F&O expiry this week?
TAU: Markets are poised very interestingly. Global and local cues would decide the direction.
TLSJ: Such prediction can be done even by 5th grade student. Tell us more specific targets.
TAU: Hmmm.....If Nifty is able to cross its previous high then the next logical target is another 10% rally.
TLSJ: And if it doesn't?
TAU: Then it is a double-top formation. Markets would correct.
TLSJ: What if it crosses previous high, achieves your target & then corrects?
TAU: It's a classic sign of a false break-out.
TLSJ: And if the bull rally continues for months together...?
TAU: Blame it on liquidity, my friend. Having said that, market looks a bit top-heavy and over-bought to me. But it would be choppy.

Another issue is they come on biz TV to advertise themselves & to get subscriptions. It's there business to find clients. I met a Mungerilal this afternoon. He had heard an expert analyst speaking on TV few days ago about how he helped a client double money between breakfast & lunch (within few hours) just by buying some options over phone. Our inspired & over-excited friend tried to 'play' with options for jhatpat money. It is needless to say the end result was devastating. Galti analyston ki nahin hain....woh apne Laal ki hi hain.

P.Notes: The Confusion Prevails
(TLSJ reporter)
SEBI Had invited leading FIIs and domestic Brokerages for a roundtable on policy issues with ODIs also known as Participatory Notes.
According to the source who did wish to be named but was present at the meeting, the confusion still prevails amongst market participants.
Even after heated arguments for over couple of hours the delegates could not come to any conclusion over a contentious issue of KYC-norms.
As per SEBI officials, KYC stands for Know Your Customer. Whereas brokerages were pleading that in their book it means Knock Your Customers.
The meeting was then adjourned. Grapevine has it that the issue would be resolved upon FM's return from foreign tour.

Valuation of a s*x worker: Dalal Street-shtyle
(TLSJ reporter)
In an interesting development, a s*x worker from a major Metro city has valued herself to be worth US$ 3 Millions.
Speaking exclusively to TLSJ, one Ms. Chameli (name changed on request to protect identity) was candid enough to disclose many interesting things.
Ms Chameli's argument is that as per current prevailing market conditions, she does private placement of a partial stake for each hour @Rs. 2000 for full service. Considering earning potential of 8 hours a day & 20 years of active business life, she is worth US$3 Millions.
Asked to explain the risk factors, Ms Chameli declined to comment.
We later learnt that she got inspiration to value herself after having look at how iBankers & hyper-active Analysts are coming out with bullish reports to push some IPOs.

TLSJ learns that the discussions are in a state of stalemate because of a contentious matter. The acquirer does not want to take a group of employees (allegedly rogue bankers) who were involved in 'play for pop' game of RelPower IPO.

Watch out before you dial!
(TLSJ reporter)
http://www.dnaindia.com/report.asp?newsid=1151729 - Cell numbers may go from 10 digits to 11 Our sources inform us that "SambandhLaal Securities" who specialise in studying co-relationships between various factors. have sent a cautionary note to their HNI clients.
According to a detailed study conducted in emerging markets by expert strategists, whenever a digit was added to either a fixed or cellular phones there was major fall in leading indices. So it could ring a bad news to Sensex & Nifty if at all the proposal is approved by TRAI.

Budget gets a thumbs-up from Chameli
(TLSJ reporter)
In an exclusive chat with TLSJ, http://www.theequitydesk.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1297&PN=5 - Ms. Chameli talked about the latest Budget & its impact:
TLSJ: "So what's your first reaction on this union budget?"
Chameli: "I would give 7.5 out of 10 to the FM. Firstly I thank him for not including our profession in the service tax net. You see....Lawyers & us have something in common with our core business activity."
TLSJ: "Do you see any impact because of STCG?"
Chameli: "Yeah, that's a bit of negative as many of my cleints were short-term traders. I have always preferred them over long-term investors"
TLSJ: "Would you like to elaborate on that?"
Chameli: "Look those long-term investors spend a lot of time in consolidation. And as far as short-termers they lack patience so I'm able to achieve high turn-over."
TLSJ: "Any other sector specific observations?"
Chameli: "Excise cuts to Pharma industry & AIDS related medicines is a big positive. I'm quite happy with proposed sops to the rubber industry."
TLSJ: "Rubber....you mean it helps tyre makers so your clients reach faster?"
Chameli: "No Sir....not Tyres I'm more concerned about who tires first."
TLSJ: "One last question; Aap ka Sone ke baare mein kya khayal hain?"
Chameli: "Kiske saath?"
TLSJ: "Ahem....I was talking about investing in Sona...Gold"
Chameli: "Aisa clear bolo na! Look Mister, when all people are going after that asset class, I fail to understand how big money will be made. Even in our profession, when clients go after a particular asset, usually either the client or that asset suffers a lot."

MBAs will need to work hard now?
(TLSJ reporter)
TLSJ conducted a random survey about this latest trend. Here are some interesting findings:
1. 66% readers were concerned that who will prepare those 'structured finance' deals, recommend 'swaps', 'exotic toxic derivatives' to clients.
2. 34% people surveyed were of the opinion that MBAs from IIM should instead add real GDP to Indian economy by working in core sector industry.
3. Microsoft is worried for a different reason: If those MBAs don't join iBankers who will buy their liecensed version of PowerPoint presentation software?
4. Tie manufacturers & Suit makers as well as branded shoe makers see slowdown in sales.

Losses of the Bosses
(TLSJ reporter)
Due to readers' concern TLSJ contacted the offices of concerned owners/promoters to understand the situation.
To our surprise no one seems perturbed because of this loss though we couldn't directly reach couple of them. However, our sources say that all have confirmed that this is just a notional reduction of wealth. Thankfully they do not trade shares owned by them in FnO segment which could have resulted in booking of actual losses to the tune of at least US$340 Bn (considering 5x leverage) to meet mark-to-market margin calls.

It's a bit unfair: Ms Chameli
(TLSJ reporter)
In an exclusive chat with TLSJ on this news, Ms. Chameli had this to say:
"I'm extremely dissatified with such hypocrisy. It's not only in the West but even in emerging economies like India. The tragedy is that no one tries to understand the importance of our profession, which your readers may know is oldest in the world. Why punish that poor governor? If Fed is printing & distributing easy Dollars, why this fuss when people spend on their basic needs.
Having said that from business point of view, I don't foresee any slowdown in activity as we are fairly recession-proof. As a policy decision however, I have decided not to do business with Investment Bankers as they want to enjoy both ways and when it comes to settle my fees, they point fingers to their client."

CFO jailed
(TLSJ reporter)
Bengaluru: CFO of a large organisation was jailed for beating the company security guard today afternoon. Police reports suggest that while returning from lunch the security guard saluted the CFO & said in Kannanda: "Saar, Yen Samachara?". The CFO got so angry that he started punching the guard all over the body. The guard has been admitted in a local hospital for treatment & is believed to be in serious condition.
TLSJ's investigative reporters have learnt that the trigger for CFO's anger might be 'knock-out' levels breaching in exotic toxic Fx Derivatives in Japanese currency.
As per last reports, CFO has been released on bail of INR 5,000 (equivalent to USD 123.50 or JPY 12,350)

The neighbouring shopowners now confirm that since then the restaurant owner is not of the structure he used to be. And due to deterioration of financial health, he is seen around eating vada-paav at roadside eateries.

Bars to debar CFOs
(TLSJ reporter)
In a very unusal development, Bar Owners' Association is considering a proposal to ban CFOs from drinking at Bars in India's financial capital, Mumbai.
Upon detailed investigation TLSJ has learnt that the reason behind this could be an incident at one of the bars in Nariman Point area:
A visibly upset CFO walked into this bar Friday evening. He drank like a fish gulping down almost a full bottle of newly launched Fuel vodka. After exchanging few words with the waiter, CFO slapped him hard & started abusing loudly using unprintable slangs. Fellow drinkers, eye-witnesses to the spat said that the discussion went like this:
In an unrelated development, TLSJ further learns that the organisation for which this CFO works is rumoured to be incurring huge losses in USD-CHF derivative Fx trades & is expected to report very bad quarterly results.

After seeing the condition of Mungerilal and his other friends finally Sebi may ban brokers from giving stock tips and also trading on stocks for which it makes brokerage report
Source :- Rediff Money March 31, 2008 17:47 IST Amid sharp volatility and selling pressure at the bourses, market regulator Sebi on Monday proposed to ban exclusive tips for trading and sought to make norms for brokers, researchers and analysts more stringent. Seeking to improve sales practices followed by the trading members of the stock exchanges, SEBI proposed strict norms, including complete information on brokers to the clients they were servicing. "Trading members owe their clients a duty to provide suitable investment advice in the best interest of the clients," said the draft policy for improvement in sales practice by the members of stock exchanges on which Sebi has invited comments from the public by April 15. The guidelines also make it mandatory for brokers to recommend sale/purchase of shares which are "suitable for such client(s) on the basis of facts disclosed...financial position, other security holding, past investment experience and pattern and investment needs". The Sebi guidelines also seek to ban research analysts from buying or selling shares of the concerned company 30 days before and five days after the publication of the research. The onus of ensuring compliance by research analysts on buying or selling of shares of the concerned company will rest with the brokers. It added that brokers would not recommend to their clients "securities or derivative contracts on such securities in a concentrated manner, which represents a subjective or arbitrary supply of information". According to the draft, the investors would be required to have a minimum net worth of Rs 5 lakh for trading in derivative segments. Brokers, it added, "shall not execute transactions for own account in securities ahead of making recommendations to their clients in such securities." ------------- Women are like the stock market Coz they're irrational n can bankrupt u if u're not careful |
