U bet it ... i was lucky/unlucky to see a BSE screen well it was JUST RED nothing else but RED all of the 15inches !! I have heard a drop of approx 200-300 more is expected ... it seemed many knew about the fall but were surprised at the extent it went...

WOW !!!

I just bought an Eaton Vance India fund about a month ago. I don't plan on selling anytime soon.

Look at my luck, I was holding to HPQ, which I thought would do well in this quarter, especially given the dirty results of dell! They did have a great quarter, results came and yesterday HPQ held wallstreet toghether. But due to general sentiment did not hit my circuit breaker :'(

Now I need to tread carefully !!!

An intra-day trader will have cleaned up on shorts today. The clowns are the longs who watched today with their chins on their knees. What will they do tomorrow? The same again.....absolutely nothing. When these people are getting out is the time to buy.
