Sharing unbiased information for the small investor

Is the Indian market in a bubble or is the India growth story real ? Are stocks manipulated by market operators ? Hows does a small investor in India benefit from the economic growth the country is going thru without getting swindled by the big stock market manipulators and FII's. Is TV news to be trusted ? There are a zillion analysts on TV giving their opinions. How many times have their stock calls been correct ?
I thought maybe a collective discussion will help alleviate some of the uncertainity one faces when facing the formidable market. Most small investors seem to enter the market at the peak and exit the market at the bottom, vowing never to return, only to repeat their mistakes time and again. Its time to lose our naivity and invest like pros.
It will hard to beat the big guns but if we can educate ourselves of the pitfalls of investing and stop investing blindly, the market will return the favor with an average return higher then what we have achieved in the past. Is that too lofty of goal for this blog ?

  1. India's growth story will be real if people can think good and not greedy.

    In 1947 we were bankrupt, compare to that, we now have good money right. That will fuel growth, but people should not imitate the west (in terms of bullying each other, intimidating folks etc...), rather we should plan our future well collectively. Everybody knows stock markets in west are a gamble which every citizen is wishfully asked to play coz that citizen has no other option. We should avoid such thing in India.

    Don't make India a capitalist. The socio-capitalistic setup is better option.
