Chill ! : The Ferrari & the Hatchback both stop at the next red light !
It doesn’t matter what we really did this year – the Ferrari & the hatchback were both stopped out at the next red light !
If I didn’t buy at 18K, I did so at 15K. And if I didn’t at 15, I did at 12. And in either case, I ANGRILY averaged down, down, down till 9K, or till at some point I was fully invested. Most went in at some point & then AGAIN at every ALTERNATE (retrospectively) top in the Sensex sequence this year of 21K/ 18/ 15/ 12/ 9 …. And if I felt smug at some point for holding cash for whatever time period, saying “am tempted to tell u …, but I won’t, as I already did”, well, those who held cash the longest got impatient the earliest. Same difference !
Stock-selection, sector-selection,…. nothing really mattered. As only the very very dumb would have converted everything into HUL (price 205) in Jan 08 – at its then PE of 26 !!! – read next in small letters – its 225 today at sub-9K!!! Not dumb, actually ABNORMAL people – Mongoloid from birth or something like that – they will anyway get lucky once in 42 years & keep suffering for each 41 year period – so there !
And. Those who invested elsewhere instead of India, …. Russia, Brazil, whatever, … lost money elsewhere … even alternative commodities … oil, gold, … So Chill !
Am not finished! Most of those prigs who sat on CASH in 2008, also sat on cash most of 2007 – so imagine THEIR BOTH years of stress – missing those wonderful rallies, not knowing what to do – the fretting & fuming. Far more stress than ALL the others who played & kept busy, mentally active, losing money, you see! Instead these guys, they became Attaccabottonis (Italian: a bore who corners people with sad, pointless tales) – everyday they woke up feeling the world would end… slapped their kids, tore wings off butterflies & cheated on their … dogs … not taking them for walks. So these CASH-types got constipation ! whooping cough !!! And piles !!! So, the first Raaga below is dedicated to them, who deserve our pity-most !
STILL not finished! And, and, and, … those who sold all in Jan 07 & left all this investing stuff & retired to a beach house … they r not safe either ! One day in 2020, they’ll all drown in their sleep in their beach mansions, ‘coz they aren’t alert anymore … so smug in their wife’s bosom, they haven’t read up, that Global warming will flood them as the polar caps heat up in anger at their lack of team spirit & camaraderie in Jan 2007 !!!
So chill ! … Ferrari …. hatchback … beach house …. all the same …
