Warren Buffett, main aa raha hoon...!!

Ok, in case the "Sage of Omaha" does actually end up on this blog...dear Sir, the title of this post is not in the least to offend you. It is more like an incantation to the lord of the world of stocks. Bhagwaan jee, kripa drishti rakhiyega is bande nawaaz pe.. Like many dreamers in the past, I too have borrowed a couple of books from the library, hoping to pick up tips on how to choose stocks and build a brilliant portfolio. More like, "Chalo, ham-au stocks khareed aaye...".

For the time being, however, let me again immerse myself into the world of books [err...academic books, that is] for my mid-term exams begin from 20th. So, side hato Mr. Buffett, and observe how I march head on to meet some of my greatest challengers, namely M/s. Consumer Behavior and Investment and Portfolio Management. Har !! Har !! Har !! Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum...

hmmmm.. warren buffet? i have seen a couple of his investment strategies... and to tell you the truth they work only in the US.... indian companies have only one strategy.... (psst.. this is one of buffet's equations modified)


Investment Probability = no. of employees/no.of cars in parking lot of the company

if ratio > 1 ... invest...

else.. still invest and hope for some miracle to happen on ndtv .. :P

anyway, me high,
cheers,

rose: Thanks. :)) Billionaire banne do..phir dekhna !!! :D

raam pyari: Thanks. Is baar eggjamms ki toh...!$##@$@$#@! !!!!

tariq: I agree that most business books have a tendency to be written for, and are successful only with, an American audience. However, having just read the first few pages of a book on Buffett, the initial advice about "investing in companies of which you understand the business model" makes sense. Of course, that also means that to increase the spread of my investment portfolio, one must increase their knowledge level considerably....

Oh sheesh...there I go spewing jargon again.. ;)
