Thanks Savant, I noticed you have been quite active over the years! (I have several tabs open in another browser doing research on this forum, and you
are everywhere).
Now, I am not a day-trader... I don't know the technical term on how to classify myself. But basically, I just want to make "opportunistic trades"; and
maybe sometimes "buy and hold". I think I like to pick up stocks that are cheap/undervalued.
Anyway, dear Experts, yesterday (Friday, 13th April) I purchase the following stocks. I would appreciate your feedback, and also your critique regarding
my rationale for purchasing them.
* BHEL: This was recommended in a moneycontrol.com article. The historic price chart indicated that this was being traded at very low prices.
Additionally it is a Navratna company (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Navratna ), this means that if I buy and hold the price is only bound to go up.
* SAIL: Before yesterday, I didn't even know about the Navratna companies. So I decided to research them a little and buy some of the ones that are
being undervalued. I tell myself, "these companies are too big to fail, so given sufficient time their value is most likely going to increase".
GAIL: Same reason as purchasing SAIL. But one more thing... looking at the Chaikin Money Flow indicator, it appears that some buying pressure has
recently appeared. This further reinforced by decision to buy the stock.
Indian Oil: Same reason as purchasing SAIL. But, the RSI is at 37.. now, I know that doesn't indicate "oversold"; but nonetheless, it reinforced my
opinion to pick up the stock.
* Renuka: Everyone has been trading them heavily. They were also recommended in a moneycontrol article... again, going by the price trend this stock is
being undervalued so I figure its a good idea to grab some.
I also wanted to pickup Viceroy hotels but nobody was selling them.
So experts, what do you think of my choices and rationale for picking them?
