The old saying goes that the markets make fools of the maximum number of people. It did that exactly today. It made people sell off at losses and then rebound. Who ever asked me today I told them to sit tight. The reason being that we gave our blood yesterday and the pain today will be false. Do not know how many listened. Not many I presume. The market is a great decepticon as in al la transformer language. It till take your money without much effort by scaring you when you are already down.
Now do you really think we are set for the great rise , not in the near future.The market for some reason may go down once again tomorrow.The market closed flat after recouping all its losses in the last couple of hours of trade on Tuesday supported by short covering in banks, auto and FMCG stocks. However, the market fell 200 points at opening as global markets fell after weaker-than-expected US manufacturing data in January. It was another most worrisome factor in addition to weak Chinese factory growth. Both indices managed to hold important levels i.e. 20000 level on the Sensex and 6000 on the Nifty.Will it sustain doubtfull.
