Markets tend to return to the mean over time.
Excesses in one direction will lead to an opposite excess in the other direction.
There are no new eras — excesses are never permanent.
Exponential rising and falling markets usually go further than you think.
The public buys the most at the top and the least at the bottom.
Fear and greed are stronger than long-term resolve.
Markets are strongest when they are broad and weakest when they narrow.
Bear markets have three stages.
When all the experts and forecasts agree, something else is going to happen.
Bull markets are more fun than bear markets.

If you tender your shares in an open offer, if you have held them for over a year , you will have to pay 20% capital gains tax with indexation benefit, and 10% tax without indexation .If you tender shares within a year, you will have to pay income tax as per your tax slab.

If shares are sold in the open market after a year, they do not attract any capital gains tax, but if they are sold before a year, they attract 10% capital gains tax.Shares sold via the bourses however are subject to the STT.

Strategies To Make Money In The Stock Market

May 20, 2012 Leave a comment

First, remember Benjamin Graham’s mantra “The essence of portfolio management is the management of RISKS, not the management of RETURNS. Well-managed portfolios start with this precept.”

Second,remember what Baron Rothschild said – “I never buy at the bottom and I always sell too soon.” Trying to squeeze the last drop of profit from every deal might not be such a great idea.

Third,consider doing what Bernard Baruch used to do. Some 70 years ago, he would research a stock, buy it, and then each time the stock rose 10% from his purchase price, buy an additional amount equal to his first purchase. If the stock began declining he would sell everything he had bought when the drop equaled 10% of its top price.
