Hi Praveeena, The list is from BSE 100 Index which gave 100%+ returns, hence the stocks indicated by you are not forming this list.
Good evening Suresh sir. I follow ur valuable articles on investment. These stocks have already gained a lot, sir it would be great if u publish a report of 10 stocks which will yield more than 50 % return in a year.
RESPECTED SIR, I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE YOUR VALUABLE ADVICE FOR INVESTMENT IN NIFTY BEES.THANKS IN ADVANCE.
Thank you Vinod
This is history. Which are those stock that will give good return in future? Can you give a list of such stocks?
Excellent analysis of all the prime stocks. Request you to advice on top 10 MF which one should invest in fresh or remain invested in previous keeping in view the recent downfall witnessed by MF industry. Also it will be helpful to know about the MF which hv taken maximum beating in the current preiod
Vivek, Thank you. While one can easily filter top stocks or top mutual funds, it is difficult to say about bottom stocks or bottom mutual funds that have taken beating but are fundamentally good. The funds which are recommended by us last year would continue to remain same though there is change in mutual fund categoriization and fund managers are now focussing on largecap instead of midcap/smallcap. These smallcap/midcap has taken huge beating due to this strategy. But we need to have patience now as these would bounce back in medium to long term (cannot expect them in short term)
