Infosys - An investment of Rs. 10,000 in 1993 would be worth over Rs. 1.5 crores in 2008.

Unitech - An investment of Rs. 10,000 in 2003 would be worth over Rs. 1 crore in 2008.

Jaicorp - An investment of Rs. 10,000 in early 2006 would be worth over Rs. 22 lakhs in 2008.

And the Biggest of them-

Wipro - An investment of Rs. 10,000 in 1980 would be worth more than Rs.150 crore!!!! in 2008.

Any guess what is next !!!!!!!!

Think about it.

I ofcourse buy and hold. I hold maybe for two minutes or at most for 3 hours. It is still buy and hold. Behold! What about sell and hold? some food for thought maybe.



Happy Trading!

Guesses dont work in the markets, only deep analysis does, you could check out the various threads started by me which could be potential multibaggers.
