To me there is nothing to lose, when one invests a little bit of sum in speculations like this. Any how thinking differs from person to person.
Finally thanks a lot for pointing to me that i lack common sense.
With regards as always

It like they say "Common sense is not so common". But isnt this why we discuss it so we can get alternative viewpoints.
A stock needs to have sustainable fundamentals to qualify as an investment.
Besides. many stocks do go through a phase when they are viewed as the next greatest thing during a bull run. And one can really get stuck if one enters these assuming the party will last forever. Ideally one may enter such stocks but should take the gains off the table. In this bull run education and microfinance were celebrated. Some names like Edserv and SKS rise and ebb quite steeply.
Sometimes a lot can be learnt from a cursory look at how the sector in general is faring. Mining in general in this case. recently a lot of regulatory hurdles are coming its way: sharing 26% profits with the locals, tribal land issues, ban on ore exports in Karnataka etc. Too many issues here.
