Bottom has reached !

Obama gave an exceptional acceptance speech which would make even skeptics vote for him. Democratic party made an excellent choice as their presidential candidate and I fully support Obama for President. America needs change and who is better than Obama ?

Now coming to main topic - I have been calling market bottom for some weeks. With today's GDP report, I can confidently say that market have reached bottom few weeks back and it is on its way towards 12500 by end of year. Most promising part of today's market move was that financials have come back in a big way. I was glad that my call on mortgage insurers was so on the mark with 4 of my recommendations up by 20-50% in last few days. Since these stocks are still down by 80% from their peaks, I would recommend staying invested in these stocks or making positions when they come down little-bit (check out my recommended entry points in previous post).

I see scenario playing out exactly like 1992. Even though I was not in USA, from my reading, some of the similarities are:

  • Bush was president
  • Housing and financials were in trouble
  • Economy was in recession
  • Jobless rate was high
  • Young democratic candidate was inspiring America
Once Clinton was in office, we all know how markets did in 1990's. Hope Obama would do same for markets in next 8 years

Good night and good luck !

2024: The year of.....

Wishing you a joyful New Year filled with laughter, love, and unforgettable moments, surrounded by cherished family and friends. May the 2024 bring similar gains as in 2023! I had great 2 weeks break with travels to Turkey with family and then solo trip to Palm Springs. Both places are amazing and definitely worth a visit if you get chance. Talking about gains in 2023 - Here is recap of 2023.. Inflation fallen below 4% and heading towards 3% Unemployment firmly below 4% Real wages growing above 4% GDP growth around 3% Markets: S&P notching one of the best year with 24% gains while Nasdaq doing even better with 40% gains thanks to Magnificent-7 (or TAMMANNA) many of which had triple digit gains My personal recommendations did exceptionally well - many of which were up by high double digits (e.g. INTC) and some of them had triple digit gains (e.g. META) All in all - 2023 was great year.  As calendar changed to 2024, what's in store for new year? This is election year in many coun

Roaring 20s....Again!

About 2 years back coming out of COVID pandemic, I wrote blog titled " New Roarin' 20s.."  It covered what happened in 1920s and what are the factors now which would trigger new roaring 20s. Do check out the blog...almost all factors are valid even now. 2022 went sideways due to inflation pressures which triggered historical steep rate hikes by central banks which led to tech companies taking more measured approach and laying off 200,000 employees....all of that changed in Nov'22 when ChatGPT was launched...even though I had mentioned AI/ML as one of the factor in my previous blog, ChatGPT really captured the imagination of the world and changed the outlook of AI instantly similar to what Netscape did with the Internet and iPhone did with the mobile. The singular concept of "Language is the Interface" made AI accessible instantly to billions of normal people....And now without mentioning AI, no talk starts or ends in tech world..and despite onsite of most-aw

It was not meant to be...

I imagined today' day (Nov 19, 2023) little differently than what it turned out to be..had a watch gathering at my place with few friends for India vs Aus ICC Cricket World Cup Final. Both teams deserved to be in the final - India winning all games in this tournament and Aus winning last 8 games after initially losing 2 games at start of tournament. The match was being played at the biggest stadium in the world (over 132,000 capacity) and over billion people tuning in...maybe most watched single sports event ever. After Australia won the toss, they choose to field (that's what most likely India wanted). India started well but then wickets kept dropping and India ended with total of 240 all out. That's when all of us knew that the dream of winning third world cup is over...despite one of the best bowling squad India ever had....The score was just not enough even for the best bowling to defend against one of the most professional and mentally strong team....No wonder Australi
