Election Fever

Elections on their way. Most of the south Indian states have completed the process. Though I was enthusiastic to exercise my vote, I just had to enjoy the holiday at home. Felt guilty of myself for missing an oppurtunity.

However, I have gone through a few manifestos of parties. These were the ones I found interesting.

Satyam Stock Confusion

Satyam stock price on BSE seems to be going agains all odds. Just a month ago, the stock price dwindled down from as high as Rs. 220/- to Rs. 20/- However, while other stocks were following the market (read going down), this particular stock took a reverse path. The stock went on for a rally for  nearly a week or two and finally settled at Rs. 40 levels.  Probably, India is the only place on earth where people try to make money on a fraudulent company's stock also. Few stocks whose companies announced profits for the FY09-Q3 were down. But Satyam was rallying in those times as well. God save our investors !!
