Will Diwali trading turn the tide?

Welcome back dear readers, here is your host wishing you all a very happy Diwali - may the festival of lights spark a recovery rally in the Indian stock markets. By the way, the early signs sure do look encouraging - Hang Seng and Nikkei are up by 5% each, so here is hoping a reversal in tides and fortunes for our stock exchanges as well.

Quite a surprise to see some stocks trading below their book values - take Suzlon Energy for example. To an analyst like me, it's a clear sign to pick up such a company as not only is it being currently being undervalued by the company, it also has sound fundamentals coupled with a strong management at the helm. Anyways, this is my opinion and does not reflect either my position or my company's! So, please don't sue either of us for voicing a positive opinion in such a bear market!

Iceland, Pakistan, Ukraine, Hungary - who is next is what must be running through everyone's minds! These are the 4 countries (to-date) who have sought IMF's help to tide over the current financial crisis.
