The markets have been falling like ninepins in the wake of the global financial crisis and investors across the country have borne the brunt of this fall. But hey! The festival season is here again and it’s time to cheer up and hope that the festivities rub off onto the market too.
The market’s mood seems to have improved already: It has begun Samvat 2065, the new trading year for the trading community, on a happy note with the Sensex rising by 499 points in the Muhurat trading on October 28, 2008. That is the highest gain recorded by the benchmark index in any Muhurat trading.
While it might take some more time for normalcy to return to the market, it must be noted that due to the relentless correction in recent times, the valuations of fundamentally strong stocks have become even more attractive.
Therefore to help you make the most of this festive season, we present our compliments of the season along with the Best Stock Picks in today’s market and advice on how to survive this crash. In this festival season, grab every opportunity to buy into the blue chips that are available at mouth-watering prices.
