Hello All

I think this is a very good time to start this thread as markets corrected considerably yesterday and like everybody else, I am looking to expand my portfolio.

I was lucky [and partly smart] enough to free up nearly 30% holdings into cash last week.

Here is my current holding:

SUN PHARMA ADVANCED RESEARCH C @128.46 [long long time ago]
ALOK INDUSTRIES LTD. @22
EKC @180[thought 200EMA is unbreakable ]
PSL @152
HDIL @346[trading call, support yesterday was @ 364, should have placed SL @ ~360 (currently sitting on 50EMA, hoping for a bounce 2moro)]
MANGALAM CEM @127.95
Ratnamani @109
Ahmednagar forging @81.5
ksb pumps @448

total PF worth today is 90000. and luckily still in green
I'm looking to add stocks from Mr market mover's 1 lakh PF.
I think the markets could still fall further upto 4950-4970 levels,where I'm looking to enter.
suggestions and critics welcome.

okay. it has started bleeding now

picked up:
Asian hotel @ 492
finolex cables @ 57
Cairn @ 271 [thanks to marketmover, I somehow missed this one from my new watchlist]

Im planning to add a few stocks from banking sector as 1-2 year investment. Please suggest your picks.

sorry for asking 'ready-made' stuff. I am somehow stuck with reading the charts. can't seem to pick stocks for long term holding

quick update:

picked up 50 Oi Country @ 122.

older update:

sold 50 of 100 Ahmednagar forg @ 102. and Asian hotel 50 of 75 @ 515.

Wait for making fresh investment, selling may continue, don't be fooled by minor rallies, At the moment look only at nifty shares to buy, don't buy small cap shares at the moment.

I got excited by the little pull back. thx for the caution.

Im looking at adding HINDALCO and POWERGRID to my PF. Please let me know your thoughts.

I want to add some banks to my PF but most NSE bank stocks look very costly. I don't have any banking stocks in my PF.

I would use all bounces to exit, I don't have much shares to do the same, Only 3 companies, which I plan to hold it for a very very long time, Holding cash to the extent of 76% (Check my portfolio), so I don't have anything much to do,except sit and watch, Would look at the markets after the budget, I would not mind buying it a little costly, once Iam sure about the market, right now I have absolutely no conviction, would play some IPO's, that's all

update-

added GOLDBEES [for long term investment- hope to add more in near future] and Bharti airtel.

sold Mangalam cement.
wanted to sell-off the remaining 25 Asian hotels. it's now down to 525 from 580 a few days ago
at least it's still higher than buying price..

Updated PF:




Last week:

Sold Ahmednagar @ 140
Bought some shares in SRF; Finolex.

Today bought another 20 shares in HDIL. It bounced from the 200 EMA [hope it closes above]. Had booked partial profit before it fell below my buying price.

latest update --> sold Bharti @ 299.

Portfolio as on 2009-10 year end.



is my portfolio balanced enough?

Isn't today left? Or are you intending not to do any buying/selling today?

Another thing, not everyone understands the ICICI codes for stocks. It may be better to give the NSE / BSE code in the portfolio if that is possible.

Heard nice things about KSB Pumps. Would love it if Alchem cast his eye on this stock.

yep. none ripe enough to harvest yet [some of my friends have been playing too much farmville on facebook]

Will do that starting my next update. Will do a monthly update from now on and it's sharekhan codes btw.

Your KSB Pumps is not the most actively traded stock in the world

I had forgot about sowing.

Bought MAX INDIA, RCOM and added GOLDBEES yesterday. Shares still not in my DP account. Year end list was indeed year-end list .

Latest holdings:



+ 79 shares of ILFS from IPO still holding.

Updates from last week:

Sold Cairn and KSB PUMPS.

Bought Shree Ganesh Jewellers and Ahmednagar forging.

I'm yet to understand the NAV system. haven't been able to go through the posts you guys have put in about the calculations.

Will post my portfolio NAV updates as soon as I get there.

Thanks.

Last week's update:

Sold 200SRF @ 208
Sold IL&FS @ 289.

Selling only to free up some cash. I intend have them both in my portfolio hopefully I get a better price for both of them.

I know there are a few stocks that I need to get rid of but don't want to book loss.

Classic case of cutting profits and letting losses run

Once again left with very less cash in a correction .

Cleared up all holding in the below counters. Moving into cash.

Bharti.
Ashok Leyland.
TCI.

Which ones should I remove from my portfolio? I have no problem holding for at least 12-18 months.
I just want to clean up the portfolio and remove non-performers .

Add 19 Bajaj Corp and 43 EROS from IPO.

How much you have made/lost in individual shares is not important.

Look at the future potential and then decide if you want to exit the stock or not.

You may have made 100% profit in a stock, but if you think it is still under-valued, hold it.

Under-performance should also not be a reason to sell.

A stock may have gone nowhere in last one year, but if you think it has potential, you shouldn't sell it.

Sold 19 Bajaj corp shares from IPO @ 725.

Mother's account: Wanted get rid of JBF industries. Did it at the first chance that I saw yesterday @ 176. Glad I got a 11% profit out of it. Looks like it might ride the tide but I wasn't sure on the bet. No complaints.

I like the portfolio I have in mother's accounts. My account is mostly short term trading. This one I am using for long term investment.

Arvind mills
Reliance communication
RIL
MBL INFRA
CENTURY PLY
EROS[IPO]

Bought Shasun Chem @ 71.

Reason for this trade.

What do you think about JBF?

JBF looks to be a very good bet long term.

Its Oman oil pact and RAK plants should see revenues grow up significantly in coming years.

Currently the stock is struggling to cross the 100MA resistance around 177-182 range. Will accumulate if it falls to 160-165 levels or breaks resistance mentioned above.

Current status of the two accounts:
Sharekhan account[over 3 years since opened]:
Current holdings: 2.4L
Overall P/L: +3k

SBI account[Less than year old]:
Current Holdings: 3.09L
Overall P/L: -30k[including 30k booked profit. Current stocks are down 60k]

Clearly short/medium term trading is the way to go when markets are trading in range.

Unfortunately, I will need to liquidate most holdings for house renovation within a few months so can't average now. Just waiting for some sort of pull back to get out.

Sold REI agro @ 27.3 and RIL @ 1050. Brokerage and taxes extra.
