Its so distressing to sift through the whole (mis)information bombardment all around. Loved the post.<br /><br />One parallel I can draw with the Stock markets is the movie Dabangg!! Lot of hype, lot of drama, star-mania (even if completely misplaced), but great entertainment with pop-corn! To speculate in these markets you need a lion's heart, which only Salman Khan possesses, not me!<br /><br />PS: Don't ask me who Salman Khan is! :)Deepahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16149267172223745802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4740849900073154554.post-30613431969067898822010-10-24T14:45:35.010+05:302010-10-24T14:45:35.010+05:30Great title to the post Ramesh - says it all.

For the famed Rajalakshmi also, short term profits make sense and not the logic of financial theories. Nobody really questions the history of the company and its background. <br /><br />Good for the company as long as it can provide proper governance and keep at bay all those previous malpractices. In this case, I doubt.Vishalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09901902300962335348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4740849900073154554.post-17414826419898616842010-10-24T10:55:05.106+05:302010-10-24T10:55:05.106+05:30@Sandhya - Yes individuals really don't matter...@Sandhya - Yes individuals really don't matter, but make the maximum buzz.
