Market talk


My supposedly-free 2nd half of November is now packed with reports lining up to be written...Marcel commented that he can't do what I do for a living. Neh, I disagree. Anyone can be an analyst. All you need is a healthy body to strive through some late nights, read up and good human relations to talk to the right people. The rest is up to divine intervention :) Don't get me wrong, I'm not belittling my job. It feels really good when a stock under my coverage moves in the direction in my favour. If it doesnt, sorry! Over a longer-term, I would be right - whatever that comes down will go up and vice versa :)

A market analyst is an expert who will know tomorrow why the things he predicted yesterday didn't happen today!
