Mahesh asked good question. I do not track Nifty regularly, so I comment on Sensex. My expected bottom (worst) for Sensex is around 6,000-6,500 which may happen in the next 6 months. Sensex earnings will finally fall to 650-700 and command a valuation of 9-10 which gives us a bottom of 6,000-7,000 range. This is my calculation according to the current condition. It is good if situation impoves but things are pointing a btight picture. I am expecting a long recession but not depression for developed economies and drastic slow down for China and India at around 6% and 5% GDP growth rates. In 2007, Companies expected 10-11% GDP growth rates in 2009 and 2010 and builtup massive capacities. In 2009, they are now unable to adjust to 6-5% growth rates (50% fall) which is almost 100% for developed economies. That is why Tata Motors and Tata Steel which paid massive amount for acquisitions are now paying price. Just see what happened to Diachi who bought Ranbaxy. We are living in a econ...(Read more of this comment)omy where World's richest are committing suicide (German who is at 92nd place on Forbes list just committed suicide by placing his head under train).

Dear Dr.Krishna - Now Nifty earning is 228 and PE 14. What do you think will be earnings and PE of Nifty by 4th qtr results? It is a tug of war at high between kenesian and austrian economists. Is it a long recession or turning more into depression?

There is nothing wrong in the bullishness about banking stocks. In the Q3 results, Banking stocks will occupy 30% of total earnings in the BSE 100. That is the impact. In one of the estimates, SBI alone accounts for 30% of Sensex earnings in the Q3. They will soon rise excessively and then fall due to fall in deposits and rising NPAs expecially ICICI Bank. Nomura report is meant for just aid but not as a straight forward advice. I don't look at speculative stocks like GMR Infra and JAI Corp. So, I don't give advice on them. I don't know any thing about Indian authors and books on stock markets. I am requesting fellow readers to answer such questions.

Krishna, To be honest, I don’t believe most of the recommendations as they are from Lehman brother equity India (which are now part of Nomura). I am surprised why banks stocks are so bullish.. any idea sir? Mohan

Celestial Labs Ltd could be a multibagger stock..what do you think krishna...pls krishna we would like to know the MULTIBAGGER STOCKS...There are investors who would like to invest in the stock when the market fall and would like to stay invested for long term...
