After receiving an enormous hammering over the last week, the Indian stock market rebounded strongly on Friday. The Nifty gained 1.57%, the Sensex gained 1.53%, and all sector indices closed on a green note. The Sensex and Nifty 50 accelerated by almost 1% last week following a strong uptrend stance, but experts claim that the upcoming week is expected to remain volatile and will track global cues such as IIP data scheduled for release on March 10, performance of global indices and US markets, concern over aggressive policy tightening by the US Federal Reserve (the Fed), rupee trend, FIIs flows, F&O Cues, and so on. Amid the volatile market, Uday Kotak CEO of Kotak Mahindra Bank has suggested investors invest in businesses which invest their capital conservatively.
Uday Kotak spoke about buffet nuggets through a Tweet and suggested 3 key investment advice for the investors. “Buffet nuggets: 1. Think of equity investing as buying businesses in their entirety, not as buying stocks. 2. Look to invest in businesses which invest their capital conservatively and which seek to exist forever. 3. Avoid impatient people and impatient companies,” said Uday Kotak through a Tweet.
“Addition: look for the businesses that are self financing I.e working on a negative working capital cycle . Those companies always have low assets and become a fountain of dividends in the later stages. That is a characteristic of a great businesses,” wrote one user.
“US treasury earned USD 32 Trillion in last decade 48% coming from individual IT while corp tax is mere 8 1/2%. India Copr tax at 25% while HNW 37%.
