It is very funny to know how the Stock Market operates; the only way one can make profit is from the other person’s loss. An investor is considered successful in the stock market if the shares of the company which he had bought cheap could be sold to an easy target at a much higher price. It is an art of making others a fool and reaping riches out of it. If we look at the shares of a company, actually some person would have started a company and worked hard to sustain it and then decided to go public in a view to expand it. Hence he sells the shares of the company in the market.
A smart investor make money by investing money without starting a company nor helping the company physically nor assisted the company to sell the product or sometimes even never know about product of the company. The investor essentially does nothing but only waits make profit at someone else’s loss. Stock market and Shares have been reduced to a game of gamble. Most of the investors lose while some gain. Many say that as long as investor go into the market willingly abiding the rules of the game, it’s fair that one person wins what another loses, but still, is that kind of profit worth to be proud of is the million dollar question????????
Earlier it was not so Shares and Stock Market was only for the retired and pensioners who would go through the prospectus of the company and gauge the quarterly balance sheet and then invested their Provident fund and Gratuity in the stock or buy shares to make some money from them and also see that the money is guarded safely. But now Stock Market is never safe for them as it is become an den of Gamblers.
A small story on how this stock market and share business works was sent to me by my friend, I would like to share it.
Once upon a time in a village, a man from another village announced to that he would buy monkeys for Rs 10 each. He explained to them that he is going to export them to Indonesia where they would be trained to pluck tender coconuts from trees. The villagers who were convinced and seeing that there were many monkeys in the village started catching
them...
The man bought thousands at Rs 10 and as supply started
to diminish, the villagers stopped their effort. The man further announced that he would now buy at Rs 20. This renewed the efforts of the villagers and they started catching monkeys again this time they went to the nearby villages also to catch. Soon the supply diminished even further and people started going back to their farms.
The man again increased the offer rate to Rs 25 and the monkeys became so little that it was an effort to even see a monkey, let alone catch it! The man now announced that he would buy monkeys at Rs 50! And the villages tried hard to catch a monkey which fell to their sight.
One day the man announced that he was to go to Indonesia to finalize the contract of supplying monkeys to them and his assistant would now buy on behalf of him. In the absence of the man, the assistant told the villagers. Look at all these monkeys in the big cage that the man has collected. I will sell them to you at Rs 35 and when the man returns from the city, you can sell it to him for Rs 50.
The villagers very excited and eager to make fast money squeezed up with all their savings and bought all the monkeys. Then they never saw the man nor his assistant, only monkeys everywhere!
This is how “Stock Market” works (Monkey Business you see)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
