Markets going up but....

With fears about Dubai World subsiding, the US markets seemed to be subsiding. The key indices were up by about 2%.
i succeeding in loosing my first $100 in the market.
Invested $100 more...looking primarily at Dell Equity options....
More on that later....

Let the trades begin.....

So finally decided to take the plunge into capital markets trading using the little that I have learnt in school and working with Breneman Winbush....
It might sound strange that having spent 6 in the industry I decided to invest in US markets when I am in school....:)..But I think my rationale was that i have never understood the capital markets and their fundamentals till now...
Ironically though, i have decided to trade on them using technical analysis....
This is a snapshot of my trades thus far......

1 trade on Dell options remains to be determined...
More on my trades later....

Henry Fund Snap-2009

Back Again.....

Been a really long time since I had the urge to log into blogger.com and ramble about my life, musings which somehow didnt make sense for a while.
But here I am again.
Why?
Well I think I know, its kind of complicated, but let me see if I can transform my self-prophesied concept into prose....
I think humans have this inherent nature to nurture, could be attributed to evolution.
Blogging is like nurturing a child, watching it grow and having satisfaction in your perseverance.
Been a tough 12 odd months for me. Tougher than I thought it would be. Hopefully the road ahead is less bumpy, but again, who knows. Life strangely has always managed to conjure up a concoction which has surprised me. We'll see what lies in store for me in the future.
But Im sure...something NEW is coming my way....so time to crank it up a notch folks..ROCK IT!!....

Tippie 9th in the world in Finance.......

So we are 9th in the world in Finance...
Tht's great news for the program, just shows the commitment of the faculty and staff, the success of the Henry Fund and the final placement of the finance course students....feels great.....

Commentary

The winter break is about to end. As I sit here in the premises of Widernet , in the University’s Communication Center, the lines of swing code sitting right next to the word file, glare at me. Its January 2009, a term at business school is already over.
Term I was fascinating, eventful and scary. It’s been a really long time since I have learnt so much in such short a time, in fact to be honest, its never happened earlier. Finance and accounting were great value-adds.
The coming term will be all the more challenging with the Henry Fund, CFA and the all important internship search. A lot depends on the internship, including the fate of my continuing at the school next year, with finances being a major concern. As of now I’m keeping my faith in my abilities, but very soon the Almighty will be summoned upon.....
