Modern Day Law of Inertia..
These days law of inertia is at its peak of use and is even reaping huge benefits for those who are practicing it!!Might sound wierd but its true!
Law Of Inertia:-A body persists in its state of rest or motion unless it is acted upon by unbalanced external force.
Modern day implication of this law:-You continue doing nothing and nothing will fire against you.
i.e you do something and something will fire against you!!!!!
This view can be supported by list of facts..... and they go as follows:-
1)Barack Obama(from Promise to Power)-won nobel prize for doing....???It became debate topic!
1)Barack Obama(from Promise to Power)-won nobel prize for doing....???It became debate topic!
2)Gold prices-Commodity prices are on highs and so is Yellow metal.It is being joked that Gold prices will surpass Platinum prices!Anyways our contribution in direct manner to rise in Gold price is nil but holders of Gold(major retail public)are making decent sum out of rise....i.e by doing nothing but just (continuing) subscribing to mantra of "hold-gold"!
3)Wake Up Sid!! :-This recent movie,as told to me,is all @ character named Siddharth who is doing nothing.Movie made decent earnings on Box office by making its character do nothing!!
4)Vodafone Add:- The Famous Hutch Dog was given the Job of just following the Boy wherever he goes.He did his Job religiously but still he was laid off!! Now his place is taken by "Zoo-Zoo" who do nothing other than just using Vodafone services itself.Yet "Zoo-Zoo"are still in job by doing nothing!!
5)Sensex Soars:-Government did everything to bring Sensex back on track in Dec 2008 - Feb 2009 by giving stimulus packages,changing CRR rate,Repo rate,Reverse-repo rates and all kind of these big things which most of us don't understand but Sensex did not rise.Post March Government started to prepare for elections and forgot @ stock markets and to everybodies surprise markets started to soar.Reached 17500 levels when government is doing nothing!!!!
6)Bonus Shares:- When R-Power issue had come, people subscribed to it in bulk.Some people even opened new demat accounts.They took all pains and efforts of making the money available for issue subscription.When issue opened and stock got listed....... need to say nothing... rest is all history!!They did something and got nothing!
But today R-stock holders got 1:1 bonus for doing nothing!!
7)"Hold the Drink" :- When you buy some good front-runner stock hold the stock as you "hold the drink" to make money,as some wise people say.But still some people made all kind of calculations when market breached levels of 4500 and forecasted that markets are geared to plunge.On this study they liquidated their positions also.Today markets stand at 5200 levels!!People did something and got nothing!!
On Flip side there is a camp of people which continues to hold good,front-runner stocks since last fall and are sitting on huge profits!!These people made good money by doing nothing!!
Many more examples but for now these many are ok i suppose.
Disclaimer:-I know that by writing this blog i did something as per "Modern day law of Inertia" so i am supposed to be ready for something that will fire against me!! But for your betterment i want to say that don't change the way you act(i.e continue holding or liquidating the position) by reading this blog because then you will also be at recieveing end as per "Modern Day Law of Inertia!!"
No offences meant-just enjoy.
