FEW GOOD STOCKS

It is difficult to imagine now, a few months back we were cruising at a rate of 9 percent growth, now it is a dismal 7 percent and we are trying hard to get to that figure. Inflation is at high 12 percent, crude price has shown some funny momentum but hopefully now settled at below 110 dollar per barrel. Nobody, including market pundits has anything concrete to forward their opinions on stock market. It requires braveness to pick up stocks at this juncture, especially for small investors. We don’t have much clue on what is going on there. Recently I have come across articles in which few stocks were identified which don’t have direct impact of the present economic scenario. I agreed to some extent, to their suggestions, though I believe no stock is secure from the current world economic scenario. I think it will be better to forward their recommendations for the perusal of small investors.
The stocks are
CRISIL
EDUCOMP SOLUTION

KALINDEE RAIL NIRMAN
PRIME FOCUS
TULIP TELECOM
VAKARANGEE SOFTWARES
The article also listed seven factors to look for in stocks to beat the slowdown. One can go through the article, which will also enable a small investor to pick up few more stocks other than the above listed.
Some articles are still relevant though may be two issues old.
