Buying cheap stocks!

The perennial search for quick money takes us through lot of unknown routes.

It takes a lot of hard work, luck, government lobbying, team building – to create companies like Tata Steel, Hdfc, TCS, Infosys, Reliance, Honda Motors. It takes years, if not decades to create good companies too!

However a few people feel (and they are fed such nonsense by the ads) – pick up a penny stock (also called micro cap) – and it will double in a few months. One ad about which I had written about earlier gives you a game plan by which your US $ 200 becomes a few million – and how you do not need a Retirement Plan at all!

Only if life were so simple! Alas, it is not so. Not so at all!

Cheap stocks – by whatever name called are cheap because:

– NOBODY IS BUYING THEM!
– NOBODY ELSE IS talking to those companies, analysts do not track it, responsible media does not know about them, their boards are unknown,….
-NOBODY IS interested in them! – these are companies which are so small that it does not excite big investors, mutual funds, life insurance companies, etc.

Leave such companies to the big people – let the Enams, JM, Dsp, Kotaks of the world invest in such companies.
If you do not know how to manage your money, being a Venture capitalist is not a great idea, what say?
