"WHAT COULD BE THE IMPACT OF ANIL AMBANI DROPPING HIS NAME FROM THE ADAG CORPORATE LOGO?"
Below is a news item from business-standard to give some hints to viewers to write their comments and views.
Anil drops ADAG from corporate logo |
BS Reporter / Mumbai December 31, 2010, 1:17 IST |
Anil Ambani has dropped his name from the corporate logo for Reliance Anil Dhirubhai Ambani group, set up after the split of the Reliance empire in 2005.
The line ‘Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group’, written under the logo, has made way for the just the company name. It will now on be known as the Reliance Group. The colour of the logo, too, has been changed from light blue to navy blue. And the red coloured arrow of the brand has been transformed to a triangle.
The design change has been done by Singapore-based Bonsey Design.
The websites of the group are already showcasing the new identity.
Head (branding) of the group, Sanjay Behl says, "Reliance is a rightful-brand for us. We are just contemporising it". He says the group is now adding the Reliance master brand focus to Anil Ambani group of companies.He said the ADAG group’s identity remains, but it will not be the master brand. The difference with the other Reliance, of Mukesh Ambani, is stylistic. While Mukesh Ambani-led Reliance is written in small letters, the ADAG Reliance is in capitals.
Behl said the focus of rebranding is to strengthen the brand identity and de-clutter it. In terms of magnitude, this will be much larger than the last branding exercise the group did in 2006.
The group now works in seven sectors with almost 27 businesses and most of these are consumer-facing ones.
About 250 million people are being contacted by some Reliance business or the other almost on a daily basis.
S P Tulsian, an independent stock analyst said this agreement must have been reached when the non-compete clause was dismantled between the brothers last year.
"Anil Ambani is superstitious, so he must have waited for the right time. But this does not mean there is any merger with his brother (Mukesh) and there will be no impact on markets," he says.

New FREE Feature in our INVESTORS SERVICES: Get ALERTS for "Wealth Destroying Stocks"
New FREE Feature in our INVESTORS SERVICES:
Alert for Negative List (Wealth Destroying) Stocks-
Majority of investors have had the bitter experience of getting stuck into stocks that go down consistently and considerably from their buy price and seldom recover, or recover above their purchase price when it has been so many years that they have already lost on inflation, and interest rates on their capital as well as the opportunity costs that they would have earned out of other investments.
At MEGHA INVESTMENTS AND RESEARCH, our approach to investing has always given paramount importance to Warren Buffets Philosophy of investing. He said: Rule no.1 is to Never lose money and Rule no.2 is to Never forget rule no.1. Our version of this rule can be: “Return of Capital is important than Return on Capital”.
Times and again we have always Alerted our visitors about the stocks that destroy their wealth. From now we have made this approach and part of our activity as –A Feature in our “Services for Investors”
Thus from now on any one activating any of our “Investor based Services” will get this Negative List of WEALTH DESTROYING STOCKS probably with lower targets as well.
Why Do you at all Need “Alert for Wealth Destroying stocks”?

About correction and more-2
(Please click on below link to Read "correction and more -part 1"
http://www.meghainvestments.com/2010/11/about-market-correction-and-more.html Many investors complained us that we didn’t throw enough light on ‘correction’ thing in our previous post.
To go further into anything which has attributes of understanding we must define it.
What is the meaning of correction?
{
We take it like this. It says ‘correction’ literally meaning ‘something of a process or act of correcting i.e. making it right which is or was hitherto wrong. But when we apply this definition or meaning to word correction and its use in markets, we do not see integrity.
}
{Because the word is used only for declines in prices and it is never used when prices are rising! (This translates that when markets rise after falling on wrong note, it should be called a correction!)}
……This is interesting with respect to how we want to understand the meaning. Mind it. This is not a time pass or ‘intellectual jargon busting’. We believe this whole contemplation will take us through the understanding of markets and its behaviors…….
So when there is any excess of increase in markets, it is ‘incorrect’ and need to decline i.e correct.

About Market Correction and more
About correction and more-
We were enticed to write this article, by the feeling of amazement the investors were experiencing when they see several stocks making yearly and new lows without making any noise!
They were amazed to see their many of the hi-performer stocks that were analyst favorites and giving them a kick n ride while the hay period of the markets and when it was anything but green on the stock screens.
Correction is a word that is known by all in the market.
You will see any ‘averagely intelligent’ investor saying ‘he will buy in correction’ and that ‘he is waiting’.
But that never happens. Either he jumps at the last movement out of impatience or steers clear by fear of further correction and aversion and pain of notional loss.
Basically, most investors want their stock only to go up from their buy price. Otherwise they will not invest! Or the market is not perfect then!
Why this does happens?
The fact is that they are ignorant and un-knowledgeable. This might sound harsh. But we are not here to please anybody!
Investors simply do not understand when to stay in, when to wait for correction and when to jump in. We will also emphasize the importance of ‘what’ in all these along with ‘how’. Because ‘what’ is what the bottom-line come in the market.
Some of them may know that correction is an opportunity (it is an all-together different subject how to tell a transient correction and a beginning of bear phase. I said ‘beginning’, because as such the bear phase in its form is a boon to investors for a 3 year horizon. We will discuss about it in other article.
So, I believe there are there always a bear phase and correction going on in market! How?
Let’s understand it this way, there are 3 types of correction or bear phases. Any one or more of them is always going on.
- For the whole market, which most of us are aware such corrections
The following two might sound unfamiliar to you,
- Correction for a particular sector, and
- Correction in a particular stock

SKS Microfinance debacle- Some contemplations and comprehensions
What happened with sks microfinance stock debacle and investors losing money is nothing new in stock markets.
The basis of such disasters lies in the craze of investors for their constant striving of ‘new’ and ‘fancy’ (so-called) investment ideas.
Always remember, investors who simply jump to grab every ‘new thing’ on markets, WITHOUT UNDERSTANDING THE ECONOMICS OF THE BUSINESS AND LONG-TERM SUSTAINABILITY OF ITS MODEL are bound to lose money. Long term sustainability is very crucial; even for short term performance of the stocks. Because you never know when a smart investor start exiting and a smart trader start shorting. Its just a matter of time. And you can never figure out when.
This has happened with dot coms companies. You can take example of praj which made short term wealth for investors but since has eroded more than similar amount of wealth. We have many similar examples.
“In fact I would go forward and say common investors (including HNIs), to leave this area of investment to ‘hi-fi’ speculators/investors like the VC funds, PE funds, FIIs and such other sophisticated hard-core professional investors and traders.”

Article on Sugar Sector
SUGAR –
INTRODUCTION TO SUGAR:
Sugar is an informal term for a class of edible crystalline carbohydrates, mainly sucrose, lactose, and fructose characterized by a sweet flavor. In food, sugar almost exclusively refers to sucrose, which primarily comes from sugar cane and sugar beet.
Other sugars are used in industrial food preparation, but are usually known by more specific names—glucose, fructose or fruit sugar, high fructose corn syrup, etc.
SUGAR PLANTS CULTIVATION:
Sugar cane is a hot weather plant, which is why the largest growing areas are in South Asia, Brazil, the Caribbean Basin and the southern United States. Sugar beets are grown in cool temperate zones such as the northern Great Plains, Germany and France. Both cane and beets must be processed into raw sugar very soon after the plants are harvested or else their sugar content will drop precipitously.

PORTFOLIO INVESTING: The KEY TO SUPERIOR RETURNS in market
Approach and attitude for PORTFOLIO INVESTING:
The KEY TO SUPERIOR RETURNS with ADEQUATE DIVERSIFICATION:
Don’t think this is some hi-fi, hni type, academic or finance-jargon!
In our view, portfolio investing is simply a strategy, or attitude or approach towards investments. For example, you want to invest. And by that we don’t only mean investment in equities (stock-markets). We mean, with stocks, investment into debt, real estate, mutual funds, commodities, local/indigenous businesses (we will explain this letter on).

Investment Gems from book "Rich Dad's Guide to Investing"
Introduction to a New Initiative from MEGHA INVESTMENTS AND RESEARCH team:
Friends and readers,
I am very glad to present to you the first step towards a new initiative from Megha Investments and Research.
It is in the form of invaluable excerpts from books and personalities of high esteem, knowledge and vision in the world of investing, finances, business and economy.
Many of you have asked us about our secret of success. And here we present one of the very powerful and important facet of it. We do extensive reading and out of it many times there is only a single line of lesson or learning for us from study of a book of a thousand page. While many times we find a well of lessons from a book as tiny as 20 or 50 page. It is not that we have a line of a lesson or learnings of a hundred pages. Because we do not study books to learn from page 1 to page last. It is the extract mainly. It is those few gems, for some books it is those few lines only; that we earn while doing the task of studying a book. Yes, earn is the word we use. Because when you study a book out of seriousness and perseverance, whatever you learn, you’ve earned it.
Any ways, from now on, under this ‘tag’ of ‘book excerpts’, we will present excerpts and comments wherever necessary, from the books that we study and feel beneficial to the investor community.
Regards,
Yogesh Raval,
Manager

BASF INDIA LTD- Safe Return of 60% in less than 3 Months
Click on the Link Below to Read Original Recommendation Article-
Then after as well, we have repeatedly recommended on our FREESTOCKIDEA group.

Today, it has hit New high of Rs.676.20.
We strongly believe, after a rise of as much as 60% rise (from 420 to 676.20), the stock has potential to move further upward to achieve 100%+ return from our recommendation rate.
Our underlying belief in equity research is very simple- Give less recommendation, with strong argument and repeat it.
