First the `Cyprus issue and then DMK,s pull out from UPA II.. Cyprus's bail out all of a sudden amidst the spectacle of the American markets reaching all time highs served a grim reminder that there could be more ugly surprises.on the European front. We are once again in risk off mode. Cyprus Govt's decision to tax bank depositors has not been taken well. and will generate lot of resentment if retail depositors are not let off the hook.
At any rate its impact will only be limited considering the size and profile of the country.
At home finally DMK has done what it intended to do, i.e.withdraw from UPA. From its recent posturing it never appeared that it was comfortable supporting UPA. Looks like at the moment the numbers for UPA are comfortable enough to ensure full term till 2014..
The utter panic in markets today should clear soon and situation should get normal.
However severe damage has been suffered by midcaps. All those glorious midcaps are at abysmal levels and it is not uncommon to see a midcap stock at a tenth of it's peak levels in 2008. For midcaps the clock has turned a full decade back. This is far greater damage than one could imagine. It will take a very very long time for interest to return to these.
But of course FII inflow could change all that. And vice versa any outflow would give us the horrors we will remember for a long time.
In line with what I mentioned in my previous post, I sold IVRCL and Reuka Sugar to cut my losses.
Till my next
Happy investing
