This was a week with high volatility where fear of unknown massively impacted stock prices of 3 stocks (DHFL, Yes Bank & Infibeam).
NSE
Stock price of DHFL dropped 55% since 21 September when DSP Mutual Fund sold AAA-rated bonds of DHFL at a yield of 11 percent. Yes Bank tumbled 54% from it's all time high after RBI barred Rana Kapoor from continuing his stint as Chairman of Yes Bank. Stock price of Infibeam fell by 71% on 28 September after a WhatsApp message raising concerns about their accounting practices went viral.
Amidst fear and speculation, we wrote on What makes a great investor? We concluded that great investors do not rush into decisions, stick to long term investing plan and have the ability to ignore the market noise.
All time is uncertain. It was uncertain back in 2007, we just didn't know it was uncertain. It was uncertain on October 18th, 1987, you just didn't know it.
