DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn March 2020, the stock markets witnessed an unprecedented crash bringing to an end the longest bull run in history. Within six weeks the markets declined nearly forty percent as measured by the leading BSE SENSEX and NIFTY indices. We have since been witnessing extreme price movements across commodities including Gold, Silver and Copper. Oil prices had crashed alongside stocks in Mar’20 to near zero levels, briefly though. The dollar index, which represents the strength of the US dollar against leading world currencies, is pointing to a sharp reversal. Markets the world over appear to be at a crucial juncture. It may be that a big finger from the sky pressed the factory reset button on the affairs of planet earth. The author reminds us that the long years of the bull market had numbed most investors to the risks of investing in equity. Yet, in the months preceding the crash, there were abundant signals of a market top ripe for a correction as the author points out. The markets are appearing to bounce back, but the trends would seem to suggest that the bear market may not be done yet. The weak bounce back of NIFTY BANK index post March’20 decline - given that the banking sector is a good proxy for the overall economy - is a sufficient pointer to what may be in store in the months to come. This book is an interesting and informative read for everyone curious to know what is going on with the markets and what makes the markets move the way it does. Growth and decay are both cyclical and inevitable as are phases of bull and bear markets. Great wealth is built for generations to come after a major market reset like this offering a lifetime opportunity to build lasting wealth for those with long term perspective.
