This is one of the most sought after season for aggressive short term investors. Investors are trying to buy as much of gold,, which is soaring for the record heights recently to nearly $1100 an ounce.
Investors are now trying to make very short term profits from stock markets and trying to reinvest in high returns commodities such as gold.
Hence today's 500 points up in the Sensex doesn't mean that positive factor is back in the market. Investors who are really interested in long term investments (1-2 years) should enter the market now. But this is not a good time for entering for real aggressive short term investors!
Sensex will stay in the range of 16000-17000 till Q1 2010. Higher volatility may affect the market sentiments in short term (say 3-6 months).
