How to Find the Next Infosys

My eyes were stuck at a newspaper headline that read – “15 companies that can be the next Infosys”.

And then there was something I read online that said, “Find the next Infosys”.

You see, business media is replete with such claims that they know of the ways investors can find the next Infosys, or HDFC Bank, or L&T (or future blue chip stocks that don’t even exist now!).

How to Keep Your Head in a World Gone Mad

“The whole world is mad. Stocks will be dropping 30 percent, then rallying 20 percent, and dropping another 30 percent – that’s going to be the pattern. And whoever can’t live with that shouldn’t be buying equities at all.”

These are the words of noted investment guru Marc Faber, the author of The Gloom Boom & Doom Report.

Seeing the way stock markets are reacting these days, it does seem that the world has indeed gone mad.

But as Faber says, if you can’t live with the current uncertainty and volatility in the stock markets, you must not be buying stocks at all.
