A cautionary tale

The old Wall Street adage is “Buy on Rumors, Sell on News”

Many people have lost money following this adage.

Take for example, Ramsarup Industries.In June 2010, a rumor spread that it is a takeover candidate for Arcelor Mittal.The stock shot up to around Rs.80.85.

There was no basis for that rumor.As truth came out and the dust settled, the stock drifted downwards and is now selling at Rs.4.5 !!
