Full page Ads by builders = no negative coverage. For all the lamenting about dirty politics, who's blowing the whistle on the rot in media?

Jayant Pai is part of the senior management team at PPFAS,one of the smallest mutual funds around.
Here are a couple of tweets he posted:
Narendra Modi will disappoint due to high expectations while Rahul Gandhi will disappoint despite zero expectations. #justsaying
— Jayant Pai (@jayantpai) September 15, 2013
And he followed it up with:
Today #NarendraModi is like an FMCG stock Good company but sky-high valuations. #RahulGandhi is like an infra stock priced for bankruptcy. — Jayant Pai (@jayantpai) September 15, 2013
So basically our friends from PPFAS want leaders with zero expectations who can surprise on the upside. Maybe in Jayant Pai we have a closet supporter of the Mamata Banerjees of the world !
Its apparent that Jayant Pai has imbibed the “value investing” principles of PPFAS.It is interesting to see the top 3 stocks by value (In Lakhs) of their PPFAS Long Term Value Fund as on Aug 2013:
| Maharashtra Scooters Limited | 1,481.20 |
| Mphasis Ltd | 1,529.61 |
| Noida Toll Bridge Co Ltd | 1,648.29 |
Two words come to my mind looking at this: “VALUE TRAP” !!
Anyways, a brief twitter war followed-as can be seen from the exchange below:
@alphaideas The word ‘crap’ may apply to your blogposts too. However I will let you know after reading the drivel that you write.

@alphaideas Riled up ? I want you to make a fool of yourself by continuing this conversation. Let the world know…
— Jayant Pai (@jayantpai) September 16, 2013
And let the world know the beautiful la la mind of Jayant Pai !!
Addendum:Debashis Basu,the Publisher & Editor of MoneyLife Magazine had this to say about Jayant Pai
@lordludus @alphaideas I had blocked this guy for tweeting something equally moronic to me 🙂
