The Nifty P/E is at 22.89 as of 01st October.
It has exceeded these levels only during the bubble crashes of 2000 and 2008. In 2004, it briefly flirted above this level before falling.
We have 2 scenarios now:
1. It keeps rising to about 28 creating a bubble like scenario. It would break the previous high or thereabouts and the a mega fall.
2. Correct from anywhere here to 5200 zone. Every time it corrects, it comes down to a P/E of 14-16 which would be equivalent to 3200-3600 range.
Right now, the liquidity is gushing with FIIs pumping in 1000 crores daily. I have not seen even in the earlier bull run.
We have the dollar carry trade like the yen carry trade with hedge funds borrowing at low interest rates in the US and leveraging these dollars in India.
These positions will be unwound when the dollar strengthens, (it would take more rupees to buy the same dollars invested) or interest rates rise in the US.
The dollex is showing some signs of rebound on Bernanke comments. Interest rates rising in US will take some more time.
Troubles in China or at home in US could reverse the flows.
Time not to invest aggressively and keep taking profits with trailing stop losses. I would keep a stop loss of 4900 for my investments.
SIR I BELIEVE THAT MARKET WILL CRASH FOLLOWING A EUPHORIC ENVIRONMENT MORE OR LESS THAN 2008 BUT THERE SHOULD BE EUPHORIC PHASE - WEEK HANDS OF RETAIL PUBLIC NOW AS OF THINK THERE IS NO SIGN OF EUPHORIA OR ANY KIND OF MADNESS. SENSEX - 30000 AND NIFTY 8500 THEN ONLY RETAIL PUBLIC WILL JUMP. AS YOU KNOW. AND PE CORPORATE WILL START POSTING HIGHER EARNINGS MANAGING PE AT 22-30 LEVELS
