I had been wanting to write about my investments for long and it has just worked in fits and starts. Now that i have started to blog much more consistently, i plan to write briefly about all the stocks and mutual funds that i have invested in. Also plan to put my portfolio on display here and keep updating the price changes monthly (or fortnightly if possible). I dont trade in stocks and most of my investments are for long time, unless of course the stock is on a tear and reaches some astronomical highs in a short period of time and thus running far away from its objectives. Or if the fundamentals are really screwed up after i have taken a position, then only i intend to sell them off.
Since i post almost 2-3 posts daily, there is a chance of such posts running into the next page in a couple of days. So, i will try to keep the post sticky till i put up my position in the next stock that i hold. To ensure that you dont need to search through all the pages, i have consolidate all the investments in sub-domains as given below

Currently i have a portfolio of 14 stocks and i will be writing about each one of them; one after another. Ya, its a big number and i intend to prune it down, but then lets see how things pan out. Ideally, i would like to have positions in just around 10 stocks.
I will share 4 things about my position in the the stock.
- The date at which i bought it.
- The price at which it was bought.
- Current price.
- Loss/profit if any.
