Stock below Rs 200: Can this small-cap stock be the next Pidilite Industries?
Coming back to markets, on the cricket field, or in any walk of life, it’s rare to find the carbon copy or person with a similar skill set but sometimes you do
Former Team India Head Coach Ravi Shastri had special praise for former India Capitan MS Dhoni. He had said, “MS Dhoni was unreal. I have never seen a guy like him in my life. Whether he makes a zero or a hundred or lifts a World Cup or gets knocked out in the first round, it never mattered to him." I’m sure everyone would nod their head in affirmation that he was one of the best captains in cricketing history and it’s hard to find a rare gem pretty soon.
At this point, you must be wondering, are we reading a cricketing post or a stock market-related post?! It’s indeed a stock market-related post but just to draw an analogy, I’m still not able to sink in that great nail-biter win of the Indian men’s cricket team with Pakistan. Hence, the cricket element! Coming back to markets, on the cricket field, or in any walk of life, it’s rare to find the carbon copy or person with a similar skill set but sometimes you do, and as the quote goes, “When opportunity knocks on your door, always be willing to take a chance, because you never know how perfect something could turn out to be.”
