A very sincere thanks to Mr. H.P. Singh for sparing out some precious time out of his very busy schedule and sharing his great thoughts with us which would inspire many yongsters who wan to be tomorrow's entrepreneurs.
Lets read what he has to say about business.
The few things to be considered to carry on a business successfully are initial investments, day to day costs involved, quality products, and skilled employees. Different strategies are to be adopted to carry on a business activity which include moving according to market trends, innovations, and remarkable inventory levels to be maintained.
The main concern these days is that whether the human behaviour is much less rational than has been assumed. Whether be the customers or employees – all behave in a different manner in different situations. Therefore, understanding what each member in various events of organisation thinks, what he feels, what he thinks about the internal and external activities becomes important. A thorough study about these elements is essential for the overall success of the organisation.
The need is to shift away from the belief that we can predict and control behaviour of others. After all what is normal is framed by our view of reality. The main funda behind success is to train the employees with new techniques, trends, innovative methods to go according to market trends and improve efficiency, cost cutting for certain activities. In order to retain the main workforce various bonus schemes are to be initiated at times, emergency leaves to be provided.
The managers are to be given the authority to do something if they are held responsible for any task. The integrity lies in hand of the manager. A manager is the person who can take the business to new heights. He should have the ability of properly handling the manpower, upbrade the employees.

All of us find reasons before making any kind of investments. A couple of days ago, I was in the same dilemma and I was asking myself the reasons why I should buy Gold. Here, I am listing a few of them that I had in my mind to justify my thought of investing in gold and also, while browsing on the internet, I came across some interesting reasons behind why at all should one invest in gold. However, let me warn you that I do not have any trading interest in gold, but do have an investment interest in a company called Deccan Gold which is the only gold company listed in India. Here are the reasons:
1. According to experts, the total world gold production is decreasing. I was surprised ? increasing selling prices make it attractive to search so production should increase. This is what happens in theory, but it is getting to be more difficult to prospect, mine and produce gold.
2. The gestation period even for gold which is spotted is quite long. According to some experts it is as high as 10 years. Hence gold mining companies? prices go up over long periods and in a lumpy kind of a fashion. If gold is found it goes up, if mining starts prices go up, if production starts ? prices go up. So be careful while buying a gold mining company.
3. Chinese demand is likely to go through the roof. Very few people understand the Chinese economy. If the population does not trust its currency, they are likely to keep their money in gold! The Chinese government had banned the population from owning gold for a very long time. Obviously once the ban gets lifted buying will start (it happened in US if you remember). It may take 2-4 years by which time the retail network to sell gold to the whole Chinese population is set up. Once it is set up, prices will boom.
4. Indian demand is difficult to predict. However, there is some talk of Jewelers suicide in Kerala (with prices rising, consumption is going down, so shopkeepers are dying). However, there is a huge ?wannabe? population which will keep buying and chase prices! Be that as it may, selling may not be enough to exceed demand ? another cause for prices to go up.
5. Investment demand is high: All fresh bankers are busy selling gold mutual funds. This is a funny situation where the price is going up because the fund is buying. People are buying gold ETF/regular funds which is causing gold prices to go up! Case of tiger chasing its tail.
6. Governments attitude towards gold can be foolish and slow. The rich countries which have a lot of gold (including IMF) have a pact wherein they will not sell more than 400 Tonnes a year (not sure about the figure). This will restrict supply on the one hand, but mutual fund demand will drive the prices.
7. Bank relationship managers are pushing gold mutual funds, websites are screaming that gold is a good buy, people without understanding of interest, compounding, etc. think this is a great ideal This almost blind and noisy screaming will push prices high. Most fund managers are buying with a vengeance!
So, what is your view on investing in Gold? Your feedback is always appreciated. Do give your views in the Comments Section below.
