Moneycontrol spl: Tharoor to chat on geo-political policies
Moneycontrol.com will be organising an online chat with him on Nov 21.

For all those who have wanted to understand India's position in the recession-hit world, here's your chance to speak directly to the man who's shaping our geo-political policies – Shashi Tharoor. Moneycontrol.com will be organising an online chat with him on Saturday, November 21, 2009 as part of its month-long 10th anniversary celebrations.

While the Internet savvy Tharoor has a large following on other networking websites, this is his first online chat. He will be chatting about 'Leveraging Internet to Reach Out'

Moneycontrol.com, Asia's largest financial website, turned 10 on November 5, 2009. And during its month-long celebrations, the site is giving its two million readers a chance to interact with the biggest thought leaders in the country.‪ ‪These chats have been a powerful medium for the investor community to engage with thought leaders.

Earlier in the month, biggies like Sunil Singhania of Reliance Mutual Fund, Shankar Sharma of First Global, Ridham Desai or Morgan Stanley, BSE Member Ramesh Damani and Anand Tandon of Brics chatted on the site.

Investors went home with smart investing lessons and useful perspectives on India as well. Singhania for instance gave out a simple message – keep investing simple. "If we wait for every risk to be out of the way, then we will never be able to invest. Have faith in India, its economy and good returns will be made."

Seconding that, Desai said that there could be several sectors that could deliver better than 15 per cent return notably financials, industrials and energy.

A common question in most chats – how to be successful in the markets. Sharma said, "Read, read, read. Get your ego out of the way. Have an open mind and think differently from the herd."

Tandon, too, believes the same, "Read a lot and take in various views. Be slow in coming to conclusions, and try and develop a framework that appeals to you. Keep testing your assumptions to see if they turned out right. Bull markets makes every bull a genius but if the assumptions you made were wrong, then you still have not figured it out."

Some of the upcoming chats include Steve Forbes, Hemanth Luthra, Harsh Mariwala and Punita Kumar Sinha. You can get the upcoming chat schedule here.
