• Yet another Regulator rather Price controller on the bourses, SEBI, its chairman also heard saying that they are perplexed by increased participation from new lot of investors and increasing volume is a cause of concern for them.
• Have any one heard any such smart commentary from regulators of U.S?
• They should worry more than any one else on this earth as prices are sky rocketing there, far beyond anyone’s guess, but they do not interfere in developed and well regulated markets there and never ever interfere in price discovery mechanism on the bourses which Indians investors feel is hijacked by lots of rules and regulations implemented during last two and half years.
• Every frequent dose of rules impositions in the capital market in India has developed a new idiom saying they are developing ease of Non-doing Business rather than exactly opposite to what Namo Govt wants.
