Chemical's ruin the beauty of Cuddalore

Yesterday I went to the city(according to me) of Cuddalore,where I lived,Studied,and born.I remembered the poet Kannadasan's saying ''Matram yenbathu Manida Thathuvum" which mean Change is the only thing that never changes,The Places which were considered as outskirts like Kumarapuram,where my school management runs a engineering has become the busiest placeand Thanks to cuddalore power company which intends to start 1320 MW imported coal power plant,but lots of critics trying to hinder the project ,ofcourse their concern must be issued,But that project is most needed at this bad powercut in state.There are other concerns which need to addressed ,Already Cuddalore Sipcot region has become one of the polluted region in world,My friend's dad is organising protest against these Chemical companies,he collected some samples of air and sent that to a testing centre at US,A shocking report came that it has carbon content about 45% which is quiet high.When there was a meeting and a rally of DMK in cuddalore Mrs.Kanimozhi visited the region and assured that she will take necessary steps.Lets hope for that as The influentional person in TN, She may take necessary steps.But nothing is certain. The water became contaminated in Thyagavalli region and also in pochimedu and the remaining places surrounding the places.Though we are developing industries we need a new technology and new ideas which will save our economy.

Google Chrome....Here I come


Google launched its so called Next generation browser,CHROME.No sooner it released i just downloaded the CHROME beta from google.com,Though its a freeware,it cant be shared like Mozilla you need to be download it like Yahoo messenger(No set up file available).I just downloaded the Google chrome....I could download very soon and I checked memory space took by Chrome.Oh My God itz 47.6 MB ,To my knowledge Chrome needs more memory than all other browsers,Even the latest version of Mozilla Firefox took only 24.30MB which I feel the best among all till date.
The disadvantage of Mozilla is ,The browser window will open only after 1 or 1.5 seconds when you double click and open the Mozilla....technically its called latency time..Its very less in GoogleChrome.
The biggget merit i found in Google Chrome is no need to traverse file-->add new tab to open a
 new tab...instead we can just click + symbol ( shown in figure)we can open the new tab


The frequently visited sites can be seen  in thumbnail view and those sites are loaded very fast than other sites.

The are two types of Browsers in Google Chrome ..
1.Normal window
2.Incognito window which never stores caches or passowords,never tracks ur history....u can use this for internet banking etc...

The speed is greater than or equal to mozilla

The worst parts in  google chrome is you have specify the domain name...like .com or .net...for eg. if u just type anna university in mozilla address bar the anna university  official website will be loaded....Itz the unique feature of Mozilla...but Itz not there in Chrome or any other browser...
The downloads are slow than mozilla.....
Yeah itz true the browser too is like orkut ....shows the same error message often.....But Chrome is not bad...i am using chrome instead of Internet Explorer

As a whole....Chrome is better than  Internet Explorer or Safari................but Not equivalent to my most favourite Mozilla firefox ...even Opera is better than this.....But You can use this browser instead of Internet Explorer..

Share Market..

I always wanted to invest my money on Shares...Though I have no money as of Now,Being so Bored I started collecting Information about the Sharemarket and those stuff,But I could'nt understand so many concepts in share markets.... I was reading Economic times and Business Today to know about share market ,the Real thing is one shouldn't read those without knowing the share market.After collecting few information I would like to post what i Learned..
First...I just now clearly learned What is a Share...The first time when a company needs a Huge capital, that a company’s certain %age of shares are issued to the public, it is by a process called the initial publicoffering (IPO). It is listed in market and its value varies accordingly by company's performance.


How can we invest in Shares.
The first way to Purchase shares is from the primary market (ie IPOs) I have seen these type of Ad everywhere almost once in week. Most IPOs these days do not have a fixed offer price. Instead they follow a method called the bookbuilding process, where the offer price is placed in a band or a range with the highest and the lowest value (refer to the newspaper clipping on this page).The public can bid for the shares at any price in the band specified. Once the bids come in, the company evaluates all the bids and decides on an offer price in that range. After the offer price is fixed, the company either allots its shares to the people who had applied for its shares or returns them their money.

The Other Way to Invest is By Seconday Markets....ie STOCK EXCHANGES

Once the offer price is fixed and the shares are issued to the people,stock exchanges enable the trading of shares for the general public. Once a stock is listed on an exchange, people can start trading in its shares. In a stock exchange the existing shareholders sell their shares to anyone who is willing to buy them at a price agreeable to both parties. Individuals cannot buy or sell shares in a stock exchange directly, they have to execute their transactions through authorised members of the stock exchange who are also called stock brokers.Even after these information I could'nt get some information. I went deeper into the working of the ShareMarket...but i could understand a little.. My dad said Sharemarket is a place where shares are sold and bought,Its like our koyambedu market..here vegetables ,there Share.Popular markets are NASDAQ,NYSE,BSE,NSE

What do the brokers do

After some work in net i found that,If you want to buy or sell a share, you should contact a broker. Each stock exchange has a limited set of brokers and these brokers contact each other using trading terminals to find out who is interested in the share you want to buy or sell. Brokers have terminals linked to the BSE or the NSE and they directly purchase or sell shares using these terminals.The entire transaction happens electronically or through websites like www.icicidirect.com,Sharekhan.com.Brokers may also authorise a sub-broker to conduct the transactions on behalf of them.Since brokers are providing a service they charge you for the same. Normally this payment is not a flat rate, but a commission of the transaction value.Some broking companies like Reliance Money has Flat rates like 500 per year.But there are some complaints about Reliance Money . Brokerages normally range from 0.5% to 1% for delivery-based transactions(long time transactions, will tell u later about this in brief) and from 0.10% to 0.25% for intra-day transactions.

Depositaries

Depositaries hold shares of investors, In India we have Two depositaries -National Securities Depository Ltd.,Central Depository Services Ltd. They hold shares and on request,in electronic form through a registered depository participant (DP). It can be compared with a bank as it holds securities in an account,transfers securities between accounts on the instruction of the account holder, facilitates the transfer of ownership without the account holder needing to handle securities and makes the safekeeping of shares easy.The agent through which a depositories interfaces with the investor is known as a depository participant. You can create a demat account with a DP some DP's are ICICI,AXIS(UTI),HSBC,I think SBI too, who will keep an account of all the shares you own. This is much like the banking system,where you just create an account and have a passbook which updates you on the money you own and the transactions you have made. In your demat account you own shares in an electronic format and your account gets updated as you buy and sell shares. Online trading account - We have to open an online trading account with any of the bank or financial trading system like ICICIdirect.com, 5paisa.com, Sharekhan.com etc. Their will be nominal annual charges. These charges vary from bank to bank but should not be more than Rs.1000 annually.After opening accounts with these DP's we can trade from our home.

Day trading and Delivery trading are the two main types of shares trading.
Day trading
Buying and selling of shares on daily basis is called day trading this is also called as Intra day trading. Whatever you buy today you have to sell it today very importantly during market hours that is 9.55 am to 3.30 pm (Indian time).
Delivery Trading
In Delivery Trading, as the name say, you have to take the delivery of shares and after getting these shares in you demat account you can sell them at anytime (or you can hold them till you want, there is no restriction). In delivery trading you need to have the amount required to buy share for example, if you want to buy 100 shares of Reliance at price 500 than you must have (100*500) Rs. 5000 in your account; once you purchased these shares will get deposited in your demat account (say after basically, trading day and 2 additional days). Then you can sell these shares when the price of these shares goes up or else you can sell whenever you want..

Some Jargons in Online Share trading

Open which means The first price at which the stock opens when market opens in the morning.
High it says,The stock price reached at the highest level in a day.
Low is the stock price reached the lowest level in a day.
Close ,the end The stock price at which it remains after the end of market timings or the final price of the stock when the market closes for a day.
Bid,The Buying price is called as Bid price.
Offer,The selling price is called offer price.
Bid Quantity ,The total number of shares available for buying is called Bid Quantity.
Offer Quantity ,The total number of shares available for selling is called Offer Quantity.
Transaction,One complete cycle of buying and selling of shares is called One Transaction.
Squaring off ,This term is used to complete one transaction. Means if you buy then have to sell (mean square off) and if you sell then you have to buy (means square off).
Limit Order ,In limit order the buying or selling price has to be mentioned and when the share price comes to that price then your order will get executed with the mentioned price by you
Market Order,When you put buy or sell price at market rate then the price get executes at the current rate of market. The market order get immediately executed at the current available price
