The Usual...

The third successive day at home. And the only flip to it is that I feel too lazy to shave when at home. So, an ugly, difficult-to-handle stubble is what I get!

Have spent the days with phone, gtalk, blog and wondering on how would I get that excess thing called fat off me. A quick weight check tells me that I weigh perfect, but would like to pull some of that weight from my belly to the biceps. Who wouldnt!?

Today has been a day dedicated to the markets. It seems to have stabilized today, after a couple of days of running away to the land-of-never-before. My portfolio seems to have taken cue and doing the same. This is all thanks to the construction-pack trying to build sky scrapers, both literally and in the stock market. Reliance is always there, and today's news about Rel. Comm. acquiring another US based ethernet firm, Yipes, would help it boost it's prices further.

This comes on the back of Mastek acquiring an insurance firm, again a US based firm, for 10 million dollars, causing the stock to rise 15% today. Sold it off for a reasonable profit! The surprise of the day was Mr. Sudhakar Ram appearing on CNBC, talking about this acquisition. This acquisition is very much in line with Mastek's long term strategy of investing heavily on Insurance related Projects.

Lastly, I was able to complete the Cricket-Ratings Project, over the weekend and deliver the first workable version of the system. Still some way to go before we finish off the same though.
