ضربة حظ
May 10, 2008 by 7san

- While studying medicine, I found a new interest or hobby. Its very different than what I am studying. Its the stock market! I follow it, almost daily. Unless I am busy with exams. When I was in kuwait 2 years ago, I enrolled in a summer course about stocks and how to deal with them. I would not say I am an expert, I am not even half an expert . I still follow it though, and give my own predictions to my younger brother, who is actually loving the stock market and the selling and buying process. Anyway, few years back, before the stock market crashed, the market was losing a lot of points each day. I called my brother and told him to sell everything, especially that you have enough profit. He told me that I am going mad, but he said I will go ask our uncle and see what is his say on the matter. My uncle’s name is also Hasan.B, and he is really good with stocks. He asked him and my uncle laughed his arse off! And told him: Go tell Hasan to focus on his medical studies and leave this thing for the experts!! Few days later, the stock market crashed! And almost no one had the chance to sell! It crashed to the extreme that I was not even happy that my predictions were right. I went back in the summer to kuwait. My father told me he saw my uncle, my mother’s brother, in Al-3aza, and my uncle asked him how did I know that the market is going to crash? Does he have influential people giving him hot information or anything from that sort? My father told him; no, nothing like that. He just predicted it and it happened. And you know what? My father was right! It was only “ضربة حظ“.
Glitter is my name,
and borsa is my game ..
well,
not really..
But i do have influential ppl who tip me off ;-)
I do not need them;)
Politics.. now stock market lool you love the things I hate!
I don’t like stock markets.. i’d rather get securities or other safe instruments. ;p My mom’s uncle who died awal ams lost MILLIONS when the stock market crashed! ;\
am now worried what happend to ur brothers stocks:P
3asa he gaind his profit back or he ill regrat the fact that he didnt sell as ur predections told him
any way ksm is always about the luck
ShoSho: We differ a lot my friend, a lot;)
missy: There are some “safe” considered stocks. Investments are good as well. Ala yer7ama. I thought the bahrain market never crashed? Are you referring to the kuwaiti as well?
shahad: No, he made it all back and more. He is clever, but apparently not as much as his older brother! Luck has to do with almost everything, but I still believe logic plays the major part
I’m starting to get into stocks now allah i3afeeh umi walah. I am not even close to knowing much bas wala wanasa i’m getting interested in new things!
Hey welcome back!
I am lucky with stocks ;)
Chirp: It is very interesting! The funny thing is that I never entered the stock market, its all online!
Ra-1: Thanks! And el7mdela 3l salama. Thats a good thing, but I am sure your taking the right decisions as well
wow..I wish I knew more about stock market..I feel it’s all about luck!
Wow… 9ej luck…. !!
And sort of freaky too… maybe you have the power of seeing the future… oooooooooh…
Big pearls: Hmmm, I said and will say again; it does, but for a small degree only. If you do not have the brains then luck will benefit you once or maybe twice bes b3dain?
Hamitaf La B: yeah.. your future looks bright btw, with some bumpy roads, just keep fastening your seat belt!
Its fun for risk takers.
What happened afterwards? Did you stay put and waited for it go up back again or sold everything at the time?
Ansam: No we were not pressured to sell. So did not sell just waited and got all the profit back il7mdela.
Madry laish ma yesme3oun el7achi;\
Amethyst: Well to be honest cause I am no expert. My uncle has been doing this for years, why should he listen to me?
He is/was Kuwaiti. :)

bor9a is a foreign language to me
Learning more than one language is very helpful, is it not?
