Elusive Market – Kaushal Kishore

 

In the stock market’s twisted game,

“Buy low, sell high” seems elusive claim…

Prices tumble when shares are bought,

Soars again when sold, as if for naught…

.

Set a stop-loss, and think you’ll be fine,

Yet fate aligns with that dreaded line…

If you book profit, and doubt creeps in,

Regret follows loss, a lingering spin…

.

If you walk away, the FOMO will sting,

Opportunity loss, despite wisdom’s ring…

If all seem to gain, why aren’t you too?

Drawing you back to the bustling view…

.

Like water’s gleam, they shimmer bright

Only to vanish by the morning’s sight…

Here, ‘sentiment’ is in mind, not in heart,

Directing trades, with a measured art…

.

Experts aplenty, with wisdom to spare,

Voices so confident, beyond all compare…

If Ambani, Adani, had foreseen the way,

Perhaps richer rewards for all would stay…

.

One crow swoops in; the others descend,

Caws fill the air as flocks blend and bend…

Yet let a “Hindenburg” make its sound,

And the fear’s swift wings flee all around…

.

But the patient cuckoos bide their time,

While the chaos masks their quiet climb…

In the borrowed nests, their plans unfold,

In silence, they watch their fortune mold…

.

So heed the soft whispers, not the roar,

In patience lies the trader’s dreamy lore…

Unsought gains may yet be found in time,

When chaotic din yields to a lyrical rhyme…

.

Still performing after 43 years, (with a short break-up before getting back together) British pop music rarely if ever got better than Tears For Fears.

Since the talented duo arrived in the charts with the album ‘The Hurting’ in 1983, they have gone from strength to strength.

I could fill a whole post with the songs of theirs that I love, but will choose this 1985 hit as a definitive example of their distinctive sound.

The lyrics are on the video.

At the age of 81, American singer and guitarist George Benson is still recording and performing. I first heard of him as a Jazz-influenced guitarist in the mid-1970s, and bought his album ‘Breezin’ in 1976.

He started to become better known as a vocalist, and crossed genres from Jazz into Soul, then mainstream Pop.

I have picked this 1981 song as it often still pops into my head, and is typical of the kind of song that made him so successful.
