Play it right, we will end up making good money by December: Sandeep Tandon
“Quant Predictive Analytics Model shows there is a very high probability that by March we could see a lifetime high.. The easy phase of bull run got over in September 2021. But for the emerging markets, we are still in a bull run but in the difficult phase of the bull run. In the next two or three trading sessions, the market ideally should bottom out. Whenever there is a surge, try to prune down your exposure. That is the way you can make money in 2022. It is going to be an extremely difficult year.”
