This car is giving me a lot of trouble lately\u201d said Prashant with a dejected look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWell why don\u2019t you buy a new one?\u201d asked Suhass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI cannot afford a take a car loan now as I have many other commitments. Besides I will get only 2 lacs for this 8 year old car now so I have to chip in atleast 3 lacs more from my pocket\u201d replied Prashant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWell don\u2019t worry. I have a confirmed share recommendation .You can just sell off your car and invest this 2 lacs in XYZ stock. It is going to increase by 5 times in next 6 months as its biggest competitor is planning to take over it. So it you invest 2 lacs you will easily get around 8 to 10 lacs in next 6 months. I think you can easily buy a sedan instead of a hatchback with that kind of cash in hand\u201d replied Suhass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Taking Suhass\u2019s advice seriously, Prashant sold off his car for 2 lacs the next day and invested the amount in XYZ stock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After a month as a result of market correction, the stock lost as much 60% of its value. With this the total value of Prashant\u2019s investment fell to Rs.80,000 from 2 lacs. Struck by panic he decides to check with Suhass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s going down continuously. What should I do now?\u201d asked Prashant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cDon\u2019t worry it is just falling with the market correction. Just wait for 3 months and see it will not only bounce back but also give you 5 times return\u201d assured Suhass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After 3 months the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.equentis.com\/blog\/reading-stock-charts-the-basics\/\">stock price<\/a> of XYZ stock fell further by 60% reducing the total value of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.researchandranking.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">investment<\/a>&nbsp; to Rs.32000\/-<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To save whatever was left, Prashant decided to sell off the stock and salvage Rs.32000\/-.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The above story is nothing new. It has been played out countless times. There are thousands of Prashants out there who have been misled by the generic share recommendations offered by office collegues, friends, relatives, Whatsapp group messages and TV channels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Stay Away From Free Share Recommendations<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Most people have a tendency to invest in recommendations. However, what they fail to realize is that such share recommendations are incomplete and incorrect. In many cases, such share recommendations are deliberately shared by scamsters with a malicious intent of artificially manipulating the price and trapping innocent investors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you really want to create money from stock markets, ignore free share recommendations provided by self-proclaimed market experts. Instead, opt for share recommendations offered by a professional <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.equentis.com\/blog\/what-is-financial-advisory-complete-guide\/\" title=\"financial advisory\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"548\">financial advisory<\/a> service as they are best suited to offer you correct investment advice on the basis of thorough
