Our share market experienced a totally new kind of
development in the trading. It watched both sides of a coin within two trading days.
On January 10,2011 we saw a huge selling pressure and a record fall 600 points
in the general index of Dhaka stock exchange within just 50 minutes of trading.
Again next day we find the other side of the coin when almost no seller was
found in case of most of the shares. The den which was 5367.11 points on
January 10, 2010, increased 6249.35 on the same date this year. But in a days
gap market index soared to 7512.09. The percentage change in one year stood at
39.9 from 16.40 within two consecutive trading days. In 2010 institutional
investors especially some banks and non bank financial institutions showed
their investment characteristics like general investors. Over last two years
the profit of most of the bank and financial institutions became two or three
times more than that of the previous years. This profit growth was attributed
to profit earned form investment in shares. Thus many banks and financial
institutions concentrated on share business instead of investing in their core
banking activities. In early December 2010 when general index reached the
record 8700 points many analysis expressed their concern about the overvaluation
and syndicate price hike. But that time our general investors were over inspired
by the gain from the market. It was seen that most regulatory devotions failed
to show down the unending market rally. In vesting people became more dependent
on rumors than fundamentals of the issue traded on the bounders-es. Insider traders
turned out to be big gainers. Now it is becoming clear to us that there are
many other factors that have bought the capital market on the verge of a
collapse. Many of us started blaming the regulators. It is a matter of great
regret that the sec the central bank and other shares holders are also blaming
to each other. This ultimately proves the lack of coordination among them in
policy making and policy implementation.
