Its always better to trade yourself instead of depending on mutual funds and other fund managers. I do have certain picks which will fetch you in long run. Like for example Radico Khaitan at current levels is very attractive, SRF, Melstar Information Technologies etc. The best thing is to get a demat and do it yourself carefully. But for the mean time, watch out sensex dipping to 9000 - 9500 levels and then you can pick the above mentioned stocks which will definately give you a return of 100% in a six month horizon.
