Thanks to Teller. In a Democratic Country every citizen have right to support a party and it's candidate. Here my point is don't capare a share with a candidate, it go up come down, is misleading the members

We are not talking about Body Mass Index of individuals and forecasting which sector would perform, its based on the policies of the individual. Remember the Mahaweli development project which was originally planned to be executed over 15 years was completed by Gamini Dissanayake in 5 years.
People are confident that development & investment will be fast tracked under Gota's leadership. When development is fast tracked figure out which sector is poised to do well.
If there was a capable leader so much could have been achieved over the last four years!

Have you forgotten the biggest scam in the post independence history of Sri Lanka "the CB bond scam". Who was the mastermind behind it and who protected Arjun Mahendran? Do you think that he will ever be brought back to Sri Lanka in the absence of an extradition treaty between S'pore & SL? Don't the people of SL have the right to know the facts?
Can you quantify the long term massive loss to the country that runs into several billions?
Who is the main culprit behind the CB scam??????
Lotus Tower issue has been referred to the Chinese Embassy for clarification & response by the opposition according to 'daily mirror".

What do you all think ?

My guess is Gota has a marginal chance of winning whoever contests from other parties, but still too early to predict 100%. Sajith will be a better contender from UNP if nominations allowed.

Gota victory and possibilities will definitely provide a boost to the market with local Investors. But to get Foreign participation and become very active market, it will take more time.

Our market is trading at PE 7, whereas many other markets are way above. In India its around 27 and many south asian markets above 15. So many of our shares have the potential to gain 100% easily, but need enough funds and retailers to come back.

GR is the only saviour for the ailing stock market. The chances of green candidate winning is rather remote, but if it does happen the market will continue in its sluggish mode like in the past four years.
Its a pity that people who want to make money in the stock market and at the same time being critical of GR don't realize this fact.

Though GR is a modest candidate with open and modern views on economy specially after his exposure to US, but MR and some his close associates still think 50 years back and think of nationalisation and Govt running business. They talk about taking back Hambanthota port, keeping Srilankan Airline under Govt etc which are economic disasters. They are good play ground for Govt Corruption when they are kept under politicians.

THAT IS THE MAJOR WORRY WITH A GOTA led Govt, but MR equally powerful and where GOTA will not try to take independent decisions due to close link. Else it is known and accepted they are super Bunch of managers together. But their view on privatisation is a very negative.

In my opinion they will act prudently regarding privatisation.
They would also adopt a balanced foreign policy learning from past mistakes and take the country forward focusing and fast tracking development & investments which will benefit the economy and in turn the ailing corporate sector & CSE. In today's competitive world every hour is precious but the present guys wasted four years doing sweet nothing and even did not take national security seriously.

People just forgot what happened before 2015. was it a developed country back then. Anyone remember the fear we had to raise voice against injustice? In government sector, only those with the Blue certificate (Nil balakaya) got jobs. Some enterprises’ interviews were held at Carlton house. How many state vehicles and security personnel escorted even Municipal councilors? Tourists were raped and murdered by political links. Many used baby’s name to avoid traffic charges. EPF was about to be turned into a pension. Banners, posters everywhere around. Even Flight attendents were recruited from beliatta. CSE was manipulated by political loyalists and SEC Chief was threatened and forced to resign. Day light robbery. Its fun to watch people going shopping and later complaining

The biggest issue we faced in terms of the economy before 2015 was UN sanctions. If MR regime continued, sactions were imminent. International diplomacy was also at its lowest.

Having drug lords in the cabinet. was it a part of International diplomacy? They did alot of White elephant projects. Was it their international relations? Nationalized private institutes and sucking money out of treasury, was it the biggest economic issue they had to encounter??
