economy of INDIA having a problem

Investments in equity markets generally fetch you good returns only if you consider staying invested over mid ot long term - that is 3 to 5 years plus. as far as the rise and fall of stock prices are concerned, market falls and corrections are inevitable in any economy. Your term that the Indian economy is weak is incorrect, the economy of the country is not comletely reflected by the fall of stock markets, whgich have happened on a far greater level and intesity, over longer periods of times in countries such as the US and japan and elsewhere in the world. Indian companies are doing quite well, their year on year performances are improving, market sentiments and more importantly profit booking by FII's are driving the markets down, but this is short term. If companies perform consistently as they have been doing so far and price of oil does not suddenly flare upwards, I don't see any reason why the market should fail to reach BSE Sensex levles of even 25000 over then next three to ten years.
