Amitabh Bachchan's investment portfolio: Big B buys while the world sells

Last week, Amitabh Bachchan bought 3 lakh shares of Fineotex Chemicals.

MUMBAI: He's never away from the glare. Whether he's coming out of a hospital holding his granddaughter, a midnight stroll to Siddhivinayak temple or even a simple tweet on Aishwariya's daughter - people just cannot seem to have enough of Amitabh Bachchan.

There's very little that one doesn't know about Big B - his films, his poetry, his TV show Kaun Banega Crorepati, his misadventure with ABC Corp, his life-threatening accident on the sets of Coolie, his baritone and bungalows.

But there's something about Big B (not the Big Bull of stock markets) that's not so well-known, or well documented - his equity investments.
