How can Twitter help me with Indian stock markets ?

Twitter is micro blogging. Thus it is the views of the people YOU like to follow. The people tweet what they believe or like, not what they are paid for. Thus it is different from talks on the TV shows which are often biased and don’t cover everyone who matters.
