Now let it rise back. coffee_rules 1

LordPrabhzy Posted January 29 Posted January 29 whats up with the Indian stock market-- all my investments in the Indian portfolio have tanked in the last 6 months but the S&P 500 worldwide is up 8/9% on average. Is it worth persistent with further investments in the hope it will pick up in the 5-10 year period for now?

However once Modi ji visits Trump in Feb, things will calm down as I am hopeful that Trump will say India is aligned to his US policy.

jigjig Posted February 3 Posted February 3 5 hours ago, Lord said: please elaborate as I might be going that way Ended up on the wrong side while trying to time the market. Ever since moved to CD / FD. Plus it's a risky world order. Less exposure to market is safer in my opinion. Lord 1

No, books like this are famous but not aimed at novices, you will get bored in the first chapter itself. Try to learn the basics before you can read books like Intelligent Investor, One Up on Wall Street. Zerodha Varsity is a good place to start https://zerodha.com/varsity/video-modules/ If you have be successful at investing, you need to devote time. Lord 1

We are in the middle of a Tariff war, amazing that Trump imposed 25% tariffs on Canada and Mexico but only 10% on China. This is going to be a long and painful period for the economy, tariffs are going to affect everything from GDP to Jobs But what is quite odd is why did Trump announce tariffs from Tuesday, why not from Monday itself ? Two theories I can think of, one is, he is hoping a judge will step in and block it and he can claim he did what he said and imposed tariffs but it's a judge who blocked it and this gets postponed, second theory he might have had a fund go short on Friday, create volatility and buy back on Monday, he makes a lot of money. This is going to be an interesting day. Edited February 3 by Teengunalagaan

It has nothing to do with the constitution I think they can, didn't a judge few days ago block funding freeze, also he invoked IEEPA which I read can be challenged in court. Anyways US, Mexico have paused the tariff for a month. I think he is using this as a tool to get countries to agree to his terms or atleast appear as such to his followers. I can understand if he is going against 1 or 2 countries, but to put tariffs against multiple countries which is where he seems to heading could be disastrous for US economy, it will be US consumers who will suffer, and I don't think he is that stupid.

Infact if you have the appetite make few risky bets.
