As homo sapiens we're hard wired to feel the need to gossip. This goes back hundreds of thousands of years throughout evolution. We still see it today and through the speed of communication technology, that gossip gets amplified. While some would...
Stocks in India are going up, on both an absolute and relative basis. Let's not forget that. So it's our job to isolate the ones with the most favorable risk vs reward scenarios. The idea is to risk the least amount in the case that we're wrong, but...
