  • Price to book value ratio:- what is company’s market value after paying all its debts? In short, this is known as the book value of the company.

Price to book value ratio tells us that “how much any individual is agreeing to pay for any return?” For example, a stock which price to book value is Rs 4 that mean you are agreeing to pay Rs 4 for every Rs 1.

My Investments and Returns: April 2024 - March 2025

  My Investments and Returns: April 2024 - March 2025 The Ground Rules Alright, folks, I’ve borrowed some of Warren Buffett’s genius ground rules from his famous letters—like borrowing your rich uncle’s best suit! I’m serving his wisdom with a sprinkle of my own goofy charm. Why? Because if you’re going to copy, go for the guy who buys companies like I buy snacks! Get ready for simple, Buffett-style tips that’ll make you feel like a money wizard—or at least fool your friends into thinking you are. Joke’s on them when you start sounding smarter than a stock market squirrel! Let’s roll!

This may have little to do with realized results for tax purposes in a given year. Whether we do a good or poor job isn’t measured by whether we’re up or down for the year.

Stock Market Amid Indo-Pak Tension

  Stock Market Amid Indo-Pak Tension On April 22, 2025, a devastating terrorist attack struck the Pahalgam region of India, claiming 26 lives. The brutality of the assault, where attackers interrogated victims about their religion—demanding Hindu or Muslim identification, forcing men to disrobe for verification, or compelling them to recite the Kalma—shocked the nation. Failure to comply resulted in execution in front of families. This heinous act not only broke the nation's heart but also fueled widespread anger, as it was clearly designed to sow hatred between communities. Such attacks demand a resolute response. I believe India must take decisive and robust measures to send an unequivocal message to perpetrators: India is a strong, modern nation that will leave no stone unturned to protect its citizens. By demonstrating unwavering resolve, India can deter future acts of terror and reaffirm its commitment to national security. How to Invest in War-Like Situations War-like situati...
