FnO activity is at multi-year lows.

But the STT collection didn't fall as govt deliberately raised STT in budget to compensate for the decline in trading activity.

The casino owner always win. Play carefully as lower volume will contribute to higher slippage.

Don’t listen to influencers.
Don’t over-plan.
Get a ₹20-₹25L mediclaim that covers your family.
Gradually build two years of expenses as your emergency fund.
Then live.
Life is too short to keep calculating CAGR.
Nothing here is permanent.

Kharagpur to Howrah by train is not a journey, it's an experience.

110 km. Local train takes 4.5 hrs. Superfast trains, except Vande Bharat, takes 4 hrs. And it is going on every single day for the last 4 yrs. What the hell is this @serailwaykol? @RailMinIndia @AshwiniVaishnaw

An ordinary person needs 40-50gm protein daily for sound health. Soya chunks, milk, chana sattu, paneer & curd are enough if you want to avoid animal protein.

In India where food quality is a joke, consuming protein powder is an expensive way to damage your body.

Travel through smaller, developing Asian economies like Vietnam, Sri Lanka, Cambodia, Laos, Philippines etc and one difference becomes immediately apparent when compared with India: cleanliness.

No country appears as visibly filthy as India, Bangladesh and Pakistan.

The best way to reduce STT impact on your PnL is to reduce number of trades. Focus more on long term Options, have patience, don't trade everyday. Those who cannot evolve, can't survive.

[Prithwish Banerjee @pbanerjee_]

Multiple relationships
Drug
Gambling
Personal Loan

If you can avoid the above, no matter how difficult your life is now, you can come back.

[Prithwish Banerjee @pbanerjee_]

And they have done it. You need to trust the process.

@SarangSood If you invested $8 billion in that CE, you would be now sitting with more cash than Warren Buffett.
Market is easy. We are not putting enough effort.

[Prithwish Banerjee @pbanerjee_]

They are doing so much drama and experiment in FnO space in the last 2 years. No one has any clue. Please sit together. Finalize what you want and stop acting like a father of a teenage girl. If you want to attract global fund, the uncertainty must be removed.

#JustIn | High time #India adopts minimum qualifying criteria for F&O participation, minimum qualifying criteria so that lower strata doesn't lose money in F&O. India cannot allow over speculation by lower strata of economy, says #AshishKumarChauhan, #NSE MD & CEO At #FIAConference in #Mumbai

@elonmusk This is not how capitalism works.

[Prithwish Banerjee @pbanerjee_]

Too much cricket every now and then. Cricket is losing its mojo. Even #INDvsPAK didn't bring much excitement.

For money we are overdoing it. The real moments of greatness need space to breathe, otherwise they just get lost in the noise.

[Prithwish Banerjee @pbanerjee_]

Not playing India was a good decision by Pakistan. They could only lose 2 points. Now they have lost 2 points, destroyed net run rate and got humiliated again.

#AI will replace human and most of the workforce will be jobless - After 20 years you will laugh at youself for believing this nonsense.

[Prithwish Banerjee @pbanerjee_]

Patience plays a huge role in investing. If you look back at your investing journey, you will realise you would have made money in 90% of ur investments with a little more patience. You were not wrong in ur thinking. You were simply impatient and churned ur portfolio repeatedly.

[Prithwish Banerjee @pbanerjee_]

In 2014 when Elon publicly warned that AI will disrupt the way we function and it will be far more dangerous than nuclear weapon, people reacted in the same way. But it's happening now.

[Muthukrishnan Dhandapani @dmuthuk]

Mars is being given up. Elon has accepted the reality.

Again a city on moon is crappish. He always keeps an impossible goal, not to work towards it but to maintain a larger than life image among his cultish followers.

He has achieved hell a lot in life. But lot of things he talk are either crap or fantasies.

Weekend Trump fear I guess. The Put options spiked in the last 1 hour.
