According to scientists, when you repeat something, your brain starts believing it. And lot of things changes.

1. A better version of you (wealthier, calmer, more disciplined) exists, and the gap is not talent, luck, or genetics but brain wiring that can be changed through neuroplasticity.

2. For most of the 20th century, science wrongly believed the adult brain was fixed and finished after childhood, with no ability to form new connections.

3. Early thinkers like William James (1890), Jerzy Konorski (1948), and Donald Hebb (“neurons that fire together, wire together”) proposed plasticity long before imaging technology could prove it.

4. Neuroplasticity is the brain’s lifelong ability to physically reorganize itself, forming new connections, strengthening or weakening existing ones, and even generating new neurons in certain areas.

5. Three core mechanisms drive this: synaptic plasticity (strengthening/weakening connections through use), structural plasticity (growing or pruning dendrites), and neurogenesis (birth of new neurons, especially in the hippocampus).

6. Evidence includes London taxi drivers developing larger hippocampi from memorizing streets, musicians showing expanded sensory maps for their fingers, and stroke patients regaining function via constraint-induced therapy years later.

7. The anterior midcingulate cortex (linked to willpower) physically grows when you repeatedly do things you don’t want to do; discomfort is the training stimulus that builds grit and discipline.

8. Acetylcholine (released especially after brief intense exercise) opens a window for efficient learning and rewiring; sleep then consolidates the structural changes.

9. Struggle during practice drives more brain change than easy repetition; the same mechanism that builds positive traits also strengthens unwanted patterns like anxiety or procrastination if left unchecked.

10. Practical use: prioritize frequent short practice over rare intensity, deliberately seek resistance, move before learning, protect sleep, interrupt bad loops, and accept that timelines match the age of the habit—your brain is always being shaped by what you repeatedly do, whether intentionally or not.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

BOND TRADING PLATFORM WILL BE NEXT GROWTH DRIVER FOR NSDL :

🟢📖 NSDL Bond Platform

☀️ NSDL is building a digital bond-selling platform, mandated by SEBI, to make corporate bond trading much easier for retail investors.

☀️ Biggest problem today = physical DI slips. Selling bonds can require paperwork/courier and take 3–7 days, creating settlement risk and discouraging investors.

☀️ NSDL will digitise the entire process, securities can be verified and blocked digitally when a sell order is placed, eliminating physical DI slips.

☀️ Settlement could become instant/T+1 instead of several days, with APIs allowing brokers to access demat details and automate debit mandates.

☀️ Potentially a big positive for India’s corporate-bond market:
easier selling → more retail participation → higher liquidity → better price discovery and a more equity-like trading experience.

☀️ Investment angle: The biggest beneficiaries could be bond platforms/OBPPs, brokers, depositories and other financial-market infrastructure players, if the platform materially increases retail bond volumes.

THIRUMALAI CHEMICALS & UPL 🔴🚨

• Thirumalai Chemicals (TCL) is in a high-stakes binary position: its US project to produce Maleic Anhydride (and downstream Malic/Fumaric acids) from cheap shale-derived n-butane could become either a major turnaround success or a classic cautionary case of project failure.

• The original plan (around 2019–20) targeted a ~$110 million modular plant built partly in India for cost savings, with expected ~40% EBITDA margins and a sub-3-year payback by using n-butane that was previously being flared.

• Multiple setbacks (COVID, rising US labor/material costs, Chinese equipment bans, and scope changes) drove project costs sharply higher, to $180M, then $235–255M, and most recently ~$340 million, stretching the payback period to 8–10 years.

• TCL’s balance sheet is under severe pressure: debt stood at ₹2,150 crore (March 2026), trailing operating profit is very low (~₹20 crore TTM), cash from operations is negative, and the board recently approved a large ₹750 crore fund raise while promoter holding has fallen to ~37%.

• The financial stress has spilled over to group company Ultramarine & Pigments Ltd (UPL) through cross-holdings (UPL owns ~18.23% of TCL; TCL owns ~14.38% of UPL) and direct support (₹45 crore preferential investment + ₹65 crore inter-corporate loan), diverting UPL’s focus and cash flows away from its otherwise strong core business.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

📖 ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE vs INDIAN IT

AI is changing India’s $315 billion IT industry. Companies like TCS, Infosys, Wipro and HCLTech are moving away from charging clients mainly based on employee hours and towards performance/outcome-based pricing.

Clients want more work for less money. AI is making developers much more productive, so customers are demanding 25–30% lower costs, faster delivery and higher productivity.

Smaller IT companies are gaining advantage. Persistent Systems and Coforge are growing much faster than the large IT companies because they can quickly deploy senior talent, run AI pilots and offer flexible pricing.

Traditional IT jobs are under pressure. AI is reducing the need for routine coding and entry-level engineers. Some global companies are also bringing work in-house instead of outsourcing it to Indian IT firms.

Biggest takeaway for investors: The old model of “more employees = more revenue” is weakening. IT companies that can use AI to deliver more with fewer people may benefit, while companies unable to protect pricing and margins could struggle.

[Lloyd Blankfein @lloydblankfein]

Risk management 101—every exposure should have a limit, even when you’re sure nothing could go wrong. After all, the Titanic sank and AAA mortgage bonds went to zero. I worry about the market’s (and the economy’s) unlimited appetite for exposure to the positive AI revenue story.

• Ray Dalio warns that a US debt crisis could hit in roughly three years (give or take two) if the government fails to cut the budget deficit from about 6% of GDP to 3% through spending reductions, higher revenues, and lower interest costs.

• He recommends investors underweight or reduce bond holdings and instead diversify into assets and countries with stronger finances to protect against the risks of rising debt, higher yields, or potential monetization.

• Dalio specifically advises allocating 10–15% of a portfolio to gold and a small amount to Bitcoin, arguing these non-government-produced assets could both lower risk and improve returns as fiscal pressures mount. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

☀️🟢 VEDANTA

Two Advanced Alloys: Vedanta Aluminium introduced a Copper-Doped Alloy for high-temperature durability and a Vedanta Foundry Alloy (VFA), co-developed with IIT Delhi, to balance lightweighting with high strength.

Domestic Import Substitution: The materials provide Indian automakers with locally sourced, high-performance alternatives, reducing the country's reliance on foreign alloy imports.

ICE and EV Readiness: Both products offer high strength-to-weight benefits designed to optimize structural components for both conventional internal combustion engines and electric vehicles.
