China produces ~80% of its urea from coal rather than (as most other nations do) natural gas. The method is insulating Beijing from rising nitrogen fertiliser prices. I wrote ⤵️ this @Opinion column about the Chinese coal-to-chemicals industry last June. bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…

"China can now power many of its cars and trains with electricity, greatly reducing its reliance on oil. China has also honed the use of coal — and not oil — to produce its own petrochemicals." nytimes.com/2026/04/06/bus…


I desperately hope alongwith with the rest of India that the Pak-led peace initiative fails. We can tolerate anything: 300 dollar oil, Sensex at 30k, inflation at 19%, INR at 130. But we can't tolerate the ignominy of seeing the most historic peace Accord EVER called " The Islamabad Accord", and that too, when Dhurandhar 2 is running to packed houses.

No one in his right mind will accept these conditions (assuming these are what was truly proposed)



The magic is in that last 20%.






BREAKING: All young men between the ages of 17 and 45 are now no longer allowed to leave Germany for more than three months without permission.

Until recently, Hamideh Soleimani Afshar and her daughter were green card holders living lavishly in the United States. Afshar is the niece of deceased Iranian Major General Qasem Soleimani. She is also an outspoken supporter of the Iranian regime who celebrated attacks on Americans and referred to our country as the "Great Satan." This week, I terminated both Afshar and her daughter's legal status and they are now in ICE custody, pending removal from the United States. The Trump Administration will not allow our country to become a home for foreign nationals who support anti-American terrorist regimes.




Let’s play a game. Let’s apply the question that the MSM habitually poses to Trump to the IRGC. What’s your exit strategy? How do you come out of this war in better shape than when you started? There is no way. How are you going to rebuild all that you lost? You have one card, missiles and drones. It’s a major card, to be sure. But it is a diminishing asset. The longer the war goes on, the less value it has.

Do not let oldies of the stock market misguide and misinform you. The golden period of stock market returns from 1980s and Harshad Mehta bull run are not something you will ever experience Sensex itself multiplied by 33x from 1980 to 1994, you will not see this in your lifetime. Returns go down over time as countries move from developing to developed nations. For the same Unluckiest Investor example, I took the last 20 years Sensex data. And the CAGR is around 7.7%. For the next 20 years it maybe 6% or lower if you end up being a fool to buy at the top everytime. Don't even ask for the last 10 and last 5 years.

When I was new to the stock market, I used to consider business tv channel experts like “real” experts. I used to keep them in high regard thinking they have deep knowledge about the market and their analysis is very sacred. After 8 years of experience, I finally conclude that any person who watches such business tv channels will always stay in loss.
