Geopolitical conflict is all over the screens - from the small to the big ones What is likely to happen? What is likely to be Iran's strategy? And since 'सबको अपनी ही किसी बात पर रोना आया" what is likely to happen to stock markets and oil? My perspective based on data and history... Including what we did in our global portfolios recently and what to do now Want proper guidance for your Indian and global portfolios? Send a DM to @firstglobalsec

When Warren Buffett announced his retirement (Charlie Munger, never did); I wonder if not having Charlie by his side played a role...I suspect it was simply not as much fun without Charlie youtu.be/M0q0S-32E3g?si… Of course, the upheavals brought about by Trump which change the very framework of the US somewhat may have had a role as well and 4 years may be too long for him to wait! The above is Buffett's tribute to Munger last year. Sounds like the very best possible version of marriage - we did everything together - we never had any doubts about the other person - we loved spending every day together - we never ever got mad at each other - we did keep learning and we liked learning together - we had fun together Have you ever found a marriage this idyllic? Let me know Buffett himself had a pretty messed up marriage - he had a first marriage with a long standing relationship on the side for decades. Mostly airbrushed to keep his carefully crafted avuncular all American image intact.

Immensely happy and proud! Basking in reflected glory as IIMA batchmate and friend, former Ambassador (and current ITPO Chairperson) Jawed Ashraf is conferred the insignia of Commandeur de la Légion d’Honneur. He is only the eighth Indian and the first Indian Ambassador to receive this honour from France (other Indian recipients are JRD Tata, Pandit Ravi Shankar, Satyajit Ray, Amartya Sen, Ratan Tata, Manna Dey and SH Raza) Heartiest congratulations @JawedAshraf5 👏👏👏

What is it in the STRUCTURE of banking that makes me a nervous investor in banks...my column in Mint from June last year   The peculiarities that make banking different from other industries   When growing better than expected is not always a good thing   How a 20 something trader can single handedly bring down 200 year old Bank   Why do you have to keep dancing while the music plays   Why banking is the ultimate confidence game   Why you can never take an fully informed bet on a bank One more reminder today! @firstglobalsec @fghumsmallcase @livemint @WritesRavi @latha_venkatesh @_anujsinghal   #Banking #RiskManagement #BankingIndustry #investoreducation

Perfectly articulated @devinamehra ma’am. I’ve heard you many times say you stay away from banks--the inherent nature of the business doesn’t give you comfort. And having worked in a bank earlier, you’ve seen how things operate behind the scenes. This kind of wisdom and insight is rare among most fund managers. Massive respect 👏 Kudos to you 🙌

Brilliant piece @devinamehra 🎯 Banking's brutal truth in one line: Lenders share zero upside — but absorb full downside. 8-10x leverage means confidence IS the balance sheet. SVB proved it. India's shotgun mergers confirm it. Retail investors should read this before touching any bank stock.Above my pov.

With so much noise around, we sometimes forget the basics of investing But there is no better time to revisit how much of what you believe is really true Thank you so much, Anooshka for doing a nuanced summary of my book Here is the link to order: amzn.in/d/gtQxGsl 'Money Myths and Mantras'

Most people think investing is about finding the next big stock. Devina Mehra argues the bigger problem is something else. @devinamehra Investors believe the wrong ideas about money. Her book Money, Myths and Mantras breaks down some of the most common ones. 🧵

In my old books is a three volume compilation of landmark original papers in #Physics - gifted by an ex as a wooing strategy🤓 You are a certified nerd if someone thinks that this is the way to your heart! Gödel, Escher, Bach: an Eternal Golden Braid was a gift from another suitor 🙃 Yup. #Books 📚 are my love language...and my friendship language PS: No. Didn't actually read them end to end. But the strategy worked...at least for a time - maybe as virtue signaling 😊 And yeah, poetry 😍works too Remember my undergrad degree was in Maths, Statistics and English literature So now you know PPS: I think we all need a break from the relentless war news

A quick two minutes on why I often repeat that I am always a nervous investor in banks and lenders...it is in the very structure of the industry and what you CANNOT know as an outsider youtu.be/Liop2ci3zQk?si… One more reminder today! Remember that a 29 year old rogue trader brought down a 200 + year old Bank (Barings) - that cannot happen in any other business Chatting with @AyeshaFaridi1 and @hershsayta on @ETNOWlive some months ago @firstglobalsec @fghumsmallcase #Investing #banking

@devinamehra To me the biggest one from the book is , close to 80-90% of your returns come from asset allocation. Get that right and sleep well.

A good story can sell a stock. Strong numbers sustain it. Always check the data. Do the numbers support the narrative? Margins. Market share. Pricing power. That’s where the truth shows up. Always verify the story with the data. If you’re looking to build a portfolio grounded in fundamentals and data-driven investing, DM us or write to us at smallcase@firstglobalsec.com
