Simplifying Insurance, Banking & Personal Finance for Indians 🇮🇳 No hype. Only clarity.





In 2000 dot com bubble. The market corrected by 83%. Someone invested 100 at peak. That money became 17. But, here is the interesting fact that almost no one is talking:- If you invested 100 before crash. Went through the entire bubble burst. Stayed put. You are now at 7.9X. This is roughly 8.3% CAGR in $ terms over the last 26 years. Massive gains? No. But, this is assuming you invested all your money at absolute peak. And, never downward averaged anything. A more realistic return estimate would be 12-13% CAGR in US$ terms. Point being: if you invest in things where value is migrating towards, you're likely to win. There is a reason why top firms like Google, Meta are staking all their cash, reputation and assets on the line for participating in the AI built out. If you step back and zoom long-term: this is one of the cleanest phases where these firms are deploying large capital with a lot of conviction. While the short-term noise of 5%, 10% fall will always be there. If you deploy capital patiently: there is good money to be made. I did a podcast with actual investors who are putting money on AI investments, do check out there views.... (these are real folks, putting real money on the line)
