I was quite shocked to know that India's per capita consumption of Coffee is just 100 grams annually. Global average is 2kgs. Philippines is 3.6kgs, growing 14% annually. India has a long, long way to grow, in the Very, Exciting Business of Coffee ☕..

Cinema foot falls are still at just 50% of pre covid numbers. I think viewers know that all movies very soon come on OTT. Hence maybe?

US markets have seen decades on rally despite much higher capital gains taxes. Indian market, long term trajectory remains intact and strong as ever. 12.5% is a non event, in the long run. Focus on India's growth trajectory.

There was a study, that if you likely to ask out a girl from a group of girls.... definitely approach the 2nd or the 3rd prettiest girl because while they are pretty, they often get overlooked due to the prettiest girl and hence they are likely to be less demanding and more

Simple habits and behaviour will make us Rich. Spend less, save more is one key habit. But more important than 'Saving' is 'Earning'. Buy stocks when others are predicting lower levels. Screw everyone. Buy strong brands which are cheap.

Healthy correction in the Diagnostic space. They are still WAY above comfort zone, valuation wise. Important sector to have in your watchlist. Wait patiently for much more correction though.

So, our home TV has spoilt since 3 days now. On day 1 itself amazing things started happening, the kids forgot about watching TV. Myself too, realised that there is no real need to watch OTT at night, just a waste of time. A lot of real work can be done or just sleep earlier!

A really well balanced Budget yesterday. 1- Surcharge reduced from 37% to 25% and host of other Tax benefits. 2- No increase in Capital Gains Tax rate is a huge relief. Overall, it was a how a Budget should be. Friendly and growth oriented. Well done @nsitharaman ma'am.

India's Airport sector needs to be kept under watchlist. Its going through a very good growth period. The stocks listed here currently are expensive though. Ones to watch though on significant dips. Disc: No holdings personally or via Negen PMS in this space currently.

Petcare as a segment is a very big opportunity (it's Fur-tastic!). Two things are happening here: 1- Market is not penetrated. 2- Market is growing at 15-20% annually. Job is to find a profitable player but at very attractive valuation.

Got pitched a startup deal, 6mln revenue run rate, loss making, seeking pre money valuation of 55mln. Talking about breakeven in 2024, GMV of 35mln which will scale 35x by 2025 😅😅. *Some people are still in their bubble. Hopefully, cheaper valuations will emerge soon.

Leaders mostly go to war because they could be viewed as weak and may lose next election. Hope better sense prevails with Iran and Israel. Ofcourse, fund manager also tweets such things because he is probably more worried about his portfolio. It's all pretty much f'cked up,

Gold is just a store of value. It does not produce anything. It's only an inflation hedge. Investors should focus on assets which produce or create things. That's where 'Wealth' gets made from.

An investing experiment. Try and value a business first, and only then look at it's stock price/peer group valuation range. It will give you a sense of your own risk parameters.✨

'RoIC' is just one of the many tools to analyse businesses. But a simple fact is that a portfolio of +25% RoIC businesses will very easily outperform a portfolio of less than 20% RoIC businesses over the long run.
