Hello guys, I hope you are having a great day and enjoying my blogs. Today, we are going to talk about favoritism and whether you’ve ever had any experiences like the one I’m about to share with you. So, let’s dig into it. For those of you who don’t know, I’m a college student, and today I came across something funny yet serious. We had our winter vacation, and it’s been about two weeks since the new semester started. Today, we had a seminar where we were told that two students were going to be awarded participation certificates for submitting articles. Well, that’s great — but after the seminar, I asked some students from my department if they had also submitted articles through some platform. I was astonished to learn that our department head had only messaged those two students individually during the vacation and didn’t even inform other students about this opportunity. At first, I thought maybe the seats were limited, but I later found out that more than 15 students from each depa...

There are some shows that we loved to watch on a regular basis and waited every week for the next episode to appear. That show for me was WWE, well some of you might not consider it a show but for me it was more than that. I remember the first time I saw my first WWE match on a Sunday afternoon, it was a sunny day on March 29, 2010. My parents fed up with a 7 year me handed off the remote and just scolded off to watch some cartoon as they already knew there wasn't a possibility for me to go study. So, watching the same old repeat episodes of Ben 10 made me curious about other channels and while switching channels I reached to "Ten Sports" back in the day unlike today's 1,2,3. Now, I was fully focused on two men fighting each other "Undertaker & Shawn Michaels", I didn't understand a thing the commentators were speaking, but that wasn't my focus my full attention was on the fight. And then Undertaker jumps off the top of the ring on top off the ca...

 Hello guys, and welcome to the Part 3 of our journey in unpacking the Stock Market Crash. Today we are looking into the Impact of the crash, insights from experts and the conclusion. So, lets get into it. The Ripple Effect: How It Impacts You When the market crashes, the effects aren’t limited to big investors. Here’s how it trickles down: Investor Losses : A sudden fall in stock prices means reduced portfolio value, impacting both individual and institutional investors. Business Slowdown : Companies lose market value and struggle to raise capital for expansion. Employment Woes : A slowing economy often translates to job cuts and hiring freezes. Currency Fluctuations : A weak stock market can lead to a depreciation of the rupee, increasing import costs. As Warren Buffett famously put it: “Be fearful when others are greedy, and greedy when others are fearful.” This mindset is crucial when navigating market downturns. Insights from Experts: Nikhil Kamath on Market Timing: “Try...

Hello guys, and welcome to the second edition of Analyzing the Stock Market Crash journey. Today we are going to dig deep into the What Triggers a Stock Market Crash?  So, let's go: A stock market crash isn’t a random event — it’s often the result of a combination of factors coming together at the wrong time. Let’s explore some major reasons: Global Economic Slowdowns : India’s market is closely tied to global economic trends. A slowdown in major economies like the US or China often results in reduced investor confidence. Political Instability and Global Conflicts : Political developments, like Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s economic reforms and global events like the Ukraine war, add to uncertainty. The war has disrupted global supply chains and led to rising oil and commodity prices, putting pressure on emerging markets like India. Trade Wars and Tariffs: Former US President Donald Trump’s tariffs on Chinese goods had a ripple effect on global trade, raising costs and reducing...

Hello, readers in today's blog we are going to have a look into the Indian Stock Market Crash that occurred on Feb 11,2025. So, let's get ready to rumble: Part 1: Understanding Market Crashes and Key Metrics The Indian stock market has long been a reflection of the country’s economic sentiment — a dynamic space where optimism and fear collide. But when the market takes a nosedive, it sends shockwaves across the economy, impacting investors, businesses, and everyday citizens alike. In this blog series, we’ll dive into the causes, impact, and lessons from one of these turbulent times. What Exactly Is a Stock Market Crash?  A stock market crash is typically defined as a rapid and often unanticipated drop in stock prices, usually over a period of 1 to 4 months. During a crash, the market loses a significant percentage of its value — sometimes over 20% — creating panic among investors. Historical crashes, like the Harshad Mehta scam of 1992 or the COVID-19 market collapse in 2020, s...

 Hello readers, Today along with the start of my blog is my birthday which was one of the major reasons I've started this blog. Today I'm 21 and I feel like I have become quite old. As everyone around me looks small and had a weirdest interaction with a woman just few weeks back who started a conversation with the word "Bhaiya".  Can you imagine a married woman calling me bhaiya there and then I felt like "Oh man, I am getting old, or do I look like one?". This also made my feet move toward the gym faster and instead of lifting weights I went on the Cardio floor and did 30-45 min of cardio. And then ate almost a bowl worth of chocolate mousse cake as you do. This whole experience got me thinking — why not share my daily stories with people who might have gone through the same “Oh no, I’m getting old” moments? Maybe we can laugh, reflect, and figure out this journey together. So, here’s to many more stories, experiences, and a lot of cake. Welcome to my blog!...
