500% Tariffs: A Cheat-code to Growth?
In April 2025, Donald Trump announced sweeping tariffs across multiple nations, imposing duties exceeding 100% on some countries, particularly China. The narrative was familiar: foreign nations were being unfair, American industries were suffering, and tariffs would restore domestic manufacturing while keeping jobs inside the United States. Tariffs have long been politically attractive because they appear simple: tax foreign goods, protect local firms, and save domestic jobs.

Evolution of money
Money feels like a modern invention, but the idea behind it is far older than coins, banks, or governments. Long before nations existed, humans needed a way to trade with each other, first within small villages, then across growing communities, and eventually across continents. As societies became more complex, simple barter stopped working. A fisherman could not always find a baker who wanted fish, and a farmer could not divide a cow into equal pieces for trade.

NBFCs: superior to banks?
There is a common perception that NBFCs are structurally disadvantaged when compared to banks and therefore cannot perform on par with them. From raising capital at rates close to where banks lend, resulting in a higher cost of capital, to serving narrower customer segments where banks cater to a much broader base across products and geographies, banks often appear to have a clear edge.

Look Beyond Growth
In this week’s blog we are going to cover an important aspect of fundamental analysis. When researching a stock, many of us look for revenue and profit growth as some of the most important indicators right? Growth may look impressive on paper, but here's the catch: not all growth creates value. Two companies can show identical 20% profit growth, yet one enriches shareholders while the other silently dilutes them. The difference lies in the underlying quality: the efficiency o

Do Other Metals Have Place In Treasuries?
In Part 1 of this series, we traced the forces that keep gold at the centre of global finance , from its declining reserves to its rising demand in a world shaped by geopolitics. If anything became clear, it was that gold's place is unique in this world. Gold is exceptional, but what stops other metals from stepping into its role? Silver is abundant in history, platinum is rarer than gold, copper powers the modern world, yet none of the other metals, despite their utility, h

Will gold ever lose its shine?
GOLD has been making headlines, from its sudden price surge to central banks around the world ramping up their holdings. Once known for its quiet stability, gold is entering a new era. But what exactly is driving this shift? And is gold still the undisputed king of reserves? Why gold has always mattered For over 4,500 years, gold has shaped economies, empires, and monetary systems.
