#VenturaBlog | At the recently concluded shareholder’s annual conference of Berkshire Hathaway, Warren Buffett mocked the entire investment thesis of cryptocurrencies; no holds barred, and refused to subscribe to the theory of greater fools.

#VenturaBlog | The recently concluded IPO of Venus Pipes and Tubes got oversubscribed 16.3 times. Although the issue size of Rs 165 crore was tiny as compared to that of LIC IPO, the investor behaviour is slightly jarring.

On one hand, some well-established listed companies in the iron and steel pipes space have come under tremendous pressure during the recent market sell-off. On the other, the lure of quick listing gains still seems to be attracting investors to relatively new players.

We thought it would be a good idea to review the performance of Jindal SAW—once a market favourite, now a dud.

#VenturaBlog | Global and Indian markets have been yo-yoing nowadays and finding it difficult to break themselves free from the chilling clutches of the bears. But until recently, stock selection seemed like a popularity contest. And technology was the most popular theme, by far.

However, nothing is static in the markets. Several IT industry experts and stock market mavens now believe that the rising employee costs may hit the profit margins of tech companies.

How big the problem of rising employee costs is for IT companies?
This week we thought of doing a quick review of the technology sector—a blue-eyed boy of gen-Z investors.

VenturaBlog | What’s common between India suddenly abandoning wheat exports and Indonesia changing its palm oil export policy twice in a matter of three weeks? Nation-first approach?

Well, addressing global concerns and concurrently pacifying domestic markets by maintaining price stability has become a herculean task for governments across the globe.

The top two producers—Indonesia and Malaysia—control 85% of the global palm oil production. Such a high dependency makes global supply chains vulnerable to periodic shocks and in the absence of affordable substitutes, replacing palm oil in global supply chains has become a challenge.

What are the key takeaways for investors? Let’s find out!

#VenturaBlog | Not sure whether you should invest in gold at this juncture?

Well, if you mistakenly use quicklime (choona) instead of white butter (makkhan) as a bread-spread, you may suffer painful mouth burns.

Similarly, those who misunderstood cryptocurrencies for gold (about a year ago) might be feeling the same pain now.

Clearly, the writing on the wall is: gold still dominates as a safe haven asset! So far cryptos have failed to shield investors against inflation and policy actions of major central banks.
