Big update for Dixon. Rerating on the cards?
Significant! Govt likely to clear the #Dixon–Vivo JV, with an inter-ministerial committee understood to have backed the proposal on Saturday.
The final approval process now appears largely procedural, with only formal regulatory clearances remaining before the JV gets the green light

First publish downgrade reports on India
Doesn’t work , start blaming DIIs, retail and SIP book for currency fall
Basically they are saying - stop sip , let markets fall 20-30% so that they can first make money on Shorts and then can Reenter.. and then u start your SIP..

Economics 101. For an economy to grow, you need a certain amount of inflation. In relative terms if one country has higher inflation than another, its currency will depreciate over time. Except, just like equities this isn’t a straight line move - there are periods when the fall is accelerated - usually when there is a balance of payments issue (oil at over $100 will do that).
This is not a "real story". This is just a story.
Indians earn, save, and spend in INR. This sort of misrepresentation, coming from a professor, seems purposefully creating fear, uncertainty, and doubt.
The USD itself has lost ~32% of its purchasing power in the last 15 years. This is because of inflation.
Controlled inflation (under 5-6%) is considered normal and even healthy for a growing economy. A fast growing economy like India tends to have higher inflation naturally.
In fact, central bankers and finance ministers get worried if inflation drops too low. Focusing only on the nominal USD rate without this context is purposefully misleading.
So while INR has lost its purchasing power, it is natural just like the USD has lost its purchasing power. Someone's savings in India, to be used in India, suddenly doesn't become 50% less due to USD/INR rate increase.
One day in the coming time, INR will suddenly start appreciating against the USD quickly. Then what will they say? They will change the attack to "inflation" then. These are the same people talking about de-dollarization and USD "crashing soon" as well.
So assuming they are right, if suddenly we wake up to 1 USD = 50 INR, did every Indian become twice as rich in the night? Because its GDP and GDP per capita is suddenly 2x now in USD terms? No.
The real story is, for those who can understand these things and see the pattern, there's an orchestrated attempt from a large network of anti-establishment types to fear monger and incite Indians to try cause political and economic instability in India.

It takes an army to get us ready everyday. These 23 seconds are representative of a number of things - the frenetic pace, the ongoing battle to stay ahead, the breathlessness of live television, and the efficiency of a team that resembles an F1 Pit Crew. Don’t miss the good cheer and the smiles despite the pressure :)
You see the final product. Here’s a look at the seconds preceding that. @niraj_shah @TamannaInamdar @Heeraal
