JUST IN: 🇺🇸🇮🇷 US-Iran deal not expected to be signed today.

The power of compounding belongs not only to professionals. It belongs to every disciplined citizen willing to think long term. Not everyone can fly a plane. But everyone has the right to fly. Similarly, not everyone can analyse stocks. But everyone deserves the opportunity to benefit from the power of compounding. Consider this: Suppose a person invests Rs. 10,000 per month for 20 years. If the post-tax return from an FD is 5%, the corpus grows to about Rs 41 lakh. If the post-tax return from equity is 10%, the corpus grows to about Rs. 76 lakh. Same person. Same monthly investment. Same discipline. Same 20 years. Yet the difference is Rs 35 lakh. The difference between 5% and 10% is not 5%. It is the difference between Rs 41 lakh and Rs. 76 lakh. Yes, higher returns come with volatility. But for a disciplined long-term investor, volatility is not merely a risk - it is also the price paid for the possibility of superior long term compounding. Volatility is the price of admission. Compounding is the reward. A nation prospers when its citizens don't just save money. They own a share in the businesses that create wealth. Equity investing may not be for everyone. But the power of compounding and business ownership should belong to everyone.

Today’s talks with my friend, President Macron were exceptionally productive. Considering the longstanding friendship between our nations, we have decided to elevate our ties to a Special Global Strategic Partnership. Our talks covered ways to deepen cooperation in key sectors like defence, technology, space, security, counter terrorism, innovation and more. @EmmanuelMacron

TRUMP ON TRUTH SOCIAL: This morning’s attack on Beirut should not have happened, particularly on a special day when we are so close to a Peace Deal with Iran. Israel has the right to defend itself against threats, but the attack it was responding to was very small and meaningless, nobody was hurt, injured, or killed, and should not disrupt this important process. We are very close to a Deal that will bring peace to the region, including to Lebanon, and all sides should stand down. There should be no more attacks by Israel anywhere in Lebanon, but there should also be no more attacks by any other party, including Hezbollah, against Israel. This could be the beginning of a long and beautiful peace — Let’s not blow it! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP

Un accueil mémorable de la part de la communauté indienne de Nice. Bien qu’ils se trouvent à plusieurs kilomètres de leur pays, le lien de notre diaspora avec l’Inde demeure plus fort que jamais.

Je viens d’atterrir à Nice. Outre Nice, cette visite en France comprend des programmes à Évian et à Paris. Elle sera marquée par des rencontres bilatérales et multilatérales, visant à renforcer les liens d’amitié de l’Inde avec ses partenaires clés en matière de développement. Je me réjouis de rencontrer demain le Président Macron et d’être présent à « Bharat Innovates ». @EmmanuelMacron @BharatInnov2026
