What I am presenting below is a joke. Their counts went way low so the monitoring said something is odd a drop of 50% is quite abnormal and failed them over. Same story on the other side. Now they are trying to change the thresholds to say

I will age myself and maybe out myself but while infosys may not have been a dream job during my college days (pre infosys IPO), it soon was. The company probably wasn't any different in skills but there weren't too many people in

The big Kahuna is in December with lot more people going to polls then. which means election campaigning will be in full swing in November maybe late October too. The currency ends September 30, so the 2000 will not be useful for them.

Fed stopped printing money a couple of years back but they are still unable to swoop it back after what is it 18 months of working on it? Sometimes when you overprovision it takes a lot of effort to reverse it.

Ever played the game of passing the parcel? Any similarities? ... given that you can deposit only 10 notes in one go, why would I want to be the last one holding the bag?

I think you are looking at much higher rates. The question is not what it cost to them, but what they will make from that much time. They may pay the worker 20 dollars an hour, but that worker may be earning them 100 or 200 or even 1000 an

You can twist the supply demand imbalance only so much. Go farther than required for longer than required, and some cracks will eventually show up. Like they did for Silicon Valley bank. So it is hard to say when those cracks appear since t

Looking at last 5 years is not correct (responding to sibling comment for this para). It is very short term and does not cover the time periods when India does not grow. Back of the envelope calculation shows a 10 X growth over past 20 year

If you see a bank offering 4.75 percent on a certificate vs another offering 2.75, which one would you choose? If you always choose the highest, should you not have a stake if the bank was found to take a lot of risk to offer this higher ra

Such arbitrary decisions are part of our day to day life. This is not new. You can vote at 18. Why not 19, why not 18.1? You can drink at 21, why not 18, why not 20.5? When buying tickets, there are tickets for children and senior. When buy

Why? Books need not be unique books. There could be variations of the same book. For example, many books / scriptures were still being reconciled as recently as 100 years back and there are so many versions of ramayana available from o
