Friday, April 11, 2008. Traffic is something that is less researched, less discussed but something that affects everybody’s lives. It has a direct effect on productivities. You will appreciate more of this when we are done with this post. As with other things in the world, traffic perfectly follows a free market concept. More of which I will explain by exploring the duality of traffic and stocks (Some day I will write a research paper on this one). In investments, bigger the investment size, the more you...

Saturday, December 29, 2007. Disclaimer: Personal views. This post has high perishability. This is where our Mr. X (for choice of a better name) can speak out. Now can he? Comment on the following. Loosely structured with total disregard to students. Out of date case studies. Repetitive slides. According to the whims and fancies of the professor and his family. What does X have to do with the administrative desk? In fact he wanted to be as far away as possible from it. SIR SAYS HE WANTS TO SEE YOU TODAY!

Silly musings: October 2007

Friday, October 26, 2007. Strange things bring together people. Out of college, old school mates seem to have headed in different directions brought together by a small holiday made possible by the weirdest of reasons. A bandh against Ram Setu outcry and Gandhi Jayanti holiday along with the weekend gave the perfect opportunity for a short outing. 1 Durai puking at every 100 KM. 2 Rajesh on his omlette gobbling spree. 3 Arun and his GPS smsing. 4 Me and my new love (Fuji Finepix S6500fd).

Sunday, August 24, 2008. We(e/a)kend- week after week. Some obscure (shuffled) track blaring in the room gleefully, more so as I cannot identify it, lethargy in thoughts, narcissistic urge to check the blog ticker (now at 1299, though I made half the hits) and the guilt of not preparing anything since morning (CFA Level 1) brings out the boy in me. What the heck? Half an hour won’t harm me much. But isn’t that what life is all about? Add to it, my 300 GB. Of priceless movie collection lost (disk failure).

Thursday, January 24, 2008. Pretty late to write on the recent blood bath, but alas, I was too distraught to do anything. (Though of late this is the norm for me). Halal Street (mindfully misspelled) was witness to nothing less than carnage. To put things in more perspective, as is with every stock market event, let me point out where the current correction stands in historical sense. The biggest Sensex intra day falls have been,. Should I say more? The subprime crisis has snowballed into a major crisis ...

Silly musings: September 2008
http://srinispage.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 28, 2008. The biggest of human weakness is a craving for success. Genetically programmed to only yearn for such outcomes, exceptions are viewed with disdain. Even the few who risk to differ, are treated as outcasts and toe the conventional line soon enough. But the rough ride now takes everything for a toss. And even my idealistic economy, is no longer market driven. It looks more socialistic than even yester years Russia. Sample this. And the regulators do not want to cap the executive...

Thursday, November 27, 2008. At the cost of making my page look like another dissertation column or a who-is-responsible-for-the-mess forum, here comes a post on the bailout saga. We live in unprecedented times might sound too much of a cliché, but let me explain that with some numbers to get us off on the right footing. Stock markets around the globe have wiped out $ 23 trillion wealth, excluding the derivatives (which are a zero sum game). What number pops into your mind, when you hear bailout? This gi...

Saturday, December 29, 2007. As soon as X entered the room, the cold hit him, literally too. Prof. Y was on the phone talking with someone and curtly pointed to the chair in front of his huge table. X obediently took the chair. Not wanting to worsen the situation, he lowered his head humiliatingly and kept staring at his own fingers. Time seemed frozen. The banter on the phone extended to eternity. Are they up to your standard? Write them down on this sheet.’. Will he ever change? Maybe the dressing down...
