The finest backhanded compliment I receive, and the one I receive most often, is: “Good piece; I actually understood this one.” A title like the one above is, on that evidence, an act of commercial self-harm. It guarantees that many readers will not open the essay, and that some of the brave ones will not survive this paragraph. But stay with me. This one is genuinely parseable. It is about where my investment thesis could be, not merely early, exaggerated, or temporarily embarrassed, but dead wrong. It is also, mercifully, not one of my heavier expeditions into the epistemic and…

PM Narendra Modi called for judicious use of fuel, postponement of gold purchases and foreign travel, among other measures, to strengthen the economy. NEW DELHI: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Monday launched a scathing attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi after he urged citizens to postpone gold purchases, reduce fuel consumption and avoid foreign travel, calling the appeal evidence of “failure”.”Yesterday, Modi ji asked the public to make sacrifices—don’t buy gold, don’t go abroad, use less petrol, cut down on fertiliser and cooking oil, take the metro, work from home. These aren’t sermons—they’re proof of failure,” Rahul Gandhi said in…

Indonesia is entering a critical test of its fiscal resilience. Beneath the government’s optimistic narrative of a stable economic growth rate of around 5% lies a structural anomaly carrying significant systemic risks. The accumulation of central government debt, now edging toward the psychological threshold of 10 quadrillion rupiah (US$572 billion), has pushed the country into a phase where the budgetary discipline long touted by policymakers is beginning to show serious cracks. Historically, Indonesia has been praised for adhering to the statutory fiscal deficit ceiling of 3%. Yet by 2026, the legitimacy of that praise is beginning to erode as financing…

A Dutch expedition cruise ship, the MV Hondius, docked in Tenerife on Sunday after weeks adrift with three deaths and eight hantavirus cases on board. The strain involved is the Andes virus, the only hantavirus known to transmit between humans. The World Health Organization has called the cluster serious but assessed the global risk as low. A hantavirus scare is not a pandemic. That is precisely why it is useful. When a frightening pathogen surfaces, public conversation usually swings between panic and dismissal. Hantaviruses deserve neither. They can be deadly, but in most settings, they do not spread the way…

When President Donald Trump arrives in Beijing this week for talks with Chinese President Xi Jinping, the choreography will almost certainly be familiar: firm handshakes, oversized rhetoric, carefully calibrated symbolism and declarations about “historic” economic opportunities. But beneath the spectacle will lie a much more consequential reality for Asia. Trump’s return to office has not produced a coherent new Indo-Pacific doctrine so much as a louder, more transactional version of America’s existing strategic anxieties. Washington continues to frame China as its principal competitor, but increasingly through the language of tariffs, industrial rivalry and economic punishment rather than sustained alliance-building or…

NEW DELHI: The ministry of electronics and information technology on Monday refuted Congress’ claim that Instagram “blocked” Rahul Gandhi’s reel and photo with newly appointed Tamil Nadu chief minister Vijay, alleging that the ministry was actively restricting the voices of opposition leaders in the country.Sources told news agency ANI that the ministry had nothing to do with the action and that the platform’s internal system had mistakenly flagged the post for blocking.”It has been wrongly claimed by certain social media handles that certain posts of the LoP were restricted by MeitY.
