Practical approach to sustainable wealth
Wow! its mid March and for the very first time in a very long time, I missed out on updating AVI family net worth status on time. In the hind sight the delay in reporting has been worth it! As of this writing, I am happy to announce that AVI family has achieved their first […]
Let me begin by showing the following chart, Buffet indicator, otherwise the ratio of US total stock market valuation to US GDP, has officially crossed the peak value reached during the dot-com bubble, not withstanding the correction in the stock price of growth oriented stocks in the past week. The rapid rise in the 10 […]
Note: I began writing this article last weekend, but for some reasons could not finish it. A few updates since, Gamestop stonk seems to have fizzled; markets seem to have re bounced back very nicely from the 3 % decline of prior week and it looks very likely that Biden 1.9 Trillion dollar bill will […]

There’s always something worth listening to when Mohnish talks. In the present talk, Mohnish talks about a key to success, and that being the importance of aligning the inner self with […]
I am glad its been a short-trading week! As noted in my last post, I went short on Tesla (ticker:TSLA) and the timing as it always seems to be the case with this bull of a stock was all wrong, again! More on that later, lets begin with the topic of the day, net-worth update […]
