This is an entirely free service. No payments are to be made.In a week full of macroeconomic developments, anxiety over third quarter results and trade war concerns, we take a look at the key topics that swayed the markets this week.
Indian stock markets traded flat-to-positive this week. Market participants were cautious ahead of the quarterly results. And global concerns over US-China trade tensions capped gains.
We talk about the recently released macroeconomic data. India's retail inflation and wholesale inflation fell to multi-month lows in December amid signs of weakening economic recovery. With the fall in inflation numbers, top business groups urged the RBI to cut its benchmark interest rate.
So, will this request fall on deaf ears, or would the newly appointed Governor pay the request some heed?
Meanwhile, India's trade deficit also narrowed in December.
Then, we also talk about Jet Airways woes and what lies ahead of the airline company.
At the end of this podcast episode, we will talk about free online summit to be held this month. It will help you know how to amass life-changing wealth from India's rise to the pinnacle it last occupied nearly 2,000 years ago!
