Speaking of stock markets, Rahul Shah, Research Analyst at Equitymaster, explains that many people confuse buying popular stocks like Nykaa with true investing, but often it's just speculation.

He applies Benjamin Graham's "Graham Test" to Nykaa, checking for thorough analysis, safety of principal, and adequate returns. Nykaa's extremely high P/E ratio and low margin of safety show it is priced for future growth rather than current value.

While it may still be profitable for some, Graham would classify it as speculation, not a sound investment.
