Sambit Bal

outlines the potential problems for the new selection committee. I also agree that Aakash Chopra does deserve a chance! May be he or Gambhir can bat at 3.

Why don't

fact finding committees investigate terrorist activities. These organizations have time only to investigate when alleged muslims terrorists are killed in terrorist encounters. Isn't something fishy here?

What is the need of the hour

More regulation? No! Smart regulation as detailed here
For people who think regulation works, do you know the biggest firms that went bust first were the most regulated firms (Fannie and Freddi Mac).

It is sad

In the last 2 days these are the 3rd blasts! Don't even know what to say!

The bailout is off

It seems the congress has rejected even the updated bail out proposal. If what I read here is anything to go by, this might not be good for the markets.

Weird day

Another one of those weird days where all you want to do is do nothing. May be something that does not go according to plan leads to this or its just that I am not getting time to unwind for whatever reason. I have been emotionally tense all the way for the last 2 weeks (well not that it has been better before that!).

Anyway, hopefully someday soon it will get better.

With the NSG waiver

India and France manage to sign a nuclear agreement. It should benefit us!
