Sandip Sabharwal, asksandipsabharwal.com, says portfolio allocation varies from person to person and the age group which they are in, etc. But for people who do not stay in the US and their currency is a reserve currency, gold has always been a very good investment. Today, it is one of the biggest sources of wealth for Indians as per current calculations. It is almost 75% of the country's GDP. It is pure currency and can be easily encashed at any point of time. Gold should be 10-15% of the asset allocation. Bonds and debt depend on person to person. But everyone should have one year of expenditure and some additional amount in fixed income and bonds to take care of your need if you cannot pull out of risky assets. This massive rally which is underway in auto, completely undoes what you were saying a couple of weeks ago, the inventory buildup and the fact that there was a lot of discounting and all those clamours which were coming through. What do you make of the auto sector right now? Sandip Sabharwal: When we were discussing the industry at that time, the two-wheeler stocks were running up and the four-wheelers were correcting and what I had said was that in anticipation of festival demand, it is likely that the four-wheelers will also see some sort of revival going forward. Now, it is a question of delivery. These companies have to deliver on the festival season sales and that is the challenge.

Kamala Harris will become the most obnoxious US president in history. It doesn't seem like the Asian Pacific American Institute for Congressional Studies Legislative Summit is the right place for the woman who aspires to be the next head of state to use profanity. However, that is precisely what transpired in May when US Vice President Kamala Harris spoke to a group of young Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders. A few weeks before Joe Biden declared he would not run for reelection, Harris stated that you have to know that sometimes people will open the door for you and leave it open. Sometimes they won't, in which case you have to kick down that door, followed by a cuss word. Her audience at that point in time clapped and laughed, whereas a few decades ago they might have gasped or taken in the expletive silently. Harris later apologized for her language. However, it wasn't the first time the Democratic presidential candidate had used a four-letter word in public, and it won't be the last.
