Mark Matthews, MD, Julius Baer, says: “China is not a good market to invest for the long term and if you put $100 into India 30 years ago, it would be about $1,800 today, which is remarkable considering what the rupee has done over that period of time. $100 in China would be about $150 today. So, it has been a destroyer of capital. However, there are opportunities that come along in every market, including China, and I think this is one, firstly, because their economy is bottoming out and it is not only cheap, it is abnormally cheap. I think China will be about 20% to 30% higher between now and 12 months from now. But beyond that, I would not hold it.” After how long have you come to India and what is the staggering change that you have felt? Mark Matthews: It has been around two years since I was last in India and it is great to be back.

Abhishek Basumallick, Founder & Chief Equity Advisor, Intelsense Capital, points to two sectors which have not been in the public limelight, chemicals and insurance. “While I am pretty bullish on insurance, chemicals sector is getting to the stage where we are probably seeing bottoming out in the businesses and things could turn around in the next 12 months,” says Basumallick. He also points out that IT and banking may also see a turnaround but that will take longer. Let’s discuss the market momentum right now and it is clearly favouring the small and midcaps. What do you make of the way forward because on one hand, there is always the challenge that it is probably getting towards the frothy zone as the valuations are expensive in smallcap and midcap, but the market mood is such that they clearly want to buy more of that? Abhishek Basumallick: The point that you are making is very true as there is uncertainty in the minds of investors. But personally, I think that small and midcaps could be headed for a pre-election rally and it is going to be very interesting to see how the largecaps behave, but the next couple of months should be very interesting for the mid and smallcaps.

Lloyds Bank in London. The bleakness in the poem, no doubt, stems much from the state of the western world in those inter-war years. But I suspect, with no evidence in hand, that he was especially inspired to write that opening line after attending too many dinner parties and luncheons in London's banking and financial circles that spring. I say this because I can confirm after a week packed with dinners and lunches — one pretty much liquid — that it is indeed the cruellest month on the calendar. But one upshot of giving networking a shot has been that I have gained knowledge about the kind of people a fashionable host invites to such HNI — High Networking Individuals — gatherings. Some of the same guests I saw across the dozen gatherings over the last six days clearly ranked high in PQ — Party Quotient. Anyone below 5 on the PQI shouldn't really be there. Locked & Loaded Being wealthy, especially wealthier than the other gathered wealthies, always gives a premium entry. Subtle (sic) expositions on the short holiday in Mallorca — 'We watched the sea food swimming right next to us' — adds to one's net worth. (PQI 6)

We have two dogs now: Sunny and Jinny. If I ever raise my voice at them, my mother threatens to leave me out of her will.

Right now, both are in the only two office chairs at my desk. I'm sitting cross-legged on the floor typing this.
