stock broking app to place an order for Bank Nifty options, he was taken aback. “On 20 December, the broker’s app had a glitch when I placed some orders for a Bank Nifty option. The app didn’t show anything, whether my orders had been executed or rejected or were pending. My order book and position page didn’t get updated, nor did the funds page,” recounts Patil. Seeing his funds in place, Patil kept punching in his order, but nothing got updated. The order book and position tab got updated only a few minutes later, showing an open position, with a huge loss of Rs.37,000. Patil tried to exit that position, but the error kept recurring. Patil is not alone in his suffering. Today, more individuals are trading than ever before. A record number of investors have opened demat accounts in the past few years.

In recent months, users of several broking platforms have been crying foul after facing recurring outages and disruption in services. Uphill battle for users

funds’. The market regulator asked for a policy to be put in place to protect investors. The letter laid down two requirements for this policy. First, ‘appropriate and proactive measures are to be taken by AMCs and fund managers to protect investors, including, but not limited to, moderating inflows, portfolio rebalancing, etc.’ Second, it asked for ‘steps to ensure that investors are protected from the first-mover advantage of redeeming investors’. The specific threats that Sebi is pointing at and the measures to contain these are quite clear. The regulator is worried that if large inflows in small-cap funds continue, the quality and value of the portfolio holdings will inevitably drop. There is only so much worthwhile investable stock available in the smaller companies. The second concern is about what will happen if a small- and mid-cap crash does occur. The investors who exit as soon as a downturn begins can disproportionately benefit at the expense of those who remain, as their redemptions are likely to force fund managers to sell better quality holdings at unfavourable prices. This will compromise the fund’s quality and value for remaining investors. This is not a hypothetical situation; we have repeatedly seen it happen in debt funds.

UFOs or aliens, attributing most sightings to «ordinary objects» that are the result of misidentification. This conclusion was revealed in a 63-page report titled «Historical Record of US Government Involvement with Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP)» by the Pentagon. The report stated that the Department of Defense's All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) found no evidence of any US government investigation, research, or review panel verifying that a UAP represented extraterrestrial technology. The report is part of the US government's broader public examination of UFOs, or «unidentified anomalous phenomena,» which has included Congress hearings and open discussions with US space agency NASA officials. Despite these findings, US officials acknowledged that the public's perception of alien visits may not be dispelled. The report noted that the proliferation of television programs, books, movies, and internet and social media content focused on UAP-related topics has likely influenced the public conversation and reinforced beliefs within some sections of the population.
