Are markets really risky?

If you define risk as volatility, then the stock markets are indeed very risky. But if you define risk as the probability of suffering a loss over the long term, then the risk is entirely manageable.

What's in a name!

When a label means everything and tells you nothing

When incentives work against investors

To fix a financial problem, ask who profits from it, not who suffers

When the system itself is the risk

Individual investor warnings are fine. But who regulates the herd?

At financial summits, every speaker is selling something

The barber's advice is free, but the haircut costs you

Who really wins when India invests

The story of India's market is more about participation than prediction
