Aam Admi is here ... finally

Aam Admi, the good people of Mango county, finally have a party. Its got to be seen if it will indeed work for their betterment. 

I have been critical of Arvind Kejirwal in past (here) and also hopeful that he will be able to give some direction (here and here), but at the end of the day, I am still very unsure how this will pan out.

What is very crucial here is not to put the entire weight of Anti-Corruption success and expectations of Kejriwal's party, for India and Indians cannot take the risk of one party leading and executing on this crucial front. 

Totally agree with this article at Firstpost. Though there are differences in the way corruption-solutions are viewed, the biggest risk is in their views on rest of the issues. And this is going to be their biggest chink in armor  From Firstpost

"Kejriwal and Bhushan look around them, see mass poverty as a result of failed socialist policies over 65 years – and conclude that what India  needs is yet more of the same socialist policies.

They see the plunder by Big Business, with the connivance of Big Government, and they conclude, erroneously, that profit-making in its entirety is a crime."

It doesn't take much to understand businesses are going to hate this party. They will see as a throwback to Nehruvian socialism. They have taken a stance which is Centrist-Left and unfortunately, once you head down that road of spoon-feeding people, there is no going back.

Anyway Aam Admi party has long way to go. For now, lets wish it all the very best.

  1. How many educated people are in India? Whatever the number be. I urge all indians who are fed up of being taken for granted or are too lazy to give a fitting reply to the uneducated so called leaders in the parliament, please stand up now and at least give his party a chance. Its better than electing the scoundrels again. Do your bit this time, we have social media, please encourage others to give kejriwals party a chance so that India may finally see a good governance. Thanks.

Cognitive rules of business presentations

In his recent book, Clear and to the Point, Kosslyn explained that the four rules of PowerPoint are: The Goldilocks Rule, The Rudolph Rule, The Rule of Four, and the Birds of a Feather Rule. Here's how they work. The Goldilocks Rule refers to presenting the "just right" amount of data. Never include more information than your audience needs in a visual image. As an example, Kosslyn showed two graphs of real estate prices over time. One included ten different numbers, one for each year. The other included two numbers: a peak price, and the current price. For the purposes of a presentation about today's prices relative to peak price, those numbers were the only ones necessary. The Rudolph Rule refers to simple ways you can make information stand out and guide your audience to important details -- the way Rudolph the reindeer's red nose stood out from the other reindeers' and led them. If you're presenting a piece of relevant data in a list, why not mak...

Definition of Cult Stocks

From a blog: A classification describing stocks that have a sizable investor following, despite the fact that the underlying company has somewhat insignificant fundamentals. Typically, investors are initially attracted to the company's potential and accumulate positions in speculation that its potential will be fulfilled, providing the investors with a substantial payout. While most of these cult stocks promise they will be the next big story after they make a new discovery or get the newest contract from the government, most do not provide investors with anything other than the story. Furthermore, these stocks typically generate very little, if any, revenue at all. For example, many micro-cap biotech stocks are cult stocks. While they promise that they are going to be working on a miracle compound or drug, most of them do not have any source of income as they slowly burn away their initial capital in research and development. However, some cult stocks do occasionally make good on...
