Vaccine trials have just been finished. Soon we’ll have a vaccine for COVID. The efforts of being home will finally pay off.

Lets have a look at our so called ‘normal’. • A normal where world generates around 3.5 millions tons of plastic waste and other solid waste everyday. • A normal where about 0.0986 billion tons of Carbon Dioxide is emitted every day around the world. • A normal where 2 million tons of sewage and industrial waste water is dumped into water every day around the globe. • A normal where around 22,000 tons of plastic is dumped into oceans everyday.

Hey guys, I hope the first blog was successful in creating a bit spark regarding the Share Market. We there, had dealt with the what actually share market is and the basic concepts related to share market. So we now have a comprehensible idea of share market. So lets dig down further. Share market is home for two mindsets investing and trading . Rather than diving directly into these types, we’ll initially try to understand the importance of investing.  Investing the hard earned money into assets which provides enough returns helps to sustain through the retired life.

"Never mistake knowledge for wisdom. One helps you make living, the other helps you make a life."                                         -Eleanor Roosevelt  Schools teaches us in understanding the world around us and prepare us with the tools required for a job market. It imparts us with the knowledge of social skills, behavior, work ethic and other moral values. But is this enough? In a true sense knowledge is never enough. But the pattern of our education at schools is found to be inadequate.  It really teaches us to make money but fails in teaching how to handle it.

                                                  (Via: The Print) India is been into an economy-crippling lockdown, but that hasn’t stopped our leadership from dreaming big. With China facing a global backlash, on account of COVID-19, India is hoping to cash in on the anti-China sentiment to replace it as the world’s global factory.

Supporting to the PM’s stand, transport minister Nitin Gadkari also called the outbreak a ‘blessing in disguise' for Indian industry - one that could help bring large-scale foreign investments in the country. Preparations for this are already in place. India is already offering a pool of land to companies interested in moving manufacturing out of China. Uttar Pradesh has formed an economic task force to woo companies eyeing a shift. India has also significantly stepped up its pitch to attract investments, having alre

This photograph of a man on a phone, with a face in grief was highly circulated on the social media and news media a few days earlier. The story behind his tears was that his son was unwell and was on the verge of dying, and he had wanted to go back home. He worked as a labourer in the Najafgarh and due to absence of any public transport, he had starting walking home, which was almost 1200 away in Begusurai district of Bihar.
