Market braces for familiar governance; Globalisation still intact, says Viswas Raghavan of Citigroup

Image
[hfe_template id='11223'] [ad_1] Globalisation is too entrenched for the world to pull back from, said Viswas Raghavan, Head of Banking, Citigroup. The potential tariffs and the boost to local manufacturing could be the growth drivers for the US while geopolitics remains the biggest worry for the financial markets, he said in an interview with Shilpy Sinha. Edited excerpts. How shocked were you when the results came? There was no shock because the market was bracing. The trifecta (white house, house, senate) wasn't expected. The market had seen both versions of governance before. So, it's not like there is someone new. There’s a lot of commentary about what’s in store, especially globalization? I'm more of the camp that globalization is not dead. We are too global already as a community.. in terms of interests, in a very digital age. You cannot ignore how interconnected and entrenched our lives have become. I don't think you're going to unwind that an...

The liquidity game on Dalal Street: The rise of phoenixes?

Image
[hfe_template id='11223'] [ad_1] Liquidity has magical powers. When it is in deficit, it can sink an otherwise sensible business into insolvency. On the other hand, when it is in surplus, it can magically salvage an otherwise insolvent business from the cusp of demise. Many examples come to mind. But the ones that strike you with huge astonishment are the tales of two Anils. One is the long-forgotten younger scion of the Ambani family. And the other is the metal magnet of Vedanta (Anil Agarwal). It is fascinating to see how the high tide of liquidity has brought them back to the spotlight from the brink of collapse. Starting with Reliance Power, the story was one of the roller coaster rides for investors. Back in 2008, it had a stunning debut in the markets with a meteoric listing that saw its stock price surge to an all-time high market cap that nearly went close to the Rs 1.0tn mark, a rare feat in those days which belonged to the elite few. But soon, the cracks begin ...
