Meesho's numbers are too good to be true. Especially as its network is more dispersed than the Amazon/FK who operate in dense cities. I don't quite understand how a network with less velocity of money and goods is somehow better than those with more. Post IPO, I foresee

This is a superb illustration of what I speak about often Real estate, in general, has not given great returns - quite the opposite. Here is a financially savvy person who bought real estate in the metros of Bengaluru and Mumbai in 2010 and 2014 - sold both at a LOSS relative

What's the best place to slice and dice mutual fund data? Like if I wanted to know x% of all mutual fund equity schemes is invested in only xyz number of companies, where do I get it? Prime database is wrecked.
