Markets holding strong despite soft earnings and liquidity drain: Prateek Agrawal
Yes, over time, EMS players might gain access to the US market, but today they're more focused on import substitution domestically. So, while the long-term outlook is promising, in the near term, not much will change for the stock market. Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads Tired of too many ads?

What we're offering is gradually coming into the public domain. Similarly, other countries are also making deals — Japan has signed something, Indonesia has too — and that gives us a sense of what's possible," says Prateek Agrawal, MD & CEO, MOAMC.A few thoughts. Many of the larger companies that have reported results so far may have been slightly on the softer side, yet the markets are holding up, and these companies' stocks are also holding up quite well. That, to me, indicates market strength . On the other hand, companies that have done well and beaten expectations have seen strong responses from the market, which again reflects the same underlying this is happening despite a very tough IPO and QIP market, which is draining a lot of liquidity from the system. So overall, I would say the market construct looks very on the trade deal, we've already taken some steps — we've opened a few cards with our trade agreements with the UK, and now we're working on one with the EU. What we're offering is gradually coming into the public domain. Similarly, other countries are also making deals — Japan has signed something, Indonesia has too — and that gives us a sense of what's strengthens India's position in negotiations is the sheer size of the Indian market. Today, it may be slightly smaller than Japan's, but in the future, it will be the second-largest market in the world. So, when we open up our market, we're offering something very significant. As we see how different countries are positioning themselves, the realm of possibilities starts narrowing, and if it narrows the way I expect, it could be very positive for ' Make in India '.Competing countries might offer concessions closer to 30%, while we may only offer something in the range of 10–15%. So, fingers crossed. Let's hope it happens. We've seen instances where we came very close to a deal, and it didn't materialize. So, all outcomes are still on the table, but today, I am optimistic. A good deal could make our manufacturing more competitive in the world's largest current market — and for the US, it opens a gate into what will soon be the second-largest market in the a short-term view and a long-term one. If you look at the cost and availability of labour, over time, Indian manufacturing should have a distinct advantage. The US is one country that could lift us up too, but of course, our people need to be capable and ready to seize the opportunity — it works both the immediate term, think about it: the US wants to do more high-end work — things that align with their 'Make America Great Again' vision — but most of that won't be labour-intensive. They don't have enough labour. So, for labour-intensive production, they'll want to source from other countries. India, being the most populous nation in the world, should benefit need to tweak laws and make things happen, but the opportunity is massive. The not-so-great part is that very little of this is currently represented in the Indian market. For example, how much textile can you buy? It's a tiny space. Leather goods? Same story. The entire Apple ecosystem, for instance, is outside the listed over time, EMS players might gain access to the US market, but today they're more focused on import substitution domestically. So, while the long-term outlook is promising, in the near term, not much will change for the stock last time a similar narrative emerged — around January–February — we believe the real issue was currency and interest rate volatility. US yields were tight, and the rupee depreciated nearly 5% in about 10 days. That spooked foreign investors, who are extremely sensitive to dollar returns, and they pulled money now, as things have stabilized, they're back. We've had four months of inflows. This month might be negative, but before that, it was positive. So, in the short term, we suggest watching currency markets and bond yields. The trade deal's impact may be limited in the immediate term — but over time, yes, it could be significant.

How to survive a heart attack when alone? Top US cardiac surgeon shares 4 life-saving tips
With millions affected by heart attacks globally, immediate action is crucial, especially when alone. Dr. Jeremy London advises calling emergency services promptly, clearly stating symptoms and location. Preparing for EMS arrival by ensuring accessibility, like turning on lights and unlocking doors, is vital. While waiting, lying down with elevated feet or sitting calmly conserves energy. Heart attacks affect millions of people worldwide. An estimated 17.9 million people died from CVDs in 2019, of which 85% were due to heart attack and stroke, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). Heart attacks often strike without a warning, and every second counts. But how do you survive a heart attack when you are alone? Dr. Jeremy London, a board-certified US cardiovascular surgeon with over 25 years of clinical experience, has shared some life-saving tips to survive a heart attack, especially when you are alone. Call emergency medical services If you notice any of the signs or symptoms of a heart attack , it is important to act immediately. The moment you suspect a heart attack, call emergency medical services. Remember, every second counts. Inform the dispatcher of your symptoms and location clearly. If possible, stay on the phone. Delaying this could reduce your chances of survival or increase complications. Prepare for EMS arrival Dr. London stresses that it is important to ensure emergency medical services (EMS) can reach you quickly. For this, you should ensure to make your home is accessible. 'If it is nighttime, you are going to turn on the lights on your porch, so that EMS can identify your house. You're gonna open or at least unlock the front door so EMS can access your house, because if you are incapacitated, they have no way to get in,' the cardiac surgeon said .

Lie down or sit down While you are waiting for help, it is important to find a comfortable position. Remember, you have to save energy and reduce strain on your heart. Dr. London recommends lying down on a couch or bed with your feet elevated. This posture can ease breathing and improve blood flow. If you feel sitting is better, stay seated, but ensure not to move much. Both these positions can avoid falling if you pass out, which could add injuries like a head trauma to an already dire situation. Call your family or loved ones After calling the emergency medical services, ensure to contact a family member or friend to inform them of your situation. Also, let them know that EMS is on the way and you're likely headed to the hospital. This will help your family or loved ones to follow up with medical staff, provide your medical history, or meet you at the hospital.

Plainclothes officer investigating homicide fatally shot man in Regina: police watchdog
The Regina police officer who shot and killed a 29-year-old man in Regina's North Central neighbourhood on Friday was in plain clothes, according to an interim report by the Saskatchewan Serious Incident Response Team (SIRT). SIRT is an independent civilian-led unit responsible for investigating incidents where people are hurt or killed during interactions with police in Saskatchewan. The agency released new details of the fatal shooting on Tuesday. The Regina Police Service (RPS) had previously released no details about the victim. According to SIRT, the man who police killed was wanted in connection with a homicide investigation. Plainclothes officers were working on that investigation in the area on the morning of the fatal shooting. SIRT's report said two officers spotted the man on a bike, before confronting him in an alley between Athol and Garnet streets, near Buffalo Meadows Park, at 10:12 a.m. CST. Both officers exited unmarked police vehicles and had a verbal confrontation with the man, issuing "verbal commands," the report said. "One plainclothes member of RPS discharged at single round from a service pistol," SIRT said. The bullet hit the man, the report said. The officers called EMS, which arrived at 10:17 a.m. and pronounced the 29-year-old dead at 10:19 a.m. RPS reported the incident to SIRT at approximately 10:30 a.m. Once SIRT investigators arrived on the scene, a "replica firearm" was recovered and "has been seized as an exhibit" in the on-going investigation. SIRT will release a full report within 90 days of the investigation ending. The agency is asking anyone who may have witnessed the fatal shooting or have video of it to contact them. The original homicide investigation will remain with RPS.
