Podcast: Turbulent times - RBI thrives, Fed fumbles

. Markets are slaves of earnings and liquidity. Liquidity has taken prominence after the coronavirus outbreak. At first, central banks across the world increased liquidity by cutting rates and helping their populace to live through the pandemic. Then the after effects of increasing liquidity hit - increased inflation. Now, the same banks are sucking out liquidity by increasing interest rates to counter inflation. The looming after effect of increasing rates is the "r" word that is too pious to speak loudly. In this podcast, Deepak & Shray discuss the two central banks that impact us the most - RBI and FED (Federal Reserve System, USA). What makes this podcast interesting is that we are looking at everything from the lens of who does better - FED or RBI? .

Eight Fixed Income instruments that beat the best FD rates in India

For decades, Fixed Deposits have been the most preferred instrument for everyone. But, historically this is the worst time to invest in FDs. Their interest rates are at a multi-year low. The nationalized banks like SBI, Punjab National Bank, HDFC Bank, Axis Bank are offering FD rates in the range of 4.4% to 5.8% per annum, depending on your tenure, and a 0.5% higher for senior citizens. On the other side, the CPI inflation for Feb 2022 was at 6.07%. This means, your real rate of return is actually negative. You are losing your purchasing power by investing in Fixed Deposits. In such a scenario, what are the alternatives available? Can we get a higher return than FDs, without taking the additional risk? The answer is, Yes. In this post, we will tell you the low-risk alternatives, without compromising on the risk.
