Staying away from the internet is vital to understanding something that requires deep learning, such as investing.

Before the internet, people used to line up outside the BSE to collect annual reports of co's and having information was an advantage.

Today it is the opposite.

Disconnecting from the info for a few hours everyday has become a critical factor for having an edge in investing.

Their 20000000000 (2k Crs 😃) was multiplied by a zero (at least temporarily) that was handed over to them by the US FDA, who declined an approval for their F3 facility. Alembicpharma

What if smart money is discounting deteriorating fundamentals ahead of you?

The price falls first and the bad news usually comes much later.

Besides it isn't always clear whether the deterioration in fundamentals is temporary or permanent. Markets could be discounting the future.

@markminervini has covered this in his wonderful book.

The price falls first and bad news often follows 2-3 quarters later or more and this is while fundamentals are still looking good.
