General Q: Why talks of US banning Russia oil imports?

Simple Answer: US does not get impacted economically

Sadly, it is about politics over peace talks/ effort Fact check: US imports only 3% oil from Russia

US Oil imports from Russia in 2021, at $4.71 billion, is a 45% decline from a decade ago.

Some keep takeaways from @Iamsamirarora paaji

Buy right – sit tight?
Everybody brainwashes u when u start by reading all WB books
Absolute wrong to imagine that stock will go up 20-30 times in 20 years
U r buying stocks for 1-3 years and if its does well – u r holding it Learn to reject (same view expressed here: )

All you know is bad management and bad history – u don’t know about good management
You can only know bad things about cos or management
A large cos do well – focus on rejecting cos

Key learnings from Naren
Global central banks are strong, have vested interest that equity goes up – do not fight with them
Asset price inflation > consumer price inflation makes everyone happy but leads to deflation Key learnings from Naren
Cycles determines whether u make big money in equity markets
Early/ boring part of cycle in midcap & small-cap space in India
Rental yields > mortgage interest rates = good indicator to invest in real estate
