Parliament Vortex.....

The polar vortex has not yet hit india, but it's chilly here nevertheless. Although the temperature inside parliament may be anything but chilly as the government and opposition Duke it out over the budget. #Budget2019

Budget day data for the last 10 years suggests that bears have dominated D-Street in the past six out of the 10 years. In 2009, the Sensex fell nearly 6 percent, followed by 2013 when it fell 1.5 percent, and in 2012, 2016, 2014, and 2018 it slipped less than 1 percent. On the other hand, the Sensex rose only in 4 out of the last 10 years on the Budget day. So what will budget 2019 have in store?

Under pressure from a resurgent Congress which is going all out to lure voters with the promise of debt waiver for farmers and a minimum income for the poor if voted to power, Goyal may announce some form of a direct transfer of cash to farmers.

So are we, flexing our fingers over keyboard in anticipation
