Markets: Should You Buy India Right Now?

The market is very high as you know. It's not as though these things are a surprise, that's one reason I'm worried about markets in many parts of the world. 

The American stock markets are trading at an all-time high. Most of the markets in Europe are trading at all-time highs. I don't like buying when things are making all-time highs.

India: The Reforms Undertaken By Modi

Well not much has been done except GST which is huge, which is a very, very big thing.

I hope that they will privatize Air India. I'm not sure why that's such a big thing for Indians. It would be better for India, it would be better for Air India if they have to be efficient and competitive instead of being a protected industry and not offering a very good service to Indians and foreigners.

India: GST Will Make India More Efficient

GST is a miracle! I'm very surprised it went through and it's going to change India completely.

In the long run it will make India cheaper and more efficient for most businesses, it's great for India  and I'm very, very surprised.
