Lula victory speech:
"We had to overcome foreign interference through digital platforms, which we will have to regulate.
We cannot have monstrously huge corporations earning millions & billions, paying no taxes to this country & trying to steer this country's election results."

Lula just said two critical things after becoming President for the fourth time.
“Brazil is no one’s backyard.”
“We need to regulate digital platforms.”

Indian brands raised their combined smartphone share in India from 2% a year earlier to 7% in July-September, the highest since October-December 2018. Ai+ and Lava accounted for almost 95% of that share. Ai+, launched in July last year, posted a more than fourfold year-on-year shipment increase in the quarter. Chinese brands cut budget models under high memory costs, opening the entry-level segment.

Infra done right: Delhi-Meerut Namo Bharat RRTS doubled passengers in one year.
Shweta Sharma, who lives in Partapur in Meerut, said her son leaves home at 8.30 am, takes the Namo Bharat train to Sarai Kale Khan and then the Delhi Metro to Kalkaji Mandir, reaching JIMS Kalkaji in time for his 10 am lectures. He is usually back home by 6 pm.
“It is as good as staying in Delhi,” she said.
The implications for real estate are mind-boggling.

Just in: South Korea's foreign ministry has announced a partial withdrawal of embassy staff from Ukraine.
It cites the absence of "forward-looking measures" from Kyiv and persistent airstrike threats. It did not spell out its demands, but Seoul wants an apology over the POW row.

The rupee has stabilised at ~₹95 per USD over the past 6 months.
Is it likely to depreciate further and reach 100 in the next 24 months? Yes.
Should we be worried? No!
But psychological barrier...? 100 is just a number after 99 and before 101.
Let me explain. (1/n)

The same system which worked for lakhs of voters in most states, including TN and Kerala, is to be written off because the discrepancy wasn’t promptly fixed for 97 voters in Goa—where individual cases clearly haven’t been vetted by IE, since 4 of them have Portuguese passports.
