On the FMP episode that mutual fund industry is seeing
— Nagpal Manoj (@NagpalManoj) April 11, 2019
The view/feedback from everyone is that Investors should have taken care bcoz
1. Mutual Funds are subject to risk
2. FMPs have no guarantee
3. MFs are pass-through
Hence Caveat Emptor
Let's these arguments hold true

The black spot in this image is larger in diameter than our solar system. It weighs more than our galaxy. Its halo is matter literally being ripped apart and accelerated to near light speed as it disappears, forever, into a gravitational prison from which there is no escape. pic.twitter.com/dvCJQD85w1

There are two different kinds of black hole we come across in the universe. Many of you are familiar with the pathetic little stellar-mass black holes, collapsed stars with masses between roughly 1 and 100 times the mass of our Sun - the sort that LIGO sees merging in gravwaves

Scientists have obtained the first image of a black hole, using Event Horizon Telescope observations of the center of the galaxy M87. The image shows a bright ring formed as light bends in the intense gravity around a black hole that is 6.5 billion times more massive than the Sun pic.twitter.com/AymXilKhKe

What this IPL has clearly shown is that MS Dhoni is by far the best ODI captain in India. And the best captain should be leading India in international matches as well. This charade of Virat Kohli as the ODI captain needs to end.
