Asian markets gave up initial gains amid thin trading volumes. The trading momentum remained subdued, as many markets globally are closed for the extended Christmas holiday.

The Nikkei is trading 0.2% higher while the Hang Seng index is trading 1.6% lower.

Speaking of the stock market, in as many as 92 years, only 4% of all listed equities in the US accounted for all the wealth created there.

Now since we are referring to the American stock markets, we cannot blame the underperformance of 96% stocks on the lack of maturity of the markets.

Nor can we attribute any economic or geopolitical risk as the cause. This is because the performance has been gauged over nearly a century.

Does this apply to Indian stock markets too?Tanushree Banerjee co-head of research at Equitymaster, answers this question in below video.

Reliance, Disney Sign New Agreement

Walt Disney and Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL) inked a non-binding term sheet in London last week to advance with plans to merge their India-based media operation.

The two sides had discussions recently about a possible joint venture in which RIL would get a majority stake.

Consolidation between the two would lead to the creation of one of the country's largest media empires, putting it in contention with players such as Zee Entertainment and Sony and streaming services like Netflix and Amazon Prime.

The 51:49 stock-and-cash consolidation in favour of RIL is expected to wrap up by February.

The deal could prove advantageous for Disney, whose Hotstar streaming app has been running into losses.

Both firms are also likely to inject cash as capital investment, which is expected to be in the range of US$ 1-1.5 billion (bn).
