"Great initiative by Equitymaster to interview Guru's like Marc Faber and provide subscribers an opportunity to understand how history, culture and economics play a vital role in investing. Very different from other podcasts/videos i have seen so far. Keep up the good work Guys."

- Anupkumar Surendran


The newly launched Investor Hour is a very good initiative by Equity Master. It gives a global perspective and it also gives us an opportunity to look into the perspectives of Global gurus.

It envigorates us to listen to such eminent people and how their thought processes in the field of investments.

- Mandyam Rangaraj


Nice initiative! Keep up the good work.

- Roy A


This is a very good series giving honest overall world views of great personalities, with their long life experiences. Such stabilizing views are very welcome and assuring especially in such volatile times.

- Equitymaster Subscriber


I really liked the part where Mr. Bhambwani talked of day trading. Disciplined to close the trade on the same day loss/gain. I remember while I was doing futures I used to lose a lot of sleep not knowing if any event the next day may crash the market. I lost Rs. 35 Lakhs in 4 days and had to sell my good shares when I decided that futures is not for small retailers like me and stopped FNO totally. This is when I became Equitymaster reserve member. Now I have sound sleep without worrying what will happen the next day. I am finding the Investor Hour very interesting and educative and look forward to the same. Please do keep up the good work.

It was an excellent interview/podcast with Vijay. I never thought trading was such a deep science and Vijay has really unveiled many of his ideas with immense clarity. Too good. Thanks. Looking forward to more such podcasts.

- Raghupati Karanth


Wow! This was a fantastic interview. No words to describe the clarity in which he explained and the in-depth knowledge that Mr. Vijay Bhambwani possesses. It was an interview which one won't get tired of listening. In plain words "Master Man for Investors".

- YVO Lobo


It was a great Podcast by Rahul...

Liked the most was about the discipline... it really takes guts and lot of courage to move against the crowd, and that's what makes a winner like you said, selling at a loss is indeed tough and needs inner conviction and long term vision, it was a great learning session.

Looking forward to more such podcasts...

- Raghupati Karanth

A very clearheaded and incisive analysis of the correlation between our present day economy and markets. I was impressed with Nilesh Shah's simple, methodical and easy to understand approach. I thoroughly enjoyed the Podcast and look forward to future episodes.

Compliments for yet another insightful podcast and thanks a lot for the same.

Nilesh Shah's unique style of explaining the concepts in a very simple manner made it easy for all of us to get a very good perspective on many aspects relating to economy and markets.

Almost all these successful people are emphasizing a lot on reading. The saying "leaders are readers", gets revalidated every time.

Kudos once again to both of you and please continue these good efforts.

If you can summaries the discussion in a point by point manner at the end, that will be value adding.
