The Nifty was one of the few global indices that ended this week in the green. Pretty much all markets were buffetted by the Greece drama. Shanghai had one of the worst weeks ever – Chinese regulators have allowed pretty much anything to be posted as collateral, the only thing that remains to be tried is outlawing falling stock prices.

Thought for the weekend
People were more confident that they knew the answers — had the information in their heads — if they had access to [internet] search. It’s more like thinking you know how to fix a car if you have access to a mechanic.
Plus, searching the internet is almost effortless, and it’s almost always accessible. You never face your ignorance when it’s there. Because we’re so deeply plugged into it, we misattribute the connection to knowledge to actually having the knowledge ourselves.
Emotional investments can give people the illusion of insight.
