HP Touchpad in India for sale ?


HP Touchpad is not directly available in India, however, you could order it through sites like these

Ebay.in

20North (Not sure if they have stock, they keep flip flopping)

In all of the above cases, you won't be getting the tablet for 99$, they are usually double the price or more. I would recommend waiting for the prices to come down and not buy from all of these who are trying to make some quick money.

SKS Microfinance expands into other businesses


SKS Microfinance is reportedly scaling up its non-core businesses of financing Samgam stores, which are retail grocery stores owned by poor women, and increasing its gold lending operations in efforts to diversify its revenue stream. In the Samgam scheme, SKS Microfinance stores lend to Samgam stores and connects them with wholesale suppliers such as Hydera bad-based Metro Cash and Carry India Private Limited. SKS Microfinance receives some commission from the suppliers. Mr M R Rao, managing director and chief executive officer of SKS Microfinance, said, “We are scaling up our pilot on the ‘Samgam’ stores scheme and expanding it to Bangalore. Subsequently, this may be extended to all other States later.” SKS is also considering increasing the number of its branches that offer gold loans. Mr Rao added, “The number of [gold loan] branches is being increased from the present five to 20 as there is huge demand-supply gap in rural micro credit.”

Appetite picking up!



Appetite, with an opinion of attaining, is called hope; the same, without such opinion, despair. – Thomas Hobbes.

The long hunger for gains has resulted in risk appetite picking up in equities during the past few sessions. After being on a slippery slope for quite a while, global stock markets are turning around. The recent fall was pretty ferocious and a lot of ground still needs to be covered. Whether the current recovery is sustainable cannot be ascertained. Wait for some more clarity and stability before committing larger amounts.

Crude jumps up


Prices gain on hopes of fast economic turnaround

These in turn helped crude prices rise again on hopes of higher demand of crude in coming months

On the macro front, the government will unveil data on first quarter GDP growth today, 30 August 2011, which may provide cues on the central bank's likely policy stance at its mid-quarter policy review on 16 September 2011.

An optimistic assessment of the US economy from Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke on Friday, 26 August 2011, boosted stocks across the globe and Indian shares were no exception on Monday, 29 August 2011. The US is the world's biggest economy. The end of a standoff between the government and anti-corruption activist Anna Hazare during the weekend over anti-corruption bill, also aided the rally on the domestic bourses as the barometer index BSE Sensex regained the psychological 16,000 mark. The BSE Sensex jumped 567.50 points or 3.58% to settle at 16,416.33, its highest closing level since 23 August 2011.
