      World Market Weighting Your Equity Allocation
      This is something that I have been working on. With my analysis , I concluded that a US and Diversified world ex US portfolio will have a breakdown of 45% (US) and 55%(world ex US). I am yet to see how this breakdown changes with inclusion of bond index funds.

      Why the U.S. Credit Crunch Will Not Affect India
      I was in India until recently and have made a common observation about the real estate prices in metropolitan cities and the other upcoming ones. The real estate prices seemed to have a strong connection with the spending power of the residents. For e.g. the cities such as Pune , Kolkata , Guragaon , Noida have seen a huge influx of IT/Tech workers in the last couple of years. Now, with the single , well paid , young workers looking to rent than own a house (in most case share to reduce the rent expenses) , the real estate developers have found a huge market to cater to by building not only residential but also commercial structures. To call it a real estate boom - I don't know for sure as most of these developments have been spurred by the increasing economic activity, increasing employment and spending power of the consumer. So the fundamentals still look strong. What it has led to in some cities is this 'follow the leader' mentality of real estate developers to develop large spaces of land without assessing the market - which of course led to some markets crashing and leaving behind those ghost buildings (as discussed earlier). Now, Bangalore is a different beast altogether and I would not move there even at a gun point. I guess Bangalore went bust because of "excess" (sub prime lending, excess building - see a common thread here). So while the real estate builders were going crazy in Bangalore, some of the major domestic and international firms were looking at other smaller, cheaper cities for setting up their shops.

      So the take away - excess kills the access!

      That's all folks!
