- Alert: After the war, many people have started trading in crude and natural gas. Stay away from commodities trading if the setup is not clearly understood.

- Alert: As of March 2026, India’s market cap-to-GDP ratio stands around 120–122%, indicating modest overvaluation compared with the 10-year average. Stay away from high-PE, non-dividend-paying stocks. Focus on a few fundamentally strong companies with solid 9MFY26 results and optimistic outlook for Q4FY26 and Q1FY27. In uncertain times, capital protection matters more than returns.
