Books Give You Unlimited ROI

By
Books vs other information sources!! Consuming content from various sources is the new normal in today's world. The internet is flooded with interesting videos, podcasts, social media posts, blogs, articles, and so on, which not only give us valuable information but also keep us engaged for long hours. But can it replace books?  Books, be they paper books or e-books, are man's best friends in the sense that not only do they provide us with loads of information, but the process of reading also contributes to our physical and mental well-being in innumerable ways, which perhaps watching videos cannot meet.  Why Books??

Share Buy Back - What Is The Purpose?

By
The concept of Share Buyback!! In corporate finance,  share buyback is an important concept, which makes it an approach that we, as investors, should investigate critically.   First, let us understand what stock buyback is. In case of buyback, the company will take back some of its shares from the market at a much higher price compared to its current market price. Therefore, if you return your existing shares to the company, it is similar to selling them off in the market but at a considerably higher profit, with zero risk. Opportunity..
