Pankaj points to India's strong economic growth forecasts, low inflation, fiscal management and relative insulation from global geopolitical risks. After two years of relatively flat markets, he believes many of the concerns around Indian market valuations have eased and that the economy could be ready to “sprint” again. He also shares why he is cautious about the US market and the growing dependence on AI-linked companies. According to Pankaj, a handful of companies now account for a significant portion of US market valuations, while the financial economics surrounding AI—including high costs, energy intensity and low willingness to pay—could create risks if the current structure starts correcting. The conversation then moves to how investors should evaluate a subscription-based research product versus a mutual fund. Pankaj explains his fixed-fee model and why the effective cost of research falls as an investor deploys more capital, while also giving investors the flexibility to first understand and evaluate the strategy before deciding their exposure. His biggest advice to investors? Understand the strategy, start small, and take ownership of your investment journey rather than blindly following recommendations. This is just a short clip from the full conversation—and the complete episode goes much deeper into momentum investing, quant strategies, portfolio construction, asset allocation, financial independence, gold hedging, US and AI stocks, subscription-based research and evaluating investment products.
