Zomato - Long term stock or a Fad?
I have saved up close to a lac from my Internships, will be starting FT soon. I was thinking of YOLOing my entire savings by buying Zomato shares. I really believe the company will grow multifolds in the future, also I won’t have qualms if they don’t do well and I end up losing my money. I feel it’s better to take a bet on this as the money isn’t really significant and is better used if Invested somewhere. I might just end up wasting it buying AJ1s, Airpods and all that expensive stuff. What do you guys think about this? What’s your view on Zomato’s future? PS- No Index funds, MF advices pls. I’ve done enough research and will Invest once I start getting monthly salary from my FT Job.
Paris Olympics Lift Off with Extravagant Opening Ceremony
- The Paris Olympics began with a grand opening ceremony featuring 10,500 athletes parading along the Seine in an outdoor spectacle watched by a billion people. Despite heavy rain and earlier rail sabotage, the event proceeded with high security and elaborate performances. - Lady Gaga and Céline Dion were among the star performers, with Dion closing the show in a custom Dior dress. The ceremony included ballet dancers on the Louvre's roof and modern dancers along the quays, showcasing French culture and history. - Security was tight with 45,000 police deployed, and President Macron hosted over 100 heads of state. The event's ambitious format required meticulous planning and coordination, involving 15,000 performers and technicians. - The idea for the river-based ceremony came from Thierry Reboul, who envisioned it as a unique way to highlight Paris's historical and cultural landmarks. The show featured memorable moments like Zinedine Zidane passing the torch to Rafael Nadal. - Despite the high cost of €120mn, the ceremony aimed to put athletes at the center, offering them prime viewing spots on the boats. The event concluded with a light show from the Eiffel Tower and a hot air balloon bearing the Olympic cauldron. Source: Financial Times, BBC
