Beyond the Optics with Tulip Nandu

Beyond the Optics with Tulip Nandu

Tulip Nandu

The main purpose of this podcast is to help build curiosity amongst the listeners on the various realms of topics that I will be discussing on the pod. It is also to challenge the status quo and go beyond the optics into the nitty gritty of the topic and get a larger and a different perspective.I'll be talking about Finance, Economic Policies, Politics, self-help and all the learnings I  have gathered from everyday life. The broad-based topics will be a gateway to go beyond the optics and give a more balanced view, a contrarian view and how we can adapt and learn from them and most importantly apply in our day to day life. I'll try to cut through the noise, be objective and use scientific research to show how these learnings and their implementation lead to sustained self growth.

  • 15 - Ep15: Going beyond the optics and decoding the past, present and future of economic growth with Arvind Mallik

    As we wind down this year, let us look back and contemplate the past year in terms of economic growth and discuss what's the outlook for the upcoming year. In September 2023, financial well being sentiment found much needed stability, although the Fed held rates and signaled elevated rates for longer, but there are some who predict the 
    US. economic growth will buckle under mounting headwinds early next year with a shallow recession. That's what Nouriel Roubini and others have predicted. Real GDP will grow at about 2. 2 percent and then fall to about 0. 8%. The consumer spending actually held up despite the elevated inflation and high interest rates in the past , couple of months and the growth that seemed to be weakened in the first quarter also bounced back in Q2.  All those are the numbers, but to package all that I have with me on my pod today, Mr. Arvind Mallik. He's the managing partner of KMF Investments which is a pure pay for performance private investment partnership based out of Denton, Texas. KMF seeks a long term capital appreciation by investing in companies whose intrinsic value is significantly higher than the market price. And since its founding in 2008 KMF has found opportunities in the world dominating franchises, hard assets below replacement cost businesses at large, discounts to liquidation value, and firms with beneficial exposure to rising interest rates.
    The whole concept behind this is retaining value and increasing the value addition as we call it in finance terms. And Mr. Malik has education to back it up with a degree in chemical engineering  and bioengineering from  UC Berkeley, and also has a MS in chemical engineering from MIT.

  • 12 - Ep12: Traveling with kids - An adventure of a lifetime

    "Not all classrooms have four walls." 
    Any parent or educator or anyone who has spent any time with kids can attest to the truth of these words! Kids are innately curious about their surroundings so when their surrounding changes, they are bound to learn!

    Hello and welcome, after a brief break I’m back with a new episode on a topic that is very close to my heart and something that I’m passionate about. Travel and travelling with kids is what I love talking about and also try and make the most of the opportunities I get to travel with my two sons.  This episode is an attempt by me to list some wonderful learnings parents can take out of traveling with their new born kids / infant, toddlers and beyond and share some personal experiences too.
