newTurnaround specialists can help turn failing firms around if legal hazards are kept out of their way
Turnaround specialists can play a vital role in reviving distressed firms and preserving enterprise value, but they risk legal provisions holding them liable for past actions they had no role in. To speed up corporate resolution, the government should offer them safe harbour.

OpenClaw: Did OpenAI just acquire a powerful new tool—or a security nightmare?
OpenClaw was snapped up by Sam Altman’s OpenAI soon after it burst into fame—but he may soon discover how hard it is to keep OpenClaw’s otherwise impressive AI agents under human control. Sometimes due diligence is best done the old fashioned way.

Devina Mehra: The wise investor would not take fairy tales about 'sure-shot' multi-year themes seriously
Remember the ESG theme? It has all but vanished. Now AI is being held up as the latest multi-year investment theme. But the truth is that a technology can be revolutionary without delivering winners. What we saw with railroads and the internet could happen in AI too.

National Monetization Pipeline 2.0: The latest plan’s size is impressive but its success isn’t guaranteed
The Centre’s plan to monetize public assets by turning control over to private operators can unlock funds needed to accelerate India’s infrastructure build-up. But we must keep this process even-handed and well regulated. Airport privatization provides a cautionary tale on monopoly pricing power.

Let the Bitcoin bubble deflate: It’s time to tokenize assets that hold intrinsic value

AI’s impact on human employment will vary in line with what tasks are open to automation
Technology rarely wipes out entire professions. So too with the rise of AI in offices. Jobs differ from tasks and we can expect artificial intelligence to take over the tasks that are routine, codifiable and easy to automate. This need not reduce jobs as much as rejig them.

Why delinking the Finance Commission’s devolution from state FC reports is a flawed idea
The 16th Finance Commission argues that devolution can no longer realistically draw upon state finance commission reports as inputs. But while delinking the constitutional chain may seem practical, it’s not principled. Is this reform—or a retreat from fiscal federalism?

Why the Supreme Court's caution on freebies demands the attention of India’s political class
India’s apex court has done well to caution political parties against splurging on indiscriminate freebies. We can only guess what electoral gains such pre-poll declarations deliver, but they clearly strain public finances. Bad economics can eventually be bad politics too.

Is gold still a good investment at this price? Investors should assess every factor behind its rise
Gold’s upshoot has been powered by central bank buying, geopolitical turmoil and other factors. A Fed revaluation could alter dynamics too. But for any collectible that defies objective valuation, historical trends matter. Piling in without weighing various drivers could prove costly.

The US Supreme Court’s tariff rebuff: It’s time for Congress to assert its constitutional authority
The US Supreme Court ruling on reciprocal tariffs is a wake-up call for Congress. It was designed to be democracy’s first branch, not a bystander. Yet as Donald Trump pushed sweeping tariffs, lawmakers stood aside. America’s democracy must not let legislative negligence persist.

Most of Trump’s tariffs got turfed out: Does that change the case for a trade deal with the US?
The rejection of America’s reciprocal tariffs by its Supreme Court may change Trump’s tariff toolkit but it doesn’t alter India’s need for trade liberalization. Easing imports are in the interest of our own economy. Think of it as a bet on India’s future at a moment of opportunity.
