A Consortium


A combination relevant,

A constellation approved,

A system endorsed,

Form a consortium.

 

 

A group of lenders,

Mostly a host of bankers,

Mainly a committee of financial reserve,

Structure a consortium.

 

 

A column of policies,

A compilation of rules,

An extension of principles,

Render a consortium.

 

 

An alteration in loans,

A modification of customary credit,

An amalgamation of fund flow,

Elaborate the consortium.

 

 

A mutual admission,

A comprehensive appreciation,

A composed credibility,

Sequence a consortium.

 

 

A scrupulous  follow-up,

A timely rendition,

An accurate work out,

Gather the consortium.

 

An association of  ventures,

A syndication of patents,

A pooling of  investments,

Link a consortium.

Man Of The Year


Times magazine has nominated Bernanke as the Man of the Year.

The citation reads that it is he who has averted the tumble-down of the economy by introducing stimulus  package along with Henry Paulson.

This comes in time, when his reappointment as Chairman of Federal  Reserve. , is being put up in the Senate Banking committee.

The committee flogged him for his dormancy when the banks hit the hilt with bad loans.

Today , he has been addressed as Man of the year.

Contradictory  is it not?

Bernanke himself accepts  that there is truth in both views.

The Fed slipped  while overseeing the safety and soundness of banks.He quips without the massive bail outs the nation would have diffused in a murky economic crisis. He and Paulson have worked on these plans to pull out the country from dire consequences.

Bernanke deserves this plaudits.

To err is human , but to correct oneself after acknowledging the error is greatness.

Bernanke has done just that.

His success lies on his rationality.

An Enchantment


The large deep-sea,

The great high hills,

The  vast flat plains,

Throw an enchantment.

 

The  thick blue water,

The lush green trees,

The sombre brown land,

Ruminate an enchantment.

 

The flip flapping tides,

The rustle rustling leaves

The beep beeping wind,

Sound an enchantment.

 

The tossing fish,

The loitering birds,

The crossing human,

Profess an enchantment.

 

The ingenuous Nature,

With its profane beauty,

With its pictorial hue ,

Promises an enchantment

Whetting The Appetite.


The Fed is concerned about the wrecked economy but not equally condescending towards wrecked lives.

Unemployment is staring hard.

Hundreds of American graduates will face the sign “No Employment”, in the years to come.They would be in a catastrophic cataclysm, in the most abysmal precipice, so  that a generation would be doomed , if  steps are not taken seriously  to create jobs.

Every month the Fed has to create 300,000 jobs.A missed step would bring with it a stream of woe and  disillusionment .

Many young Americans would be put up to enormous hardships. Their would not be earnings. The fiscal situation sounds alarming and indignation prevails among the majority.

The Obama administration has satisfied itself of reviving the economy  to the brink by introducing the stimulus. But the package has proved insufficient for complete recovery.

The political churning has stopped the liberal transposition ,as the Republicans were not in favour of further advances and the Democrats also shied away  from extending pay outs.

Constrained by this political  gimmicks and unwelcome symptoms the Obama government had to subjugate itself  to an insufficient quota ,thus rendering an uneasy work out that could not complete the project to the fullest  satisfaction.

The drawback of not fulfilling the commissioned bail out to the best of the purpose has left the machinery in a state of perplexity .The half-finished programme has let the government badly  and made Bernanke’s vision an unfledged dream.

The senate has to gratify the public ,by sanctioning a compensatory  lukewarm tenement ,thus enforcing a comfortable schedule  to reopen a new avenue  in the field of employment.

Jobs can not be created in a haphazard fashion. They have to come out of the establishment of new industries , inducting infrastructure  emoluments and restructuring the closed financial institutions.

To do these , the government needs money . The funds have  to be in surplus ,as paucity leads to derailment.The elected representatives have to take a careful look  and react appropriately,keeping in mind the youth of U.S..

The Nervous Economy


The Economy is still nervous and it needs support.

Without the stimulus , it is bound to fall.

The Japanese government has opened up a stimulus package to direct the economy in the right path.

The gold surge has come to a halt.

It went so high that the metal became an intangible buy.

Along with it ,its sibling silver was steadily moving ahead.

Now ,both the precious metals are closing down , creating a respite among the buyers.

The stocks which were etching out an upward move , seem to progress in a restricted manner.

There seems to be a buoyancy on a few days , punctuated by a strong restriction on the other days.

That is business . The ups and downs mean true business. If there is an expectation of always high hike then there will not exist any transaction.

The charm in business ,is in the rise and the fall. The rise forces a sell and the fall assumes a buy.So much so, the interest tagged to real value in business is the sweet blow up and the bitter pull down.

This tempo maintains a competition ,that is encouraging and at the same time associates with a momentum that will enliven the economy.

The time has come , where the economy has reached a status that is expected ,and that is in not static.

The year 2009  will end up with the right spirit, almost nullifying the downtrodden feeling that prevailed in 2008.

The year 2010 will rule up with a simmering hope of great acceptance of the economy  as it appears in its raw threshold.

The world would have to ike out a possible procedure to bring in a stamping significance in upholding the sordid scope in which Economy has been cast.

Sound Of Rain


Tut , tut

falls the rain,

on the roof top.

  

Thud ,thud ,

falls the rain,

On the garden path.

  

  

Drop, drop,

falls  the rain

from the trees.

  

Drip, drip,

falls the rain,

from the  houses.

  

Lap ,lap

falls the rain

over the  hill

 

Grunt , grunt,

falls the rain ,

over the  sea.

Ugh, ugh,

falls the rain ,

from the sky.

 

Hush, hush,

the rain pours,

keep vigil.

Hedging Wealth


Hedging funds have actually hedged wealth.

Galleon has come to the forefront as  a fraudulent company,

How many similar funds go unscathed?

How many influential persons have escaped attention, because of their  rapport with the governing politicians.?

Such kind of Galleon’s exposition is possible in U.S.

But in India and other developing countries frauds multiply, like mosquitoes breed in damp climate.

The regulatory forum is itself corrupt.

The insider trading is an old trick followed by the so-called tycoons.

They make money, pay the brokers heavily, and revel in high living and posh external manifestations.

It is these top placed business men, who come out with philanthropic deals, funding this , adopting that.

India , is known for nurturing the nourished, caring the most cared, and pampering the existing splendour.

The Indian way of freebies, is spoiling the already spoilt  poor.

The exact process of making them independent financially, physically and in relation to mental stability is absolutely floundered by the  government.

Today they give a colour T.V.

Tomorrow they provide a Gas cylinder for cooking.

Day after they extend health care.

Yesterday they allowed  free electricity.

Provision is distributed. The usage is not scrutinised.

The free bies  reward the needy.

They also shell out handsome kick backs to the intermediaries and politicians.The administration settles in for a brand which sends out high  pay off, in the manner of commission.The brokerage is proportioned according to the scale of position.

As the government is busy scheduling all these resolutions, a far serious regulation is overseen.

The over sightedness in  containing the loopholes drives a big hole in the transactions.

 In and Out the hedge fund managers, with their high-profile, and excess money, bag purchases, trap the bureaucrats.

The out come of such irrational, wicked directions, is a collection of materials in a big shopping bag.

This monetary accrual ,most times  are so overwhelming, that they bulge and tear the container in which they are stored.

The truth unobtrusively pops out.

It is again the people,who  are cheated. They unwittingly relish on  a few thousand free  bies while their co habitants glorify in millions and billions.

Well , that is a way o life.

The world survives in cheat , slander, and stealing

.The hedge fund  back drops are exhibits of great theft.

The Beast in Man.


 

Goodness in you,

If turned away

If pushed below,

Capacitates the beast in you.

 

Kindness in you,

If  tossed away,

If rejected  through,

Enables the beast in you.

 

Love in you,

If deviated away,

If blown blue,

Enforces the beast in you.

 

Mercy in you,

If   diverted away,

If bade adieu,

Evolves the beast in You.

 

The beatitude in you.

If  held in sway,

If  expressed true,

Preserves the angel in you.

Cats And Dogs.


“Raining cats and dogs “is the common saying.

An incessant rain is given this fitting tribute.

Why did rain gets associated with cats and dogs of all animals.?

I wonder. 

Today , being a sunday, and as I have nothing to do, (as if I perform on the week days,) my introspection runs riot.

Yes , why cats ?and why dogs?

Cats are known for their stealthiness

Dogs  are acclaimed for their faithfulness.

Cats cheat .

Dogs keep vigil.

Cats are cunning.

Dogs are  trustworthy.

Cats purr  noiselessly.

Dogs  bark loudly.

Cats scratch.

Dogs bite.

Cats climb.

Dogs run.

These animals with  the pronounced  dissimilarities  are seemingly used to portray incessant down pour.

  

The past four days, I have been watching heavy rains, medium down pour and slight drizzle.The activity is continuous without intervals.

The sky is overworking, as the Sun  shone with great force and power a week back.

Nature is labouring round the clock.

Well. what about the  phrase , raining cats and dogs.

Deliberating the whole afternoon has not yielded any significant interpretation.

My City


Narrow roads  cross,

Small lanes overlap,

Dead ends  collide.

Cars move on,

Carts go on,

Autos jump on,

Buses drive on,

Lorries hold on.

Men walk stately,

Cattle loiter royally,

Vendors sell merrily,

Hawkers cry loudly,

Police overlook  steadily,

Trespassers overwhelm boldly,

Loud speakers blare noisily,

Divine chants emanate  soberly,

Chaos  in  excellent preserve,

Noise in wonderful reserve,

Happiness in fabulous deserve,

Do you like my city?
