There is a lot of economic models used by people nowadays, and one basic presumption underlies all of them:

Manpower = productivity.

However, with increasing pace of automation and AI development, it may become invalid gradually.

In case machines will be able to perform such tasks as:

Coding

Designing

Support services

Even making decisions

It starts posing certain questions:

What will become of consumption driven by wages?

How to impose taxes on productivity that does not involve humans?

Will it lead us to brand-new economic model creation?

Such economic experiment was never undertaken before by mankind.

And the question is not even about jobs disappearing but rather about a necessity to change the whole economic structure.

In the latest rounds of IPOs, there's something that stands out clearly:

All issues are not getting equal amounts of attention any longer.

While previous rounds were more of:

→ Oversubscribed everywhere

→ Interest from retail due to listing premium

→ Momentum-driven applications

It's more about:

→ Fundamental driven selectivity

→ Variable subscription pattern between IPOs

→ Changing sentiment quickly between issues

Potential reasons include:

Lower liquidity situation

Increased focus on relative valuations for stocks

Indirect sentiment impact due to global factors (interest rates, macros)

Selective institutional interest

Nevertheless, good companies continue to garner robust interest.

Community question:

👉 Moving from a "broad IPO boom" to "selective IPO stock pick phase"?

👉 Filters are you yourself applying before applying today?

(For discussion purpose only, not recommendation)

Not a political post – just trying to figure out how macro affects IPOs.

With all the talk about changing policies that could happen in the US with new presidents such as Donald Trump, I was thinking whether there will be any indirect effect on IPOs in India.

Some ways:

FII flows: Changing US economic policy can affect liquidity into emerging markets

Dollar strength: Affects valuation and risk sentiments

Global sector rotation: Preference for manufacturing, defense, energy changes

Risk sentiments: Global uncertainties affect IPO flow

While all this is happening, the fundamentals of the Indian economy continue to look good.

What do you think?

👉 Does global politics affect Indian IPO subscriptions & pricing?

👉 Or are we now mostly affected by domestic fundamentals?

We’re seeing:

• Persistent inflation in multiple regions
• Debt levels hitting historic highs
• Central banks losing policy flexibility
• Digital currencies being explored aggressively

It feels like the post-2008 system is slowly being rewritten.

Not collapse… but transformation.

What’s your honest take — are we adapting or drifting?

While everyone is focused on daily headlines, a quiet realignment is happening between major global powers in trade, energy, and tech supply chains.

Countries are no longer just “ally vs rival” — they’re becoming “multi-aligned,” working with different blocs depending on the issue.

This could reshape:

• Global oil prices
• AI chip access
• Currency dominance
• Even education & migration flows

We might be entering a world where alliances are temporary, not permanent.

What do you think: is this stability or chaos in disguise?
