Most people want to be an investor

But most investors don’t know how to read a cash flow statement

Here’s how to read a cash flow statement:

 The Cash Flow Statement shows how cash moves in and out of a company.

The cash flow statement is presented in the quarterly and annual company filings
The things I ask myself:

-Is operating cash flow positive or negative? (Positive)
-Is capital expenditures less than OCF? (Yes)
-Is the company buying back stock or issuing new shares? (Buying back)

These are 3 simple questions to ask yourself before reading one
Cash flow is divided into 3 sections:

-Cash from operating activities
-Cash from investing activities
-Cash from financing activities

These are the 3 main components of every cash flow statement.
1. Operating Activities

Cash flows from operating activities explains the cash flows within the business for its normal operations over a particular period.

This will show whether a company is capable of generating positive cash flow to maintain and grow its operations.
1A. Operating Activities

The most important thing when looking at operating activities is to make sure the number is positive.

If the number is positive this means it is generating more money than it’s spending for the normal operations.
1B. Operating Activities

If the number is negative this means the company could be in major long term trouble. They will most likely have to take on debt to fund their company.

If a company is taking on debt to fund their operations, they will not survive
2. Investing Activities

Cash flows from investing activities comes from the profit and losses from investments that the company has made

Any long-term physical or intangible asset that the company expects to deliver value in the future will be included
2A. Investing Activities

Common line items in this section include:

-Purchase of Property, Plant, and Equipment (PP&E)
-Proceeds from disposal of PPE
-Proceeds from sell of stocks
-Acquisitions
3. Financing Activities

Cash Flow from financing activities explains the cash flows used to fund the company’s operations and payback their shareholders along with creditors
3A. Financing Activities

Common line items include:

-Borrowing of long-term debt
-Repayment of Long-term debt
-Repayment of short-term debt
-Proceeds from stock options
-Proceeds from stock offering
-Repurchases of Common Stock
-Dividends Paid
4. Free Cash Flow

The most important numbers you can gather from the cash flow statement is free cash flow

FCF tells investors and analysts how much cash a business generates after growing and maintaining it’s business
4A. Free Cash Flow

This cash can be paid to shareholders as a dividend, be used to pay down debt, buyback shares or to just keep as cash on balance sheet

This is a very important metric to gauge when valuing a stock

You should look for a company with FCF of 10%+
These are the 3 main sections in the cash flow statement

Learning how to read and analyze these are crucial when purchasing individual stocks

In closing, the cash flow statement shows how much cash different activities generate (or cost) a particular business over time

WHY BABUR NEVER TRIED TO ATTACK SRI KRISHNADEVARAYA ?

A🧵u must read

It is very well known that Babur considered Krishna Dev Raya as the strongest ruler of the entire subcontinent, and Vijayanagar empire the strongest during that time in India.

1/10


The Vijayanagar empire reached its peak during 1509-1529 around the reign of Krishna Dev Raya.

Vijayanagar’s famed elephant brigade 👇

2/10


At his command there were over 50000 elite troops with a regiment of Portuguese gunners and 3200 cavalry with 600 elephants.

3/10

Along with that more than four hundred thousand ( four lakh) peasant levies and irregular military made this empire one of the largest in all of South Asia.

A typical Vijayanagar levie soldier 👇

4/10


During Baburs invasion, Krishna Dev Raya ruled supreme in all of deccan.

In fact, in an all our brawl, Krisha Dev Raya will beat Babur fair and square.

Babur could muster at max 50000 troops with 50 canons.

While Krishna Dev Raya had these numbers in Hampi alone

EVOLUTION OF CROWNS

The ancient Indian kings called a head crown as a Mukut and it would mostly constitute of a golden ornamental headgear like an oval cap with gems.

Sometimes it would also include a halo circle to show the divinity of the king

1/7


As it was considered that kings were appointment by the gods themselves. Example the kings of mewar considered themselves to be the ‘Diwan of eklingji')

But in most cases very few Mukut with halo effect have been found.

2/7

Samudragupta in the gupta era coin. You can see the helmet like headwear on him.

Till gupta era the solid golden head wear was used in most days of the monarch.

But since the onset of 8th century it reduced in usage and was now used only as a ceremonial headwear.

3/7


Whereas earlier the Maharaja had to wear the mukut whenever his court was in session.

Still mukut was being used prominently for ceremonial activities till recent times.

Maharaj Dahir of Sindh👇

4/7


But as times past the style of headwear also changed.

The kings mostly wore turbans ordained with pearls and gems while rarely anyone wore a true Mukut after 16th century.

Srikanteshwara Temple,
#Nanjangud  #Karnatakatemples 🚩

Srikanteshwara Temple or
Nanjundeshwara Temple is a famous Shiva Temple located in Karnataka at the bank of river  Kapila. Temple is also called Varanasi of South. Nanjunda means one who has consumed poison.


Story is  related to the Samudra Mathanam when Paramashiva had to consume halahala.

Parashurama worshipped Mahadeva here to relieve himself from the curse of Mathru Hatya. While clearing the place to do poojas Parashurama's  axe hit the Shivalingam and it began bleeding, that


mark is still visible even today. Thus
it is also believed that Parashurama did Shiva Prathishta here

Sthala Puranam says that, once there was a demon named Keshi who disturbed the people in the area, after  getting blessing from Brahma Deva  and Mahavishnu. Mahadeva appeared


here and killed demon Keshi and blessed this place as Papa Vinashini. Whoever praying to Srikanteshwara or Nanjundeshwara, after bathing in the  Kabini River will be relieved from all sins.

Nanjundeshwaraya Namah

How will next 10-15 years be different for India?
In the next 10 years,India will undertake massive infrastructure projects which will propel India to a $5 Trillion economy

A thread🧵on how India is spending big on Infrastructure upgradation like never before

Lets go👇

(1/17)


How big is India's Infra push?

India spent $14 Trillion on infrastructure in the 75 years since its independence.

$7 trillion was in the last 9 years.

Another $7 Trillion will be spent in the next 9 years!

Big Big Spending is coming in!

(2/17)


So where is this money being spent?

1. Roads
There has been an increase in the construction of National Highways (NHs)/roads over
time, with 10,457 km of roads constructed in FY22 as compared to 6,061 km in FY16.

(3/17)


In FY23(until October 2022), 4,060 km of NHs/roads were constructed, which was around 91 per cent of the achievement in the corresponding period of the previous financial year

(4/17)


The ambition is to take the rate of daily highway construction in India to 100km per day

Dubbed India’s ‘highway revolution’,
Rapid highway construction is central to the country’s push to transform itself into a staggering US$5 trillion economy by 2025.

The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People has sold more than 40 million copies.

Don't have time to read it?
—No worries.

Here are the 7 key lessons you should apply:


Habit #1 — BE PROACTIVE

It all starts with action.

Rather than being "reactive" (externally influenced).
Focus on being "proactive" (initiative-taking).

This puts you in firm control of your life.


Habit #2 — BEGIN WITH THE END IN MIND

"No wind is favorable if one does not know to which port one is sailing."

I use this goal-setting system to stay on track myself:

Who do I want to be --> Monthly goal to achieve it? --> Daily action to reach that goal?

I update weekly.


Habit #3 — FIRST THINGS FIRST

Knowing the work that moves the needle is half the battle.

The Eisenhower Matrix can come in handy here:

Urgent + Important - Do it
Important + Not urgent - Schedule it
Urgent + Not important - Delegate it
Not urgent + Not important - Delete it


Habit #4 — THINK WIN-WIN

Always strive to find a mutually beneficial solution.

How to:
- Be as objective as possible
- Try to see from their perspective
- Determine what a "win" truly means for both parties
- Work to find the best solution for both parties

I've spoken to 1,500+ people about remote work in the last 9 months

A few predictions of what is likely to emerge before 2030

[ a thread ] 💻🏠🌍

🚜 Rural Living: World-class people will move to smaller cities, have a lower cost of living & higher quality of life

These regions must innovate quickly to attract that wealth. Better schools, faster internet connections are a must

⏰Asynchronous Work: Offices are instantaneous gratification distraction factories where synchronous work makes it impossible to get stuff done

Tools that enable asynchronous work are the most important thing globally remote teams need. A lot of startups will try to tackle this

⚽️Hobbie Renaissance: Remote working will lead to a rise in people participating in hobbies and activities which link them to people in their local community

This will lead to deeper, more meaningful relationships which overcome societal issues of loneliness and issolation

🌍Diversity & Inclusion: The most diverse and inclusive teams in history will emerge rapidly

Companies who embrace it have a first-mover advantage to attract great talent globally. Companies who don't will lose their best people to their biggest competitors

Keep dwelling on this:
Further Examination of the Motif near PRRA Reveals Close Structural Similarity to the SEB Superantigen as well as Sequence Similarities to Neurotoxins and a Viral SAg.

The insertion PRRA together with 7 sequentially preceding residues & succeeding R685 (conserved in β-CoVs) form a motif, Y674QTQTNSPRRAR685, homologous to those of neurotoxins from Ophiophagus (cobra) and Bungarus genera, as well as neurotoxin-like regions from three RABV strains

(20) (Fig. 2D). We further noticed that the same segment bears close similarity to the HIV-1 glycoprotein gp120 SAg motif F164 to V174.

Thread A History lesson for the MOAB:
1. The United States of America is not and has never been a Democracy, we're a Federal Republic tied together by the capital Laws of the Constitution.

Everyone in the country is about to get a harsh lesson on what this really means...

2. In 1871, February 21: Congress Passes an Act to Provide a Government for the District of Columbia, also known as the Act of 1871.

With no constitutional authority to do so, Congress creates a separate form of
government for the District of Columbia.

3. A ten mile square parcel of land (see,
Acts of the Forty-first Congress,” Section 34, Session III, chapters 61 and

4. The act — passed when the country was weakened and financially depleted in
the aftermath of the Civil War — was a strategic move by foreign interests
(international bankers) who were intent upon gaining a stranglehold on the coffers and neck of America.

5. Congress cut a deal w/ the international bankers(Rothschilds of London) to incur a DEBT to said bankers. Because the bankers were not about to lend money to a floundering nation w/out serious stipulations, they devised a way to get their foot in the door of the United States.
