Vijay Kedia's Mantras

Indian Drug Regulation Needs a VITAMIN

The Indian pharmaceutical industry ranks third internationally in volume. India is a chief exporter of pharmaceuticals with more than 200 nations served by Indian pharma exports. India supplies more than 50% of Africa’s requirement for generics, around 40% of generic demand in the USA, and around 25% of all medicine in the UK. Although India is proud of being the ‘pharmacy of the world,’ it would be right to say that the drugs regulatory bodies and laws must take the spate of oft-warnings more seriously. In the recent past, India has been beaten by a few mega pharma worries. The world mostly depends on the Indian pharmaceutical industry. However, growing worries over quality and the absence of drug regulations policy lead to the query of whether India is dwindling in its role.

FED'S MODELS ARE EMPIRICALLY FALSE

The Fed assumes so many things about markets that are simply false, like that markets are always efficient, for example. They’re not. Under volatile conditions like these they gap up and down — they don’t move in rational, predictable increments. Fed’s models are empirically false. Equilibrium models like the Fed uses basically say the world runs like a clock and occasionally it gets knocked out of equilibrium. And all you have to do is tweak policy or manipulate some variable to push it back into equilibrium. They treat markets like they’re some kind of machine. But Twenty-first-century markets aren’t machines and they don’t work in this clockwork fashion. The Fed uses equilibrium models to understand an economy that is not an equilibrium system; it’s a complex dynamic system. The Fed uses the Phillips curve to understand the relationship between unemployment and inflation when 50 years of data say there is no fixed relationship. James Rickards tries to put the record straight.

Bill Gates is at it Again Plotting a Global Pandemic Prison State

Bill Gates advocates once again for a Global Health Emergency Corps, ensconced at the WHO and managed by the same people who created the pandemic response this time around. In other words, it would be the core of the global government pushing more lockdowns for the world—lockdowns to wait for another round of vaccines. He has learned nothing from the last mess that he created. Indeed, he is completely shameless about it. In his view, the only problem is that we didn’t lock down fast enough, get vaccines out fast enough, and conduct enough research ahead of time to craft the perfect vaccine. Jeffrey A. Tucker says, Gates is the de facto owner of the World Health Organization himself, so his push for a permanent pandemic bureaucracy carries a lot of weight.

The Endgame In Ukraine

US President Joe Biden has denied Zelensky’s request so far, but he previously ruled out sending tanks before finally giving in. The same thing will probably happen with the planes. What’s could be the Ukrainian’s next demand? This entire scenario is a long slow march toward nuclear war or the complete disintegration of Ukraine. The Biden administration has essentially turned the war in Ukraine into an existential crisis for the U.S. and NATO, when it never should have been. But the war is existential for Russia, and won’t give up. Is the U.S. just going to throw up its hands and concede Russian victory? NATO may actually disintegrate in the face of such spectacular failure. Maybe a desperate Biden orders troops into western Ukraine as a buffer against a complete Russian takeover of the country. That situation may quickly devolve into a direct war between the U.S. and Russia rather than the says that it’s becoming increasingly likely.
