By Keisha P. Crabtree 3 weeks ago

One of the questions I get asked a lot from beginning investment professionals, is why follow stock market news? There are a number of reasons for this. You need to have a keenly tuned sense of what’s going on in the world of investments. Beyond that, you need to be able to make decisions based on logic and sound reasoning. 

And, perhaps most importantly, you need to be able to apply some of what you learn to your own investing activity. Here are the top three reasons why I strongly recommend that you take a look at some of the information and research that’s available via the great web sites mentioned below.

Jon Ossoff has billed himself as a hard-hitting “investigative journalist,” orchestrating exposés on “corruption, organized crime, and war crimes” as CEO of the documentary film company Insight TWI. But experts say that his 2015 documentary on China’s influence in Africa was naively framed and parroted CCP rhetoric.In the buildup to Georgia’s runoff elections on January 5, Senator David Perdue’s campaign has released multiple attack ads alleging that Ossoff “won’t hold China accountable” and suggesting that he might be vulnerable to CCP influence like fellow Democrat Eric Swalwell, who unwittingly formed a relationship with a Chinese spy early in his career.

It is ironic how society expects women to look beautiful and stay fashionable but discourages them when they start a business around the same themes. But this is just one among the many barricades women have bulldozed their way through to make a mark in the industry.

India’s cosmetic industry has been on a high growth curve and is expected to cross $20 billion by 2025. Only three years ago it was valued at $6.5 billion. With more and more women joining the workforce, the spending capacity of the country’s women has also been on the rise.
