    Trump’s tariff war: Fallout of a failed misadventure (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    October 2026 marks a year-and-a-half since President Donald Trump’s declaration of April 2, 2025, as Liberation Day. Liberation, presumably, was from an unkept promise by the US that its openness to trade would signal a commitment to the principles of free trade. Trump’s justification for ‘reneging’ on that false promise was a claim that the main trading partners of the US had resorted to unfair means to invade America’s market and protect their own, leading to the bilateral trade defi

    Are foreign resources crucial for growth? (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    The curious case of global fertilizer prices (opens the original)

Both matter greatly for farmers and agricultural production: high energy costs add to the costs of transport and irrigation for cultivators, while high fertilizer costs not only add to costs, but can also lead to lower crop yields if farm

    Battling to hold the rupee (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    In early June, the Ministry of Finance and Reserve Bank of India (RBI) announced a set of unusual measures to stabilise the rupee. Instead of resorting to ‘open market intervention’ through dollar sales to prop up the rupee’s value, the Ministry and the central bank went along two routes: (i) they enlarged access to the government securities (G-Secs) markets for foreign portfolio investors (FPIs), by expanding the list of government securities open to them under the Fully Accessible Route (which
