Private banks are seeing a sharp rebound in profitability. 🏦📈 IDFC First Bank leads the pack with 132% YoY profit growth in Q1 FY27, followed by IndusInd Bank at 72%, while AU Small Finance Bank and Federal Bank delivered growth of around 37%. But with banks, profit growth alone never tells the full story — NIMs, deposit growth, asset quality and credit costs ultimately decide how sustainable these numbers are. A strong quarter is encouraging. Consistency is what creates long-term value #SMCGlobal #Banks #SMCGlobal #Banks

Silver has had a phenomenal year — and Silver ETFs have captured almost the entire rally. 🥈📈 Leading funds have delivered close to 100% returns over the past year, with Tata Silver ETF at 100.87%, followed closely by ICICI Prudential and DSP. Interestingly, the tiny difference between ETFs reinforces an important point: when the underlying asset is the same, look beyond past returns and consider tracking error, expense ratio and liquidity. A remarkable year for silver — but past performance is no guarantee of what comes next. #Investing #Silver #SMCGlobal #Investing #Silver #SMCGlobal
