This indicates primary producers (commodity, energy & food producers) have regained their purchasing power which they enjoyed in the pre-GFC era or to an extent between 2010-14. First time in close to a decade input price inflation for businesses have surpassed end consumer price inflation as is reflected in the given chart which compares core WPI & core CPI inflation. One of the shifts is, pricing power coming back to primary producers. Even for astute bottom-up stock pickers, these rumbling can be heard from an ear on the ground. There have been tectonic shifts in the global macro environment in the last 18-20 months (post the first wave of the pandemic & the related economic dislocation) the impact of which will get more & more pronounced and will impact different sectors differently. From a sectoral performance perspective power, metal & real estate sectors were the leaders this year & FMCG, Pharma & Auto were the laggards. The broader markets have performed even better with BSE Midcap & Small Cap returning 39.1% & 55.6% respectively as on 30th Nov 2021. Overall, from an economical perspective, the year started with low demand, low inflation & low-interest-rate environment & is ending with a supply constraint & high inflation environment with expectations of the global interest rate rising in 2022.Īmidst all this ‘gloom, boom & doom’ the S&P CNX Sensex has given a return of 20.6% YTD as on 30th Nov 2021. The fag end of the year has again increased anxieties about a possible third wave due to the ‘Omicron’ variant. Post the month of June, restrictions were eased & economic activity picked up again. April-21, May-21 & June-21 again saw lock downs & restrictions on mobility albeit less severe than the previous one in 2020.

The fact that it’s not in-your-face with annoying pop-ups and that it actually works means that it is a worthy competitor against the other Play Store apps.The year 2021 started with a sense of hope with an expectation of end game for pandemic & related economic woes with the proliferation of the vaccines. Overall, AMC provided a decent experience. Of course you’ll need a premium subscription though. Anti-theft, battery saver, app manager, privacy locker, call blocker and a wide variety of handy features mean that it’s really got your back.
While I had 3GB in excess files, this was really just a fraction of my total space available.īut perhaps AMC’s strongest point is the wide variety of things you can use it for. The same goes for the feature that cleans out your storage and cache. As the proud owner of an LG G4, I saw no difference in speed and the user interface, and can only assume that features like this are designed for people who have budget-orientated phones. The purpose of the app is to mainly clear out excessive storage hogs, offer an anti-virus and boost your phone speed.
There’s a sign-in feature that is recommended for long-term users, and for those planning to use a premium subscription.Ī premium subscription will unlock extra features, but comes as a pricey extra at $9.99 per year. After a brief introduction to the features, you proceed straight to the main screen.
