In the latest edition of Market Masters, Devina Mehra, Founder and CMD of First Global, discusses the state of Indian markets, the F&O trading frenzy, and the deeper implications of SEBI’s recent action against Jane Street. With over 30 years of experience in global markets, Devina lays bare the uncomfortable truths behind the trading hype, the staggering retail losses in derivatives, and why most people chasing quick profits are bound to fail. She explains why investing — not trading — is the only path to sustainable wealth, but only if done with discipline, diversification, and a long-term mindset. From debunking the myth of “buy and forget” to emphasizing the need for global asset allocation.
