May Week Was In June $13.63 Somebody once said that a trilogy ought ideally to consist of two volumes. Unfortunately he never said anything else, so his name is forgotten.’ Falling Towards England, the second volume of Clive James’ Unreliable Memoirs, was meant to be the last. Thankfully it is not. When we last met our hero he was living a hand-to-mouth existence while London was swinging its way into the Sixties. Pembroke College, Cambridge offered a way out, if not up. Here Clive threw himself into Footlights, film reviewing, writing poetry, falling in love (often), anything so long as it wasn’t on the curriculum. He became literary editor of Granta, wrote for the New Statesman, took Footlights to the Edinburgh Fringe, and worked on Expresso Drongo , arguably the worst film ever screened at the NFT. Then during May Week, which was not only in June but was two weeks long, he married . . . and most of the rest is history. Inevitably sharp and always outrageously funny, Clive James is perhaps the most brilliant on the subject he knows best: himself. James, in an equivocal and not necessarily disparaging sense of the world, is a conceited writer, the Cleveland of modern English prose, every line propelled by a firecracker witticism . . . It’s a funny book’ Frank Kermode, London Review of Books Nobody writes like Clive James; he has invented a style’ Spectator In his prose, he can turn phrases, mix together cleverness and clownishness, and achieve a fluency and a level of wit that make his pages truly shimmer . . . May Week Was In June is vintage James’ Financial Times |

D-Street may continue to tread water by ZeeBuddy
Persistent financial jitters across Europe and US may force Indian stock market to remain volatile this week.
Besides, turbulent global markets, expiry of derivative contracts for September, the depreciating rupee and fears of weak Q2 results will also add to investor woes.
Volatility is expected to rise as traders roll over positions in the futures & options (F&O) segment from the near-month September 2011 series to October 2011 contracts. The September 2011 derivatives contracts expire on Thursday, 29 September 2011.
The BSE Sensex succumbed to selling pressure and fell almost 772 points to end the week at 16,162.06 amid grim prospects of global economic growth.
The broad 50 share index Nifty corrected to nearly 4,800 levels taking year to date losses to 20 percent.
According to experts, markets sentiment was mainly dominated by the falling rupee and 'operation twist' by the US Federal Reserve.
Sentiments were also worsened by the reports that nearly a quarter of the top 100 companies have paid lower advance tax in the second quarter of financial year 2011-12, highlighting slowdown in growth and margin pressure due to higher input costs and interest burden.
The advance tax payment by top 100 companies rose a modest 9.9 percent in Q2 September 2011 from a year ago against 19 percent growth in Q1 June 2011, suggesting corporate profit growth is likely to be muted in the second quarter.
The Federal Reserve said at the end of a two-day policy meeting on 21 September 2011 that it will buy USD 400 billion in longer-dated securities in the period until mid-2012 through the selling of shorter-term securities.
US Fed also remained downbeat on the economic situation and refrained from introducing further quantitative easing at this stage by saying that there are significant downside risks to the US economic outlook and also noted strain in global financial markets.
This in turn triggered a sharp deterioration in risk appetite which pushed the dollar sharply higher. The rupee was subjected to further selling pressure during the week and dipped to 28-month lows to 49.90.
Investors will closely watch the management commentary at the time of announcement of Q2 September 2011 results, which will provide cues on futures earnings outlook.
IT bellwether Infosys kickstarts the Q2 September 2011 earnings season on 12 October 2011. Housing finance major HDFC unveils Q2 results on 17 October 2011.
Though the near-term situation seems bleak, investors willing to commit their capital for a longer term can look upon the current crisis as an opportunity to buy good quality stocks at bargain prices.
