But it has lost market share in metals futures trading and needs…
I’m feeling extremely optimistic about India’s future, as every right-thinking person would be. Of course, it’s also a time when most equity investors and analysts are worrying about the markets being too high. Based on what I’ve been writing these past few weeks, I, too, have been guilty of this. However, my point is not that the investors should try to time the market and stop investing, or even sell out.

BMW’s turbocharged four-cylinder engines from the mid-2010s have earned a reputation for being unreliable, primarily due to several issues, the most notorious being brittle plastic timing chain guides that can lead to engine failure. In a recent teardown video by the I Do Cars YouTube channel, they explored a failed N26 four-cylinder engine, shedding light on the reasons behind these widespread failures. A significant factor in this reliability issue appears to be BMW’s recommendation of a 15,000-mile oil change interval.

However, for those expecting answers on how Tesla plans to incorporate artificial intelligence into autonomous driving or launch a robotaxi service on par with Uber or Lyft, the event left much to be desired.
