From the Stock Market to Neighbourhood Mohalla
by Prasad Krishna published Dec 17, 2010 last modified Aug 02, 2011 06:05 AM — filed under: ,
The stock markets have been the symbol of trade and commerce of the city and the region.

The change in information technology has had a profound effect on the business methodologies of the stock brokers and traders in the last few years with possibilities for buying and selling during the market hours from any internet enabled device. The pundits have announced that the “market is in your pocket or at the comfort of your home”. Is it really so or is the change more subtle? Moreover how will our cities and their public place transform from such shift?
