If Politics were a game of perception; can Economy be any
different? In 2008 when Barak Obama took over the Presidency; American Economy
was almost tanking under the sub prime crisis. However, strong and dynamic
leadership of Obama saw to it that the decline was resisted and unemployment
arrested to an extent and he returned to Presidency once again in 2012 for the
second term; in spite of huge debt burden and slower economic growth American
Dollar going strong against Global currency. Where as in spite of all the
strong Fundamentals Indian currency is being battered and FDI attractiveness of
India looks
bleak. This could be due to the Global Public Perception about Current Indian
Leadership which is Weak and Indecisive. If we replace our Prime Minister with
the Finance Minister our Economic recovery could be smart and swift in a scale
of 2/10, with Rahul Gandhi it could be 4/10, with Sonia Gandhi 6/10 and with
Naveen Patnaik and Narendra Modi it could peak at 8/10. If we draw a Global
Investors Perceptions Survey this hypothesis could be proved beyond any doubt.
Leadership is important for investor’s confidence as economy is also a game of
perception.
