Harsh Pati Singhania, managing director, JK Paper, doesn&rsquo;t look like a man in a hurry. But if one is operating in an industry like paper, one needs to keep that margin for the unexpected up one&rsquo;s sleeve.

Why is it so? Well, it is primarily a de-specced variant, but one with still enough features to take on the higher-end Toyota Innova. Oh yes, in everything that the Aria does, remember the &lsquo;I&rsquo; word.

On President Barack Obama&rsquo;s 50th birthday, the markets handed him a stunning sting. A 500-point decline on the Dow, signalling there will be no celebrations for the President or indeed America. It&rsquo;s now clear that the party is a long way from starting for the world&rsquo;s biggest economy. Euro-zone is in a funk alongside. And until America fixes job creation and Europe its debt, which looks increasingly difficult, brace for a plunge.
