This could be the third-largest anchor book after One 97 Communications and Life Insurance Corporation (LIC). One 97 Communications and LIC had raised Rs 8,235 crore and Rs 5,627 crore in the anchor round, respectively. In a notification to the exchanges on Wednesday, VIL said it has allotted 490.9 crore shares to 74 funds at Rs 11 apiece, which is also the upper end of the price band. This translated into a transaction size to Rs 5,400 crore. Of the total allocation to <keyword id="21330641" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="anchor-investors" source="keywords">anchor investors</keyword>, 79.52 crore stocks, or 16.2 per cent of the total, were allocated to five domestic mutual fund through a total of 11 schemes. Those who were allotted shares include GQG Partners Emerging Markets Equity Fund, Fidelity, UBS Fund Management, Abu Dhabi Investment Authority, Australian Super, Troo Capital, Morgan Stanley, Citigroup Global Markets Mauritius, and Jupiter Fund Management. Additionally, domestic investors, including Motilal Oswal Mutual Fund, HDFC Mutual Fund, SBI General Insurance and Quant Mutual Fund, were allocated shares in the anchor round. The Rs 18,000-crore FPO of Vodafone Idea will open for public subscription on April 18 and conclude on April 22, marking the biggest FPO in the country. The price band has been set at Rs 10-11 per share. Prior to this, the largest FPO in the Indian market was a Rs 15,000 crore share-sale by YES Bank in 2020. The fundraise would give the ailing telco the firepower to improve its positioning in the Indian telecom market, where it currently trails larger rivals such as Reliance Jio and Bharti Airtel, by a wide margin. The funds will also help VIL shore up finances for the much-delayed <keyword id="20366727" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="5G-rollout" source="keywords">5G rollout</keyword> and strengthening 4G services, and payment of vendor dues. On April 6, the VIL Board approved raising Rs 2,075 crore from promoter Aditya Birla Group and increasing its authorised share capital to Rs 1 lakh crore. Earlier this year, Vodafone Idea had outlined plans to raise Rs 45,000 crore through a mix of equity and debt as it looked to match services offered by rivals Reliance Jio and Bharti Airtel and arrest an alarming and prolonged subscriber churn. VIL has also been fighting a desperate battle for survival, saddled with debt of Rs 2.1 lakh crore and quarterly losses. According to Trai data, Vodafone Idea continued to bleed on the subscriber front. VIL lost 15.2 lakh wireless subscribers, plunging its mobile subscriber base to 22.15 crore in January, in sharp contrast to subscriber gains by Jio and Airtel.

And the Isreal-Hamas war has added to geopolitical worries that have contributed to the rollercoaster ride Treasurys are on."But my primary concern lies elsewhere: the most influential segment of the world's financial markets is losing its longer-term strategic anchors and is at risk of losing its short-term stabilizer ones as well," El-Erian said, raising doubt about who will absorb the additional supply of US debt. He noted that the Fed is no longer purchasing Treasurys and is instead shrinking its balance sheet, foreign buyers have turned more hesitant, and US institutional investors already have big paper losses on bond holdings, while banks may have to sell bonds to replenish declining deposits.Short-term investors have held back even more extreme day-to-day volatility, El-Erian said, as peaking yields have been attracting some level of buyers, especially <a href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/bonds/treasury-buyers-households-equities-supply-demand-yields-bond-us-debt-2023-10">households investors</a>. But the continued resilience of the bond market is not something investors should take for granted, he warned."No matter how you look at it, the world's most crucial benchmark market is on an unpredictable journey with an uncertain destination," he said.

"We wish him well and will be cheering him on in his future endeavors."The news comes after a bombshell report from <a href="https://variety.com/2023/tv/news/cnn-don-lemon-misogyny-history-nikki-haley-1235574286/amp/">Variety</a> alleged that Lemon had a long history of misogynistic behavior toward his female coworkers, including mocking texts and mean texts and openly disrespecting female coworkers in meetings. After the story was published, Lemon released a statement saying: "The story, which is riddled with patently false anecdotes and no concrete evidence, is entirely based on unsourced, unsubstantiated, 15-year-old anonymous gossip.

<ul class="summary-list"><li>Charlie Munger was brilliant and blunt, but also funny and a devoted teacher, Becky Quick says.</li><li>Warren Buffett's late business partner took a moral approach to business and life, the anchor said.</li></ul>Charlie Munger was ferociously smart and painfully frank, but he was also funny, generous, and modeled a virtuous approach to business and life, Becky Quick says.Quick, who co-anchors CNBC's "Squawk Box," <a href="https://buffett.cnbc.com/video/2023/12/05/charlie-mungers-final-cnbc-interview.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">recently sat down</a> with Munger for what turned out to be the <a href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/charlie-munger-cnbc-interview-buffett-berkshire-alibaba-trillionaire-wealth-lessons-2023-12#:~:text=%22My%20game%20in%20life%20was,I'm%20so%20cautious.%22">final televised interview</a> of his life. Munger, Warren Buffett's business partner and <a href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/stocks/brk-b-stock">Berkshire Hathaway</a>'s vice chairman for over four decades, <a href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/charlie-munger-dies-warren-buffett-obituary-berkshire-hathaway-stock-market-2023-11">died</a> aged 99 on November 28.The veteran journalist told Markets Insider about her impressions of the legendary investor, what she learned from him over the years, and the legacy he's left behind.Quick first interviewed Munger around 16 years ago. "I was terrified," she said, as she knew Munger had no qualms about openly dismissing a question as stupid. "I didn't want to look like a fool."However, she found Munger to be very kind. She later realized that he was a devoted teacher like Buffett, but he employed a more subtle approach that weaved in stories and fables."You would walk away with a lesson, without him making it seem like you were eating your vegetables," Quick said.The investing icon wasn't just whip smart, he also possessed a great sense of humor."Man, he was funny, really funny —and really quick-witted," Quick said. She pointed to her last interview with him, during which she asked if he had any regrets. Munger jumped from bemoaning the 200-pound tuna he never caught, to joking that he should have nabbed a third wife (his second wife, Nancy, died in 2010.)Munger — a polymath who studied subjects as diverse as physics, law, architecture, and biology — was able to look at virtually any problem and quickly solve it, Quick said. But he also understood how human behavior complicates things.She recalled once privately asking him for help in drafting a legal agreement that couldn't be manipulated in the future. He immediately dismissed that as impossible, and said there was no point in striking a deal with someone she didn't trust.The late investor also played a vital role in Berkshire's success, Quick said. She noted that years before Munger joined the conglomerate as its vice chairman, he advised Buffett as a friend on how to transform the failing textile mill. Munger's vision was the blueprint for the modern Berkshire, which commands a nearly $800 billion market capitalization and <a href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/warren-buffett-berkshire-hathaway-trillion-assets-big-tech-tesla-nvidia-2023-8">owns over $1 trillion of assets</a>."Charlie has put so much of his morality and his thinking and his leadership out there, he's helped build the culture," Quick said about the investor's impact on the inner workings of Berkshire.She hailed Buffett and Munger's partnership, as they were swift to praise but never blamed each other for mistakes."They made each other better people," Quick said. "Berkshire would not exist without the two of them."Quick shared some of the key lessons she took from Munger. They included the advice to "always invert" or view a problem from the opposite perspective, such as starting with a destination and working backward. She also celebrated the fact that he never let his fame and fortune warp who he was; he remained sane and grounded by living in the same home and not buying into his own hype."Everything he did was a beautiful lesson in how to comport yourself," she said.The former newspaper reporter and magazine columnist also touched on Munger's broader role in the business world. She singled out his resistance to getting caught up in the latest market mania, and his willingness to call out fads. Munger also served as a paragon of long-term thinking, conviction, integrity, and skepticism that helped other investors stay on track."Charlie was the boy who would tell the emperor he was wearing no clothes," Quick said. "He didn't bow to power. He spoke the truth, or at least the truth as he saw it."

"When you have a big lead, you don't do it," <a href="https://news.yahoo.com/big-lead-don-t-trump-152017014.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Trump told Fox News host Maria Bartiromo</a> last week. Fox News personalities like Steve Doocy, Brian Kilmeade, John Roberts, and Piers Morgan are eager to see Trump show up, the Post reported. "It would be great to see President Trump and Ron DeSantis and Chris Christie just duke it out," Doocy said on Monday, per the Post. "That's why they call it a debate. Show up, debate, and shine. This is his big chance.""If he thinks he's going to get the nomination, the best thing to do is to go into training," Kilmeade added, per the Post. "So, I would take the reps as much as possible."A source familiar with the inner workings at Fox News told Insider that company management has not encouraged any on-air personnel to make the case for Trump to attend the debate, adding that the comments on air were organic. A Trump advisor told the Post that the former president is "highly unlikely to participate" as of now. Following the <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/fox-news-settles-dominion-defamation-lawsuit-trial-2023-4" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dominion defamation lawsuit</a> that Fox settled for $787.5 million, the company reportedly placed a "<a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/fox-news-implemented-soft-ban-donald-trump-report-2023-3" target="_blank" rel="noopener">soft ban" on putting Trump</a> on air. The former president has also complained that the outlet is <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/donald-trump-fox-news-horrible-photos-color-distortion-2023-6">trying to make him look bad</a>. GOP pollster Frank Luntz told the Post that Trump brings in 2 to 4 million viewers typically, so "of course Fox wants him to participate."When the network hosted a GOP debate in August 2015 (wherein Trump famously sparred with Megyn Kelly), the network drew in 24 million views, the Post reported. When Trump pulled out of another Fox debate months later, the network logged about half as many views.

<ul class="summary-list"><li>Workers are reportedly offering to buy San Francisco's Anchor Brewing Co. and manage it themselves.</li><li>Anchor, owned by Japanese beer giant Sapporo, announced this month that it would shutter.</li></ul>Employees at the storied San Francisco beer brand Anchor Brewing Co. have devised a plan to save their brewery: They want to buy and manage it themselves.In a letter on Wednesday, about 40 workers made an offer to the current owners Sapporo USA, <a href="https://vinepair.com/booze-news/anchor-employees-brewery-takeover-bid/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reporter Dave Infante wrote in Vinepair.</a> Sapporo <a href="https://www.sfgate.com/food/article/San-Francisco-s-Anchor-Brewing-acquired-by-11729608.php" target="_blank" rel="noopener">acquired the brand in 2017</a> for <a href="https://www.brewbound.com/news/sapporo-holdings-purchase-anchor-brewing-85-million/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a reported $85 million.</a> But earlier this month, executives said it would shutter the brewery and liquidate its assets."We are not asking for a handout or charity," Pedro de Sá, a representative for the Anchor union, wrote in the letter, per Vinepair. "All we want is a fair shot at being able to continue to do our jobs, make the beer we love, and keep this historic institution open.The letter asks Sapporo USA president Mike Minami to indicate potential interest in pursuing a deal with the workers by the end of the day on Friday. Anchor and Sapporo did not immediately respond to requests for comment on the letter or the closing from Insider. Anchor has a devoted following within San Francisco. <a href="https://www.anchorbrewing.com/about-us/the-anchor-story/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Founded in 1871</a> by a German immigrant to the city, the company developed its own style of lager, called "steam beer" or <a href="https://www.craftbeer.com/styles/california-common" target="_blank" rel="noopener">"California common."</a> When news of Anchor's closure broke earlier this month, patrons lined up outside its tap room to get one last glass, <a href="https://www.sfgate.com/food/article/anchor-brewing-final-beers-flying-off-shelves-sf-18199789.php" target="_blank" rel="noopener">SFGate reported.</a>The Anchor workers aren't the only ones interested in buying and preserving the brand.Multiple Bay Area entrepreneurs have expressed interest in buying the brand, <a href="https://www.sfchronicle.com/food/wine/article/save-anchor-steam-18199818.php" target="_blank" rel="noopener">according to the San Francisco Chronicle.</a> One of them, Mike Walsh, started a website and posted on LinkedIn to solicit potential investors.Anchor's story also lines up with a common one in the food and beverage world: An upstart or regional brand gets acquired by a much larger conglomerate, only to be sold or shut down by the larger company several years later. The phenomenon was evident with brands including <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/zico-founder-is-buying-the-brand-back-from-coca-cola-2021-1">Zico coconut water</a> and <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/coca-cola-is-discontinuing-honest-tea-end-of-year-2022-5">Honest Tea,</a> which <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/inside-coca-cola-fumbled-efforts-grow-small-beverage-brands-2021-5">Coca-Cola acquired</a> over the last two decades before pulling the plug, Insider reported in 2021. Sapporo touted Anchor's "strong brand power" and potential for growth <a href="https://www.sapporoholdings.jp/en/news/items/17080301.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">in a statement</a> explaining its acquisition of the brewery in 2017. Today, Anchor is "losing millions of dollars a year," with sales and sales volumes down over 2016, the brewery's last year as an independent business, Sam Singer, a spokesperson for Anchor and Sapporo, <a href="https://www.sfchronicle.com/food/wine/article/save-anchor-steam-18199818.php">told the Chronicle.</a>
