I research companies, run a live portfolio, and trade derivatives.
I'm Navansh Kumar Talwar, a Financial & Business Economics student at York University in Vaughan, Canada. Everything here is real work with real numbers: valuation research on AMD and Twilio, a portfolio measured against the S&P 500, and a derivatives trading record logged trade by trade.
01 / About me
Hi, I'm Navansh.
My interest in markets is not a recent addition to my résumé. It has been developing for the past four to five years through curiosity, independent research, following market cycles, and learning how one economic decision can ripple through an entire portfolio.
What started as a question, “Why did the market move today?” It became a deeper interest in how capital, expectations, and risk shape financial decisions.
I became interested not only in whether an investment goes up or down, but in what the market is pricing in. I want to understand how inflation changes purchasing power and corporate margins, how interest rates affect borrowing costs and valuation, and why the same information can create opportunity in one asset while increasing risk in another.
A return is not meaningful without the risk taken, the time required, the benchmark, and the alternatives available. I try to separate a good outcome from a good decision and ask what could prove my view wrong before focusing on what could make it right.
Chip Street Capital brings that thinking together through financial analysis, company research, portfolio decisions, and honest reviews of what I learned.
