At 6:51 pm local time, Carlos Alcaraz turned hype into reality. Carlitos, as he is fondly called, proved that, unlike the next-generation players of the past, he was the real deal. (Sure, he triumphed at the US Open last year, but this win was at the hallowed lawns of Wimbledon, the Big W). By vanquishing the hyper-elastic, modern metronomic great Novak Djokovic in the Wimbledon final, Spain's Alcaraz has brought new tidings to the tennis landscape.

How shallow and incomplete would an answer be if one replied, "He is a superstar", to a "Who is Rajinikanth?" question? That would do such a disservice to his acting prowess, early-day struggles, and subsequent meteoric rise. Similarly, just reading the headline of a mutual fund delivering 20 per cent-plus returns and then mindlessly investing in them would be equally frivolous. That's because a mutual fund's success, like Rajinikanth's, isn't built in a day.

The title is catchy - but that was the purpose. And though exceptions catch our eye, this headline isn't really an attention-grabber. I was at a meeting with a client who shied away from equity since it is a risky asset. He wanted to plan for his retirement and was in his early 40s.
