Former cricketer Virender Sehwag took to X (formerly Twitter) today, September 19, to share a story about one of his staff members investing in the stock market. Sehwag said that one of his staff invested INR 80 lakh in stocks of three out of the four PSU banks (Canara Bank, Bank of Baroda and Union Bank) mentioned by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in one of his posts in June. The former cricketer further said that his staff member is an ardent fan of PM Modi; however, he also said that three months after investing, his staff member's share prices were down by more than 20 per cent. "Surprising thing is after this tweet, these 3 stocks never saw those rates again since even as the Nifty is 10% up from those levels," Sehwag claimed in his post which he later deleted. The former cricketer also sought expert advice for his staff member, who is said to be in panic as he invested a major portion of his net worth. 'Virender Sehwag Who?'
