1. What is Spread in Banking parlance?
The difference between the interest rate a bank charges a borrower and the interest rate a bank pays a depositor.

2. Who is the chairman of economic advisory council to PM Manmohan?
C. Rangarajan

3. Today is which day?
The prophet Muhammad escapes death by completing the Hegira, or flight, to Medina from Mecca on this day. Mecca is the holy center of Islam and the birthplace of Muhammad, the
religion's great prophet and founder. In 610, in a cave in Mount Hira, north of Mecca, Muhammad had a vision in which God commanded him to become the prophet of the true religion. He gained a significant following in Mecca, provoking the jealous city authorities to plot his death. Muhammad escaped and on September 24, 622, arrived at Medina. There, Muhammad founded Islam as a religion and organized community, and in 630 he returned to Mecca as a conqueror. The Hegira would later mark the beginning (year 1) of the Muslim calendar.

4. Who proposed that 'The complexity of a processor chip is bound to double every 12 to 18 months'? what is he doing now ?
Gordon E moore,Doing some research

5. Name the cofounders of Intel ?
Gordon E moore and Robert Noyce

6. What is the impact of Fed interest cut on Indian Economy?
The impact of the Fed rate cut could mean a new wind for the real sector companies, including those in steel, real estate and the commodity space. The steel and real estate companies are especially banking on a sharp rise in external commercial borrowing by the infrastructure companies as the rate difference between India and abroad has sharpened substantially. Analysts and company bosses say the possible decline in the value of the dollar would soften the interest rates, which is good news.

7. Who is going to Succeed Mr. Abe ?
Fukuda
