Wealth manager Ankit Yadav's Jio IPO coverage draws 1 million Instagram views, 5 million reach on X

New Delhi: Wealth manager Ankit Yadav has emerged as the country's number one digital financial voice during the Jio Platforms IPO. He is said to have gone ahead of big financial news channels and social media platforms in reach related to the IPO.

His Jio IPO coverage got more than 1 million views on Instagram, while on X (formerly Twitter) it recorded more than 5 million reach in just a week. The figures put Yadav at the centre of discussion in financial media. Such high digital viewership is often also called TRP.

While business TV networks and financial portals were competing for investors' attention, Yadav's independent financial commentary became a major draw online. He kept explaining IPO valuation, the shareholders' quota, listing strategy and the calculation of intrinsic value, in which investors showed considerable interest.

Beyond IPOs, his projections on gold, silver, railway stocks and public sector companies have also strengthened his standing among the most-followed market watchers.

In 2022, when interest rates were rising worldwide and there was inflation and economic uncertainty, Yadav had predicted that gold prices could double in the next two years. His analysis stressed global liquidity, currency movements, monetary conditions and the importance of gold as a store of value.

In the same period he had also forecast a big rally in silver. According to him, growing industrial demand in electronics, advanced manufacturing, renewable energy and artificial intelligence technologies was to be a major reason for further gains. He is said to have invested heavily in silver himself, and during the rally the value of his personal investment rose roughly four to eight times.

Yadav's stance changed in late 2025. Giving up his earlier bullish view, he took a cautious position on precious metals. He said gold and silver would not see any major rally for the next three to five years. By his estimate, both metals may hold their basic value, but capital appreciation could remain limited. He had also pointed to the risk for investors buying gold and silver at very high prices.

His forecast came back into discussion after reports of weakness in precious metals in 2026. According to the market figures cited in the context of his analysis, gold fell about 5% in a year and silver saw a correction of more than 30%.

Ankit Yadav is an Indian wealth manager, economist and investment analyst. He is founder and director of Market Maestroo Private Limited, a SEBI-registered research analyst entity. He has more than 15 years of experience in financial markets and more than five million followers on social media. His views reach India, Dubai, the US and other international markets.

Big rallies followed his earlier bullish view on railway stocks and select PSU companies, and several railway-linked shares rose four to five times. His style of simplifying complex financial subjects through Instagram Reels, YouTube and X has connected him with lakhs of investors.
