Tech/Engineering - Computers (general) / storage blog | | English term or phrase: boiling like a hot pickled chili | | I recently visited India and personally got to experience a beautiful country transforming itself. The climate, cuisine and currency (economy) are experienced in various flavors of hot. For cuisine my favorite is chicken tandoori, a relatively mild dish. The Bombay SENSEX is boiling like a hot pickled chili. The BSE has surpassed 19000 and yes it has pulled back some. In the year 2004 the index was at the 5000 range! If you take a look at the 30 companies that form the index you will notice that IT, Telecom and Transportation are well represented... |

Asker: Não fica estranho dizer que o índice Bombay SENSEX está picante como uma pimenta-malagueta? Acho que faz mais sentido misturar sua sugestão com a da Illa: está pegando fogo como pimenta-malagueta. O que acha?
