How share prices fall after the bonus issue.

Bonus Issues, a Near-Term Top...

Bonus: The word itself sounds fancy. Be it at a shopping mall or online portals. We humans love to get bonuses or free stuffs. Stock markets are no exception. Retails investors get fascinated by the word 'Bonus'. The moment they hear a bonus announcement of a company, they rush to buy its shares. You have often seen a share price roaring just because a bonus issue has been announced.
But is the greed for these kind of freebies good for retail investors?

ONGC Reaction to Bonus Issue

Just have a look at the chart of Oil and Natural Gas Corporation. It announced a bonus issue on 24 October 2016 when it was trading at 185. Post the announcement it rallied and hit a high of Rs 208 in just one and half months, up more than 12%. The sentiment drove the price up.
But as soon as it came out with a bonus issue on 15 December 2016, the downfall started. It's been more than three-months now and the stock is trading 10% below its ex-bonus price.
A company issuing a bonus share is said to be cash rich. Then why do you think the price fell after the bonus issue?
The reason can be simple. Bonus shares are additional shares that are flooded into the market by a company. This increases the supply of shares and as a result the prices fall.
Also certain speculators invest in them for bonus gains. Once the bonus story is over, these speculators start dumping their shares and as a result the prices tumble.
Whatever the reason may be, the price fell after the bonus was issued.
Bonus issue might not be the only reason driving the stock prices down. There are of course various other factors affecting a stock price at a time. But this kind of price decline was observed not only in the case of ONGC.

If MRF Splits Will You Buy?

If MRF Splits Will You Buy?

Many retail investors are waiting for the day MRF announces a stock split. But should you jump on to buy when it does? Sure you can. But retail investors must understand that just because the stock looks affordable after the split, it doesn't mean it is a good buy.
There is a huge difference between value and price.
MRF at Rs 500 after the split can be expensive, and MRF at Rs 90,000 can still be cheap. Basing your decision on price alone is a fool's play.
Companies often go for a split intending to sub-dividing the stock price to make it 'appear' cheaper. The practice is more common in bull markets. They usually do it to appease retail investors. It helps them create liquidity and marketability for their stocks.
But a stock split is a trap for retail investors, especially short-term investors.
Just have a look at the chart of Grasim Industries. The company split its share in a ratio of 10:2 on 6 October 2016. And the stock was 11% down one month after it split.

Grasim Industries Reaction to Stock Split

It was also the case for Asian Paints in July 2013 when it split in a ratio of 10:1. The stock fell 23% one month later. That is a huge underperformance.
These are well-reputed blue-chip companies. But still the stocks sold off after the split.
Why do you think this happens?
The reason is supply. The number of outstanding shares in the market increases after the stock split. This increased supply results in a price dip.
But remember, the split might not be the only reason for price decline. A stock is affected by various factors. And investors must consider them all before investing.
In an earlier market note, we showed you how share prices fall after the bonus issue. We backed it by data showing 63% of stocks under performing post bonus issue. We have performed a similar exercise for stocks that have split since the year 2000. And the results were equally amazing. More on this next time.

What are the top five recommended stocks which I should buy in a surging market.

What are the top five recommended stocks which I should buy in a surging market like this, with a holding span of at least 2-3 years from this year 2017?

Some people Says “Don’t invest, market at life time high” but what if today’s high is tomorrow’s low, so don’t go by lifetime high, invest in growing stocks to get better return in 2–3 years. Growing stocks doesn’t see lifetime high they grow by their own.

1. RBL Bank (Bank)
2. Jubilant Life Science (Pharma)
3. DHFL (Housing Finance)
4. Force Motors (Auto)
5. Ujjivan Finance (Micro Finance)

Don’t hurry in putting all money in one go, Invest at regular time period and if there is some major event then invest in small qty so that you can get more shares in case or market correction. Good to focus on Banking and Finance sector

Is it the Good time to buy the shares of SBI?

“Banks will rally”. That’s my wording towards people asking me what will be next to rally in market.

Yeah! One can buy SBI at current market price i.e. 289. If you are buying for short term gain then hold till 320 level in next 2–4 months. It’s major resistance around 320–325 level. Will tell you this by Practical.

• Below is the weekly chart of SBI of last 15 years. I will put y techniccal knowledge into it

• That’s the chart after applying technical, you can see the trend lines and the first two Rectangle box is there for giving you insight that whenever it touches the trend line, it falls after touching.

• So After zooming into the last rectangle, i got that it will go upto 320 level in next 2–4 months. ( probably in the month of June it will touch this level.

So SBI may reach 320-340 level easily in next 2–4 months.

Shall I buy shares of the stock which are recommended on SMS?

Most of us get SMS from unknown sources giving recommendations on next multi bagger stocks.

Lets take a case study to answer the basic question that comes in our mind.Shall I buy shares of the stock which are recommended on SMS?

Soem time back I got an sms giving buying call for Symbiox Investment Trading Company

Shall I buy shares of the Symbiox Investment Trading Company?

If you want to lose 20–35% of invested amount, then you can buy that share.

That’s a Manipulated share, Don’t rely on messages you got on your mobile saying “ Buy Symbiox Investment, News of merging, or giving bonus” That’s all operator game of trapping small investor at higher price and then they put lower circuit on it by placing sell order at day’s lower limit, so it continuous for weeks, In this whole process share price fall by 20–40% in 2–3 weeks and operator again buy shares at lower price from weak hands.

Will take example of operator driven share.

A= Price remains same for period of almost 7–9 months, That’s never happen, It’s a market where price changes every second but here it didn’t

B = Volume rises suddenly, Because they start circulating messages of buying the share and as a result retail investor trap in the Operators game.

after that share price drops from 22 to 14 almost 37% vanished from your investment

C = Again Circulating of messages starts and some more retail investors trapped in this, after that again price drops from 16 to 11 almost 32%,

Now that’s your decision if you want to lose your money then you can take position in that otherwise there is good saying in hindi “ समझदार को इशारा काफी है”

Here’s list of all operator stocks: Necc, Appu marekting, Vardhman Poly, Arnav Corporation, kushal Tradelink, willamogor, Acasia, Supreme Tex mart, Anchal Investment, Quest financial, Ln Industries, Sanguine Media, Panafic, Symbiox, Etil, Siddarth business, sawaca finance, Safal securities (Don’t buy any of these stocks you will lose your hard earned money)

IFB Industries: a good short term holding stock

IFB Industries: IFB Industries Limited is engaged in engineering and manufacturing of diverse parts and accessories for motor vehicles. The Company is also engaged in the business of manufacturing and trading of home appliances, and manufacturing of fine blanking components. Its segments include Engineering and Home Appliances.

If you see at the chart it’s showing Bolinger Bands ( technical Indicator) Expanding that’s means it will continue to run towards north side, That’s a Weekly chart so don’t confuse it with day chart.

CMP is 640 Buy between 630–645 Level, We can see level of 780–840 level in next 4–6 months

Still If you are not convinced I have another Technical Indicator called Parabolic SAR that’s for confirming that the stock trend will remain the same or it will reverse. Here SAR means Stop and Reverse, As in Below chart you see that there are dots in above or in below candles that’s for understanding the trend of a Share price, If Dots are below the candle sticks that’s means stock trend is up and If dots are above the candle sticks that means it show downtrend in particular share price. One more important thing here we have to see is the distance between dots, If distance is same that’s means stock is consolidation and if there is some variance in that, it means stock is picking up speed ( dots below candle stick denotes uptrend) and can go upward direction in near future, like it happening in IFB chart. ( It’s a Weekly chart).

I think that’s enough for this stock, Invest safe and earn money.

As questioner said “NO Recommendation” I’m am not Charging anything from anyone, Just helping people to invest in safe asset because as a retail investor i had seen how brokers trap new investors just for gaining brokerage they put investors hard money in risky asset.

Why Bonus share reduce price of share when it does not affect the face value of stock.

If bonus shares are funded from reserve funds and the face value of the share remains unaffected, why does it reduce the price of the share?

Companies issue bonus shares to encourage retail participation and increase their equity base. 

When price per share of a company is high, it becomes difficult for new investors to buy shares of that particular company. Increase in the number of shares reduces the price per share.

 But the overall capital remains the same even if bonus shares are declared.

That’s rule of market reduce the price as per ratio of bonus, That’s apply in whole world.

However, companies in general like to use bonus issues as a statement of their strong fundamentals going forward. It reflects their capability of servicing their increased capital. 

Companies also use bonus shares to improve participation and liquidity in their company.

While the issue of bonus shares increases the total number of shares issued and owned, it does not change the value of the company.

 Although the total number of issued shares increases, the ratio of number of shares held by each shareholder remains constant.

Simple Trading Rules

10 Trading Rules :

1. Never trade so big that you end up watching every price tick even though you are not a day trader.

2. Don’t trade so big you dramatically increase your pulse rate or get the sweats.

3. Each trade should only be one of your next one hundred. Never risk more than 1% of your trading account on one trade based on your stop loss.

4. Don’t spend time obsessing over market hindsight. All you can focus on is following your plan in real-time.

5. Forget about your last trade and focus on your next trade.

6. Losses should be lessons that you paid to learn. Look at drawdowns in capital as tuition and not failure.

7. If you followed your trading plan, your loss is just part of the process to get to profitability. Think long term.

8. Position sizes can’t be so large that they compromise your emotions and distract you from your trading plan.

9. Don’t revenge trade to attempt to recover your losses. Stick to your trading plan no matter what.

10. Your signals have to be based on price action and not greed, fear, or your ego.

Are IDFC Bank shares good to buy now at 60 for the long-term?

The de-merged arm of IDFC, IDFC Bank is a listed private sector bank among the 19 private banks with the promoter IDFC holding 53%, with a market cap of Rs. 20,000 cr and currently traded at a price of Rs. 59.85. The stock listed on 06th Nov 2015 at a price of Rs. 72 and fell 5% intraday on the day of listing itself.

After that it has stabilized itself, though the traded volumes have dropped by 88% since the day of listing as compared to today.

Before I highlight the stock information, It is important to see the performance of other banks in this sector. Over a 1 year period, banking stocks have performed well and stocks like DCB Bank, Lakshmi Vikas Bank, Federal Bank have given a return of 100% and there are other banks which have given atleast 50% returns in the same period.

IDFC Bank has given a 26% return over 1 year, better than large banks like ICICI, Axis etc.

Now, coming to specifics on IDFC Bank, the basic info is as follows. I hope I don’t have to explain P.E., P/BV, F.V. etc.

The 2 year returns on this stock are negative (-15.7%). The stock is currently trading below its 30, 50, 150, 200 day moving averages.

I don’t think you need a CA or a financial analyst to look at the quarterly numbers and balance sheet to decide if they are good or bad.

The net profit is very wayward and to even look for a trend we need to get the Q4 results before any analysis can be done.

If you compare this bank with other bank’s financials, the numbers are not that outstanding where in you can invest and forget about this stock for the next 2 years.

Whatever the case might be, since the bank has not completed even 2 years of listed operations, it is better to wait, analyse the Q4 results, then do a peer comparison and finally make a call to invest or not.

As compared to IDFC Bank, DCB & Federal Bank have better operations and financial parameters are much better.

One can consider IDFC Bank Only if they want to hold it for more than 6–7years and above!! 

There are much better banks like DCB,Federal bank , City Union Bank, RBL bank and other NBFC like Cholamandalam investments, Edelweiss that may give very good multibagger returns in long term.

Asset quality of IDFC bank and NPAlevels seem quite depressing as of now. It will take a long time for their ratings to get upgraded.

IDFC bank has witnessed a sharp rise in gross non-performing assets which went from 3.1% to 7% of gross advances. Gross NPAs were at ₹3,587 crore as on end-December. Net NPA ratio increased from 1% to 2.6%.

NPA ratio is used to measure the asset quality of the bank's loan books. NPA are those assets for which interest is overdue for more than 3 months. Net NPA ratio above 1% is not healthy. If the NPA ratio for the last 10 years stays below 1% then that is a sign of good management.

Keep an eye on IDFC BANK's total provision for non performing assets. Nothing eats away at a bank's profits more than loan loss provisions. A huge spike up is not a good sign.

Which may be the next multibagger stock in NSE?

Author: Amit Jeswani, Founder at Stallion Asset, CFA (USA) & CMT (USA)

I have given a lot of Multibagger Ideas on Qoura Like Ujjivan at 323, DHFL at 300, Edelweiss at 94. Today my pick would be Reliance Capital at CMP of 610. This is not a recommendation, but just for education purpose.

We at Stallion Asset have learned that the valuation of an NBFC depends on 4 main things 1) Management Perception 2) ROE 3) Credit Quality 4) Growth.

Reliance Capital is Anil Ambani’s only good asset and he knows that, lately he had kept an analyst meet and our analyst did participate in it. We all know that Reliance Capital has a Anil Ambani Discount to it, Lets understand how much Anil Ambani Discount is there in the Price.

Reliance Capital can be divided in 5 Main Business’

1. Asset management – Mutual Fund Business 51% Stake

2. Life Insurance – 51% Stake owned rest owned by Nippon

3. General Insurance – 100% Stake Owned Reliance Capital

4. Housing Finance – 100% Stake Owned expect to be demerger

5. Commercial Finance – 100% Stake Owned expect a turnaround here.

6. Other Non Core Asset and Broking – Non Core expected to be Divested

Asset Management Business Valuation- In October 2015, Nippon Increased stake in Asset management business from 35% to 49% valuing the company at 8500 Crores. Reliance Asset Management will do a PAT of 340 E for FY 2017, ROE of 50%, if it were listed it would trade at 30x or valuation of 10,200 atleast. We value Reliance Asset Management business’ 51% Stake at 5100 Crores.

Life Insurance Business Valuation – We Value Life Insurance using embedded value multiple, HDFC Max Life is trading at 4.3x Embedded value, whereas ICICI Prudential Life trades at 3.4x Embedded value. Reliance Life Insurance has a embedded value of 3074, if it were listed it would definitely trade at 3-3.5x. Therefore the fair value of Life Insurance Business would be about 10,000 crores, since RCap has 51% stake in it, we value it at 5100 Crores. This Valuation has been confirmed with Nippon investing 5,327 crores in 2016 for a 49% of Life Insurance business valuing the company at 10,871 crores.

General Insurance Business Valuation – Reliance General Insurance business has grown at 25% for last 5 years and now commands a private sector market share of 8.3%. Its expected to report profits of 70 Crores in 2017 and has equity invested of 1200 Crores. We believe margins can improve considerably here and value it at 3,000 crores.

Housing Finance – The current AUM is ~10000 Cr with a conservative Gross NPA ratio of 0.9%and by FY20E expect it to be ~50000 Cr . The Equity Invested in HFC business is 885 crores.The HFC business has grown 30% over last year and it’s expected to do a profit of 90 crores in FY2017 with an ROE 10%. We value this HFC at 3xbook at 2650 crores. They are into affordable housing with average ticket size of less than 10 lakhs and may command higher valuations.

Reliance Commercial Finance – There has been appointment of Mr Mody as CEO, who was the erstwhile President of the consumer finance business of Bajaj Finance and leverage on his expertise in tapping SME lending segment. The current AUM is 16000 Cr . The Equity Invested in RCF business is 2195 crores. The business has grown 10% over last year and its expected to do a profit of 200 crores in FY2017 with an ROE 9%. We value this RCF at 2xbook at 4400 crores.

Other excess investments are valued at 3,000 crores and will be liquidated soon.

Conclusion – Reliance Capital if owned by someone else would trade at about 920/per share with current financials. NBFC is in a bull market, and at the end of the bull market the PIGS run faster than the Horse. Investors with high risk appetite can have a serious look at reliance capital on dips. Worse case investors lose 20%, best case you get a 1 bagger.

Disclosure – Amit Jeswani and Family have no positions

This is not a recommendation and just for Education Purpose.
