Seven Short Steps to Long Term Investing Success

Leave a comment
Dear Investors,
I got a question on a discussion forum, about Long Term Investing. I found the line of thought very interesting, and my reply is in the form of the Seven Steps to Long Term Investing Success !!
So here goes.  (thanks Srini and Musa).
..

First the question

Dear All,
Need some advise.
I intend to invest some X amount in some select stocks with a holding period of about 8-9 years.
Is it good to leave it untouched till the end of holding period? Or is it advisable to set some yearly target say 20% or so and exit once the target is achieved in a year and wait for some lows to happen to reenter the stock for a target n exit once again and continue this cycle till the end of Holding year.
I don’t know how the above approach of mine sounds, but need you to give me some thoughts on how to go about it.
Regards.
..
Here’s my Answer:
..

the Seven short Steps to Long Term Investing Success

Dear Investor,
This is a pretty good question.
The investing process I feel you should follow is:
  1. Stock Selection: Obviously, choose your Select Stocks well. Since the holding period is 8-9 years, you need to look closely at the fundamentals. Each stock needs to have an investment thesis (eg. capacity expansion of 200%, or a new product launch that can grow profits 150%) and a price target for a specified period of time like say 2-3 years. These need to be high conviction ideas. Plus good Portfolio thinking is that there should not be an overexposure to any one sector, to reduce overall sector risk.
  2. Investment: Buy the Selected Shares. One way to simplify things is to buy shares of roughly equal monetary value.
  3. Monitor the Stocks: Next these shares need to be monitored. Is the investment thesis being played out in reality? Any external events affecting it? A six monthly review for these Select Stocks may be sufficient.
  4. Minimize Transactions: I would disagree about the 20% annual targets and exit /entry cycle. Good well chosen shares may appreciate even 100% in a good year, yet may still be cheap and worth buying, even at this level, if the 2-3 year outlook still looks good. Every delivery based entry and exit can cost you upto 0.6% of your asset, so transactions should be minimized for long term investments.
  5. Use Dips to Buy: Also the reverse may also happen. The investment thesis may be playing out well, but the share price may have fallen 20%. You need to be patient here, and can even buy more of this stock if you have funds.
  6. Exit Non-Performers: My approach would be to (on Review) sell those Stocks that are not performing on fundamentals as per the investment thesis (this may or may not be reflected in the price performance) and perhaps buy more of those that are performing. There is no shame in admitting mistakes. Even investment greats like Anthony Bolton (I’m reading a great book by him called Investing Against the Tide) talk about a success/ hit rate of 55-60%. The secret is to identify mistakes and reduce losses by exiting fast.
  7. Time in Market: Over the 8-9 years period a good internal price target to have is to get a 20% annualized return for your Select Stocks. But notice that big returns come in a few years and things may be flat to negative for the others. So I prefer “Time in Market” with “Good Stocks” where you will get the returns over time.
Thats it !! I guess many years of investing have helped me give a short and sweet answer.
Sorry for generating Option 3 compared to 1 or 2 asked by you, but this is my recommended approach.
Here’s to your investing success.
(needless to say, revert to me if you need help with choosing stocks and monitoring  Emoji )

Investment Outlook and Large Cap Portfolio Note

Leave a comment

Positive Outlook and The Portfolio Outperforms by 6.2%

Report dated: 20th May 2015

JainMatrix Investments presents its Investment Outlook, and the May 2015 update of its Retirement LC Model Portfolio.

Investment Outlook Note

  • It’s now one year since the new government was elected in at the center. We are fairly pleased with this year in the economy. Without many flashy and headline oriented statements, the government is building stability and solidity in the governance. The achievements include successful auctions in Telecom and Coal mines, improvements in the Power and Coal sectors, efficiency in Parliament and improved foreign policy and exchanges. The LPG cylinder subsidy scheme is a successful pilot for other subsidy programs. Petrol and Diesel seem to be subsidy free.
  • Much more needs to be done, of course. But well begun is half done. Note that stock market investors till some years ago gained most from sectors free of government interference and control. Going forward, my confidence is growing that more sectors will be added that are free. The economy will reap benefits from improvements in ease of doing business, economies of scale and the Make in India – Export to the World initiative.
  • The INR/USD rate is now 63.73, and we now peg this to be in the range of 62-66.
  • The recent spate of volatility in the Indian stock markets is a normal short term correction after a strong rise over the last 20 months.
  • The Indian market continues to be a magnet for global investment funds, as the Indian economy has the best outlook of the BRICS countries. It is also among the few large economies growing fast.
  • Further we have seen over the last one year that the Indian investor too has come back to the markets. This is partly because other asset classes like Real Estate and Gold are not as attractive.

In terms of outlook we expect the next few triggers to be:

  • Reductions in interest rates by RBI.
  • Improvements in the Gold asset class with the Gold monetization scheme, which may reduce imports and reduce illiquidity and improve returns from this asset.
  • Infrastructure improvements including fast tracking of projects and better PPP structures.

In terms of Risks we would identify

  1. Excessive volatility in INR-USD exchange rates or crude prices
  2. Opacity and slow resolution of foreign ownership and investment taxation issues (Vodaphone, Nokia, MAT, etc.)
  3. Poor or uneven rainfall in coming season

JainMatrix Retirement Large Cap Model Portfolio Theme

  • We renamed the portfolio as the JainMatrix Retirement Large Cap Model Portfolio.
  • The objective of the Retirement LCMP is to outperform the Sensex and Nifty by 5-10%. We have achieved this consistently over the last 29 months.
  • The seven stocks in the portfolio are from seven different sectors, but the overall focus is on Banking, Consumption, Exports and Infrastructure.

Portfolio Performance

  • The portfolio has only 7 BUY shares.
  • The RLCMP continues to perform well. On average the 7 Buy recommendation shares were up by absolute 55.5% and annualized 24.6%.
  • The Sensex and Nifty were up by 18.3% and 18.0% annualized in the same period.
  • The JainMatrix active Retirement LC Model Portfolio thus outperformed by 6.2%.
  • Investors need to continue to invest in these shares in a SIP mode for safe long term returns.

VRL Logistics IPO – Winner Takes All

Leave a comment
  • Date 14th April 2015
  • IPO Price range: Rs. 195-205
  • IPO Period: 15-17th Apr 2015
  • Mid Cap – Rs 1900 cr Mkt Cap
  • Industry – Transportation, Goods and Passengers
  • Advice: BUY, with a 2 year holding period

Summary:

  • The transportation sector is recognized as a leading indicator of the economic cycle of the country. We expect this sector to do well over the next few years.
  • VRL Logistics is one of the larger organized players of this sector. The firm represents several high potential businesses, built over many years by the first and now second generation entrepreneurs.
  • We feel that in this sector the business volumes are critical and the top 2-3 players will dominate, a ‘Winner Tales All’ situation. VRL is well placed to be the winner over the next few years.
  • Management quality appears good. Like the real estate sector, doing business in transportation too involves many legal issues and disputes, the resolution of which may take many years due to our glacial judicial process. We downplay the large number of pending cases involving VRL.
  • VRL appears to be business wise aggressive while financially sound, using PE funding for new ventures, and ensuring positive FCF for 5 of the last 6 years. This is a good combination.
  • The VRL Logistics IPO is rated medium risk, but a BUY, with a 2 year holding period.

IPO highlights

  • IPO is open from 15-17th Apr 2015 with Issue Price band: Rs.195-205 per share
  • Shares offered to public: 2.27 crores of Face Value: Rs.10 per share
  • Shares offered as portion of equity post issue: 25%. Post IPO, promoters stake would reduce to 70%, another 25% would be sold in IPO to numerous parties and the rest 5% held by private investors.
  • The amount proposed to be raised: Rs.467 crores (at upper end). The IPO proceed will be used for:
    1. Rs 350 crore – exit by New Silk Route, PE firm and promoters Dr. Vijay and Anand Sankeshwar.
    2. Rs 67 crore on acquisition of new fleet.
    3. Rs 28 crore for repayment of debts and
    4. The rest of about Rs 22 cr. would be spent for corporate purposes.
  • These objects appear to be reasonable – for investor exit and to grow the core business of VRL.

Inox Wind IPO – Positive, and for the Environment

Leave a comment

Dear Investor,

Here is a short post facto report on the Inox Wind IPO.

  • The IPO received excellent response with an 18 times over-subscription.
  • Retail was only 2 times over while institutional, HNI and corporates’ portions were subscribed over 35 times.
  • Naturally the pent up demand showed up on listing.
  • Listing on April 9th, yesterday, was enthusiastic and the share closed the day with a 35% gain at Rs 438.
  • Today, at the time of going into the cloud, the share is at 442, a solid 43% gain for Retail investors.
  • We will reiterate our advice as below, its a medium risk BUY, and hold for 2 years.

Happily for us at JainMatrix, another win and a correct analysis, (so far).

Happy investing,

Punit Jain

———————————————————————————————–

  • Date 18th March 2015
  • Price range: Rs. 315-325
  • IPO Period:  18-20th Mar 2015
  • Mid Cap – Rs 7200 cr Mkt Cap
  • Industry – Wind Power (Equipment and Projects)
  • Advice: medium risk BUY, and hold for 2 years

Summary:

  • INOX is certainly in the right sector of Wind power generation, where we should see good double digit growth for a decade. It also is an environmentally positive segment. The government is doing a lot to promote / subsidize it.
  • The firm itself has scaled up well so far, and the promotor group is good. There is also a scarcity of good quality listed firms in this sector.
  • The challenge for this firm is to manage costs, cash flows and technology stability. It has to perhaps slow down growth in the next few years, in order to be a more financially feasible concern.
  • The INOX Wind IPO is rated a BUY, with medium risk, and investors can purchase for a 2 year holding period.

Financials

 Inox Wind – 5 year financials 

IPO highlights

  • IPO is open from 18-20th Mar 2015 with Issue Price band: Rs.315-325 per share
  • There is a discount of Rs 15 for retail and employee categories
  • Shares offered to public: 3.26 crores of Face Value: Rs.10 per share
  • Shares offered as portion of equity post issue: 13.9%
  • Amount proposed to be raised: Rs.1025 crores (at upper end). The IPO proceed will be used for:
    • 300 crore is an exit by Inox Wind promoter Gujarat Fluorochemicals
    • 300 crore will be used to fund long term working capital requirements
    • 150 crore towards expansion of manufacturing facilities in Himachal Pradesh and Gujarat
    • 150 crore for project site development, mostly by subsidiary IWISL
    • The rest of about 100 crore will be for General Corporate Purposes
  • These objects appear to be reasonable and will grow the core business of wind power generation.
