11 INTRODUCTION

Investing like marriage isnt something that should be entered into lightly You wouldnt

get married on a first date would you Ok maybe some of us would but thats not really

very Foolish Before we marry er I mean invest in a company there are more than a

few things we need to know about it

Securities Analysis

An analysis of securities and the organization and operation of their markets The determination of the risk reward structure of equity and debt securities and their valuation Special emphasis on common stocks Other topics include options mutual fluids and technical analysis

Technical analysis is a method of predicting price movements and future market trends by studying charts of past market action which take into account price of instruments volume of trading and where applicable open interest in the instruments

Fundamental analysis is a method of forecasting the future price movements of a financial instrument based on economic political environmental and other relevant factors and statistics that will affect the basic supply and demand of whatever underlies the financial instrument

Main differences between the two types of analysis

Fundamental analysis Technical analysis

Focuses on what ought to happen in a market

Focuses on what actually happens in a market

Factors involved in price analysis

1 Supply and demand 2 Seasonal cycles 3 Weather 4 Government policy

Charts are based on market action involving

1 Price2 Volume3 Open interest (futures only)

12 RATIONALE FOR THE STUDY

In an industry plagued with skepticism and a stock market increasingly difficult to predict

and contend with if one looks hard enough there may still be a genuine aid for the Day

Trader and Short Term Investor

The price of a security represents a consensus It is the price at which one person agrees

to buy and another agrees to sell The price at which an investor is willing to buy or sell

depends primarily on his expectations If he expects the securitys price to rise he will

buy it if the investor expects the price to fall he will sell it These simple statements are

the cause of a major challenge in forecasting security prices because they refer to human

expectations As we all know firsthand humans expectations are neither easily

quantifiable nor predictable

If prices are based on investor expectations then knowing what a security should sell for

(ie fundamental analysis) becomes less important than knowing what other investors

expect it to sell for Thats not to say that knowing what a security should sell for isnt

important--it is But there is usually a fairly strong consensus of a stocks future earnings

that the average investor cannot disprove

Fundamental analysis and technical analysis can co-exist in peace and complement each other Since

all the investors in the stock market want to make the maximum profits possible they just cannot

afford to ignore either fundamental or technical analysis

13 OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY

Primary Objective a) To do technical and fundamental analysis of chosen securities

Sub-Objectives

a) to study the various theories of technical analysis and fundamental analysis

b) understand the movement and performance of stocks

c) understanding and analyzing the factors that affect the movement of stock

prices in the Indian Stock Markets

14 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY amp DESIGN

TYPE OF STUDY

The research has been based on secondary data analysis The study has been exploratory

as it aims at examining the secondary data for analyzing the previous researches that have

been done in the area of technical and fundamental analysis of stocks The knowledge

thus gained from this preliminary study forms the basis for the further detailed

Descriptive research In the exploratory study the various technical indicators that are

important for analyzing stock were actually identified and important ones short listed

SAMPLE DESIGN

The sample of the stocks for the purpose of collecting secondary data has been selected

on the basis of Random Sampling The stocks are chosen in an unbiased manner and each

stock is chosen independent of the other stocks chosen

SAMPLE SIZE

The sample size for the number of stocks is taken as 10 for technical analysis and 4 for

fundamental analysis of stocks as fundamental analysis is very exhaustive and requires

detailed study

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

A CONCEPTUAL OVERVIEW

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

Technical analysis can be conditionally divided into some main parts such as

Types of charts Graphical methods Analytical methods Technical indicators

Technical analysis is concerned with predicting future price trends from historical price and volume data The underlying axiom of technical analysis is that all fundamentals (including expectations) are factored into the market and are reflected in exchange rates

A technical analysis is based on three axioms

Movement of the market considers everything Movement of prices is purposeful History repeats itself

SUPPORT AND RESISTANCE

Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

Resistance on the other hand is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher The price at which a trade takes place is the price at which a bull and bear agree to do business It represents the consensus of their expectations

10

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Support levels indicate the price where the most of investors believe that prices will move higher Resistance levels indicate the price at which the most of investors feel prices will move lower

Role Reversal

When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

31 DOW THEORYndash TRENDS

The ideas of Charles Dow the first editor of the Wall Street Journal form the basis of technical analysis The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages Dow created the Industrial Average of top blue chip stocks and a second average of top railroad stocks (now the Transport Average) He believed that the behavior of the averages reflected the hopes and fears of the entire market The behavior patterns that he observed apply to markets throughout the world

Three Movements

Markets fluctuate in more than one time frame at the same time

11

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Nothing is more certain than that the market has three well defined movements which fit into each other

The first is the daily variation due to local causes and the balance of buying and

selling at that particular time

The secondary movement covers a period ranging from ten days to sixty days

averaging probably between thirty and forty days

The third move is the great swing covering from four to six years

Bull markets are broad upward movements of the market that may last several

years interrupted by secondary reactions Bear markets are long declines

interrupted by secondary rallies These movements are referred to as the primary

trend

Secondary movements normally retrace from one third to two thirds of the

primary trend since the previous secondary movement

Daily fluctuations are important for short-term trading but are unimportant in

analysis of broad market movements

Various cycles have subsequently been identified within these broad categories

Primary Movements have Three Phases

The general conditions in the market

Bull markets

Bull markets commence with reviving confidence as business conditions improve

Prices rise as the market responds to improved earnings

12

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Rampant speculation dominates the market and price advances are based on hopes and

expectations rather than actual results

Bear markets

Bear markets start with abandonment of the hopes and expectations that sustained

inflated prices

Prices decline in response to disappointing earnings

Distress selling follows as speculators attempt to close out their positions and

securities are sold without regard to their true value

Ranging Markets

A secondary reaction may take the form of a lsquolinersquo which may endure for several weeks Price fluctuates within a narrow range of about five per cent

Breakouts from a range can occur in either direction

Advances above the upper limit of the line signal accumulation and higher prices

Declines below the lower limit indicate distribution and lower prices

Volume is used to confirm price breakouts

Trends

Bull Trends

A bull trend is identified by a series of rallies where each rally exceeds the highest point of the previous rally The decline between rallies ends above the lowest point of the previous decline

Successive higher highs and higher lows

13

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

Start = higher Low + break above previous High

The end is signaled by a lower high (peak) followed by a decline below the previous low (trough)

End = lower High + break below previous Low

A bear trend starts at the end of a bull trend when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

Large Corrections

A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

14

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A bull trend starts when price rallies above the previous high

A bull trend ends when price declines below the previous low

A bear trend starts at the end of a bull trend (and vice versa)

32 ELLIOT WAVES THEORY BASICS

TRENDLINES

Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations (which causes supplydemand lines to shift)

15

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

An Uptrend is defined by successively higher low-prices A rising trend can be thought of as a rising support level the bulls are in control and are pushing prices higher A Downtrend is defined by successively lower high-prices A falling trend can be thought of as a falling resistance level the bears are in control and are pushing prices lower

33 MOVING AVERAGES

Moving averages are one of the oldest and most popular technical analysis tools A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument over a given time

The moving average represents the consensus of investorrsquos expectations over the indicated period of time

The classic interpretation of a moving average is to use it in observing changes in prices Investors typically buy when the price of an instrument rises above its moving average and sell when the it falls below its moving average

TECHNICAL INDICATORS

There is a vast number of elaborated technical indicators

16

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

MOVING AVERAGE ndashMA RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX mdash RSI The Relative Strength Index

Technical Indicator (RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100 When Wilder introduced the Relative Strength Index he recommended using a 14-day RSI Since then the 9-day and 25-day Relative Strength Index indicators have also gained popularity

ADVANCEDECLINE LINE The ldquoadvancedecline linerdquo shows for some period the cumulative difference between advancing and declining issues

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 shares

HI-LO-CLOSE CHART A hi-lo-close chart is a bar chart showing for each day the high price low price and closing price

CANDLESTICK CHART A candlestick chart is an extended version of the hi-lo-close chart It plots the high low open and closing prices and also shows whether the closing price was above or below the opening price

POINT AND FIGURE CHARTS Point-and-figure charts are a way of showing only major price moves and their direction A ldquomajorrdquo up move is marked with an ldquoXrdquo while a ldquomajorrdquo down move is marked with an ldquoOrdquo A new column starts every time there is a change in direction

HEAD AND SHOULDERS FORMATION Once a chart is drawn analysts examine it for various formations or pattern types in an attempt to predict stock price or market direction in the case of head-and-shoulders formation When the stock price ldquopierces the necklinerdquo after the right shoulder is finished itrsquos time to sell

ODD-LOT The ldquoodd-lotrdquo indicator looks at whether odd-lot purchases are up or down HEMLINE Followers of the ldquohemlinerdquo indicator claim that hemlines tend to rise in good times

SUPER BOWL The Super Bowl indicator forecasts the direction of the market based on whether the National Football Conference or the American Football Conference wins A win by the National Football Conference is bullish

BETA Beta is a risk measure comparing the volatility of a stocks price movement to the general market

17

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

MOMENTUM Momentum measures the speed of price change and provides a leading indicator of changes in trend

UPSIDEDOWNSIDE Measures of UpsideDownside separate the volumes for rising markets from those in falling markets Since volume is independent of price it makes a valuable tool for measuring the quality of a price trend

CHAPTER- 3

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS

A CONCEPTUAL OVERVIEW

18

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Fundamental analysis refers to the study of the core underlying elements that influence the economy of a particular entity It is a method of study that attempts to predict price action and market trends by analyzing economic indicators government policy and societal factors (to name just a few elements) within a business cycle framework

I ECONOMIC ANALYSIS

POLITICO-ECONOMIC ANALYSIS No industry or company can exist in isolation It may have splendid managers and a tremendous product However its sales and its costs are affected by factors some of which are beyond its control - the world economy price inflation taxes and a host of others It is important therefore to have an appreciation of the politico-economic factors that affect an industry and a company

The political equationA stable political environment is necessary for steady balanced growth If a country is ruled by a stable government which takes decisions for the long-term development of the country industry and companies will prosper Foreign Exchange ReservesA country needs foreign exchange reserves to meet its commitments pay for its imports and service foreign debts

Foreign Exchange RiskThis is a real risk and one must be cognizant of the effect of a revaluation or devaluation of the currency either in the home country or in the country the company deals in

Restrictive PracticesRestrictive practices or cartels imposed by countries can affect companies and industries crystallizing the exposure

Foreign Debt and the Balance of Trade

19

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Foreign debt especially if it is very large can be a tremendous burden on an economy India pays around $ 5 billion a year in principal repayments and interest payments InflationInflation has an enormous effect in the economy Within the country it erodes purchasing power As a consequence demand falls If the rate of inflation in the country from which a company imports is high then the cost of production in that country will automatically go up

The Threat of NationalizationThe threat of nationalization is a real threat in many countries ndash the fear that a company may become nationalized

Interest RatesA low interest rate stimulates investment and industry Conversely high interest rates result in higher cost of production and lower consumption

TaxationThe level of taxation in a country has a direct effect on the economy If tax rates are low people have more disposable income

Government PolicyGovernment policy has a direct impact on the economy A government that is perceived to be proindustry will attract investment

THE ECONOMIC CYCLE

It affects investment decisions employment demand and the profitability of companiesThe four stages of an economic cycle are DepressionRecoveryBoom Recession DepressionAt the time of depression demand is low and falling Inflation is high and so are interest rates Companies crippled by high borrowing and falling sales are forced to curtail production close down plants built at times of higher demand and let workers go

RecoveryDuring this phase the economy begins to recover Investment begins anew and the demand grows Companies begin to post profits Conspicuous spending begins once again

Boom

20

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

In the boom phase demand reaches an all time high Investment is also high Interest rates are low Gradually as time goes on supply begins to exceed the demand Prices that had been rising begin to stabilize and even fall There is an increase in demand Then as the boom period matures prices begin to rise again

RecessionThe economy slowly begins to downturn Demand starts falling Interest rates and inflation are high Companies start finding it difficult to sell their goods The economy slowly begins to downturn

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

The importance of industry analysis is now dawning on the Indian investor as never before

CycleThe first step in industry is to determine the cycle it is in or the stage of maturity of the industry All industries evolve through the following stages1 Entrepreneurial sunrise or nascent stage2 Expansion or growth stage3 Stabilization stagnation or maturity stage and4 Decline or sunset stage to properly establish itself In the early days it may actually make losses

The Entrepreneurial or Nascent Stage

21

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

At the first stage the industry is new and it can take some time for it to properly establish itself

The Expansion or Growth StageOnce the industry has established itself it enters a growth stage As the industry grows many new companies enter the industry

The Stabilization or Maturity StageAfter the halcyon days of growth an industry matures and stabilizes Rewards are low and so too is the risk Growth is moderate Though sales may increase they do so at a slower rate than before Products are more standardized and less innovative and there are several competitors

The Decline or Sunset StageFinally the industry declines This occurs when its products are no longer popular This may be on account of several factors such as a change in social habits The film and video industries

1 BARRIER TO ENTRYNew entrants increase the capacity in an industry and the inflow of funds The question that arises is how easy is it to enter an industry There are some barriers to entry

a) Economies of scaleb) Product differentiation c) Capital requirementd) Switching costse) Access to distribution channelsf) Cost disadvantages independent of scaleg) Government policyh) Expected retaliationj) International cartels

2 THE THREAT OF SUBSTITUTIONNew inventions are always taking place and new and better products replace existing ones An industry that can be replaced by substitutes or is threatened by substitutes is normally an industry one must be careful of investing in An industry where this occurs constantly is the packaging industry -bottles replaced by cans cans replaced by plastic bottles and the like To ward off the threat of substitution companies often have to spend large sums of money in advertising and promotion

3 BARGAINING POWER OF THE BUYERSIn an industry where buyers have control ie in a buyers market buyers are constantly forcing prices down demanding better services or higher quality and this often erodes profitability The factors one should check are whether

22

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

a) A particular buyer buys most of the products (large purchase volumes) If such buyers withdraw their patronage they can destroy an industry They can also force prices downb) Buyers can play one company against another to bring prices down

4 BARGAINING POWER FOR THE SUPPLIERSAn industry unduly controlled by its suppliers is also under threat This occurs whena) The suppliers have a monopoly or if there are few suppliersb) Suppliers control an essential c) Demand for the product exceeds d) The supplier supplies to various industriese) The switching costs are highf) The suppliers product does not have a substituteg) The suppliers product is an important input for the buyersh) The buyer is not important to the supplieri) The suppliers product is unique

5 RIVALRY AMONG COMPETITORSRivalry among competitors can cause an industry great harm This occurs mainly by price cuts heavy advertising additional high cost services or offers and the like This rivalry occurs mainly whena) There are many competitors and supply exceeds demand Companies resort to price cuts and advertise heavily in order to attract customers for their goodsb) The industry growth is slow and companies are competing with each other for a greater market sharec) The economy is in a recession and companies cut the price of their products and offer better service to stimulate demandd) There is lack of differentiation between the product of one company and that of another In such cases the buyer makes his choice on the basis of price or servicee) In some industries economies of scale will necessitate large additions to existing capacities in a company The increase in production could result in over capacity amp price cuttingf) Competitors may have very different strategies in selling their goods and in competing they may be continuously trying to stay ahead

III COMPANY ANALYSIS

At the final stage of fundamental analysis the investor analyzes the company This analysis has two thrustsHow has the company performed vis-agrave-vis other similar companies and How has the company performed in comparison to earlier years It is imperative that one completes the politico economic analysis and the industry analysis before a company is analyzed because the companys performance at a period of time is to an extent a reflection of the economy the political situation and the industry What does one look at when analyzing a company The different issues regarding a company that should be examined are The Management

23

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The Company The Annual Report Ratios Cash flow

THE MANAGEMENT

The single most important factor one should consider when investing in a company and one often never considered is its management In India management can be broadlydivided in two types Family Management Professional Management

THE COMPANY

An aspect not necessarily examined during an analysis of fundamentals is the company A company may have made losses consecutively for two years or more and one may not wish to touch its shares - yet it may be a good company and worth purchasing into There are several factors one should look at

1 How a company is perceived by its competitorsOne of the key factors to ascertain is how a company is perceived by its competitors It is held in high regard Its management may be known for its maturity vision competence and aggressiveness The investor must ascertain the reason and then determine whetherthe reason will continue into the foreseeable future

2 Whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segmentAnother aspect that should be ascertained is whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segment When you invest in market leaders the risk is less Theshares of market leaders do not fall as quickly as those of other companies There is a magic to their name that would make individuals prefer to buy their products as opposed to others

3 Company PoliciesThe policy a company follows is also important What is its plans for growth What is its vision Every company has a life If it is allowed to live a normal life it will grow upto a point and then begin to level out and eventually die It is at the point of leveling out that it must be given new life This can give it renewed vigour and a new lease of life

4 Labour RelationsLabour relations are extremely important A company that has motivated industrious work force has high productivity and practically no disruption of work On the other hand a company that has bad industrial relations will lose several hundred mandays as a consequence of strikes and go slows

24

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

5 Where the company is located and where its factories are One must also consider where the companies Plants and Factories are located

THE ANNUAL REPORT

The primary and most important source of information about a company is its Annual Report By law this is prepared every year and distributed to the shareholders Annual Reports are usually very well presented A tremendous amount of data is given about the performance of a company over a period of time The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific partsA) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the Accounts

A The Directorrsquos ReportThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship 1 It enunciates the opinion of the directors on the state of the economy and the political situation vis-agrave-vis the company 2 Explains the performance and the financial results of the company in the period under review This is an extremely important part The results and operations of the various separate divisions are usually detailed and investors can determine the reasons for their good or bad performance3 The Directorrsquos Report details the companys plans for modernization expansion and diversification Without these a company will remain static and eventually decline4 Discusses the profit earned in the period under review and the dividend Recommended by the directors This paragraph should normally be read with some skepticism as the directors will always argue that the performance was satisfactory If adverse economic conditions are usually at fault 5 Elaborates on the directors views of the companys prospects in the future6 Discusses plans for new acquisition and investments An investor must intelligently evaluate the issues raised in a Directorrsquos Report Industry conditions and the managements knowledge of the business must be considered

B The Auditors ReportThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors Auditors are required to report whether the financial statements presented do in fact present a true and fair view of the state of the company Investors must remember that the auditors are their representatives and that they are required by law to point out if the financial statements are not true and fair

CFinancial Statements

25

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The published financial statements of a company in an Annual Report consist of its Balance Sheet as at the end of the accounting period detailing the financing condition of the company at that date and the Profit and Loss Account or Income Statement summarizing the activities of the company for the accounting period

BALANCE SHEETThe Balance Sheet details the financial position of a company on a particular date of the companys assets (that which the company owns) and liabilities (that which the companyowes) grouped logically under specific heads It must however be noted that the Balance Sheet details the financial position on a particular day and that the position can be materially different on the next day or the day after

PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNTThe Profit and Loss account summarizes the activities of a company during an accounting period which may be a month a quarter six months a year or longer and the result achieved by the company It details the income earned by the company its cost and the resulting profit or loss It is in effect the performance appraisal not only of the company but also of its management- its competence foresight and ability to lead

RATIOS

Ratios express mathematically the relationship between performance figures andor assetsliabilities in a form that can be easily understood and interpretedNo single ratio tells the complete storyRatios can be broken down into four broad categories

26

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(A) Profit and Loss RatiosThese show the relationship between two items or groups of items in a profit and loss account or income statement The more common of these ratios are1 Sales to cost of goods sold2 Selling expenses to sales3 Net profit to sales and4 Gross profit to sales

(B) Balance Sheet RatiosThese deal with the relationship in the balance sheet such as 1 Shareholders equity to borrowed funds2 Current assets to current liabilities3 Liabilities to net worth4 Debt to assets and5 Liabilities to assets

(C) Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Account RatiosThese relate an item on the balance sheet to another in the profit and loss account such as1 Earnings to shareholders funds2 Net income to assets employed3 Sales to stock4 Sales to debtors and5 Cost of goods sold to creditors

(D) Financial Statements and Market RatiosThese are normally known as market ratios and are arrived at by relative financial figures to market prices1 Market value to earnings and2 Book value to market value(a) Market value(b) Earnings(c) Profitability(d) Liquidity(e) Leverage(f) Debt Service Capacity(g) Asset ManagementEfficiency(h) Margins

The major ratios that are considered(i) Market value(ii) Price- earnings ratio(iii) Market-to-book ratio(iv) Earnings(v) Earning per share(vi) Dividend per share

27

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(vii) Dividend payout ratio(viii) Leverage ratios(ix) Return on investmentstotal assets

CASH FLOW A statement of sources and uses begins with the profit for the year to which are added the increases in liability accounts (sources) and from which are reduced the increases in asset accounts (uses) The net result shows whether there has been an excess or deficit of funds and how this was financed Investors must examine a companys cash flow as it reveals exactly where the money came from how it was utilized Investors must be concerned if a company is financing either its inventories or paying dividends from borrowings without real growth as that shows deterioration

CHAPTER-4 ANALYSIS

29

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

I FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF STOCKS

Basically fundamental analysis is covered in 3 parts

1 Market economy analysis

2 Industry Analysis

3 Company Analysis

1) TATA MOTORS

I Market Economy Analysis

It covers the macro economy analysis and the various macro economic factors on the national level like GDP Monetary policies of India Fiscal Policies and Inflation and money supply etc

GDP

Real GDP growth accelerated from 75 per cent during 2004-05 to 84 per cent during

2005-06 on the back of buoyant manufacturing and services activity supported by a

recovery in the agricultural sector Real GDP growth has thus averaged over eight per

cent during the last three years and over seven per cent in the first four years (2002-03 to

2005-06) of the Tenth Five Year Plan

Strengths of India today are

30

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A well diversified industrial base which profits from self-reliance in all core industries A

large amp sophisticated financial architecture - The robust capital Markets today have over

9000 listed companies and boast of a massive Market capitalization

A healthy GDP composition with agriculture contributing 22 Industry 22 and

services which have gone strength to strength accounting For 56 of the GDP an

acknowledged strength in knowledge driven industries like Information technology

biotechnology entertainment Software etc

India has Over 3 million scientific amp technical manpower Over 06 million SampT post

graduates Over 07 million graduate engineers Over 3500 doctorates in sciences every

year

Assuming trend growth in agriculture under normal monsoon conditions and barring

domestic or external shocks the Reserve Bank in its Annual Policy Statement for 2007-

08 (April 2007) placed real GDP growth for policy purposes in the range of 75-80 per

cent during 2007-08 Growth prospects are however subject to a number of downside

risks The risks emanating from the global economy are potential escalation and

volatility in international crude oil prices firming up of overall inflationary pressures and

expectations and a hardening of international interest rates along with the withdrawal of

monetary accommodation

Indiarsquos demographic advantage ndash In contrast to developed Countries India will have a

younger population for the next 50 years Hence India would be the hub for RampD

Inflation

Inflation was contained to 63 per cent by end-March 2007 within the indicative

trajectory of 50-55 per cent during 2007-08 The actual inflation was considerably lower

than the indicative trajectory and this could be mainly attributed to the deferred pass-

through of even the cognisable permanent component of international crude oil prices

Money Supply

31

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Monetary and liquidity conditions remained largely comfortable during 2006-07reflecting

proactive liquidity management operations by the Reserve Bank under the liquidity

adjustment facility flexible management of issuances under the market stabilisation

scheme and some private placement of Government securities

In short the Indian economy is exhibiting strong fundamentals and displaying

considerable resilience At the same time there are continuing signs of demand pressures

especially high credit growth that could exert upward pressure on prices when associated

with supply shocks such as from oil These pressures have the potential for impacting

stability and inflation expectations While domestic developments continue to dominate

the economy global factors tend to gain more attention now than before The global

outlook for growth is positive but downside risks in regard to inflation also RBI is

applying new repo and reverse repo for the balance of inflation and monetary policies

The following are macroeconomic policies generally found as part of government-

directed industrial auto policies

(a) Restrictions on domestic and foreign investment

(b) Domestic content requirements

(c) High tariff walls

(d) Auto export requirements

(e) National production to sales ratios

(f) Distribution controls

(g) Quotas and licensing requirements that significantly restrict imports

(h) Government approval for product related decisions including vehicle make

body type engine size etc

(i) Special government categories for auto taxes

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry Today it is

amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output multiplier of

224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy) In recent

32

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

years we have seen increasing number of global players entering Indian market by way of

Joint ventures collaborations or wholly owned subsidiary

The automobile industry is torn between trying to reduce costs on the one hand and on

the other dealing with the high price of performance-enhancing technology and

environmental compliance Key drivers in the automotive industry are

Reducing air pollution

Reduction of weight

Recyclability

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

The automobile market is at the maturity stage of the life cycle locally and globally due

to an increased number of competitors from domestic and foreign markets The

automobile market is characterized by a low potential for market growth but high sales

and profit potential as the products have still not saturated the market as a whole

International In FY 2006-07 the Company increased share of its overseas vehicle sales

from 76 last year to record high of 111 (as of its total sales) and has planned

further increase in this year

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

SWOT ANALYSIS

STRENGHS

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

11 INTRODUCTION

Investing like marriage isnt something that should be entered into lightly You wouldnt

get married on a first date would you Ok maybe some of us would but thats not really

very Foolish Before we marry er I mean invest in a company there are more than a

few things we need to know about it

Securities Analysis

An analysis of securities and the organization and operation of their markets The determination of the risk reward structure of equity and debt securities and their valuation Special emphasis on common stocks Other topics include options mutual fluids and technical analysis

Technical analysis is a method of predicting price movements and future market trends by studying charts of past market action which take into account price of instruments volume of trading and where applicable open interest in the instruments

Fundamental analysis is a method of forecasting the future price movements of a financial instrument based on economic political environmental and other relevant factors and statistics that will affect the basic supply and demand of whatever underlies the financial instrument

Main differences between the two types of analysis

Fundamental analysis Technical analysis

Focuses on what ought to happen in a market

Focuses on what actually happens in a market

Factors involved in price analysis

1 Supply and demand 2 Seasonal cycles 3 Weather 4 Government policy

Charts are based on market action involving

1 Price2 Volume3 Open interest (futures only)

12 RATIONALE FOR THE STUDY

In an industry plagued with skepticism and a stock market increasingly difficult to predict

and contend with if one looks hard enough there may still be a genuine aid for the Day

Trader and Short Term Investor

The price of a security represents a consensus It is the price at which one person agrees

to buy and another agrees to sell The price at which an investor is willing to buy or sell

depends primarily on his expectations If he expects the securitys price to rise he will

buy it if the investor expects the price to fall he will sell it These simple statements are

the cause of a major challenge in forecasting security prices because they refer to human

expectations As we all know firsthand humans expectations are neither easily

quantifiable nor predictable

If prices are based on investor expectations then knowing what a security should sell for

(ie fundamental analysis) becomes less important than knowing what other investors

expect it to sell for Thats not to say that knowing what a security should sell for isnt

important--it is But there is usually a fairly strong consensus of a stocks future earnings

that the average investor cannot disprove

Fundamental analysis and technical analysis can co-exist in peace and complement each other Since

all the investors in the stock market want to make the maximum profits possible they just cannot

afford to ignore either fundamental or technical analysis

13 OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY

Primary Objective a) To do technical and fundamental analysis of chosen securities

Sub-Objectives

a) to study the various theories of technical analysis and fundamental analysis

b) understand the movement and performance of stocks

c) understanding and analyzing the factors that affect the movement of stock

prices in the Indian Stock Markets

14 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY amp DESIGN

TYPE OF STUDY

The research has been based on secondary data analysis The study has been exploratory

as it aims at examining the secondary data for analyzing the previous researches that have

been done in the area of technical and fundamental analysis of stocks The knowledge

thus gained from this preliminary study forms the basis for the further detailed

Descriptive research In the exploratory study the various technical indicators that are

important for analyzing stock were actually identified and important ones short listed

SAMPLE DESIGN

The sample of the stocks for the purpose of collecting secondary data has been selected

on the basis of Random Sampling The stocks are chosen in an unbiased manner and each

stock is chosen independent of the other stocks chosen

SAMPLE SIZE

The sample size for the number of stocks is taken as 10 for technical analysis and 4 for

fundamental analysis of stocks as fundamental analysis is very exhaustive and requires

detailed study

CHAPTER- 2

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

A CONCEPTUAL OVERVIEW

9

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

Technical analysis can be conditionally divided into some main parts such as

Types of charts Graphical methods Analytical methods Technical indicators

Technical analysis is concerned with predicting future price trends from historical price and volume data The underlying axiom of technical analysis is that all fundamentals (including expectations) are factored into the market and are reflected in exchange rates

A technical analysis is based on three axioms

Movement of the market considers everything Movement of prices is purposeful History repeats itself

SUPPORT AND RESISTANCE

Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

Resistance on the other hand is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher The price at which a trade takes place is the price at which a bull and bear agree to do business It represents the consensus of their expectations

10

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Support levels indicate the price where the most of investors believe that prices will move higher Resistance levels indicate the price at which the most of investors feel prices will move lower

Role Reversal

When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

31 DOW THEORYndash TRENDS

The ideas of Charles Dow the first editor of the Wall Street Journal form the basis of technical analysis The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages Dow created the Industrial Average of top blue chip stocks and a second average of top railroad stocks (now the Transport Average) He believed that the behavior of the averages reflected the hopes and fears of the entire market The behavior patterns that he observed apply to markets throughout the world

Three Movements

Markets fluctuate in more than one time frame at the same time

11

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Nothing is more certain than that the market has three well defined movements which fit into each other

The first is the daily variation due to local causes and the balance of buying and

selling at that particular time

The secondary movement covers a period ranging from ten days to sixty days

averaging probably between thirty and forty days

The third move is the great swing covering from four to six years

Bull markets are broad upward movements of the market that may last several

years interrupted by secondary reactions Bear markets are long declines

interrupted by secondary rallies These movements are referred to as the primary

trend

Secondary movements normally retrace from one third to two thirds of the

primary trend since the previous secondary movement

Daily fluctuations are important for short-term trading but are unimportant in

analysis of broad market movements

Various cycles have subsequently been identified within these broad categories

Primary Movements have Three Phases

The general conditions in the market

Bull markets

Bull markets commence with reviving confidence as business conditions improve

Prices rise as the market responds to improved earnings

12

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Rampant speculation dominates the market and price advances are based on hopes and

expectations rather than actual results

Bear markets

Bear markets start with abandonment of the hopes and expectations that sustained

inflated prices

Prices decline in response to disappointing earnings

Distress selling follows as speculators attempt to close out their positions and

securities are sold without regard to their true value

Ranging Markets

A secondary reaction may take the form of a lsquolinersquo which may endure for several weeks Price fluctuates within a narrow range of about five per cent

Breakouts from a range can occur in either direction

Advances above the upper limit of the line signal accumulation and higher prices

Declines below the lower limit indicate distribution and lower prices

Volume is used to confirm price breakouts

Trends

Bull Trends

A bull trend is identified by a series of rallies where each rally exceeds the highest point of the previous rally The decline between rallies ends above the lowest point of the previous decline

Successive higher highs and higher lows

13

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

Start = higher Low + break above previous High

The end is signaled by a lower high (peak) followed by a decline below the previous low (trough)

End = lower High + break below previous Low

A bear trend starts at the end of a bull trend when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

Large Corrections

A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

14

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A bull trend starts when price rallies above the previous high

A bull trend ends when price declines below the previous low

A bear trend starts at the end of a bull trend (and vice versa)

32 ELLIOT WAVES THEORY BASICS

TRENDLINES

Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations (which causes supplydemand lines to shift)

15

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

An Uptrend is defined by successively higher low-prices A rising trend can be thought of as a rising support level the bulls are in control and are pushing prices higher A Downtrend is defined by successively lower high-prices A falling trend can be thought of as a falling resistance level the bears are in control and are pushing prices lower

33 MOVING AVERAGES

Moving averages are one of the oldest and most popular technical analysis tools A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument over a given time

The moving average represents the consensus of investorrsquos expectations over the indicated period of time

The classic interpretation of a moving average is to use it in observing changes in prices Investors typically buy when the price of an instrument rises above its moving average and sell when the it falls below its moving average

TECHNICAL INDICATORS

There is a vast number of elaborated technical indicators

16

MOVING AVERAGE ndashMA RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX mdash RSI The Relative Strength Index

Technical Indicator (RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100 When Wilder introduced the Relative Strength Index he recommended using a 14-day RSI Since then the 9-day and 25-day Relative Strength Index indicators have also gained popularity

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 shares

ODD-LOT The ldquoodd-lotrdquo indicator looks at whether odd-lot purchases are up or down HEMLINE Followers of the ldquohemlinerdquo indicator claim that hemlines tend to rise in good times

SUPER BOWL The Super Bowl indicator forecasts the direction of the market based on whether the National Football Conference or the American Football Conference wins A win by the National Football Conference is bullish

BETA Beta is a risk measure comparing the volatility of a stocks price movement to the general market

MOMENTUM Momentum measures the speed of price change and provides a leading indicator of changes in trend

UPSIDEDOWNSIDE Measures of UpsideDownside separate the volumes for rising markets from those in falling markets Since volume is independent of price it makes a valuable tool for measuring the quality of a price trend

CHAPTER- 3

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS

A CONCEPTUAL OVERVIEW

18

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Fundamental analysis refers to the study of the core underlying elements that influence the economy of a particular entity It is a method of study that attempts to predict price action and market trends by analyzing economic indicators government policy and societal factors (to name just a few elements) within a business cycle framework

I ECONOMIC ANALYSIS

POLITICO-ECONOMIC ANALYSIS No industry or company can exist in isolation It may have splendid managers and a tremendous product However its sales and its costs are affected by factors some of which are beyond its control - the world economy price inflation taxes and a host of others It is important therefore to have an appreciation of the politico-economic factors that affect an industry and a company

The political equationA stable political environment is necessary for steady balanced growth If a country is ruled by a stable government which takes decisions for the long-term development of the country industry and companies will prosper Foreign Exchange ReservesA country needs foreign exchange reserves to meet its commitments pay for its imports and service foreign debts

Foreign Exchange RiskThis is a real risk and one must be cognizant of the effect of a revaluation or devaluation of the currency either in the home country or in the country the company deals in

Restrictive PracticesRestrictive practices or cartels imposed by countries can affect companies and industries crystallizing the exposure

Foreign Debt and the Balance of Trade

19

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Foreign debt especially if it is very large can be a tremendous burden on an economy India pays around $ 5 billion a year in principal repayments and interest payments InflationInflation has an enormous effect in the economy Within the country it erodes purchasing power As a consequence demand falls If the rate of inflation in the country from which a company imports is high then the cost of production in that country will automatically go up

The Threat of NationalizationThe threat of nationalization is a real threat in many countries ndash the fear that a company may become nationalized

Interest RatesA low interest rate stimulates investment and industry Conversely high interest rates result in higher cost of production and lower consumption

TaxationThe level of taxation in a country has a direct effect on the economy If tax rates are low people have more disposable income

Government PolicyGovernment policy has a direct impact on the economy A government that is perceived to be proindustry will attract investment

THE ECONOMIC CYCLE

It affects investment decisions employment demand and the profitability of companiesThe four stages of an economic cycle are DepressionRecoveryBoom Recession DepressionAt the time of depression demand is low and falling Inflation is high and so are interest rates Companies crippled by high borrowing and falling sales are forced to curtail production close down plants built at times of higher demand and let workers go

RecoveryDuring this phase the economy begins to recover Investment begins anew and the demand grows Companies begin to post profits Conspicuous spending begins once again

Boom

20

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

In the boom phase demand reaches an all time high Investment is also high Interest rates are low Gradually as time goes on supply begins to exceed the demand Prices that had been rising begin to stabilize and even fall There is an increase in demand Then as the boom period matures prices begin to rise again

RecessionThe economy slowly begins to downturn Demand starts falling Interest rates and inflation are high Companies start finding it difficult to sell their goods The economy slowly begins to downturn

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

The importance of industry analysis is now dawning on the Indian investor as never before

CycleThe first step in industry is to determine the cycle it is in or the stage of maturity of the industry All industries evolve through the following stages1 Entrepreneurial sunrise or nascent stage2 Expansion or growth stage3 Stabilization stagnation or maturity stage and4 Decline or sunset stage to properly establish itself In the early days it may actually make losses

The Entrepreneurial or Nascent Stage

21

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

At the first stage the industry is new and it can take some time for it to properly establish itself

The Expansion or Growth StageOnce the industry has established itself it enters a growth stage As the industry grows many new companies enter the industry

The Stabilization or Maturity StageAfter the halcyon days of growth an industry matures and stabilizes Rewards are low and so too is the risk Growth is moderate Though sales may increase they do so at a slower rate than before Products are more standardized and less innovative and there are several competitors

The Decline or Sunset StageFinally the industry declines This occurs when its products are no longer popular This may be on account of several factors such as a change in social habits The film and video industries

1 BARRIER TO ENTRYNew entrants increase the capacity in an industry and the inflow of funds The question that arises is how easy is it to enter an industry There are some barriers to entry

a) Economies of scaleb) Product differentiation c) Capital requirementd) Switching costse) Access to distribution channelsf) Cost disadvantages independent of scaleg) Government policyh) Expected retaliationj) International cartels

2 THE THREAT OF SUBSTITUTIONNew inventions are always taking place and new and better products replace existing ones An industry that can be replaced by substitutes or is threatened by substitutes is normally an industry one must be careful of investing in An industry where this occurs constantly is the packaging industry -bottles replaced by cans cans replaced by plastic bottles and the like To ward off the threat of substitution companies often have to spend large sums of money in advertising and promotion

3 BARGAINING POWER OF THE BUYERSIn an industry where buyers have control ie in a buyers market buyers are constantly forcing prices down demanding better services or higher quality and this often erodes profitability The factors one should check are whether

22

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

a) A particular buyer buys most of the products (large purchase volumes) If such buyers withdraw their patronage they can destroy an industry They can also force prices downb) Buyers can play one company against another to bring prices down

4 BARGAINING POWER FOR THE SUPPLIERSAn industry unduly controlled by its suppliers is also under threat This occurs whena) The suppliers have a monopoly or if there are few suppliersb) Suppliers control an essential c) Demand for the product exceeds d) The supplier supplies to various industriese) The switching costs are highf) The suppliers product does not have a substituteg) The suppliers product is an important input for the buyersh) The buyer is not important to the supplieri) The suppliers product is unique

5 RIVALRY AMONG COMPETITORSRivalry among competitors can cause an industry great harm This occurs mainly by price cuts heavy advertising additional high cost services or offers and the like This rivalry occurs mainly whena) There are many competitors and supply exceeds demand Companies resort to price cuts and advertise heavily in order to attract customers for their goodsb) The industry growth is slow and companies are competing with each other for a greater market sharec) The economy is in a recession and companies cut the price of their products and offer better service to stimulate demandd) There is lack of differentiation between the product of one company and that of another In such cases the buyer makes his choice on the basis of price or servicee) In some industries economies of scale will necessitate large additions to existing capacities in a company The increase in production could result in over capacity amp price cuttingf) Competitors may have very different strategies in selling their goods and in competing they may be continuously trying to stay ahead

III COMPANY ANALYSIS

At the final stage of fundamental analysis the investor analyzes the company This analysis has two thrustsHow has the company performed vis-agrave-vis other similar companies and How has the company performed in comparison to earlier years It is imperative that one completes the politico economic analysis and the industry analysis before a company is analyzed because the companys performance at a period of time is to an extent a reflection of the economy the political situation and the industry What does one look at when analyzing a company The different issues regarding a company that should be examined are The Management

23

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The Company The Annual Report Ratios Cash flow

THE MANAGEMENT

The single most important factor one should consider when investing in a company and one often never considered is its management In India management can be broadlydivided in two types Family Management Professional Management

THE COMPANY

An aspect not necessarily examined during an analysis of fundamentals is the company A company may have made losses consecutively for two years or more and one may not wish to touch its shares - yet it may be a good company and worth purchasing into There are several factors one should look at

1 How a company is perceived by its competitorsOne of the key factors to ascertain is how a company is perceived by its competitors It is held in high regard Its management may be known for its maturity vision competence and aggressiveness The investor must ascertain the reason and then determine whetherthe reason will continue into the foreseeable future

2 Whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segmentAnother aspect that should be ascertained is whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segment When you invest in market leaders the risk is less Theshares of market leaders do not fall as quickly as those of other companies There is a magic to their name that would make individuals prefer to buy their products as opposed to others

3 Company PoliciesThe policy a company follows is also important What is its plans for growth What is its vision Every company has a life If it is allowed to live a normal life it will grow upto a point and then begin to level out and eventually die It is at the point of leveling out that it must be given new life This can give it renewed vigour and a new lease of life

4 Labour RelationsLabour relations are extremely important A company that has motivated industrious work force has high productivity and practically no disruption of work On the other hand a company that has bad industrial relations will lose several hundred mandays as a consequence of strikes and go slows

24

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

5 Where the company is located and where its factories are One must also consider where the companies Plants and Factories are located

THE ANNUAL REPORT

The primary and most important source of information about a company is its Annual Report By law this is prepared every year and distributed to the shareholders Annual Reports are usually very well presented A tremendous amount of data is given about the performance of a company over a period of time The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific partsA) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the Accounts

A The Directorrsquos ReportThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship 1 It enunciates the opinion of the directors on the state of the economy and the political situation vis-agrave-vis the company 2 Explains the performance and the financial results of the company in the period under review This is an extremely important part The results and operations of the various separate divisions are usually detailed and investors can determine the reasons for their good or bad performance3 The Directorrsquos Report details the companys plans for modernization expansion and diversification Without these a company will remain static and eventually decline4 Discusses the profit earned in the period under review and the dividend Recommended by the directors This paragraph should normally be read with some skepticism as the directors will always argue that the performance was satisfactory If adverse economic conditions are usually at fault 5 Elaborates on the directors views of the companys prospects in the future6 Discusses plans for new acquisition and investments An investor must intelligently evaluate the issues raised in a Directorrsquos Report Industry conditions and the managements knowledge of the business must be considered

B The Auditors ReportThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors Auditors are required to report whether the financial statements presented do in fact present a true and fair view of the state of the company Investors must remember that the auditors are their representatives and that they are required by law to point out if the financial statements are not true and fair

CFinancial Statements

25

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The published financial statements of a company in an Annual Report consist of its Balance Sheet as at the end of the accounting period detailing the financing condition of the company at that date and the Profit and Loss Account or Income Statement summarizing the activities of the company for the accounting period

BALANCE SHEETThe Balance Sheet details the financial position of a company on a particular date of the companys assets (that which the company owns) and liabilities (that which the companyowes) grouped logically under specific heads It must however be noted that the Balance Sheet details the financial position on a particular day and that the position can be materially different on the next day or the day after

PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNTThe Profit and Loss account summarizes the activities of a company during an accounting period which may be a month a quarter six months a year or longer and the result achieved by the company It details the income earned by the company its cost and the resulting profit or loss It is in effect the performance appraisal not only of the company but also of its management- its competence foresight and ability to lead

RATIOS

Ratios express mathematically the relationship between performance figures andor assetsliabilities in a form that can be easily understood and interpretedNo single ratio tells the complete storyRatios can be broken down into four broad categories

26

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(A) Profit and Loss RatiosThese show the relationship between two items or groups of items in a profit and loss account or income statement The more common of these ratios are1 Sales to cost of goods sold2 Selling expenses to sales3 Net profit to sales and4 Gross profit to sales

(B) Balance Sheet RatiosThese deal with the relationship in the balance sheet such as 1 Shareholders equity to borrowed funds2 Current assets to current liabilities3 Liabilities to net worth4 Debt to assets and5 Liabilities to assets

(C) Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Account RatiosThese relate an item on the balance sheet to another in the profit and loss account such as1 Earnings to shareholders funds2 Net income to assets employed3 Sales to stock4 Sales to debtors and5 Cost of goods sold to creditors

(D) Financial Statements and Market RatiosThese are normally known as market ratios and are arrived at by relative financial figures to market prices1 Market value to earnings and2 Book value to market value(a) Market value(b) Earnings(c) Profitability(d) Liquidity(e) Leverage(f) Debt Service Capacity(g) Asset ManagementEfficiency(h) Margins

The major ratios that are considered(i) Market value(ii) Price- earnings ratio(iii) Market-to-book ratio(iv) Earnings(v) Earning per share(vi) Dividend per share

27

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(vii) Dividend payout ratio(viii) Leverage ratios(ix) Return on investmentstotal assets

CASH FLOW A statement of sources and uses begins with the profit for the year to which are added the increases in liability accounts (sources) and from which are reduced the increases in asset accounts (uses) The net result shows whether there has been an excess or deficit of funds and how this was financed Investors must examine a companys cash flow as it reveals exactly where the money came from how it was utilized Investors must be concerned if a company is financing either its inventories or paying dividends from borrowings without real growth as that shows deterioration

CHAPTER-4 ANALYSIS

29

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

I FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF STOCKS

Basically fundamental analysis is covered in 3 parts

1 Market economy analysis

2 Industry Analysis

3 Company Analysis

1) TATA MOTORS

I Market Economy Analysis

It covers the macro economy analysis and the various macro economic factors on the national level like GDP Monetary policies of India Fiscal Policies and Inflation and money supply etc

GDP

Real GDP growth accelerated from 75 per cent during 2004-05 to 84 per cent during

2005-06 on the back of buoyant manufacturing and services activity supported by a

recovery in the agricultural sector Real GDP growth has thus averaged over eight per

cent during the last three years and over seven per cent in the first four years (2002-03 to

2005-06) of the Tenth Five Year Plan

Strengths of India today are

30

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A well diversified industrial base which profits from self-reliance in all core industries A

large amp sophisticated financial architecture - The robust capital Markets today have over

9000 listed companies and boast of a massive Market capitalization

A healthy GDP composition with agriculture contributing 22 Industry 22 and

services which have gone strength to strength accounting For 56 of the GDP an

acknowledged strength in knowledge driven industries like Information technology

biotechnology entertainment Software etc

India has Over 3 million scientific amp technical manpower Over 06 million SampT post

graduates Over 07 million graduate engineers Over 3500 doctorates in sciences every

year

Assuming trend growth in agriculture under normal monsoon conditions and barring

domestic or external shocks the Reserve Bank in its Annual Policy Statement for 2007-

08 (April 2007) placed real GDP growth for policy purposes in the range of 75-80 per

cent during 2007-08 Growth prospects are however subject to a number of downside

risks The risks emanating from the global economy are potential escalation and

volatility in international crude oil prices firming up of overall inflationary pressures and

expectations and a hardening of international interest rates along with the withdrawal of

monetary accommodation

Indiarsquos demographic advantage ndash In contrast to developed Countries India will have a

younger population for the next 50 years Hence India would be the hub for RampD

Inflation

Inflation was contained to 63 per cent by end-March 2007 within the indicative

trajectory of 50-55 per cent during 2007-08 The actual inflation was considerably lower

than the indicative trajectory and this could be mainly attributed to the deferred pass-

through of even the cognisable permanent component of international crude oil prices

Money Supply

31

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Monetary and liquidity conditions remained largely comfortable during 2006-07reflecting

proactive liquidity management operations by the Reserve Bank under the liquidity

adjustment facility flexible management of issuances under the market stabilisation

scheme and some private placement of Government securities

In short the Indian economy is exhibiting strong fundamentals and displaying

considerable resilience At the same time there are continuing signs of demand pressures

especially high credit growth that could exert upward pressure on prices when associated

with supply shocks such as from oil These pressures have the potential for impacting

stability and inflation expectations While domestic developments continue to dominate

the economy global factors tend to gain more attention now than before The global

outlook for growth is positive but downside risks in regard to inflation also RBI is

applying new repo and reverse repo for the balance of inflation and monetary policies

The following are macroeconomic policies generally found as part of government-

directed industrial auto policies

(a) Restrictions on domestic and foreign investment

(b) Domestic content requirements

(c) High tariff walls

(d) Auto export requirements

(e) National production to sales ratios

(f) Distribution controls

(g) Quotas and licensing requirements that significantly restrict imports

(h) Government approval for product related decisions including vehicle make

body type engine size etc

(i) Special government categories for auto taxes

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry Today it is

amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output multiplier of

224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy) In recent

32

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

years we have seen increasing number of global players entering Indian market by way of

Joint ventures collaborations or wholly owned subsidiary

The automobile industry is torn between trying to reduce costs on the one hand and on

the other dealing with the high price of performance-enhancing technology and

environmental compliance Key drivers in the automotive industry are

Reducing air pollution

Reduction of weight

Recyclability

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

The automobile market is at the maturity stage of the life cycle locally and globally due

to an increased number of competitors from domestic and foreign markets The

automobile market is characterized by a low potential for market growth but high sales

and profit potential as the products have still not saturated the market as a whole

Opportunities and Threats

a) Opportunities

Road Development The ongoing road development program would improve

connectivity to ports cities and villages through a network of highways and

interconnecting roads by 2010-11 Improved road network would help in faster

34

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

movement of goods between various cities and towns The Company launched TATA

Novus range of vehicles in the heavy segment and TATA ACE for last mile distribution

Car penetration in India Car penetration in India is 7 cars per 1000 persons

International In FY 2006-07 the Company increased share of its overseas vehicle sales

from 76 last year to record high of 111 (as of its total sales) and has planned

further increase in this year

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

78

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

ADVANCEDECLINE LINE The ldquoadvancedecline linerdquo shows for some period the cumulative difference between advancing and declining issues

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 sharesHI-LO-CLOSE CHART A hi-lo-close chart is a bar chart showing for each day the

high price low price and closing price

CANDESTICK CHART A candlestick chart is an extended version of the hi-lo-close chart It plots the high low open and closing prices and also shows whether the closing price was above or below the opening price

POINT AND FIGURE CHARTS Point-and-figure charts are a way of showing only major price moves and their direction A ldquomajorrdquo up move is marked with an ldquoXrdquo while a ldquomajorrdquo down move is marked with an ldquoOrdquo A new column starts every time there is a change in direction

HEAD AND SHOULDERS FORMATION Once a chart is drawn technical analysts examine it for various formations or pattern types in an attempt to predict stock price or market direction in the case of head-and-shoulders formation

ODD-LOT The ldquoodd-lotrdquo indicator looks at whether odd-lot purchases are up or down

HEMLINE Followers of the ldquohemlinerdquo indicator claim that hemlines tend to rise in good times

SUPER BOWL The Super Bowl indicator forecasts the direction of the market based on whether the National Football Conference or the American Football Conference wins

BETA Beta is a risk measure comparing the volatility of a stocks price movement to the general market

MOMENTUM Momentum measures the speed of price change and provides a leading indicator of changes in trend

UPSIDEDOWNSIDE Measures of UpsideDownside separate the volumes for rising markets from those in falling markets Since volume is independent of price it makes a valuable tool for measuring the quality of a price trend

SWING INDEX Is a swing or wave system used to capitalize on breakout patterns ASI is commonly used to confirm trend line breakouts on price charts

ARMS INDEX (TRIN) Short term breadth indicator showing whether volume is flowing into advancing or declining issues

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

11 INTRODUCTION

Investing like marriage isnt something that should be entered into lightly You wouldnt

get married on a first date would you Ok maybe some of us would but thats not really

very Foolish Before we marry er I mean invest in a company there are more than a

few things we need to know about it

Securities Analysis

An analysis of securities and the organization and operation of their markets The determination of the risk reward structure of equity and debt securities and their valuation Special emphasis on common stocks Other topics include options mutual fluids and technical analysis

Technical analysis is a method of predicting price movements and future market trends by studying charts of past market action which take into account price of instruments volume of trading and where applicable open interest in the instruments

Fundamental analysis is a method of forecasting the future price movements of a financial instrument based on economic political environmental and other relevant factors and statistics that will affect the basic supply and demand of whatever underlies the financial instrument

Main differences between the two types of analysis

Fundamental analysis Technical analysis

Focuses on what ought to happen in a market

Focuses on what actually happens in a market

Factors involved in price analysis

1 Supply and demand 2 Seasonal cycles 3 Weather 4 Government policy

Charts are based on market action involving

1 Price2 Volume3 Open interest (futures only)

12 RATIONALE FOR THE STUDY

In an industry plagued with skepticism and a stock market increasingly difficult to predict

and contend with if one looks hard enough there may still be a genuine aid for the Day

Trader and Short Term Investor

The price of a security represents a consensus It is the price at which one person agrees

to buy and another agrees to sell The price at which an investor is willing to buy or sell

depends primarily on his expectations If he expects the securitys price to rise he will

buy it if the investor expects the price to fall he will sell it These simple statements are

the cause of a major challenge in forecasting security prices because they refer to human

expectations As we all know firsthand humans expectations are neither easily

quantifiable nor predictable

If prices are based on investor expectations then knowing what a security should sell for

(ie fundamental analysis) becomes less important than knowing what other investors

expect it to sell for Thats not to say that knowing what a security should sell for isnt

important--it is But there is usually a fairly strong consensus of a stocks future earnings

that the average investor cannot disprove

Fundamental analysis and technical analysis can co-exist in peace and complement each other Since

all the investors in the stock market want to make the maximum profits possible they just cannot

afford to ignore either fundamental or technical analysis

13 OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY

Primary Objective a) To do technical and fundamental analysis of chosen securities

Sub-Objectives

a) to study the various theories of technical analysis and fundamental analysis

b) understand the movement and performance of stocks

c) understanding and analyzing the factors that affect the movement of stock

prices in the Indian Stock Markets

14 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY amp DESIGN

TYPE OF STUDY

The research has been based on secondary data analysis The study has been exploratory

as it aims at examining the secondary data for analyzing the previous researches that have

been done in the area of technical and fundamental analysis of stocks The knowledge

thus gained from this preliminary study forms the basis for the further detailed

Descriptive research In the exploratory study the various technical indicators that are

important for analyzing stock were actually identified and important ones short listed

SAMPLE DESIGN

The sample of the stocks for the purpose of collecting secondary data has been selected

on the basis of Random Sampling The stocks are chosen in an unbiased manner and each

stock is chosen independent of the other stocks chosen

SAMPLE SIZE

The sample size for the number of stocks is taken as 10 for technical analysis and 4 for

fundamental analysis of stocks as fundamental analysis is very exhaustive and requires

detailed study

CHAPTER- 2

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

A CONCEPTUAL OVERVIEW

9

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

Technical analysis can be conditionally divided into some main parts such as

Types of charts Graphical methods Analytical methods Technical indicators

Technical analysis is concerned with predicting future price trends from historical price and volume data The underlying axiom of technical analysis is that all fundamentals (including expectations) are factored into the market and are reflected in exchange rates

A technical analysis is based on three axioms

Movement of the market considers everything Movement of prices is purposeful History repeats itself

SUPPORT AND RESISTANCE

Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

Resistance on the other hand is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher The price at which a trade takes place is the price at which a bull and bear agree to do business It represents the consensus of their expectations

10

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Support levels indicate the price where the most of investors believe that prices will move higher Resistance levels indicate the price at which the most of investors feel prices will move lower

Role Reversal

When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

31 DOW THEORYndash TRENDS

The ideas of Charles Dow the first editor of the Wall Street Journal form the basis of technical analysis The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages Dow created the Industrial Average of top blue chip stocks and a second average of top railroad stocks (now the Transport Average) He believed that the behavior of the averages reflected the hopes and fears of the entire market The behavior patterns that he observed apply to markets throughout the world

Three Movements

Markets fluctuate in more than one time frame at the same time

11

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Nothing is more certain than that the market has three well defined movements which fit into each other

The first is the daily variation due to local causes and the balance of buying and

selling at that particular time

The secondary movement covers a period ranging from ten days to sixty days

averaging probably between thirty and forty days

The third move is the great swing covering from four to six years

Bull markets are broad upward movements of the market that may last several

years interrupted by secondary reactions Bear markets are long declines

interrupted by secondary rallies These movements are referred to as the primary

trend

Secondary movements normally retrace from one third to two thirds of the

primary trend since the previous secondary movement

Daily fluctuations are important for short-term trading but are unimportant in

analysis of broad market movements

Various cycles have subsequently been identified within these broad categories

Primary Movements have Three Phases

The general conditions in the market

Bull markets

Bull markets commence with reviving confidence as business conditions improve

Prices rise as the market responds to improved earnings

12

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Rampant speculation dominates the market and price advances are based on hopes and

expectations rather than actual results

Bear markets

Bear markets start with abandonment of the hopes and expectations that sustained

inflated prices

Prices decline in response to disappointing earnings

Distress selling follows as speculators attempt to close out their positions and

securities are sold without regard to their true value

Ranging Markets

A secondary reaction may take the form of a lsquolinersquo which may endure for several weeks Price fluctuates within a narrow range of about five per cent

Breakouts from a range can occur in either direction

Advances above the upper limit of the line signal accumulation and higher prices

Declines below the lower limit indicate distribution and lower prices

Volume is used to confirm price breakouts

Trends

Bull Trends

A bull trend is identified by a series of rallies where each rally exceeds the highest point of the previous rally The decline between rallies ends above the lowest point of the previous decline

Successive higher highs and higher lows

13

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

Start = higher Low + break above previous High

The end is signaled by a lower high (peak) followed by a decline below the previous low (trough)

End = lower High + break below previous Low

A bear trend starts at the end of a bull trend when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

Large Corrections

A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

14

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A bull trend starts when price rallies above the previous high

A bull trend ends when price declines below the previous low

A bear trend starts at the end of a bull trend (and vice versa)

32 ELLIOT WAVES THEORY BASICS

TRENDLINES

Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations (which causes supplydemand lines to shift)

15

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

An Uptrend is defined by successively higher low-prices A rising trend can be thought of as a rising support level the bulls are in control and are pushing prices higher A Downtrend is defined by successively lower high-prices A falling trend can be thought of as a falling resistance level the bears are in control and are pushing prices lower

33 MOVING AVERAGES

Moving averages are one of the oldest and most popular technical analysis tools A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument over a given time

The moving average represents the consensus of investorrsquos expectations over the indicated period of time

The classic interpretation of a moving average is to use it in observing changes in prices Investors typically buy when the price of an instrument rises above its moving average and sell when the it falls below its moving average

TECHNICAL INDICATORS

There is a vast number of elaborated technical indicators

16

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

MOVING AVERAGE ndashMA RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX mdash RSI The Relative Strength Index

Technical Indicator (RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100 When Wilder introduced the Relative Strength Index he recommended using a 14-day RSI Since then the 9-day and 25-day Relative Strength Index indicators have also gained popularity

ADVANCEDECLINE LINE The ldquoadvancedecline linerdquo shows for some period the cumulative difference between advancing and declining issues

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

CHAPTER- 3

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS

A CONCEPTUAL OVERVIEW

18

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Fundamental analysis refers to the study of the core underlying elements that influence the economy of a particular entity It is a method of study that attempts to predict price action and market trends by analyzing economic indicators government policy and societal factors (to name just a few elements) within a business cycle framework

I ECONOMIC ANALYSIS

POLITICO-ECONOMIC ANALYSIS No industry or company can exist in isolation It may have splendid managers and a tremendous product However its sales and its costs are affected by factors some of which are beyond its control - the world economy price inflation taxes and a host of others It is important therefore to have an appreciation of the politico-economic factors that affect an industry and a company

The political equationA stable political environment is necessary for steady balanced growth If a country is ruled by a stable government which takes decisions for the long-term development of the country industry and companies will prosper Foreign Exchange ReservesA country needs foreign exchange reserves to meet its commitments pay for its imports and service foreign debts

Foreign Exchange RiskThis is a real risk and one must be cognizant of the effect of a revaluation or devaluation of the currency either in the home country or in the country the company deals in

Restrictive PracticesRestrictive practices or cartels imposed by countries can affect companies and industries crystallizing the exposure

Foreign Debt and the Balance of Trade

19

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Foreign debt especially if it is very large can be a tremendous burden on an economy India pays around $ 5 billion a year in principal repayments and interest payments InflationInflation has an enormous effect in the economy Within the country it erodes purchasing power As a consequence demand falls If the rate of inflation in the country from which a company imports is high then the cost of production in that country will automatically go up

The Threat of NationalizationThe threat of nationalization is a real threat in many countries ndash the fear that a company may become nationalized

Interest RatesA low interest rate stimulates investment and industry Conversely high interest rates result in higher cost of production and lower consumption

TaxationThe level of taxation in a country has a direct effect on the economy If tax rates are low people have more disposable income

Government PolicyGovernment policy has a direct impact on the economy A government that is perceived to be proindustry will attract investment

THE ECONOMIC CYCLE

It affects investment decisions employment demand and the profitability of companiesThe four stages of an economic cycle are DepressionRecoveryBoom Recession DepressionAt the time of depression demand is low and falling Inflation is high and so are interest rates Companies crippled by high borrowing and falling sales are forced to curtail production close down plants built at times of higher demand and let workers go

RecoveryDuring this phase the economy begins to recover Investment begins anew and the demand grows Companies begin to post profits Conspicuous spending begins once again

Boom

20

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

In the boom phase demand reaches an all time high Investment is also high Interest rates are low Gradually as time goes on supply begins to exceed the demand Prices that had been rising begin to stabilize and even fall There is an increase in demand Then as the boom period matures prices begin to rise again

RecessionThe economy slowly begins to downturn Demand starts falling Interest rates and inflation are high Companies start finding it difficult to sell their goods The economy slowly begins to downturn

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

The importance of industry analysis is now dawning on the Indian investor as never before

CycleThe first step in industry is to determine the cycle it is in or the stage of maturity of the industry All industries evolve through the following stages1 Entrepreneurial sunrise or nascent stage2 Expansion or growth stage3 Stabilization stagnation or maturity stage and4 Decline or sunset stage to properly establish itself In the early days it may actually make losses

The Entrepreneurial or Nascent Stage

21

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

At the first stage the industry is new and it can take some time for it to properly establish itself

The Expansion or Growth StageOnce the industry has established itself it enters a growth stage As the industry grows many new companies enter the industry

The Stabilization or Maturity StageAfter the halcyon days of growth an industry matures and stabilizes Rewards are low and so too is the risk Growth is moderate Though sales may increase they do so at a slower rate than before Products are more standardized and less innovative and there are several competitors

The Decline or Sunset StageFinally the industry declines This occurs when its products are no longer popular This may be on account of several factors such as a change in social habits The film and video industries

1 BARRIER TO ENTRYNew entrants increase the capacity in an industry and the inflow of funds The question that arises is how easy is it to enter an industry There are some barriers to entry

a) Economies of scaleb) Product differentiation c) Capital requirementd) Switching costse) Access to distribution channelsf) Cost disadvantages independent of scaleg) Government policyh) Expected retaliationj) International cartels

2 THE THREAT OF SUBSTITUTIONNew inventions are always taking place and new and better products replace existing ones An industry that can be replaced by substitutes or is threatened by substitutes is normally an industry one must be careful of investing in An industry where this occurs constantly is the packaging industry -bottles replaced by cans cans replaced by plastic bottles and the like To ward off the threat of substitution companies often have to spend large sums of money in advertising and promotion

3 BARGAINING POWER OF THE BUYERSIn an industry where buyers have control ie in a buyers market buyers are constantly forcing prices down demanding better services or higher quality and this often erodes profitability The factors one should check are whether

22

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

a) A particular buyer buys most of the products (large purchase volumes) If such buyers withdraw their patronage they can destroy an industry They can also force prices downb) Buyers can play one company against another to bring prices down

4 BARGAINING POWER FOR THE SUPPLIERSAn industry unduly controlled by its suppliers is also under threat This occurs whena) The suppliers have a monopoly or if there are few suppliersb) Suppliers control an essential c) Demand for the product exceeds d) The supplier supplies to various industriese) The switching costs are highf) The suppliers product does not have a substituteg) The suppliers product is an important input for the buyersh) The buyer is not important to the supplieri) The suppliers product is unique

5 RIVALRY AMONG COMPETITORSRivalry among competitors can cause an industry great harm This occurs mainly by price cuts heavy advertising additional high cost services or offers and the like This rivalry occurs mainly whena) There are many competitors and supply exceeds demand Companies resort to price cuts and advertise heavily in order to attract customers for their goodsb) The industry growth is slow and companies are competing with each other for a greater market sharec) The economy is in a recession and companies cut the price of their products and offer better service to stimulate demandd) There is lack of differentiation between the product of one company and that of another In such cases the buyer makes his choice on the basis of price or servicee) In some industries economies of scale will necessitate large additions to existing capacities in a company The increase in production could result in over capacity amp price cuttingf) Competitors may have very different strategies in selling their goods and in competing they may be continuously trying to stay ahead

III COMPANY ANALYSIS

At the final stage of fundamental analysis the investor analyzes the company This analysis has two thrustsHow has the company performed vis-agrave-vis other similar companies and How has the company performed in comparison to earlier years It is imperative that one completes the politico economic analysis and the industry analysis before a company is analyzed because the companys performance at a period of time is to an extent a reflection of the economy the political situation and the industry What does one look at when analyzing a company The different issues regarding a company that should be examined are The Management

23

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The Company The Annual Report Ratios Cash flow

THE MANAGEMENT

The single most important factor one should consider when investing in a company and one often never considered is its management In India management can be broadlydivided in two types Family Management Professional Management

THE COMPANY

An aspect not necessarily examined during an analysis of fundamentals is the company A company may have made losses consecutively for two years or more and one may not wish to touch its shares - yet it may be a good company and worth purchasing into There are several factors one should look at

1 How a company is perceived by its competitorsOne of the key factors to ascertain is how a company is perceived by its competitors It is held in high regard Its management may be known for its maturity vision competence and aggressiveness The investor must ascertain the reason and then determine whetherthe reason will continue into the foreseeable future

2 Whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segmentAnother aspect that should be ascertained is whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segment When you invest in market leaders the risk is less Theshares of market leaders do not fall as quickly as those of other companies There is a magic to their name that would make individuals prefer to buy their products as opposed to others

3 Company PoliciesThe policy a company follows is also important What is its plans for growth What is its vision Every company has a life If it is allowed to live a normal life it will grow upto a point and then begin to level out and eventually die It is at the point of leveling out that it must be given new life This can give it renewed vigour and a new lease of life

4 Labour RelationsLabour relations are extremely important A company that has motivated industrious work force has high productivity and practically no disruption of work On the other hand a company that has bad industrial relations will lose several hundred mandays as a consequence of strikes and go slows

24

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

5 Where the company is located and where its factories are One must also consider where the companies Plants and Factories are located

THE ANNUAL REPORT

The primary and most important source of information about a company is its Annual Report By law this is prepared every year and distributed to the shareholders Annual Reports are usually very well presented A tremendous amount of data is given about the performance of a company over a period of time The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific partsA) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the Accounts

A The Directorrsquos ReportThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship 1 It enunciates the opinion of the directors on the state of the economy and the political situation vis-agrave-vis the company 2 Explains the performance and the financial results of the company in the period under review This is an extremely important part The results and operations of the various separate divisions are usually detailed and investors can determine the reasons for their good or bad performance3 The Directorrsquos Report details the companys plans for modernization expansion and diversification Without these a company will remain static and eventually decline4 Discusses the profit earned in the period under review and the dividend Recommended by the directors This paragraph should normally be read with some skepticism as the directors will always argue that the performance was satisfactory If adverse economic conditions are usually at fault 5 Elaborates on the directors views of the companys prospects in the future6 Discusses plans for new acquisition and investments An investor must intelligently evaluate the issues raised in a Directorrsquos Report Industry conditions and the managements knowledge of the business must be considered

B The Auditors ReportThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors Auditors are required to report whether the financial statements presented do in fact present a true and fair view of the state of the company Investors must remember that the auditors are their representatives and that they are required by law to point out if the financial statements are not true and fair

CFinancial Statements

25

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The published financial statements of a company in an Annual Report consist of its Balance Sheet as at the end of the accounting period detailing the financing condition of the company at that date and the Profit and Loss Account or Income Statement summarizing the activities of the company for the accounting period

BALANCE SHEETThe Balance Sheet details the financial position of a company on a particular date of the companys assets (that which the company owns) and liabilities (that which the companyowes) grouped logically under specific heads It must however be noted that the Balance Sheet details the financial position on a particular day and that the position can be materially different on the next day or the day after

RATIOS

Ratios express mathematically the relationship between performance figures andor assetsliabilities in a form that can be easily understood and interpretedNo single ratio tells the complete storyRatios can be broken down into four broad categories

26

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(A) Profit and Loss RatiosThese show the relationship between two items or groups of items in a profit and loss account or income statement The more common of these ratios are1 Sales to cost of goods sold2 Selling expenses to sales3 Net profit to sales and4 Gross profit to sales

(B) Balance Sheet RatiosThese deal with the relationship in the balance sheet such as 1 Shareholders equity to borrowed funds2 Current assets to current liabilities3 Liabilities to net worth4 Debt to assets and5 Liabilities to assets

(C) Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Account RatiosThese relate an item on the balance sheet to another in the profit and loss account such as1 Earnings to shareholders funds2 Net income to assets employed3 Sales to stock4 Sales to debtors and5 Cost of goods sold to creditors

CHAPTER-4 ANALYSIS

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

I FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF STOCKS

Basically fundamental analysis is covered in 3 parts

1 Market economy analysis

2 Industry Analysis

3 Company Analysis

1) TATA MOTORS

I Market Economy Analysis

It covers the macro economy analysis and the various macro economic factors on the national level like GDP Monetary policies of India Fiscal Policies and Inflation and money supply etc

GDP

Real GDP growth accelerated from 75 per cent during 2004-05 to 84 per cent during

2005-06 on the back of buoyant manufacturing and services activity supported by a

recovery in the agricultural sector Real GDP growth has thus averaged over eight per

cent during the last three years and over seven per cent in the first four years (2002-03 to

2005-06) of the Tenth Five Year Plan

Strengths of India today are

30

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A well diversified industrial base which profits from self-reliance in all core industries A

large amp sophisticated financial architecture - The robust capital Markets today have over

9000 listed companies and boast of a massive Market capitalization

A healthy GDP composition with agriculture contributing 22 Industry 22 and

services which have gone strength to strength accounting For 56 of the GDP an

acknowledged strength in knowledge driven industries like Information technology

biotechnology entertainment Software etc

India has Over 3 million scientific amp technical manpower Over 06 million SampT post

graduates Over 07 million graduate engineers Over 3500 doctorates in sciences every

year

Assuming trend growth in agriculture under normal monsoon conditions and barring

domestic or external shocks the Reserve Bank in its Annual Policy Statement for 2007-

08 (April 2007) placed real GDP growth for policy purposes in the range of 75-80 per

cent during 2007-08 Growth prospects are however subject to a number of downside

risks The risks emanating from the global economy are potential escalation and

volatility in international crude oil prices firming up of overall inflationary pressures and

expectations and a hardening of international interest rates along with the withdrawal of

monetary accommodation

Indiarsquos demographic advantage ndash In contrast to developed Countries India will have a

younger population for the next 50 years Hence India would be the hub for RampD

Inflation

Inflation was contained to 63 per cent by end-March 2007 within the indicative

trajectory of 50-55 per cent during 2007-08 The actual inflation was considerably lower

than the indicative trajectory and this could be mainly attributed to the deferred pass-

through of even the cognisable permanent component of international crude oil prices

Money Supply

31

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Monetary and liquidity conditions remained largely comfortable during 2006-07reflecting

proactive liquidity management operations by the Reserve Bank under the liquidity

adjustment facility flexible management of issuances under the market stabilisation

scheme and some private placement of Government securities

In short the Indian economy is exhibiting strong fundamentals and displaying

considerable resilience At the same time there are continuing signs of demand pressures

especially high credit growth that could exert upward pressure on prices when associated

with supply shocks such as from oil These pressures have the potential for impacting

stability and inflation expectations While domestic developments continue to dominate

the economy global factors tend to gain more attention now than before The global

outlook for growth is positive but downside risks in regard to inflation also RBI is

applying new repo and reverse repo for the balance of inflation and monetary policies

The following are macroeconomic policies generally found as part of government-

directed industrial auto policies

(a) Restrictions on domestic and foreign investment

(b) Domestic content requirements

(c) High tariff walls

(d) Auto export requirements

(e) National production to sales ratios

(f) Distribution controls

(g) Quotas and licensing requirements that significantly restrict imports

(h) Government approval for product related decisions including vehicle make

body type engine size etc

(i) Special government categories for auto taxes

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry Today it is

amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output multiplier of

224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy) In recent

32

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

years we have seen increasing number of global players entering Indian market by way of

Joint ventures collaborations or wholly owned subsidiary

The automobile industry is torn between trying to reduce costs on the one hand and on

the other dealing with the high price of performance-enhancing technology and

environmental compliance Key drivers in the automotive industry are

Reducing air pollution

Reduction of weight

Recyclability

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

The automobile market is at the maturity stage of the life cycle locally and globally due

to an increased number of competitors from domestic and foreign markets The

automobile market is characterized by a low potential for market growth but high sales

and profit potential as the products have still not saturated the market as a whole

Opportunities and Threats

a) Opportunities

Road Development The ongoing road development program would improve

connectivity to ports cities and villages through a network of highways and

interconnecting roads by 2010-11 Improved road network would help in faster

34

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

movement of goods between various cities and towns The Company launched TATA

Novus range of vehicles in the heavy segment and TATA ACE for last mile distribution

Car penetration in India Car penetration in India is 7 cars per 1000 persons

International In FY 2006-07 the Company increased share of its overseas vehicle sales

from 76 last year to record high of 111 (as of its total sales) and has planned

further increase in this year

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

PORTERrsquoS MODEL

43

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

SWOT ANALYSIS

STRENGHS

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

COMPANY ANALYSIS

The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific parts

A) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the AccountsATHE DIRECTORrsquoS REPORTThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship Fundamental AnalysisB THE AUDITORS REPORTThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors

C FINANCIAL STATEMENTSIt comprises of Balance Sheet Profit and Loss account Cash Flows Its analysis would be discussed later

DSCHEDULESThe schedules detail pertinent information about the items of Balance Sheet and Profit amp Loss Account It also details information about sales manufacturing costs administration costs interest and other income and expenses

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

78

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

ADVANCEDECLINE LINE The ldquoadvancedecline linerdquo shows for some period the cumulative difference between advancing and declining issues

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 sharesHI-LO-CLOSE CHART A hi-lo-close chart is a bar chart showing for each day the

high price low price and closing price

CANDESTICK CHART A candlestick chart is an extended version of the hi-lo-close chart It plots the high low open and closing prices and also shows whether the closing price was above or below the opening price

POINT AND FIGURE CHARTS Point-and-figure charts are a way of showing only major price moves and their direction A ldquomajorrdquo up move is marked with an ldquoXrdquo while a ldquomajorrdquo down move is marked with an ldquoOrdquo A new column starts every time there is a change in direction

HEAD AND SHOULDERS FORMATION Once a chart is drawn technical analysts examine it for various formations or pattern types in an attempt to predict stock price or market direction in the case of head-and-shoulders formation

ODD-LOT The ldquoodd-lotrdquo indicator looks at whether odd-lot purchases are up or down

HEMLINE Followers of the ldquohemlinerdquo indicator claim that hemlines tend to rise in good times

SUPER BOWL The Super Bowl indicator forecasts the direction of the market based on whether the National Football Conference or the American Football Conference wins

BETA Beta is a risk measure comparing the volatility of a stocks price movement to the general market

MOMENTUM Momentum measures the speed of price change and provides a leading indicator of changes in trend

11 INTRODUCTION

Investing like marriage isnt something that should be entered into lightly You wouldnt

get married on a first date would you Ok maybe some of us would but thats not really

very Foolish Before we marry er I mean invest in a company there are more than a

few things we need to know about it

Securities Analysis

An analysis of securities and the organization and operation of their markets The determination of the risk reward structure of equity and debt securities and their valuation Special emphasis on common stocks Other topics include options mutual fluids and technical analysis

Technical analysis is a method of predicting price movements and future market trends by studying charts of past market action which take into account price of instruments volume of trading and where applicable open interest in the instruments

Fundamental analysis is a method of forecasting the future price movements of a financial instrument based on economic political environmental and other relevant factors and statistics that will affect the basic supply and demand of whatever underlies the financial instrument

Main differences between the two types of analysis

Fundamental analysis Technical analysis

Focuses on what ought to happen in a market

Focuses on what actually happens in a market

Factors involved in price analysis

1 Supply and demand 2 Seasonal cycles 3 Weather 4 Government policy

Charts are based on market action involving

1 Price2 Volume3 Open interest (futures only)

12 RATIONALE FOR THE STUDY

In an industry plagued with skepticism and a stock market increasingly difficult to predict

and contend with if one looks hard enough there may still be a genuine aid for the Day

Trader and Short Term Investor

The price of a security represents a consensus It is the price at which one person agrees

to buy and another agrees to sell The price at which an investor is willing to buy or sell

depends primarily on his expectations If he expects the securitys price to rise he will

buy it if the investor expects the price to fall he will sell it These simple statements are

the cause of a major challenge in forecasting security prices because they refer to human

expectations As we all know firsthand humans expectations are neither easily

quantifiable nor predictable

If prices are based on investor expectations then knowing what a security should sell for

(ie fundamental analysis) becomes less important than knowing what other investors

expect it to sell for Thats not to say that knowing what a security should sell for isnt

important--it is But there is usually a fairly strong consensus of a stocks future earnings

that the average investor cannot disprove

Fundamental analysis and technical analysis can co-exist in peace and complement each other Since

all the investors in the stock market want to make the maximum profits possible they just cannot

afford to ignore either fundamental or technical analysis

13 OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY

Primary Objective a) To do technical and fundamental analysis of chosen securities

Sub-Objectives

a) to study the various theories of technical analysis and fundamental analysis

b) understand the movement and performance of stocks

c) understanding and analyzing the factors that affect the movement of stock

prices in the Indian Stock Markets

14 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY amp DESIGN

TYPE OF STUDY

The research has been based on secondary data analysis The study has been exploratory

as it aims at examining the secondary data for analyzing the previous researches that have

been done in the area of technical and fundamental analysis of stocks The knowledge

thus gained from this preliminary study forms the basis for the further detailed

Descriptive research In the exploratory study the various technical indicators that are

important for analyzing stock were actually identified and important ones short listed

SAMPLE DESIGN

The sample of the stocks for the purpose of collecting secondary data has been selected

on the basis of Random Sampling The stocks are chosen in an unbiased manner and each

stock is chosen independent of the other stocks chosen

SAMPLE SIZE

The sample size for the number of stocks is taken as 10 for technical analysis and 4 for

fundamental analysis of stocks as fundamental analysis is very exhaustive and requires

detailed study

Technical analysis can be conditionally divided into some main parts such as

Types of charts Graphical methods Analytical methods Technical indicators

Technical analysis is concerned with predicting future price trends from historical price and volume data The underlying axiom of technical analysis is that all fundamentals (including expectations) are factored into the market and are reflected in exchange rates

A technical analysis is based on three axioms

Movement of the market considers everything Movement of prices is purposeful History repeats itself

SUPPORT AND RESISTANCE

Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

Resistance on the other hand is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher The price at which a trade takes place is the price at which a bull and bear agree to do business It represents the consensus of their expectations

10

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Support levels indicate the price where the most of investors believe that prices will move higher Resistance levels indicate the price at which the most of investors feel prices will move lower

Role Reversal

When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

31 DOW THEORYndash TRENDS

The ideas of Charles Dow the first editor of the Wall Street Journal form the basis of technical analysis The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages Dow created the Industrial Average of top blue chip stocks and a second average of top railroad stocks (now the Transport Average) He believed that the behavior of the averages reflected the hopes and fears of the entire market The behavior patterns that he observed apply to markets throughout the world

Three Movements

Markets fluctuate in more than one time frame at the same time

11

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Nothing is more certain than that the market has three well defined movements which fit into each other

The first is the daily variation due to local causes and the balance of buying and

selling at that particular time

The secondary movement covers a period ranging from ten days to sixty days

averaging probably between thirty and forty days

The third move is the great swing covering from four to six years

Bull markets are broad upward movements of the market that may last several

years interrupted by secondary reactions Bear markets are long declines

interrupted by secondary rallies These movements are referred to as the primary

trend

Secondary movements normally retrace from one third to two thirds of the

primary trend since the previous secondary movement

Daily fluctuations are important for short-term trading but are unimportant in

analysis of broad market movements

Various cycles have subsequently been identified within these broad categories

Primary Movements have Three Phases

The general conditions in the market

Bull markets

Bull markets commence with reviving confidence as business conditions improve

Prices rise as the market responds to improved earnings

12

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Rampant speculation dominates the market and price advances are based on hopes and

expectations rather than actual results

Bear markets

Bear markets start with abandonment of the hopes and expectations that sustained

inflated prices

Prices decline in response to disappointing earnings

Distress selling follows as speculators attempt to close out their positions and

securities are sold without regard to their true value

Ranging Markets

A secondary reaction may take the form of a lsquolinersquo which may endure for several weeks Price fluctuates within a narrow range of about five per cent

Breakouts from a range can occur in either direction

Advances above the upper limit of the line signal accumulation and higher prices

Declines below the lower limit indicate distribution and lower prices

Volume is used to confirm price breakouts

Trends

Bull Trends

A bull trend is identified by a series of rallies where each rally exceeds the highest point of the previous rally The decline between rallies ends above the lowest point of the previous decline

Successive higher highs and higher lows

13

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

Start = higher Low + break above previous High

The end is signaled by a lower high (peak) followed by a decline below the previous low (trough)

End = lower High + break below previous Low

A bear trend starts at the end of a bull trend when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

Large Corrections

A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

14

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A bull trend starts when price rallies above the previous high

A bull trend ends when price declines below the previous low

A bear trend starts at the end of a bull trend (and vice versa)

32 ELLIOT WAVES THEORY BASICS

TRENDLINES

Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations (which causes supplydemand lines to shift)

15

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

An Uptrend is defined by successively higher low-prices A rising trend can be thought of as a rising support level the bulls are in control and are pushing prices higher A Downtrend is defined by successively lower high-prices A falling trend can be thought of as a falling resistance level the bears are in control and are pushing prices lower

33 MOVING AVERAGES

Moving averages are one of the oldest and most popular technical analysis tools A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument over a given time

The moving average represents the consensus of investorrsquos expectations over the indicated period of time

The classic interpretation of a moving average is to use it in observing changes in prices Investors typically buy when the price of an instrument rises above its moving average and sell when the it falls below its moving average

TECHNICAL INDICATORS

There is a vast number of elaborated technical indicators

16

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

MOVING AVERAGE ndashMA RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX mdash RSI The Relative Strength Index

Technical Indicator (RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100 When Wilder introduced the Relative Strength Index he recommended using a 14-day RSI Since then the 9-day and 25-day Relative Strength Index indicators have also gained popularity

ADVANCEDECLINE LINE The ldquoadvancedecline linerdquo shows for some period the cumulative difference between advancing and declining issues

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 shares

HI-LO-CLOSE CHART A hi-lo-close chart is a bar chart showing for each day the high price low price and closing price

CANDLESTICK CHART A candlestick chart is an extended version of the hi-lo-close chart It plots the high low open and closing prices and also shows whether the closing price was above or below the opening price

POINT AND FIGURE CHARTS Point-and-figure charts are a way of showing only major price moves and their direction A ldquomajorrdquo up move is marked with an ldquoXrdquo while a ldquomajorrdquo down move is marked with an ldquoOrdquo A new column starts every time there is a change in direction

HEAD AND SHOULDERS FORMATION Once a chart is drawn analysts examine it for various formations or pattern types in an attempt to predict stock price or market direction in the case of head-and-shoulders formation When the stock price ldquopierces the necklinerdquo after the right shoulder is finished itrsquos time to sell

ODD-LOT The ldquoodd-lotrdquo indicator looks at whether odd-lot purchases are up or down HEMLINE Followers of the ldquohemlinerdquo indicator claim that hemlines tend to rise in good times

SUPER BOWL The Super Bowl indicator forecasts the direction of the market based on whether the National Football Conference or the American Football Conference wins A win by the National Football Conference is bullish

BETA Beta is a risk measure comparing the volatility of a stocks price movement to the general market

17

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

MOMENTUM Momentum measures the speed of price change and provides a leading indicator of changes in trend

UPSIDEDOWNSIDE Measures of UpsideDownside separate the volumes for rising markets from those in falling markets Since volume is independent of price it makes a valuable tool for measuring the quality of a price trend

CHAPTER- 3

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS

A CONCEPTUAL OVERVIEW

18

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Fundamental analysis refers to the study of the core underlying elements that influence the economy of a particular entity It is a method of study that attempts to predict price action and market trends by analyzing economic indicators government policy and societal factors (to name just a few elements) within a business cycle framework

I ECONOMIC ANALYSIS

POLITICO-ECONOMIC ANALYSIS No industry or company can exist in isolation It may have splendid managers and a tremendous product However its sales and its costs are affected by factors some of which are beyond its control - the world economy price inflation taxes and a host of others It is important therefore to have an appreciation of the politico-economic factors that affect an industry and a company

The political equationA stable political environment is necessary for steady balanced growth If a country is ruled by a stable government which takes decisions for the long-term development of the country industry and companies will prosper Foreign Exchange ReservesA country needs foreign exchange reserves to meet its commitments pay for its imports and service foreign debts

Foreign Exchange RiskThis is a real risk and one must be cognizant of the effect of a revaluation or devaluation of the currency either in the home country or in the country the company deals in

Restrictive PracticesRestrictive practices or cartels imposed by countries can affect companies and industries crystallizing the exposure

Foreign Debt and the Balance of Trade

19

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Foreign debt especially if it is very large can be a tremendous burden on an economy India pays around $ 5 billion a year in principal repayments and interest payments InflationInflation has an enormous effect in the economy Within the country it erodes purchasing power As a consequence demand falls If the rate of inflation in the country from which a company imports is high then the cost of production in that country will automatically go up

The Threat of NationalizationThe threat of nationalization is a real threat in many countries ndash the fear that a company may become nationalized

Interest RatesA low interest rate stimulates investment and industry Conversely high interest rates result in higher cost of production and lower consumption

TaxationThe level of taxation in a country has a direct effect on the economy If tax rates are low people have more disposable income

Government PolicyGovernment policy has a direct impact on the economy A government that is perceived to be proindustry will attract investment

THE ECONOMIC CYCLE

It affects investment decisions employment demand and the profitability of companiesThe four stages of an economic cycle are DepressionRecoveryBoom Recession DepressionAt the time of depression demand is low and falling Inflation is high and so are interest rates Companies crippled by high borrowing and falling sales are forced to curtail production close down plants built at times of higher demand and let workers go

RecoveryDuring this phase the economy begins to recover Investment begins anew and the demand grows Companies begin to post profits Conspicuous spending begins once again

Boom

20

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

In the boom phase demand reaches an all time high Investment is also high Interest rates are low Gradually as time goes on supply begins to exceed the demand Prices that had been rising begin to stabilize and even fall There is an increase in demand Then as the boom period matures prices begin to rise again

RecessionThe economy slowly begins to downturn Demand starts falling Interest rates and inflation are high Companies start finding it difficult to sell their goods The economy slowly begins to downturn

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

The importance of industry analysis is now dawning on the Indian investor as never before

CycleThe first step in industry is to determine the cycle it is in or the stage of maturity of the industry All industries evolve through the following stages1 Entrepreneurial sunrise or nascent stage2 Expansion or growth stage3 Stabilization stagnation or maturity stage and4 Decline or sunset stage to properly establish itself In the early days it may actually make losses

The Entrepreneurial or Nascent Stage

21

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

At the first stage the industry is new and it can take some time for it to properly establish itself

The Expansion or Growth StageOnce the industry has established itself it enters a growth stage As the industry grows many new companies enter the industry

The Stabilization or Maturity StageAfter the halcyon days of growth an industry matures and stabilizes Rewards are low and so too is the risk Growth is moderate Though sales may increase they do so at a slower rate than before Products are more standardized and less innovative and there are several competitors

The Decline or Sunset StageFinally the industry declines This occurs when its products are no longer popular This may be on account of several factors such as a change in social habits The film and video industries

1 BARRIER TO ENTRYNew entrants increase the capacity in an industry and the inflow of funds The question that arises is how easy is it to enter an industry There are some barriers to entry

a) Economies of scaleb) Product differentiation c) Capital requirementd) Switching costse) Access to distribution channelsf) Cost disadvantages independent of scaleg) Government policyh) Expected retaliationj) International cartels

2 THE THREAT OF SUBSTITUTIONNew inventions are always taking place and new and better products replace existing ones An industry that can be replaced by substitutes or is threatened by substitutes is normally an industry one must be careful of investing in An industry where this occurs constantly is the packaging industry -bottles replaced by cans cans replaced by plastic bottles and the like To ward off the threat of substitution companies often have to spend large sums of money in advertising and promotion

3 BARGAINING POWER OF THE BUYERSIn an industry where buyers have control ie in a buyers market buyers are constantly forcing prices down demanding better services or higher quality and this often erodes profitability The factors one should check are whether

22

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

a) A particular buyer buys most of the products (large purchase volumes) If such buyers withdraw their patronage they can destroy an industry They can also force prices downb) Buyers can play one company against another to bring prices down

4 BARGAINING POWER FOR THE SUPPLIERSAn industry unduly controlled by its suppliers is also under threat This occurs whena) The suppliers have a monopoly or if there are few suppliersb) Suppliers control an essential c) Demand for the product exceeds d) The supplier supplies to various industriese) The switching costs are highf) The suppliers product does not have a substituteg) The suppliers product is an important input for the buyersh) The buyer is not important to the supplieri) The suppliers product is unique

5 RIVALRY AMONG COMPETITORSRivalry among competitors can cause an industry great harm This occurs mainly by price cuts heavy advertising additional high cost services or offers and the like This rivalry occurs mainly whena) There are many competitors and supply exceeds demand Companies resort to price cuts and advertise heavily in order to attract customers for their goodsb) The industry growth is slow and companies are competing with each other for a greater market sharec) The economy is in a recession and companies cut the price of their products and offer better service to stimulate demandd) There is lack of differentiation between the product of one company and that of another In such cases the buyer makes his choice on the basis of price or servicee) In some industries economies of scale will necessitate large additions to existing capacities in a company The increase in production could result in over capacity amp price cuttingf) Competitors may have very different strategies in selling their goods and in competing they may be continuously trying to stay ahead

III COMPANY ANALYSIS

At the final stage of fundamental analysis the investor analyzes the company This analysis has two thrustsHow has the company performed vis-agrave-vis other similar companies and How has the company performed in comparison to earlier years It is imperative that one completes the politico economic analysis and the industry analysis before a company is analyzed because the companys performance at a period of time is to an extent a reflection of the economy the political situation and the industry What does one look at when analyzing a company The different issues regarding a company that should be examined are The Management

23

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The Company The Annual Report Ratios Cash flow

THE MANAGEMENT

The single most important factor one should consider when investing in a company and one often never considered is its management In India management can be broadlydivided in two types Family Management Professional Management

THE COMPANY

An aspect not necessarily examined during an analysis of fundamentals is the company A company may have made losses consecutively for two years or more and one may not wish to touch its shares - yet it may be a good company and worth purchasing into There are several factors one should look at

1 How a company is perceived by its competitorsOne of the key factors to ascertain is how a company is perceived by its competitors It is held in high regard Its management may be known for its maturity vision competence and aggressiveness The investor must ascertain the reason and then determine whetherthe reason will continue into the foreseeable future

2 Whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segmentAnother aspect that should be ascertained is whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segment When you invest in market leaders the risk is less Theshares of market leaders do not fall as quickly as those of other companies There is a magic to their name that would make individuals prefer to buy their products as opposed to others

3 Company PoliciesThe policy a company follows is also important What is its plans for growth What is its vision Every company has a life If it is allowed to live a normal life it will grow upto a point and then begin to level out and eventually die It is at the point of leveling out that it must be given new life This can give it renewed vigour and a new lease of life

4 Labour RelationsLabour relations are extremely important A company that has motivated industrious work force has high productivity and practically no disruption of work On the other hand a company that has bad industrial relations will lose several hundred mandays as a consequence of strikes and go slows

24

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

5 Where the company is located and where its factories are One must also consider where the companies Plants and Factories are located

THE ANNUAL REPORT

The primary and most important source of information about a company is its Annual Report By law this is prepared every year and distributed to the shareholders Annual Reports are usually very well presented A tremendous amount of data is given about the performance of a company over a period of time The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific partsA) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the Accounts

A The Directorrsquos ReportThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship 1 It enunciates the opinion of the directors on the state of the economy and the political situation vis-agrave-vis the company 2 Explains the performance and the financial results of the company in the period under review This is an extremely important part The results and operations of the various separate divisions are usually detailed and investors can determine the reasons for their good or bad performance3 The Directorrsquos Report details the companys plans for modernization expansion and diversification Without these a company will remain static and eventually decline4 Discusses the profit earned in the period under review and the dividend Recommended by the directors This paragraph should normally be read with some skepticism as the directors will always argue that the performance was satisfactory If adverse economic conditions are usually at fault 5 Elaborates on the directors views of the companys prospects in the future6 Discusses plans for new acquisition and investments An investor must intelligently evaluate the issues raised in a Directorrsquos Report Industry conditions and the managements knowledge of the business must be considered

B The Auditors ReportThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors Auditors are required to report whether the financial statements presented do in fact present a true and fair view of the state of the company Investors must remember that the auditors are their representatives and that they are required by law to point out if the financial statements are not true and fair

CFinancial Statements

25

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The published financial statements of a company in an Annual Report consist of its Balance Sheet as at the end of the accounting period detailing the financing condition of the company at that date and the Profit and Loss Account or Income Statement summarizing the activities of the company for the accounting period

BALANCE SHEETThe Balance Sheet details the financial position of a company on a particular date of the companys assets (that which the company owns) and liabilities (that which the companyowes) grouped logically under specific heads It must however be noted that the Balance Sheet details the financial position on a particular day and that the position can be materially different on the next day or the day after

PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNTThe Profit and Loss account summarizes the activities of a company during an accounting period which may be a month a quarter six months a year or longer and the result achieved by the company It details the income earned by the company its cost and the resulting profit or loss It is in effect the performance appraisal not only of the company but also of its management- its competence foresight and ability to lead

RATIOS

Ratios express mathematically the relationship between performance figures andor assetsliabilities in a form that can be easily understood and interpretedNo single ratio tells the complete storyRatios can be broken down into four broad categories

26

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(A) Profit and Loss RatiosThese show the relationship between two items or groups of items in a profit and loss account or income statement The more common of these ratios are1 Sales to cost of goods sold2 Selling expenses to sales3 Net profit to sales and4 Gross profit to sales

(B) Balance Sheet RatiosThese deal with the relationship in the balance sheet such as 1 Shareholders equity to borrowed funds2 Current assets to current liabilities3 Liabilities to net worth4 Debt to assets and5 Liabilities to assets

(C) Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Account RatiosThese relate an item on the balance sheet to another in the profit and loss account such as1 Earnings to shareholders funds2 Net income to assets employed3 Sales to stock4 Sales to debtors and5 Cost of goods sold to creditors

(D) Financial Statements and Market RatiosThese are normally known as market ratios and are arrived at by relative financial figures to market prices1 Market value to earnings and2 Book value to market value(a) Market value(b) Earnings(c) Profitability(d) Liquidity(e) Leverage(f) Debt Service Capacity(g) Asset ManagementEfficiency(h) Margins

The major ratios that are considered(i) Market value(ii) Price- earnings ratio(iii) Market-to-book ratio(iv) Earnings(v) Earning per share(vi) Dividend per share

27

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(vii) Dividend payout ratio(viii) Leverage ratios(ix) Return on investmentstotal assets

CASH FLOW A statement of sources and uses begins with the profit for the year to which are added the increases in liability accounts (sources) and from which are reduced the increases in asset accounts (uses) The net result shows whether there has been an excess or deficit of funds and how this was financed Investors must examine a companys cash flow as it reveals exactly where the money came from how it was utilized Investors must be concerned if a company is financing either its inventories or paying dividends from borrowings without real growth as that shows deterioration

CHAPTER-4 ANALYSIS

29

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

I FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF STOCKS

Basically fundamental analysis is covered in 3 parts

1 Market economy analysis

2 Industry Analysis

3 Company Analysis

1) TATA MOTORS

I Market Economy Analysis

It covers the macro economy analysis and the various macro economic factors on the national level like GDP Monetary policies of India Fiscal Policies and Inflation and money supply etc

GDP

Real GDP growth accelerated from 75 per cent during 2004-05 to 84 per cent during

2005-06 on the back of buoyant manufacturing and services activity supported by a

recovery in the agricultural sector Real GDP growth has thus averaged over eight per

cent during the last three years and over seven per cent in the first four years (2002-03 to

2005-06) of the Tenth Five Year Plan

Strengths of India today are

30

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A well diversified industrial base which profits from self-reliance in all core industries A

large amp sophisticated financial architecture - The robust capital Markets today have over

9000 listed companies and boast of a massive Market capitalization

A healthy GDP composition with agriculture contributing 22 Industry 22 and

services which have gone strength to strength accounting For 56 of the GDP an

acknowledged strength in knowledge driven industries like Information technology

biotechnology entertainment Software etc

India has Over 3 million scientific amp technical manpower Over 06 million SampT post

graduates Over 07 million graduate engineers Over 3500 doctorates in sciences every

year

Assuming trend growth in agriculture under normal monsoon conditions and barring

domestic or external shocks the Reserve Bank in its Annual Policy Statement for 2007-

08 (April 2007) placed real GDP growth for policy purposes in the range of 75-80 per

cent during 2007-08 Growth prospects are however subject to a number of downside

risks The risks emanating from the global economy are potential escalation and

volatility in international crude oil prices firming up of overall inflationary pressures and

expectations and a hardening of international interest rates along with the withdrawal of

monetary accommodation

Indiarsquos demographic advantage ndash In contrast to developed Countries India will have a

younger population for the next 50 years Hence India would be the hub for RampD

Inflation

Inflation was contained to 63 per cent by end-March 2007 within the indicative

trajectory of 50-55 per cent during 2007-08 The actual inflation was considerably lower

than the indicative trajectory and this could be mainly attributed to the deferred pass-

through of even the cognisable permanent component of international crude oil prices

Money Supply

31

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Monetary and liquidity conditions remained largely comfortable during 2006-07reflecting

proactive liquidity management operations by the Reserve Bank under the liquidity

adjustment facility flexible management of issuances under the market stabilisation

scheme and some private placement of Government securities

In short the Indian economy is exhibiting strong fundamentals and displaying

considerable resilience At the same time there are continuing signs of demand pressures

especially high credit growth that could exert upward pressure on prices when associated

with supply shocks such as from oil These pressures have the potential for impacting

stability and inflation expectations While domestic developments continue to dominate

the economy global factors tend to gain more attention now than before The global

outlook for growth is positive but downside risks in regard to inflation also RBI is

applying new repo and reverse repo for the balance of inflation and monetary policies

The following are macroeconomic policies generally found as part of government-

directed industrial auto policies

(a) Restrictions on domestic and foreign investment

(b) Domestic content requirements

(c) High tariff walls

(d) Auto export requirements

(e) National production to sales ratios

(f) Distribution controls

(g) Quotas and licensing requirements that significantly restrict imports

(h) Government approval for product related decisions including vehicle make

body type engine size etc

(i) Special government categories for auto taxes

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry Today it is

amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output multiplier of

224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy) In recent

32

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

years we have seen increasing number of global players entering Indian market by way of

Joint ventures collaborations or wholly owned subsidiary

The automobile industry is torn between trying to reduce costs on the one hand and on

the other dealing with the high price of performance-enhancing technology and

environmental compliance Key drivers in the automotive industry are

Reducing air pollution

Reduction of weight

Recyclability

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

The automobile market is at the maturity stage of the life cycle locally and globally due

to an increased number of competitors from domestic and foreign markets The

automobile market is characterized by a low potential for market growth but high sales

and profit potential as the products have still not saturated the market as a whole

Opportunities and Threats

a) Opportunities

Road Development The ongoing road development program would improve

connectivity to ports cities and villages through a network of highways and

interconnecting roads by 2010-11 Improved road network would help in faster

34

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

movement of goods between various cities and towns The Company launched TATA

Novus range of vehicles in the heavy segment and TATA ACE for last mile distribution

Car penetration in India Car penetration in India is 7 cars per 1000 persons

International In FY 2006-07 the Company increased share of its overseas vehicle sales

from 76 last year to record high of 111 (as of its total sales) and has planned

further increase in this year

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

SWOT ANALYSIS

STRENGHS

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

11 INTRODUCTION

Investing like marriage isnt something that should be entered into lightly You wouldnt

get married on a first date would you Ok maybe some of us would but thats not really

very Foolish Before we marry er I mean invest in a company there are more than a

few things we need to know about it

Securities Analysis

An analysis of securities and the organization and operation of their markets The determination of the risk reward structure of equity and debt securities and their valuation Special emphasis on common stocks Other topics include options mutual fluids and technical analysis

Technical analysis is a method of predicting price movements and future market trends by studying charts of past market action which take into account price of instruments volume of trading and where applicable open interest in the instruments

Fundamental analysis is a method of forecasting the future price movements of a financial instrument based on economic political environmental and other relevant factors and statistics that will affect the basic supply and demand of whatever underlies the financial instrument

Main differences between the two types of analysis

Fundamental analysis Technical analysis

Focuses on what ought to happen in a market

Focuses on what actually happens in a market

Factors involved in price analysis

1 Supply and demand 2 Seasonal cycles 3 Weather 4 Government policy

Charts are based on market action involving

1 Price2 Volume3 Open interest (futures only)

12 RATIONALE FOR THE STUDY

In an industry plagued with skepticism and a stock market increasingly difficult to predict

and contend with if one looks hard enough there may still be a genuine aid for the Day

Trader and Short Term Investor

The price of a security represents a consensus It is the price at which one person agrees

to buy and another agrees to sell The price at which an investor is willing to buy or sell

depends primarily on his expectations If he expects the securitys price to rise he will

buy it if the investor expects the price to fall he will sell it These simple statements are

the cause of a major challenge in forecasting security prices because they refer to human

expectations As we all know firsthand humans expectations are neither easily

quantifiable nor predictable

If prices are based on investor expectations then knowing what a security should sell for

(ie fundamental analysis) becomes less important than knowing what other investors

expect it to sell for Thats not to say that knowing what a security should sell for isnt

important--it is But there is usually a fairly strong consensus of a stocks future earnings

that the average investor cannot disprove

Fundamental analysis and technical analysis can co-exist in peace and complement each other Since

all the investors in the stock market want to make the maximum profits possible they just cannot

afford to ignore either fundamental or technical analysis

13 OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY

Primary Objective a) To do technical and fundamental analysis of chosen securities

Sub-Objectives

a) to study the various theories of technical analysis and fundamental analysis

b) understand the movement and performance of stocks

c) understanding and analyzing the factors that affect the movement of stock

prices in the Indian Stock Markets

14 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY amp DESIGN

TYPE OF STUDY

The research has been based on secondary data analysis The study has been exploratory

as it aims at examining the secondary data for analyzing the previous researches that have

been done in the area of technical and fundamental analysis of stocks The knowledge

thus gained from this preliminary study forms the basis for the further detailed

Descriptive research In the exploratory study the various technical indicators that are

important for analyzing stock were actually identified and important ones short listed

SAMPLE DESIGN

The sample of the stocks for the purpose of collecting secondary data has been selected

on the basis of Random Sampling The stocks are chosen in an unbiased manner and each

stock is chosen independent of the other stocks chosen

SAMPLE SIZE

The sample size for the number of stocks is taken as 10 for technical analysis and 4 for

fundamental analysis of stocks as fundamental analysis is very exhaustive and requires

detailed study

CHAPTER- 2

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

A CONCEPTUAL OVERVIEW

9

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

Technical analysis can be conditionally divided into some main parts such as

Types of charts Graphical methods Analytical methods Technical indicators

Technical analysis is concerned with predicting future price trends from historical price and volume data The underlying axiom of technical analysis is that all fundamentals (including expectations) are factored into the market and are reflected in exchange rates

A technical analysis is based on three axioms

Movement of the market considers everything Movement of prices is purposeful History repeats itself

SUPPORT AND RESISTANCE

Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

Resistance on the other hand is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher The price at which a trade takes place is the price at which a bull and bear agree to do business It represents the consensus of their expectations

10

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Support levels indicate the price where the most of investors believe that prices will move higher Resistance levels indicate the price at which the most of investors feel prices will move lower

Role Reversal

When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

31 DOW THEORYndash TRENDS

The ideas of Charles Dow the first editor of the Wall Street Journal form the basis of technical analysis The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages Dow created the Industrial Average of top blue chip stocks and a second average of top railroad stocks (now the Transport Average) He believed that the behavior of the averages reflected the hopes and fears of the entire market The behavior patterns that he observed apply to markets throughout the world

Three Movements

Markets fluctuate in more than one time frame at the same time

11

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Nothing is more certain than that the market has three well defined movements which fit into each other

The first is the daily variation due to local causes and the balance of buying and

selling at that particular time

The secondary movement covers a period ranging from ten days to sixty days

averaging probably between thirty and forty days

The third move is the great swing covering from four to six years

Bull markets are broad upward movements of the market that may last several

years interrupted by secondary reactions Bear markets are long declines

interrupted by secondary rallies These movements are referred to as the primary

trend

Secondary movements normally retrace from one third to two thirds of the

primary trend since the previous secondary movement

Daily fluctuations are important for short-term trading but are unimportant in

analysis of broad market movements

Various cycles have subsequently been identified within these broad categories

Primary Movements have Three Phases

The general conditions in the market

Bull markets

Bull markets commence with reviving confidence as business conditions improve

Prices rise as the market responds to improved earnings

12

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Rampant speculation dominates the market and price advances are based on hopes and

expectations rather than actual results

Bear markets

Bear markets start with abandonment of the hopes and expectations that sustained

inflated prices

Prices decline in response to disappointing earnings

Distress selling follows as speculators attempt to close out their positions and

securities are sold without regard to their true value

Ranging Markets

A secondary reaction may take the form of a lsquolinersquo which may endure for several weeks Price fluctuates within a narrow range of about five per cent

Breakouts from a range can occur in either direction

Advances above the upper limit of the line signal accumulation and higher prices

Declines below the lower limit indicate distribution and lower prices

Volume is used to confirm price breakouts

Trends

Bull Trends

A bull trend is identified by a series of rallies where each rally exceeds the highest point of the previous rally The decline between rallies ends above the lowest point of the previous decline

Successive higher highs and higher lows

13

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

Start = higher Low + break above previous High

The end is signaled by a lower high (peak) followed by a decline below the previous low (trough)

End = lower High + break below previous Low

A bear trend starts at the end of a bull trend when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

Large Corrections

A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

14

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A bull trend starts when price rallies above the previous high

A bull trend ends when price declines below the previous low

A bear trend starts at the end of a bull trend (and vice versa)

32 ELLIOT WAVES THEORY BASICS

TRENDLINES

Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations (which causes supplydemand lines to shift)

15

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

An Uptrend is defined by successively higher low-prices A rising trend can be thought of as a rising support level the bulls are in control and are pushing prices higher A Downtrend is defined by successively lower high-prices A falling trend can be thought of as a falling resistance level the bears are in control and are pushing prices lower

33 MOVING AVERAGES

Moving averages are one of the oldest and most popular technical analysis tools A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument over a given time

The moving average represents the consensus of investorrsquos expectations over the indicated period of time

The classic interpretation of a moving average is to use it in observing changes in prices Investors typically buy when the price of an instrument rises above its moving average and sell when the it falls below its moving average

TECHNICAL INDICATORS

There is a vast number of elaborated technical indicators

CHAPTER- 3

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS

A CONCEPTUAL OVERVIEW

18

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Fundamental analysis refers to the study of the core underlying elements that influence the economy of a particular entity It is a method of study that attempts to predict price action and market trends by analyzing economic indicators government policy and societal factors (to name just a few elements) within a business cycle framework

I ECONOMIC ANALYSIS

POLITICO-ECONOMIC ANALYSIS No industry or company can exist in isolation It may have splendid managers and a tremendous product However its sales and its costs are affected by factors some of which are beyond its control - the world economy price inflation taxes and a host of others It is important therefore to have an appreciation of the politico-economic factors that affect an industry and a company

The political equationA stable political environment is necessary for steady balanced growth If a country is ruled by a stable government which takes decisions for the long-term development of the country industry and companies will prosper Foreign Exchange ReservesA country needs foreign exchange reserves to meet its commitments pay for its imports and service foreign debts

Foreign Exchange RiskThis is a real risk and one must be cognizant of the effect of a revaluation or devaluation of the currency either in the home country or in the country the company deals in

Restrictive PracticesRestrictive practices or cartels imposed by countries can affect companies and industries crystallizing the exposure

Foreign Debt and the Balance of Trade

19

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Foreign debt especially if it is very large can be a tremendous burden on an economy India pays around $ 5 billion a year in principal repayments and interest payments InflationInflation has an enormous effect in the economy Within the country it erodes purchasing power As a consequence demand falls If the rate of inflation in the country from which a company imports is high then the cost of production in that country will automatically go up

The Threat of NationalizationThe threat of nationalization is a real threat in many countries ndash the fear that a company may become nationalized

Interest RatesA low interest rate stimulates investment and industry Conversely high interest rates result in higher cost of production and lower consumption

TaxationThe level of taxation in a country has a direct effect on the economy If tax rates are low people have more disposable income

Government PolicyGovernment policy has a direct impact on the economy A government that is perceived to be proindustry will attract investment

THE ECONOMIC CYCLE

It affects investment decisions employment demand and the profitability of companiesThe four stages of an economic cycle are DepressionRecoveryBoom Recession DepressionAt the time of depression demand is low and falling Inflation is high and so are interest rates Companies crippled by high borrowing and falling sales are forced to curtail production close down plants built at times of higher demand and let workers go

RecoveryDuring this phase the economy begins to recover Investment begins anew and the demand grows Companies begin to post profits Conspicuous spending begins once again

Boom

20

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

In the boom phase demand reaches an all time high Investment is also high Interest rates are low Gradually as time goes on supply begins to exceed the demand Prices that had been rising begin to stabilize and even fall There is an increase in demand Then as the boom period matures prices begin to rise again

RecessionThe economy slowly begins to downturn Demand starts falling Interest rates and inflation are high Companies start finding it difficult to sell their goods The economy slowly begins to downturn

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

The importance of industry analysis is now dawning on the Indian investor as never before

CycleThe first step in industry is to determine the cycle it is in or the stage of maturity of the industry All industries evolve through the following stages1 Entrepreneurial sunrise or nascent stage2 Expansion or growth stage3 Stabilization stagnation or maturity stage and4 Decline or sunset stage to properly establish itself In the early days it may actually make losses

The Entrepreneurial or Nascent Stage

21

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

At the first stage the industry is new and it can take some time for it to properly establish itself

The Expansion or Growth StageOnce the industry has established itself it enters a growth stage As the industry grows many new companies enter the industry

The Stabilization or Maturity StageAfter the halcyon days of growth an industry matures and stabilizes Rewards are low and so too is the risk Growth is moderate Though sales may increase they do so at a slower rate than before Products are more standardized and less innovative and there are several competitors

The Decline or Sunset StageFinally the industry declines This occurs when its products are no longer popular This may be on account of several factors such as a change in social habits The film and video industries

1 BARRIER TO ENTRYNew entrants increase the capacity in an industry and the inflow of funds The question that arises is how easy is it to enter an industry There are some barriers to entry

a) Economies of scaleb) Product differentiation c) Capital requirementd) Switching costse) Access to distribution channelsf) Cost disadvantages independent of scaleg) Government policyh) Expected retaliationj) International cartels

2 THE THREAT OF SUBSTITUTIONNew inventions are always taking place and new and better products replace existing ones An industry that can be replaced by substitutes or is threatened by substitutes is normally an industry one must be careful of investing in An industry where this occurs constantly is the packaging industry -bottles replaced by cans cans replaced by plastic bottles and the like To ward off the threat of substitution companies often have to spend large sums of money in advertising and promotion

3 BARGAINING POWER OF THE BUYERSIn an industry where buyers have control ie in a buyers market buyers are constantly forcing prices down demanding better services or higher quality and this often erodes profitability The factors one should check are whether

22

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

a) A particular buyer buys most of the products (large purchase volumes) If such buyers withdraw their patronage they can destroy an industry They can also force prices downb) Buyers can play one company against another to bring prices down

4 BARGAINING POWER FOR THE SUPPLIERSAn industry unduly controlled by its suppliers is also under threat This occurs whena) The suppliers have a monopoly or if there are few suppliersb) Suppliers control an essential c) Demand for the product exceeds d) The supplier supplies to various industriese) The switching costs are highf) The suppliers product does not have a substituteg) The suppliers product is an important input for the buyersh) The buyer is not important to the supplieri) The suppliers product is unique

5 RIVALRY AMONG COMPETITORSRivalry among competitors can cause an industry great harm This occurs mainly by price cuts heavy advertising additional high cost services or offers and the like This rivalry occurs mainly whena) There are many competitors and supply exceeds demand Companies resort to price cuts and advertise heavily in order to attract customers for their goodsb) The industry growth is slow and companies are competing with each other for a greater market sharec) The economy is in a recession and companies cut the price of their products and offer better service to stimulate demandd) There is lack of differentiation between the product of one company and that of another In such cases the buyer makes his choice on the basis of price or servicee) In some industries economies of scale will necessitate large additions to existing capacities in a company The increase in production could result in over capacity amp price cuttingf) Competitors may have very different strategies in selling their goods and in competing they may be continuously trying to stay ahead

III COMPANY ANALYSIS

At the final stage of fundamental analysis the investor analyzes the company This analysis has two thrustsHow has the company performed vis-agrave-vis other similar companies and How has the company performed in comparison to earlier years It is imperative that one completes the politico economic analysis and the industry analysis before a company is analyzed because the companys performance at a period of time is to an extent a reflection of the economy the political situation and the industry What does one look at when analyzing a company The different issues regarding a company that should be examined are The Management

THE MANAGEMENT

The single most important factor one should consider when investing in a company and one often never considered is its management In India management can be broadlydivided in two types Family Management Professional Management

THE COMPANY

An aspect not necessarily examined during an analysis of fundamentals is the company A company may have made losses consecutively for two years or more and one may not wish to touch its shares - yet it may be a good company and worth purchasing into There are several factors one should look at

1 How a company is perceived by its competitorsOne of the key factors to ascertain is how a company is perceived by its competitors It is held in high regard Its management may be known for its maturity vision competence and aggressiveness The investor must ascertain the reason and then determine whetherthe reason will continue into the foreseeable future

2 Whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segmentAnother aspect that should be ascertained is whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segment When you invest in market leaders the risk is less Theshares of market leaders do not fall as quickly as those of other companies There is a magic to their name that would make individuals prefer to buy their products as opposed to others

3 Company PoliciesThe policy a company follows is also important What is its plans for growth What is its vision Every company has a life If it is allowed to live a normal life it will grow upto a point and then begin to level out and eventually die It is at the point of leveling out that it must be given new life This can give it renewed vigour and a new lease of life

4 Labour RelationsLabour relations are extremely important A company that has motivated industrious work force has high productivity and practically no disruption of work On the other hand a company that has bad industrial relations will lose several hundred mandays as a consequence of strikes and go slows

24

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

5 Where the company is located and where its factories are One must also consider where the companies Plants and Factories are located

THE ANNUAL REPORT

The primary and most important source of information about a company is its Annual Report By law this is prepared every year and distributed to the shareholders Annual Reports are usually very well presented A tremendous amount of data is given about the performance of a company over a period of time The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific partsA) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the Accounts

A The Directorrsquos ReportThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship 1 It enunciates the opinion of the directors on the state of the economy and the political situation vis-agrave-vis the company 2 Explains the performance and the financial results of the company in the period under review This is an extremely important part The results and operations of the various separate divisions are usually detailed and investors can determine the reasons for their good or bad performance3 The Directorrsquos Report details the companys plans for modernization expansion and diversification Without these a company will remain static and eventually decline4 Discusses the profit earned in the period under review and the dividend Recommended by the directors This paragraph should normally be read with some skepticism as the directors will always argue that the performance was satisfactory If adverse economic conditions are usually at fault 5 Elaborates on the directors views of the companys prospects in the future6 Discusses plans for new acquisition and investments An investor must intelligently evaluate the issues raised in a Directorrsquos Report Industry conditions and the managements knowledge of the business must be considered

B The Auditors ReportThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors Auditors are required to report whether the financial statements presented do in fact present a true and fair view of the state of the company Investors must remember that the auditors are their representatives and that they are required by law to point out if the financial statements are not true and fair

CFinancial Statements

25

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The published financial statements of a company in an Annual Report consist of its Balance Sheet as at the end of the accounting period detailing the financing condition of the company at that date and the Profit and Loss Account or Income Statement summarizing the activities of the company for the accounting period

BALANCE SHEETThe Balance Sheet details the financial position of a company on a particular date of the companys assets (that which the company owns) and liabilities (that which the companyowes) grouped logically under specific heads It must however be noted that the Balance Sheet details the financial position on a particular day and that the position can be materially different on the next day or the day after

PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNTThe Profit and Loss account summarizes the activities of a company during an accounting period which may be a month a quarter six months a year or longer and the result achieved by the company It details the income earned by the company its cost and the resulting profit or loss It is in effect the performance appraisal not only of the company but also of its management- its competence foresight and ability to lead

RATIOS

Ratios express mathematically the relationship between performance figures andor assetsliabilities in a form that can be easily understood and interpretedNo single ratio tells the complete storyRatios can be broken down into four broad categories

26

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(A) Profit and Loss RatiosThese show the relationship between two items or groups of items in a profit and loss account or income statement The more common of these ratios are1 Sales to cost of goods sold2 Selling expenses to sales3 Net profit to sales and4 Gross profit to sales

(B) Balance Sheet RatiosThese deal with the relationship in the balance sheet such as 1 Shareholders equity to borrowed funds2 Current assets to current liabilities3 Liabilities to net worth4 Debt to assets and5 Liabilities to assets

(C) Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Account RatiosThese relate an item on the balance sheet to another in the profit and loss account such as1 Earnings to shareholders funds2 Net income to assets employed3 Sales to stock4 Sales to debtors and5 Cost of goods sold to creditors

(D) Financial Statements and Market RatiosThese are normally known as market ratios and are arrived at by relative financial figures to market prices1 Market value to earnings and2 Book value to market value(a) Market value(b) Earnings(c) Profitability(d) Liquidity(e) Leverage(f) Debt Service Capacity(g) Asset ManagementEfficiency(h) Margins

(vii) Dividend payout ratio(viii) Leverage ratios(ix) Return on investmentstotal assets

CASH FLOW A statement of sources and uses begins with the profit for the year to which are added the increases in liability accounts (sources) and from which are reduced the increases in asset accounts (uses) The net result shows whether there has been an excess or deficit of funds and how this was financed Investors must examine a companys cash flow as it reveals exactly where the money came from how it was utilized Investors must be concerned if a company is financing either its inventories or paying dividends from borrowings without real growth as that shows deterioration

CHAPTER-4 ANALYSIS

29

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

I FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF STOCKS

Basically fundamental analysis is covered in 3 parts

1 Market economy analysis

2 Industry Analysis

3 Company Analysis

1) TATA MOTORS

I Market Economy Analysis

It covers the macro economy analysis and the various macro economic factors on the national level like GDP Monetary policies of India Fiscal Policies and Inflation and money supply etc

GDP

Real GDP growth accelerated from 75 per cent during 2004-05 to 84 per cent during

2005-06 on the back of buoyant manufacturing and services activity supported by a

recovery in the agricultural sector Real GDP growth has thus averaged over eight per

cent during the last three years and over seven per cent in the first four years (2002-03 to

2005-06) of the Tenth Five Year Plan

Strengths of India today are

30

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A well diversified industrial base which profits from self-reliance in all core industries A

large amp sophisticated financial architecture - The robust capital Markets today have over

9000 listed companies and boast of a massive Market capitalization

A healthy GDP composition with agriculture contributing 22 Industry 22 and

services which have gone strength to strength accounting For 56 of the GDP an

acknowledged strength in knowledge driven industries like Information technology

biotechnology entertainment Software etc

India has Over 3 million scientific amp technical manpower Over 06 million SampT post

graduates Over 07 million graduate engineers Over 3500 doctorates in sciences every

year

Assuming trend growth in agriculture under normal monsoon conditions and barring

domestic or external shocks the Reserve Bank in its Annual Policy Statement for 2007-

08 (April 2007) placed real GDP growth for policy purposes in the range of 75-80 per

cent during 2007-08 Growth prospects are however subject to a number of downside

risks The risks emanating from the global economy are potential escalation and

volatility in international crude oil prices firming up of overall inflationary pressures and

expectations and a hardening of international interest rates along with the withdrawal of

monetary accommodation

Indiarsquos demographic advantage ndash In contrast to developed Countries India will have a

younger population for the next 50 years Hence India would be the hub for RampD

Inflation

Inflation was contained to 63 per cent by end-March 2007 within the indicative

trajectory of 50-55 per cent during 2007-08 The actual inflation was considerably lower

than the indicative trajectory and this could be mainly attributed to the deferred pass-

through of even the cognisable permanent component of international crude oil prices

Money Supply

31

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Monetary and liquidity conditions remained largely comfortable during 2006-07reflecting

proactive liquidity management operations by the Reserve Bank under the liquidity

adjustment facility flexible management of issuances under the market stabilisation

scheme and some private placement of Government securities

In short the Indian economy is exhibiting strong fundamentals and displaying

considerable resilience At the same time there are continuing signs of demand pressures

especially high credit growth that could exert upward pressure on prices when associated

with supply shocks such as from oil These pressures have the potential for impacting

stability and inflation expectations While domestic developments continue to dominate

the economy global factors tend to gain more attention now than before The global

outlook for growth is positive but downside risks in regard to inflation also RBI is

applying new repo and reverse repo for the balance of inflation and monetary policies

The following are macroeconomic policies generally found as part of government-

directed industrial auto policies

(a) Restrictions on domestic and foreign investment

(b) Domestic content requirements

(c) High tariff walls

(d) Auto export requirements

(e) National production to sales ratios

(f) Distribution controls

(g) Quotas and licensing requirements that significantly restrict imports

(h) Government approval for product related decisions including vehicle make

body type engine size etc

(i) Special government categories for auto taxes

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry Today it is

amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output multiplier of

224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy) In recent

32

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

years we have seen increasing number of global players entering Indian market by way of

Joint ventures collaborations or wholly owned subsidiary

The automobile industry is torn between trying to reduce costs on the one hand and on

the other dealing with the high price of performance-enhancing technology and

environmental compliance Key drivers in the automotive industry are

Reducing air pollution

Reduction of weight

Recyclability

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

The automobile market is at the maturity stage of the life cycle locally and globally due

to an increased number of competitors from domestic and foreign markets The

automobile market is characterized by a low potential for market growth but high sales

and profit potential as the products have still not saturated the market as a whole

Opportunities and Threats

a) Opportunities

Road Development The ongoing road development program would improve

connectivity to ports cities and villages through a network of highways and

interconnecting roads by 2010-11 Improved road network would help in faster

34

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

movement of goods between various cities and towns The Company launched TATA

Novus range of vehicles in the heavy segment and TATA ACE for last mile distribution

Car penetration in India Car penetration in India is 7 cars per 1000 persons

International In FY 2006-07 the Company increased share of its overseas vehicle sales

from 76 last year to record high of 111 (as of its total sales) and has planned

further increase in this year

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

PORTERrsquoS MODEL

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

COMPANY ANALYSIS

The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific parts

A) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the AccountsATHE DIRECTORrsquoS REPORTThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship Fundamental AnalysisB THE AUDITORS REPORTThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors

DSCHEDULESThe schedules detail pertinent information about the items of Balance Sheet and Profit amp Loss Account It also details information about sales manufacturing costs administration costs interest and other income and expenses

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

GLOSSARY

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

78

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

ADVANCEDECLINE LINE The ldquoadvancedecline linerdquo shows for some period the cumulative difference between advancing and declining issues

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 sharesHI-LO-CLOSE CHART A hi-lo-close chart is a bar chart showing for each day the

high price low price and closing price

CANDESTICK CHART A candlestick chart is an extended version of the hi-lo-close chart It plots the high low open and closing prices and also shows whether the closing price was above or below the opening price

POINT AND FIGURE CHARTS Point-and-figure charts are a way of showing only major price moves and their direction A ldquomajorrdquo up move is marked with an ldquoXrdquo while a ldquomajorrdquo down move is marked with an ldquoOrdquo A new column starts every time there is a change in direction

HEAD AND SHOULDERS FORMATION Once a chart is drawn technical analysts examine it for various formations or pattern types in an attempt to predict stock price or market direction in the case of head-and-shoulders formation

ODD-LOT The ldquoodd-lotrdquo indicator looks at whether odd-lot purchases are up or down

HEMLINE Followers of the ldquohemlinerdquo indicator claim that hemlines tend to rise in good times

SUPER BOWL The Super Bowl indicator forecasts the direction of the market based on whether the National Football Conference or the American Football Conference wins

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

11 INTRODUCTION

Investing like marriage isnt something that should be entered into lightly You wouldnt

get married on a first date would you Ok maybe some of us would but thats not really

very Foolish Before we marry er I mean invest in a company there are more than a

few things we need to know about it

Securities Analysis

An analysis of securities and the organization and operation of their markets The determination of the risk reward structure of equity and debt securities and their valuation Special emphasis on common stocks Other topics include options mutual fluids and technical analysis

Technical analysis is a method of predicting price movements and future market trends by studying charts of past market action which take into account price of instruments volume of trading and where applicable open interest in the instruments

Fundamental analysis is a method of forecasting the future price movements of a financial instrument based on economic political environmental and other relevant factors and statistics that will affect the basic supply and demand of whatever underlies the financial instrument

Main differences between the two types of analysis

Fundamental analysis Technical analysis

Focuses on what ought to happen in a market

Focuses on what actually happens in a market

Factors involved in price analysis

1 Supply and demand 2 Seasonal cycles 3 Weather 4 Government policy

Charts are based on market action involving

1 Price2 Volume3 Open interest (futures only)

12 RATIONALE FOR THE STUDY

In an industry plagued with skepticism and a stock market increasingly difficult to predict

and contend with if one looks hard enough there may still be a genuine aid for the Day

Trader and Short Term Investor

The price of a security represents a consensus It is the price at which one person agrees

to buy and another agrees to sell The price at which an investor is willing to buy or sell

depends primarily on his expectations If he expects the securitys price to rise he will

buy it if the investor expects the price to fall he will sell it These simple statements are

the cause of a major challenge in forecasting security prices because they refer to human

expectations As we all know firsthand humans expectations are neither easily

quantifiable nor predictable

If prices are based on investor expectations then knowing what a security should sell for

(ie fundamental analysis) becomes less important than knowing what other investors

expect it to sell for Thats not to say that knowing what a security should sell for isnt

important--it is But there is usually a fairly strong consensus of a stocks future earnings

that the average investor cannot disprove

Fundamental analysis and technical analysis can co-exist in peace and complement each other Since

all the investors in the stock market want to make the maximum profits possible they just cannot

afford to ignore either fundamental or technical analysis

13 OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY

Primary Objective a) To do technical and fundamental analysis of chosen securities

Sub-Objectives

a) to study the various theories of technical analysis and fundamental analysis

b) understand the movement and performance of stocks

c) understanding and analyzing the factors that affect the movement of stock

prices in the Indian Stock Markets

14 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY amp DESIGN

TYPE OF STUDY

The research has been based on secondary data analysis The study has been exploratory

as it aims at examining the secondary data for analyzing the previous researches that have

been done in the area of technical and fundamental analysis of stocks The knowledge

thus gained from this preliminary study forms the basis for the further detailed

Descriptive research In the exploratory study the various technical indicators that are

important for analyzing stock were actually identified and important ones short listed

SAMPLE DESIGN

The sample of the stocks for the purpose of collecting secondary data has been selected

on the basis of Random Sampling The stocks are chosen in an unbiased manner and each

stock is chosen independent of the other stocks chosen

SAMPLE SIZE

The sample size for the number of stocks is taken as 10 for technical analysis and 4 for

fundamental analysis of stocks as fundamental analysis is very exhaustive and requires

detailed study

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

A CONCEPTUAL OVERVIEW

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

Technical analysis can be conditionally divided into some main parts such as

Types of charts Graphical methods Analytical methods Technical indicators

Technical analysis is concerned with predicting future price trends from historical price and volume data The underlying axiom of technical analysis is that all fundamentals (including expectations) are factored into the market and are reflected in exchange rates

A technical analysis is based on three axioms

Movement of the market considers everything Movement of prices is purposeful History repeats itself

SUPPORT AND RESISTANCE

Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

Resistance on the other hand is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher The price at which a trade takes place is the price at which a bull and bear agree to do business It represents the consensus of their expectations

10

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Support levels indicate the price where the most of investors believe that prices will move higher Resistance levels indicate the price at which the most of investors feel prices will move lower

Role Reversal

When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

31 DOW THEORYndash TRENDS

The ideas of Charles Dow the first editor of the Wall Street Journal form the basis of technical analysis The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages Dow created the Industrial Average of top blue chip stocks and a second average of top railroad stocks (now the Transport Average) He believed that the behavior of the averages reflected the hopes and fears of the entire market The behavior patterns that he observed apply to markets throughout the world

Three Movements

Markets fluctuate in more than one time frame at the same time

11

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Nothing is more certain than that the market has three well defined movements which fit into each other

The first is the daily variation due to local causes and the balance of buying and

selling at that particular time

The secondary movement covers a period ranging from ten days to sixty days

averaging probably between thirty and forty days

The third move is the great swing covering from four to six years

Bull markets are broad upward movements of the market that may last several

years interrupted by secondary reactions Bear markets are long declines

interrupted by secondary rallies These movements are referred to as the primary

trend

Secondary movements normally retrace from one third to two thirds of the

primary trend since the previous secondary movement

Daily fluctuations are important for short-term trading but are unimportant in

analysis of broad market movements

Various cycles have subsequently been identified within these broad categories

Primary Movements have Three Phases

The general conditions in the market

Bull markets

Bull markets commence with reviving confidence as business conditions improve

Prices rise as the market responds to improved earnings

12

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Rampant speculation dominates the market and price advances are based on hopes and

expectations rather than actual results

Bear markets

Bear markets start with abandonment of the hopes and expectations that sustained

inflated prices

Prices decline in response to disappointing earnings

Distress selling follows as speculators attempt to close out their positions and

securities are sold without regard to their true value

Ranging Markets

A secondary reaction may take the form of a lsquolinersquo which may endure for several weeks Price fluctuates within a narrow range of about five per cent

Breakouts from a range can occur in either direction

Advances above the upper limit of the line signal accumulation and higher prices

Declines below the lower limit indicate distribution and lower prices

Volume is used to confirm price breakouts

Trends

Bull Trends

A bull trend is identified by a series of rallies where each rally exceeds the highest point of the previous rally The decline between rallies ends above the lowest point of the previous decline

Successive higher highs and higher lows

13

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

Start = higher Low + break above previous High

The end is signaled by a lower high (peak) followed by a decline below the previous low (trough)

End = lower High + break below previous Low

A bear trend starts at the end of a bull trend when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

Large Corrections

A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

14

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A bull trend starts when price rallies above the previous high

A bull trend ends when price declines below the previous low

A bear trend starts at the end of a bull trend (and vice versa)

32 ELLIOT WAVES THEORY BASICS

TRENDLINES

Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations (which causes supplydemand lines to shift)

15

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

An Uptrend is defined by successively higher low-prices A rising trend can be thought of as a rising support level the bulls are in control and are pushing prices higher A Downtrend is defined by successively lower high-prices A falling trend can be thought of as a falling resistance level the bears are in control and are pushing prices lower

33 MOVING AVERAGES

Moving averages are one of the oldest and most popular technical analysis tools A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument over a given time

The moving average represents the consensus of investorrsquos expectations over the indicated period of time

The classic interpretation of a moving average is to use it in observing changes in prices Investors typically buy when the price of an instrument rises above its moving average and sell when the it falls below its moving average

TECHNICAL INDICATORS

There is a vast number of elaborated technical indicators

16

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

MOVING AVERAGE ndashMA RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX mdash RSI The Relative Strength Index

Technical Indicator (RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100 When Wilder introduced the Relative Strength Index he recommended using a 14-day RSI Since then the 9-day and 25-day Relative Strength Index indicators have also gained popularity

ADVANCEDECLINE LINE The ldquoadvancedecline linerdquo shows for some period the cumulative difference between advancing and declining issues

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 shares

HI-LO-CLOSE CHART A hi-lo-close chart is a bar chart showing for each day the high price low price and closing price

CANDLESTICK CHART A candlestick chart is an extended version of the hi-lo-close chart It plots the high low open and closing prices and also shows whether the closing price was above or below the opening price

POINT AND FIGURE CHARTS Point-and-figure charts are a way of showing only major price moves and their direction A ldquomajorrdquo up move is marked with an ldquoXrdquo while a ldquomajorrdquo down move is marked with an ldquoOrdquo A new column starts every time there is a change in direction

HEAD AND SHOULDERS FORMATION Once a chart is drawn analysts examine it for various formations or pattern types in an attempt to predict stock price or market direction in the case of head-and-shoulders formation When the stock price ldquopierces the necklinerdquo after the right shoulder is finished itrsquos time to sell

ODD-LOT The ldquoodd-lotrdquo indicator looks at whether odd-lot purchases are up or down HEMLINE Followers of the ldquohemlinerdquo indicator claim that hemlines tend to rise in good times

SUPER BOWL The Super Bowl indicator forecasts the direction of the market based on whether the National Football Conference or the American Football Conference wins A win by the National Football Conference is bullish

BETA Beta is a risk measure comparing the volatility of a stocks price movement to the general market

17

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

MOMENTUM Momentum measures the speed of price change and provides a leading indicator of changes in trend

UPSIDEDOWNSIDE Measures of UpsideDownside separate the volumes for rising markets from those in falling markets Since volume is independent of price it makes a valuable tool for measuring the quality of a price trend

CHAPTER- 3

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS

A CONCEPTUAL OVERVIEW

18

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Fundamental analysis refers to the study of the core underlying elements that influence the economy of a particular entity It is a method of study that attempts to predict price action and market trends by analyzing economic indicators government policy and societal factors (to name just a few elements) within a business cycle framework

I ECONOMIC ANALYSIS

POLITICO-ECONOMIC ANALYSIS No industry or company can exist in isolation It may have splendid managers and a tremendous product However its sales and its costs are affected by factors some of which are beyond its control - the world economy price inflation taxes and a host of others It is important therefore to have an appreciation of the politico-economic factors that affect an industry and a company

The political equationA stable political environment is necessary for steady balanced growth If a country is ruled by a stable government which takes decisions for the long-term development of the country industry and companies will prosper Foreign Exchange ReservesA country needs foreign exchange reserves to meet its commitments pay for its imports and service foreign debts

Foreign Exchange RiskThis is a real risk and one must be cognizant of the effect of a revaluation or devaluation of the currency either in the home country or in the country the company deals in

Restrictive PracticesRestrictive practices or cartels imposed by countries can affect companies and industries crystallizing the exposure

Foreign Debt and the Balance of Trade

19

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Foreign debt especially if it is very large can be a tremendous burden on an economy India pays around $ 5 billion a year in principal repayments and interest payments InflationInflation has an enormous effect in the economy Within the country it erodes purchasing power As a consequence demand falls If the rate of inflation in the country from which a company imports is high then the cost of production in that country will automatically go up

The Threat of NationalizationThe threat of nationalization is a real threat in many countries ndash the fear that a company may become nationalized

Interest RatesA low interest rate stimulates investment and industry Conversely high interest rates result in higher cost of production and lower consumption

TaxationThe level of taxation in a country has a direct effect on the economy If tax rates are low people have more disposable income

Government PolicyGovernment policy has a direct impact on the economy A government that is perceived to be proindustry will attract investment

THE ECONOMIC CYCLE

It affects investment decisions employment demand and the profitability of companiesThe four stages of an economic cycle are DepressionRecoveryBoom Recession DepressionAt the time of depression demand is low and falling Inflation is high and so are interest rates Companies crippled by high borrowing and falling sales are forced to curtail production close down plants built at times of higher demand and let workers go

RecoveryDuring this phase the economy begins to recover Investment begins anew and the demand grows Companies begin to post profits Conspicuous spending begins once again

Boom

20

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

In the boom phase demand reaches an all time high Investment is also high Interest rates are low Gradually as time goes on supply begins to exceed the demand Prices that had been rising begin to stabilize and even fall There is an increase in demand Then as the boom period matures prices begin to rise again

RecessionThe economy slowly begins to downturn Demand starts falling Interest rates and inflation are high Companies start finding it difficult to sell their goods The economy slowly begins to downturn

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

The importance of industry analysis is now dawning on the Indian investor as never before

CycleThe first step in industry is to determine the cycle it is in or the stage of maturity of the industry All industries evolve through the following stages1 Entrepreneurial sunrise or nascent stage2 Expansion or growth stage3 Stabilization stagnation or maturity stage and4 Decline or sunset stage to properly establish itself In the early days it may actually make losses

The Entrepreneurial or Nascent Stage

21

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

At the first stage the industry is new and it can take some time for it to properly establish itself

The Expansion or Growth StageOnce the industry has established itself it enters a growth stage As the industry grows many new companies enter the industry

The Stabilization or Maturity StageAfter the halcyon days of growth an industry matures and stabilizes Rewards are low and so too is the risk Growth is moderate Though sales may increase they do so at a slower rate than before Products are more standardized and less innovative and there are several competitors

The Decline or Sunset StageFinally the industry declines This occurs when its products are no longer popular This may be on account of several factors such as a change in social habits The film and video industries

1 BARRIER TO ENTRYNew entrants increase the capacity in an industry and the inflow of funds The question that arises is how easy is it to enter an industry There are some barriers to entry

a) Economies of scaleb) Product differentiation c) Capital requirementd) Switching costse) Access to distribution channelsf) Cost disadvantages independent of scaleg) Government policyh) Expected retaliationj) International cartels

2 THE THREAT OF SUBSTITUTIONNew inventions are always taking place and new and better products replace existing ones An industry that can be replaced by substitutes or is threatened by substitutes is normally an industry one must be careful of investing in An industry where this occurs constantly is the packaging industry -bottles replaced by cans cans replaced by plastic bottles and the like To ward off the threat of substitution companies often have to spend large sums of money in advertising and promotion

3 BARGAINING POWER OF THE BUYERSIn an industry where buyers have control ie in a buyers market buyers are constantly forcing prices down demanding better services or higher quality and this often erodes profitability The factors one should check are whether

22

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

a) A particular buyer buys most of the products (large purchase volumes) If such buyers withdraw their patronage they can destroy an industry They can also force prices downb) Buyers can play one company against another to bring prices down

4 BARGAINING POWER FOR THE SUPPLIERSAn industry unduly controlled by its suppliers is also under threat This occurs whena) The suppliers have a monopoly or if there are few suppliersb) Suppliers control an essential c) Demand for the product exceeds d) The supplier supplies to various industriese) The switching costs are highf) The suppliers product does not have a substituteg) The suppliers product is an important input for the buyersh) The buyer is not important to the supplieri) The suppliers product is unique

5 RIVALRY AMONG COMPETITORSRivalry among competitors can cause an industry great harm This occurs mainly by price cuts heavy advertising additional high cost services or offers and the like This rivalry occurs mainly whena) There are many competitors and supply exceeds demand Companies resort to price cuts and advertise heavily in order to attract customers for their goodsb) The industry growth is slow and companies are competing with each other for a greater market sharec) The economy is in a recession and companies cut the price of their products and offer better service to stimulate demandd) There is lack of differentiation between the product of one company and that of another In such cases the buyer makes his choice on the basis of price or servicee) In some industries economies of scale will necessitate large additions to existing capacities in a company The increase in production could result in over capacity amp price cuttingf) Competitors may have very different strategies in selling their goods and in competing they may be continuously trying to stay ahead

III COMPANY ANALYSIS

At the final stage of fundamental analysis the investor analyzes the company This analysis has two thrustsHow has the company performed vis-agrave-vis other similar companies and How has the company performed in comparison to earlier years It is imperative that one completes the politico economic analysis and the industry analysis before a company is analyzed because the companys performance at a period of time is to an extent a reflection of the economy the political situation and the industry What does one look at when analyzing a company The different issues regarding a company that should be examined are The Management

23

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The Company The Annual Report Ratios Cash flow

THE MANAGEMENT

The single most important factor one should consider when investing in a company and one often never considered is its management In India management can be broadlydivided in two types Family Management Professional Management

THE COMPANY

An aspect not necessarily examined during an analysis of fundamentals is the company A company may have made losses consecutively for two years or more and one may not wish to touch its shares - yet it may be a good company and worth purchasing into There are several factors one should look at

1 How a company is perceived by its competitorsOne of the key factors to ascertain is how a company is perceived by its competitors It is held in high regard Its management may be known for its maturity vision competence and aggressiveness The investor must ascertain the reason and then determine whetherthe reason will continue into the foreseeable future

2 Whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segmentAnother aspect that should be ascertained is whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segment When you invest in market leaders the risk is less Theshares of market leaders do not fall as quickly as those of other companies There is a magic to their name that would make individuals prefer to buy their products as opposed to others

3 Company PoliciesThe policy a company follows is also important What is its plans for growth What is its vision Every company has a life If it is allowed to live a normal life it will grow upto a point and then begin to level out and eventually die It is at the point of leveling out that it must be given new life This can give it renewed vigour and a new lease of life

4 Labour RelationsLabour relations are extremely important A company that has motivated industrious work force has high productivity and practically no disruption of work On the other hand a company that has bad industrial relations will lose several hundred mandays as a consequence of strikes and go slows

24

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

5 Where the company is located and where its factories are One must also consider where the companies Plants and Factories are located

THE ANNUAL REPORT

The primary and most important source of information about a company is its Annual Report By law this is prepared every year and distributed to the shareholders Annual Reports are usually very well presented A tremendous amount of data is given about the performance of a company over a period of time The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific partsA) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the Accounts

A The Directorrsquos ReportThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship 1 It enunciates the opinion of the directors on the state of the economy and the political situation vis-agrave-vis the company 2 Explains the performance and the financial results of the company in the period under review This is an extremely important part The results and operations of the various separate divisions are usually detailed and investors can determine the reasons for their good or bad performance3 The Directorrsquos Report details the companys plans for modernization expansion and diversification Without these a company will remain static and eventually decline4 Discusses the profit earned in the period under review and the dividend Recommended by the directors This paragraph should normally be read with some skepticism as the directors will always argue that the performance was satisfactory If adverse economic conditions are usually at fault 5 Elaborates on the directors views of the companys prospects in the future6 Discusses plans for new acquisition and investments An investor must intelligently evaluate the issues raised in a Directorrsquos Report Industry conditions and the managements knowledge of the business must be considered

B The Auditors ReportThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors Auditors are required to report whether the financial statements presented do in fact present a true and fair view of the state of the company Investors must remember that the auditors are their representatives and that they are required by law to point out if the financial statements are not true and fair

CFinancial Statements

25

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The published financial statements of a company in an Annual Report consist of its Balance Sheet as at the end of the accounting period detailing the financing condition of the company at that date and the Profit and Loss Account or Income Statement summarizing the activities of the company for the accounting period

BALANCE SHEETThe Balance Sheet details the financial position of a company on a particular date of the companys assets (that which the company owns) and liabilities (that which the companyowes) grouped logically under specific heads It must however be noted that the Balance Sheet details the financial position on a particular day and that the position can be materially different on the next day or the day after

PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNTThe Profit and Loss account summarizes the activities of a company during an accounting period which may be a month a quarter six months a year or longer and the result achieved by the company It details the income earned by the company its cost and the resulting profit or loss It is in effect the performance appraisal not only of the company but also of its management- its competence foresight and ability to lead

RATIOS

Ratios express mathematically the relationship between performance figures andor assetsliabilities in a form that can be easily understood and interpretedNo single ratio tells the complete storyRatios can be broken down into four broad categories

26

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(A) Profit and Loss RatiosThese show the relationship between two items or groups of items in a profit and loss account or income statement The more common of these ratios are1 Sales to cost of goods sold2 Selling expenses to sales3 Net profit to sales and4 Gross profit to sales

(B) Balance Sheet RatiosThese deal with the relationship in the balance sheet such as 1 Shareholders equity to borrowed funds2 Current assets to current liabilities3 Liabilities to net worth4 Debt to assets and5 Liabilities to assets

(C) Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Account RatiosThese relate an item on the balance sheet to another in the profit and loss account such as1 Earnings to shareholders funds2 Net income to assets employed3 Sales to stock4 Sales to debtors and5 Cost of goods sold to creditors

(D) Financial Statements and Market RatiosThese are normally known as market ratios and are arrived at by relative financial figures to market prices1 Market value to earnings and2 Book value to market value(a) Market value(b) Earnings(c) Profitability(d) Liquidity(e) Leverage(f) Debt Service Capacity(g) Asset ManagementEfficiency(h) Margins

The major ratios that are considered(i) Market value(ii) Price- earnings ratio(iii) Market-to-book ratio(iv) Earnings(v) Earning per share(vi) Dividend per share

27

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(vii) Dividend payout ratio(viii) Leverage ratios(ix) Return on investmentstotal assets

CASH FLOW A statement of sources and uses begins with the profit for the year to which are added the increases in liability accounts (sources) and from which are reduced the increases in asset accounts (uses) The net result shows whether there has been an excess or deficit of funds and how this was financed Investors must examine a companys cash flow as it reveals exactly where the money came from how it was utilized Investors must be concerned if a company is financing either its inventories or paying dividends from borrowings without real growth as that shows deterioration

CHAPTER-4 ANALYSIS

29

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

I FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF STOCKS

Basically fundamental analysis is covered in 3 parts

1 Market economy analysis

2 Industry Analysis

3 Company Analysis

1) TATA MOTORS

I Market Economy Analysis

It covers the macro economy analysis and the various macro economic factors on the national level like GDP Monetary policies of India Fiscal Policies and Inflation and money supply etc

GDP

Real GDP growth accelerated from 75 per cent during 2004-05 to 84 per cent during

2005-06 on the back of buoyant manufacturing and services activity supported by a

recovery in the agricultural sector Real GDP growth has thus averaged over eight per

cent during the last three years and over seven per cent in the first four years (2002-03 to

2005-06) of the Tenth Five Year Plan

Strengths of India today are

30

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A well diversified industrial base which profits from self-reliance in all core industries A

large amp sophisticated financial architecture - The robust capital Markets today have over

9000 listed companies and boast of a massive Market capitalization

A healthy GDP composition with agriculture contributing 22 Industry 22 and

services which have gone strength to strength accounting For 56 of the GDP an

acknowledged strength in knowledge driven industries like Information technology

biotechnology entertainment Software etc

India has Over 3 million scientific amp technical manpower Over 06 million SampT post

graduates Over 07 million graduate engineers Over 3500 doctorates in sciences every

year

Assuming trend growth in agriculture under normal monsoon conditions and barring

domestic or external shocks the Reserve Bank in its Annual Policy Statement for 2007-

08 (April 2007) placed real GDP growth for policy purposes in the range of 75-80 per

cent during 2007-08 Growth prospects are however subject to a number of downside

risks The risks emanating from the global economy are potential escalation and

volatility in international crude oil prices firming up of overall inflationary pressures and

expectations and a hardening of international interest rates along with the withdrawal of

monetary accommodation

Indiarsquos demographic advantage ndash In contrast to developed Countries India will have a

younger population for the next 50 years Hence India would be the hub for RampD

Inflation

Inflation was contained to 63 per cent by end-March 2007 within the indicative

trajectory of 50-55 per cent during 2007-08 The actual inflation was considerably lower

than the indicative trajectory and this could be mainly attributed to the deferred pass-

through of even the cognisable permanent component of international crude oil prices

Money Supply

31

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Monetary and liquidity conditions remained largely comfortable during 2006-07reflecting

proactive liquidity management operations by the Reserve Bank under the liquidity

adjustment facility flexible management of issuances under the market stabilisation

scheme and some private placement of Government securities

In short the Indian economy is exhibiting strong fundamentals and displaying

considerable resilience At the same time there are continuing signs of demand pressures

especially high credit growth that could exert upward pressure on prices when associated

with supply shocks such as from oil These pressures have the potential for impacting

stability and inflation expectations While domestic developments continue to dominate

the economy global factors tend to gain more attention now than before The global

outlook for growth is positive but downside risks in regard to inflation also RBI is

applying new repo and reverse repo for the balance of inflation and monetary policies

The following are macroeconomic policies generally found as part of government-

directed industrial auto policies

(a) Restrictions on domestic and foreign investment

(b) Domestic content requirements

(c) High tariff walls

(d) Auto export requirements

(e) National production to sales ratios

(f) Distribution controls

(g) Quotas and licensing requirements that significantly restrict imports

(h) Government approval for product related decisions including vehicle make

body type engine size etc

(i) Special government categories for auto taxes

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry Today it is

amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output multiplier of

224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy) In recent

32

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

years we have seen increasing number of global players entering Indian market by way of

Joint ventures collaborations or wholly owned subsidiary

The automobile industry is torn between trying to reduce costs on the one hand and on

the other dealing with the high price of performance-enhancing technology and

environmental compliance Key drivers in the automotive industry are

Reducing air pollution

Reduction of weight

Recyclability

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

The automobile market is at the maturity stage of the life cycle locally and globally due

to an increased number of competitors from domestic and foreign markets The

automobile market is characterized by a low potential for market growth but high sales

and profit potential as the products have still not saturated the market as a whole

International In FY 2006-07 the Company increased share of its overseas vehicle sales

from 76 last year to record high of 111 (as of its total sales) and has planned

further increase in this year

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

SWOT ANALYSIS

STRENGHS

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

12 RATIONALE FOR THE STUDY

In an industry plagued with skepticism and a stock market increasingly difficult to predict

and contend with if one looks hard enough there may still be a genuine aid for the Day

Trader and Short Term Investor

The price of a security represents a consensus It is the price at which one person agrees

to buy and another agrees to sell The price at which an investor is willing to buy or sell

depends primarily on his expectations If he expects the securitys price to rise he will

buy it if the investor expects the price to fall he will sell it These simple statements are

the cause of a major challenge in forecasting security prices because they refer to human

expectations As we all know firsthand humans expectations are neither easily

quantifiable nor predictable

If prices are based on investor expectations then knowing what a security should sell for

(ie fundamental analysis) becomes less important than knowing what other investors

expect it to sell for Thats not to say that knowing what a security should sell for isnt

important--it is But there is usually a fairly strong consensus of a stocks future earnings

that the average investor cannot disprove

Fundamental analysis and technical analysis can co-exist in peace and complement each other Since

all the investors in the stock market want to make the maximum profits possible they just cannot

afford to ignore either fundamental or technical analysis

13 OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY

Primary Objective a) To do technical and fundamental analysis of chosen securities

Sub-Objectives

a) to study the various theories of technical analysis and fundamental analysis

b) understand the movement and performance of stocks

c) understanding and analyzing the factors that affect the movement of stock

prices in the Indian Stock Markets

14 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY amp DESIGN

TYPE OF STUDY

The research has been based on secondary data analysis The study has been exploratory

as it aims at examining the secondary data for analyzing the previous researches that have

been done in the area of technical and fundamental analysis of stocks The knowledge

thus gained from this preliminary study forms the basis for the further detailed

Descriptive research In the exploratory study the various technical indicators that are

important for analyzing stock were actually identified and important ones short listed

SAMPLE DESIGN

The sample of the stocks for the purpose of collecting secondary data has been selected

on the basis of Random Sampling The stocks are chosen in an unbiased manner and each

stock is chosen independent of the other stocks chosen

SAMPLE SIZE

The sample size for the number of stocks is taken as 10 for technical analysis and 4 for

fundamental analysis of stocks as fundamental analysis is very exhaustive and requires

detailed study

CHAPTER- 2

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

A CONCEPTUAL OVERVIEW

9

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

Technical analysis can be conditionally divided into some main parts such as

Types of charts Graphical methods Analytical methods Technical indicators

Technical analysis is concerned with predicting future price trends from historical price and volume data The underlying axiom of technical analysis is that all fundamentals (including expectations) are factored into the market and are reflected in exchange rates

A technical analysis is based on three axioms

Movement of the market considers everything Movement of prices is purposeful History repeats itself

SUPPORT AND RESISTANCE

Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

Resistance on the other hand is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher The price at which a trade takes place is the price at which a bull and bear agree to do business It represents the consensus of their expectations

10

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Support levels indicate the price where the most of investors believe that prices will move higher Resistance levels indicate the price at which the most of investors feel prices will move lower

Role Reversal

When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

31 DOW THEORYndash TRENDS

The ideas of Charles Dow the first editor of the Wall Street Journal form the basis of technical analysis The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages Dow created the Industrial Average of top blue chip stocks and a second average of top railroad stocks (now the Transport Average) He believed that the behavior of the averages reflected the hopes and fears of the entire market The behavior patterns that he observed apply to markets throughout the world

Three Movements

Markets fluctuate in more than one time frame at the same time

11

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Nothing is more certain than that the market has three well defined movements which fit into each other

The first is the daily variation due to local causes and the balance of buying and

selling at that particular time

The secondary movement covers a period ranging from ten days to sixty days

averaging probably between thirty and forty days

The third move is the great swing covering from four to six years

Bull markets are broad upward movements of the market that may last several

years interrupted by secondary reactions Bear markets are long declines

interrupted by secondary rallies These movements are referred to as the primary

trend

Secondary movements normally retrace from one third to two thirds of the

primary trend since the previous secondary movement

Daily fluctuations are important for short-term trading but are unimportant in

analysis of broad market movements

Various cycles have subsequently been identified within these broad categories

Primary Movements have Three Phases

The general conditions in the market

Bull markets

Bull markets commence with reviving confidence as business conditions improve

Prices rise as the market responds to improved earnings

12

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Rampant speculation dominates the market and price advances are based on hopes and

expectations rather than actual results

Bear markets

Bear markets start with abandonment of the hopes and expectations that sustained

inflated prices

Prices decline in response to disappointing earnings

Distress selling follows as speculators attempt to close out their positions and

securities are sold without regard to their true value

Ranging Markets

A secondary reaction may take the form of a lsquolinersquo which may endure for several weeks Price fluctuates within a narrow range of about five per cent

Breakouts from a range can occur in either direction

Advances above the upper limit of the line signal accumulation and higher prices

Declines below the lower limit indicate distribution and lower prices

Volume is used to confirm price breakouts

Trends

Bull Trends

A bull trend is identified by a series of rallies where each rally exceeds the highest point of the previous rally The decline between rallies ends above the lowest point of the previous decline

Successive higher highs and higher lows

13

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

Start = higher Low + break above previous High

The end is signaled by a lower high (peak) followed by a decline below the previous low (trough)

End = lower High + break below previous Low

A bear trend starts at the end of a bull trend when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

Large Corrections

A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

14

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A bull trend starts when price rallies above the previous high

A bull trend ends when price declines below the previous low

A bear trend starts at the end of a bull trend (and vice versa)

32 ELLIOT WAVES THEORY BASICS

TRENDLINES

Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations (which causes supplydemand lines to shift)

15

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

An Uptrend is defined by successively higher low-prices A rising trend can be thought of as a rising support level the bulls are in control and are pushing prices higher A Downtrend is defined by successively lower high-prices A falling trend can be thought of as a falling resistance level the bears are in control and are pushing prices lower

33 MOVING AVERAGES

Moving averages are one of the oldest and most popular technical analysis tools A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument over a given time

The moving average represents the consensus of investorrsquos expectations over the indicated period of time

The classic interpretation of a moving average is to use it in observing changes in prices Investors typically buy when the price of an instrument rises above its moving average and sell when the it falls below its moving average

TECHNICAL INDICATORS

There is a vast number of elaborated technical indicators

16

MOVING AVERAGE ndashMA RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX mdash RSI The Relative Strength Index

Technical Indicator (RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100 When Wilder introduced the Relative Strength Index he recommended using a 14-day RSI Since then the 9-day and 25-day Relative Strength Index indicators have also gained popularity

ADVANCEDECLINE LINE The ldquoadvancedecline linerdquo shows for some period the cumulative difference between advancing and declining issues

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 shares

CHAPTER- 3

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS

A CONCEPTUAL OVERVIEW

18

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Fundamental analysis refers to the study of the core underlying elements that influence the economy of a particular entity It is a method of study that attempts to predict price action and market trends by analyzing economic indicators government policy and societal factors (to name just a few elements) within a business cycle framework

I ECONOMIC ANALYSIS

POLITICO-ECONOMIC ANALYSIS No industry or company can exist in isolation It may have splendid managers and a tremendous product However its sales and its costs are affected by factors some of which are beyond its control - the world economy price inflation taxes and a host of others It is important therefore to have an appreciation of the politico-economic factors that affect an industry and a company

The political equationA stable political environment is necessary for steady balanced growth If a country is ruled by a stable government which takes decisions for the long-term development of the country industry and companies will prosper Foreign Exchange ReservesA country needs foreign exchange reserves to meet its commitments pay for its imports and service foreign debts

Foreign Exchange RiskThis is a real risk and one must be cognizant of the effect of a revaluation or devaluation of the currency either in the home country or in the country the company deals in

Restrictive PracticesRestrictive practices or cartels imposed by countries can affect companies and industries crystallizing the exposure

Foreign Debt and the Balance of Trade

19

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Foreign debt especially if it is very large can be a tremendous burden on an economy India pays around $ 5 billion a year in principal repayments and interest payments InflationInflation has an enormous effect in the economy Within the country it erodes purchasing power As a consequence demand falls If the rate of inflation in the country from which a company imports is high then the cost of production in that country will automatically go up

The Threat of NationalizationThe threat of nationalization is a real threat in many countries ndash the fear that a company may become nationalized

Interest RatesA low interest rate stimulates investment and industry Conversely high interest rates result in higher cost of production and lower consumption

TaxationThe level of taxation in a country has a direct effect on the economy If tax rates are low people have more disposable income

Government PolicyGovernment policy has a direct impact on the economy A government that is perceived to be proindustry will attract investment

THE ECONOMIC CYCLE

It affects investment decisions employment demand and the profitability of companiesThe four stages of an economic cycle are DepressionRecoveryBoom Recession DepressionAt the time of depression demand is low and falling Inflation is high and so are interest rates Companies crippled by high borrowing and falling sales are forced to curtail production close down plants built at times of higher demand and let workers go

RecoveryDuring this phase the economy begins to recover Investment begins anew and the demand grows Companies begin to post profits Conspicuous spending begins once again

Boom

20

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

In the boom phase demand reaches an all time high Investment is also high Interest rates are low Gradually as time goes on supply begins to exceed the demand Prices that had been rising begin to stabilize and even fall There is an increase in demand Then as the boom period matures prices begin to rise again

RecessionThe economy slowly begins to downturn Demand starts falling Interest rates and inflation are high Companies start finding it difficult to sell their goods The economy slowly begins to downturn

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

The importance of industry analysis is now dawning on the Indian investor as never before

CycleThe first step in industry is to determine the cycle it is in or the stage of maturity of the industry All industries evolve through the following stages1 Entrepreneurial sunrise or nascent stage2 Expansion or growth stage3 Stabilization stagnation or maturity stage and4 Decline or sunset stage to properly establish itself In the early days it may actually make losses

The Entrepreneurial or Nascent Stage

21

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

At the first stage the industry is new and it can take some time for it to properly establish itself

The Expansion or Growth StageOnce the industry has established itself it enters a growth stage As the industry grows many new companies enter the industry

The Stabilization or Maturity StageAfter the halcyon days of growth an industry matures and stabilizes Rewards are low and so too is the risk Growth is moderate Though sales may increase they do so at a slower rate than before Products are more standardized and less innovative and there are several competitors

The Decline or Sunset StageFinally the industry declines This occurs when its products are no longer popular This may be on account of several factors such as a change in social habits The film and video industries

1 BARRIER TO ENTRYNew entrants increase the capacity in an industry and the inflow of funds The question that arises is how easy is it to enter an industry There are some barriers to entry

a) Economies of scaleb) Product differentiation c) Capital requirementd) Switching costse) Access to distribution channelsf) Cost disadvantages independent of scaleg) Government policyh) Expected retaliationj) International cartels

2 THE THREAT OF SUBSTITUTIONNew inventions are always taking place and new and better products replace existing ones An industry that can be replaced by substitutes or is threatened by substitutes is normally an industry one must be careful of investing in An industry where this occurs constantly is the packaging industry -bottles replaced by cans cans replaced by plastic bottles and the like To ward off the threat of substitution companies often have to spend large sums of money in advertising and promotion

3 BARGAINING POWER OF THE BUYERSIn an industry where buyers have control ie in a buyers market buyers are constantly forcing prices down demanding better services or higher quality and this often erodes profitability The factors one should check are whether

22

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

a) A particular buyer buys most of the products (large purchase volumes) If such buyers withdraw their patronage they can destroy an industry They can also force prices downb) Buyers can play one company against another to bring prices down

4 BARGAINING POWER FOR THE SUPPLIERSAn industry unduly controlled by its suppliers is also under threat This occurs whena) The suppliers have a monopoly or if there are few suppliersb) Suppliers control an essential c) Demand for the product exceeds d) The supplier supplies to various industriese) The switching costs are highf) The suppliers product does not have a substituteg) The suppliers product is an important input for the buyersh) The buyer is not important to the supplieri) The suppliers product is unique

5 RIVALRY AMONG COMPETITORSRivalry among competitors can cause an industry great harm This occurs mainly by price cuts heavy advertising additional high cost services or offers and the like This rivalry occurs mainly whena) There are many competitors and supply exceeds demand Companies resort to price cuts and advertise heavily in order to attract customers for their goodsb) The industry growth is slow and companies are competing with each other for a greater market sharec) The economy is in a recession and companies cut the price of their products and offer better service to stimulate demandd) There is lack of differentiation between the product of one company and that of another In such cases the buyer makes his choice on the basis of price or servicee) In some industries economies of scale will necessitate large additions to existing capacities in a company The increase in production could result in over capacity amp price cuttingf) Competitors may have very different strategies in selling their goods and in competing they may be continuously trying to stay ahead

III COMPANY ANALYSIS

At the final stage of fundamental analysis the investor analyzes the company This analysis has two thrustsHow has the company performed vis-agrave-vis other similar companies and How has the company performed in comparison to earlier years It is imperative that one completes the politico economic analysis and the industry analysis before a company is analyzed because the companys performance at a period of time is to an extent a reflection of the economy the political situation and the industry What does one look at when analyzing a company The different issues regarding a company that should be examined are The Management

23

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The Company The Annual Report Ratios Cash flow

THE MANAGEMENT

The single most important factor one should consider when investing in a company and one often never considered is its management In India management can be broadlydivided in two types Family Management Professional Management

THE COMPANY

An aspect not necessarily examined during an analysis of fundamentals is the company A company may have made losses consecutively for two years or more and one may not wish to touch its shares - yet it may be a good company and worth purchasing into There are several factors one should look at

1 How a company is perceived by its competitorsOne of the key factors to ascertain is how a company is perceived by its competitors It is held in high regard Its management may be known for its maturity vision competence and aggressiveness The investor must ascertain the reason and then determine whetherthe reason will continue into the foreseeable future

2 Whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segmentAnother aspect that should be ascertained is whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segment When you invest in market leaders the risk is less Theshares of market leaders do not fall as quickly as those of other companies There is a magic to their name that would make individuals prefer to buy their products as opposed to others

3 Company PoliciesThe policy a company follows is also important What is its plans for growth What is its vision Every company has a life If it is allowed to live a normal life it will grow upto a point and then begin to level out and eventually die It is at the point of leveling out that it must be given new life This can give it renewed vigour and a new lease of life

4 Labour RelationsLabour relations are extremely important A company that has motivated industrious work force has high productivity and practically no disruption of work On the other hand a company that has bad industrial relations will lose several hundred mandays as a consequence of strikes and go slows

24

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

5 Where the company is located and where its factories are One must also consider where the companies Plants and Factories are located

THE ANNUAL REPORT

The primary and most important source of information about a company is its Annual Report By law this is prepared every year and distributed to the shareholders Annual Reports are usually very well presented A tremendous amount of data is given about the performance of a company over a period of time The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific partsA) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the Accounts

A The Directorrsquos ReportThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship 1 It enunciates the opinion of the directors on the state of the economy and the political situation vis-agrave-vis the company 2 Explains the performance and the financial results of the company in the period under review This is an extremely important part The results and operations of the various separate divisions are usually detailed and investors can determine the reasons for their good or bad performance3 The Directorrsquos Report details the companys plans for modernization expansion and diversification Without these a company will remain static and eventually decline4 Discusses the profit earned in the period under review and the dividend Recommended by the directors This paragraph should normally be read with some skepticism as the directors will always argue that the performance was satisfactory If adverse economic conditions are usually at fault 5 Elaborates on the directors views of the companys prospects in the future6 Discusses plans for new acquisition and investments An investor must intelligently evaluate the issues raised in a Directorrsquos Report Industry conditions and the managements knowledge of the business must be considered

B The Auditors ReportThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors Auditors are required to report whether the financial statements presented do in fact present a true and fair view of the state of the company Investors must remember that the auditors are their representatives and that they are required by law to point out if the financial statements are not true and fair

CFinancial Statements

25

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The published financial statements of a company in an Annual Report consist of its Balance Sheet as at the end of the accounting period detailing the financing condition of the company at that date and the Profit and Loss Account or Income Statement summarizing the activities of the company for the accounting period

BALANCE SHEETThe Balance Sheet details the financial position of a company on a particular date of the companys assets (that which the company owns) and liabilities (that which the companyowes) grouped logically under specific heads It must however be noted that the Balance Sheet details the financial position on a particular day and that the position can be materially different on the next day or the day after

PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNTThe Profit and Loss account summarizes the activities of a company during an accounting period which may be a month a quarter six months a year or longer and the result achieved by the company It details the income earned by the company its cost and the resulting profit or loss It is in effect the performance appraisal not only of the company but also of its management- its competence foresight and ability to lead

RATIOS

Ratios express mathematically the relationship between performance figures andor assetsliabilities in a form that can be easily understood and interpretedNo single ratio tells the complete storyRatios can be broken down into four broad categories

26

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(A) Profit and Loss RatiosThese show the relationship between two items or groups of items in a profit and loss account or income statement The more common of these ratios are1 Sales to cost of goods sold2 Selling expenses to sales3 Net profit to sales and4 Gross profit to sales

(B) Balance Sheet RatiosThese deal with the relationship in the balance sheet such as 1 Shareholders equity to borrowed funds2 Current assets to current liabilities3 Liabilities to net worth4 Debt to assets and5 Liabilities to assets

(C) Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Account RatiosThese relate an item on the balance sheet to another in the profit and loss account such as1 Earnings to shareholders funds2 Net income to assets employed3 Sales to stock4 Sales to debtors and5 Cost of goods sold to creditors

(D) Financial Statements and Market RatiosThese are normally known as market ratios and are arrived at by relative financial figures to market prices1 Market value to earnings and2 Book value to market value(a) Market value(b) Earnings(c) Profitability(d) Liquidity(e) Leverage(f) Debt Service Capacity(g) Asset ManagementEfficiency(h) Margins

The major ratios that are considered(i) Market value(ii) Price- earnings ratio(iii) Market-to-book ratio(iv) Earnings(v) Earning per share(vi) Dividend per share

27

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(vii) Dividend payout ratio(viii) Leverage ratios(ix) Return on investmentstotal assets

CASH FLOW A statement of sources and uses begins with the profit for the year to which are added the increases in liability accounts (sources) and from which are reduced the increases in asset accounts (uses) The net result shows whether there has been an excess or deficit of funds and how this was financed Investors must examine a companys cash flow as it reveals exactly where the money came from how it was utilized Investors must be concerned if a company is financing either its inventories or paying dividends from borrowings without real growth as that shows deterioration

CHAPTER-4 ANALYSIS

29

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

I FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF STOCKS

Basically fundamental analysis is covered in 3 parts

1 Market economy analysis

2 Industry Analysis

3 Company Analysis

1) TATA MOTORS

I Market Economy Analysis

It covers the macro economy analysis and the various macro economic factors on the national level like GDP Monetary policies of India Fiscal Policies and Inflation and money supply etc

GDP

Real GDP growth accelerated from 75 per cent during 2004-05 to 84 per cent during

2005-06 on the back of buoyant manufacturing and services activity supported by a

recovery in the agricultural sector Real GDP growth has thus averaged over eight per

cent during the last three years and over seven per cent in the first four years (2002-03 to

2005-06) of the Tenth Five Year Plan

Strengths of India today are

30

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A well diversified industrial base which profits from self-reliance in all core industries A

large amp sophisticated financial architecture - The robust capital Markets today have over

9000 listed companies and boast of a massive Market capitalization

A healthy GDP composition with agriculture contributing 22 Industry 22 and

services which have gone strength to strength accounting For 56 of the GDP an

acknowledged strength in knowledge driven industries like Information technology

biotechnology entertainment Software etc

India has Over 3 million scientific amp technical manpower Over 06 million SampT post

graduates Over 07 million graduate engineers Over 3500 doctorates in sciences every

year

Assuming trend growth in agriculture under normal monsoon conditions and barring

domestic or external shocks the Reserve Bank in its Annual Policy Statement for 2007-

08 (April 2007) placed real GDP growth for policy purposes in the range of 75-80 per

cent during 2007-08 Growth prospects are however subject to a number of downside

risks The risks emanating from the global economy are potential escalation and

volatility in international crude oil prices firming up of overall inflationary pressures and

expectations and a hardening of international interest rates along with the withdrawal of

monetary accommodation

Indiarsquos demographic advantage ndash In contrast to developed Countries India will have a

younger population for the next 50 years Hence India would be the hub for RampD

Inflation

Inflation was contained to 63 per cent by end-March 2007 within the indicative

trajectory of 50-55 per cent during 2007-08 The actual inflation was considerably lower

than the indicative trajectory and this could be mainly attributed to the deferred pass-

through of even the cognisable permanent component of international crude oil prices

Money Supply

31

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Monetary and liquidity conditions remained largely comfortable during 2006-07reflecting

proactive liquidity management operations by the Reserve Bank under the liquidity

adjustment facility flexible management of issuances under the market stabilisation

scheme and some private placement of Government securities

In short the Indian economy is exhibiting strong fundamentals and displaying

considerable resilience At the same time there are continuing signs of demand pressures

especially high credit growth that could exert upward pressure on prices when associated

with supply shocks such as from oil These pressures have the potential for impacting

stability and inflation expectations While domestic developments continue to dominate

the economy global factors tend to gain more attention now than before The global

outlook for growth is positive but downside risks in regard to inflation also RBI is

applying new repo and reverse repo for the balance of inflation and monetary policies

The following are macroeconomic policies generally found as part of government-

directed industrial auto policies

(a) Restrictions on domestic and foreign investment

(b) Domestic content requirements

(c) High tariff walls

(d) Auto export requirements

(e) National production to sales ratios

(f) Distribution controls

(g) Quotas and licensing requirements that significantly restrict imports

(h) Government approval for product related decisions including vehicle make

body type engine size etc

(i) Special government categories for auto taxes

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry Today it is

amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output multiplier of

224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy) In recent

32

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

years we have seen increasing number of global players entering Indian market by way of

Joint ventures collaborations or wholly owned subsidiary

The automobile industry is torn between trying to reduce costs on the one hand and on

the other dealing with the high price of performance-enhancing technology and

environmental compliance Key drivers in the automotive industry are

Reducing air pollution

Reduction of weight

Recyclability

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

The automobile market is at the maturity stage of the life cycle locally and globally due

to an increased number of competitors from domestic and foreign markets The

automobile market is characterized by a low potential for market growth but high sales

and profit potential as the products have still not saturated the market as a whole

Opportunities and Threats

a) Opportunities

Road Development The ongoing road development program would improve

connectivity to ports cities and villages through a network of highways and

interconnecting roads by 2010-11 Improved road network would help in faster

34

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

movement of goods between various cities and towns The Company launched TATA

Novus range of vehicles in the heavy segment and TATA ACE for last mile distribution

Car penetration in India Car penetration in India is 7 cars per 1000 persons

International In FY 2006-07 the Company increased share of its overseas vehicle sales

from 76 last year to record high of 111 (as of its total sales) and has planned

further increase in this year

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

PORTERrsquoS MODEL

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

COMPANY ANALYSIS

The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific parts

A) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the AccountsATHE DIRECTORrsquoS REPORTThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship Fundamental AnalysisB THE AUDITORS REPORTThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors

C FINANCIAL STATEMENTSIt comprises of Balance Sheet Profit and Loss account Cash Flows Its analysis would be discussed later

DSCHEDULESThe schedules detail pertinent information about the items of Balance Sheet and Profit amp Loss Account It also details information about sales manufacturing costs administration costs interest and other income and expenses

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

POINT AND FIGURE CHARTS Point-and-figure charts are a way of showing only major price moves and their direction A ldquomajorrdquo up move is marked with an ldquoXrdquo while a ldquomajorrdquo down move is marked with an ldquoOrdquo A new column starts every time there is a change in direction

HEAD AND SHOULDERS FORMATION Once a chart is drawn technical analysts examine it for various formations or pattern types in an attempt to predict stock price or market direction in the case of head-and-shoulders formation

ODD-LOT The ldquoodd-lotrdquo indicator looks at whether odd-lot purchases are up or down

HEMLINE Followers of the ldquohemlinerdquo indicator claim that hemlines tend to rise in good times

SUPER BOWL The Super Bowl indicator forecasts the direction of the market based on whether the National Football Conference or the American Football Conference wins

BETA Beta is a risk measure comparing the volatility of a stocks price movement to the general market

MOMENTUM Momentum measures the speed of price change and provides a leading indicator of changes in trend

UPSIDEDOWNSIDE Measures of UpsideDownside separate the volumes for rising markets from those in falling markets Since volume is independent of price it makes a valuable tool for measuring the quality of a price trend

SWING INDEX Is a swing or wave system used to capitalize on breakout patterns ASI is commonly used to confirm trend line breakouts on price charts

ARMS INDEX (TRIN) Short term breadth indicator showing whether volume is flowing into advancing or declining issues

14 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY amp DESIGN

TYPE OF STUDY

The research has been based on secondary data analysis The study has been exploratory

as it aims at examining the secondary data for analyzing the previous researches that have

been done in the area of technical and fundamental analysis of stocks The knowledge

thus gained from this preliminary study forms the basis for the further detailed

Descriptive research In the exploratory study the various technical indicators that are

important for analyzing stock were actually identified and important ones short listed

SAMPLE DESIGN

The sample of the stocks for the purpose of collecting secondary data has been selected

on the basis of Random Sampling The stocks are chosen in an unbiased manner and each

stock is chosen independent of the other stocks chosen

SAMPLE SIZE

The sample size for the number of stocks is taken as 10 for technical analysis and 4 for

fundamental analysis of stocks as fundamental analysis is very exhaustive and requires

detailed study

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

A CONCEPTUAL OVERVIEW

9

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

Technical analysis can be conditionally divided into some main parts such as

Types of charts Graphical methods Analytical methods Technical indicators

Technical analysis is concerned with predicting future price trends from historical price and volume data The underlying axiom of technical analysis is that all fundamentals (including expectations) are factored into the market and are reflected in exchange rates

A technical analysis is based on three axioms

Movement of the market considers everything Movement of prices is purposeful History repeats itself

SUPPORT AND RESISTANCE

Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

Resistance on the other hand is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher The price at which a trade takes place is the price at which a bull and bear agree to do business It represents the consensus of their expectations

10

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Support levels indicate the price where the most of investors believe that prices will move higher Resistance levels indicate the price at which the most of investors feel prices will move lower

Role Reversal

When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

31 DOW THEORYndash TRENDS

The ideas of Charles Dow the first editor of the Wall Street Journal form the basis of technical analysis The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages Dow created the Industrial Average of top blue chip stocks and a second average of top railroad stocks (now the Transport Average) He believed that the behavior of the averages reflected the hopes and fears of the entire market The behavior patterns that he observed apply to markets throughout the world

Three Movements

Markets fluctuate in more than one time frame at the same time

11

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Nothing is more certain than that the market has three well defined movements which fit into each other

The first is the daily variation due to local causes and the balance of buying and

selling at that particular time

The secondary movement covers a period ranging from ten days to sixty days

averaging probably between thirty and forty days

The third move is the great swing covering from four to six years

Bull markets are broad upward movements of the market that may last several

years interrupted by secondary reactions Bear markets are long declines

interrupted by secondary rallies These movements are referred to as the primary

trend

Secondary movements normally retrace from one third to two thirds of the

primary trend since the previous secondary movement

Daily fluctuations are important for short-term trading but are unimportant in

analysis of broad market movements

Various cycles have subsequently been identified within these broad categories

Primary Movements have Three Phases

The general conditions in the market

Bull markets

Bull markets commence with reviving confidence as business conditions improve

Prices rise as the market responds to improved earnings

12

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Rampant speculation dominates the market and price advances are based on hopes and

expectations rather than actual results

Bear markets

Bear markets start with abandonment of the hopes and expectations that sustained

inflated prices

Prices decline in response to disappointing earnings

Distress selling follows as speculators attempt to close out their positions and

securities are sold without regard to their true value

Ranging Markets

A secondary reaction may take the form of a lsquolinersquo which may endure for several weeks Price fluctuates within a narrow range of about five per cent

Breakouts from a range can occur in either direction

Advances above the upper limit of the line signal accumulation and higher prices

Declines below the lower limit indicate distribution and lower prices

Volume is used to confirm price breakouts

Trends

Bull Trends

A bull trend is identified by a series of rallies where each rally exceeds the highest point of the previous rally The decline between rallies ends above the lowest point of the previous decline

Successive higher highs and higher lows

13

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

Start = higher Low + break above previous High

The end is signaled by a lower high (peak) followed by a decline below the previous low (trough)

End = lower High + break below previous Low

A bear trend starts at the end of a bull trend when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

Large Corrections

A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

14

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A bull trend starts when price rallies above the previous high

A bull trend ends when price declines below the previous low

A bear trend starts at the end of a bull trend (and vice versa)

32 ELLIOT WAVES THEORY BASICS

TRENDLINES

Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations (which causes supplydemand lines to shift)

15

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

An Uptrend is defined by successively higher low-prices A rising trend can be thought of as a rising support level the bulls are in control and are pushing prices higher A Downtrend is defined by successively lower high-prices A falling trend can be thought of as a falling resistance level the bears are in control and are pushing prices lower

33 MOVING AVERAGES

Moving averages are one of the oldest and most popular technical analysis tools A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument over a given time

The moving average represents the consensus of investorrsquos expectations over the indicated period of time

The classic interpretation of a moving average is to use it in observing changes in prices Investors typically buy when the price of an instrument rises above its moving average and sell when the it falls below its moving average

TECHNICAL INDICATORS

There is a vast number of elaborated technical indicators

16

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

MOVING AVERAGE ndashMA RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX mdash RSI The Relative Strength Index

Technical Indicator (RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100 When Wilder introduced the Relative Strength Index he recommended using a 14-day RSI Since then the 9-day and 25-day Relative Strength Index indicators have also gained popularity

ADVANCEDECLINE LINE The ldquoadvancedecline linerdquo shows for some period the cumulative difference between advancing and declining issues

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 shares

HI-LO-CLOSE CHART A hi-lo-close chart is a bar chart showing for each day the high price low price and closing price

CANDLESTICK CHART A candlestick chart is an extended version of the hi-lo-close chart It plots the high low open and closing prices and also shows whether the closing price was above or below the opening price

CHAPTER- 3

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS

A CONCEPTUAL OVERVIEW

18

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Fundamental analysis refers to the study of the core underlying elements that influence the economy of a particular entity It is a method of study that attempts to predict price action and market trends by analyzing economic indicators government policy and societal factors (to name just a few elements) within a business cycle framework

I ECONOMIC ANALYSIS

POLITICO-ECONOMIC ANALYSIS No industry or company can exist in isolation It may have splendid managers and a tremendous product However its sales and its costs are affected by factors some of which are beyond its control - the world economy price inflation taxes and a host of others It is important therefore to have an appreciation of the politico-economic factors that affect an industry and a company

The political equationA stable political environment is necessary for steady balanced growth If a country is ruled by a stable government which takes decisions for the long-term development of the country industry and companies will prosper Foreign Exchange ReservesA country needs foreign exchange reserves to meet its commitments pay for its imports and service foreign debts

Foreign Exchange RiskThis is a real risk and one must be cognizant of the effect of a revaluation or devaluation of the currency either in the home country or in the country the company deals in

Restrictive PracticesRestrictive practices or cartels imposed by countries can affect companies and industries crystallizing the exposure

Foreign Debt and the Balance of Trade

19

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Foreign debt especially if it is very large can be a tremendous burden on an economy India pays around $ 5 billion a year in principal repayments and interest payments InflationInflation has an enormous effect in the economy Within the country it erodes purchasing power As a consequence demand falls If the rate of inflation in the country from which a company imports is high then the cost of production in that country will automatically go up

The Threat of NationalizationThe threat of nationalization is a real threat in many countries ndash the fear that a company may become nationalized

Interest RatesA low interest rate stimulates investment and industry Conversely high interest rates result in higher cost of production and lower consumption

TaxationThe level of taxation in a country has a direct effect on the economy If tax rates are low people have more disposable income

Government PolicyGovernment policy has a direct impact on the economy A government that is perceived to be proindustry will attract investment

THE ECONOMIC CYCLE

It affects investment decisions employment demand and the profitability of companiesThe four stages of an economic cycle are DepressionRecoveryBoom Recession DepressionAt the time of depression demand is low and falling Inflation is high and so are interest rates Companies crippled by high borrowing and falling sales are forced to curtail production close down plants built at times of higher demand and let workers go

RecoveryDuring this phase the economy begins to recover Investment begins anew and the demand grows Companies begin to post profits Conspicuous spending begins once again

Boom

20

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

In the boom phase demand reaches an all time high Investment is also high Interest rates are low Gradually as time goes on supply begins to exceed the demand Prices that had been rising begin to stabilize and even fall There is an increase in demand Then as the boom period matures prices begin to rise again

RecessionThe economy slowly begins to downturn Demand starts falling Interest rates and inflation are high Companies start finding it difficult to sell their goods The economy slowly begins to downturn

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

The importance of industry analysis is now dawning on the Indian investor as never before

CycleThe first step in industry is to determine the cycle it is in or the stage of maturity of the industry All industries evolve through the following stages1 Entrepreneurial sunrise or nascent stage2 Expansion or growth stage3 Stabilization stagnation or maturity stage and4 Decline or sunset stage to properly establish itself In the early days it may actually make losses

The Entrepreneurial or Nascent Stage

21

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

At the first stage the industry is new and it can take some time for it to properly establish itself

The Expansion or Growth StageOnce the industry has established itself it enters a growth stage As the industry grows many new companies enter the industry

The Stabilization or Maturity StageAfter the halcyon days of growth an industry matures and stabilizes Rewards are low and so too is the risk Growth is moderate Though sales may increase they do so at a slower rate than before Products are more standardized and less innovative and there are several competitors

The Decline or Sunset StageFinally the industry declines This occurs when its products are no longer popular This may be on account of several factors such as a change in social habits The film and video industries

1 BARRIER TO ENTRYNew entrants increase the capacity in an industry and the inflow of funds The question that arises is how easy is it to enter an industry There are some barriers to entry

a) Economies of scaleb) Product differentiation c) Capital requirementd) Switching costse) Access to distribution channelsf) Cost disadvantages independent of scaleg) Government policyh) Expected retaliationj) International cartels

2 THE THREAT OF SUBSTITUTIONNew inventions are always taking place and new and better products replace existing ones An industry that can be replaced by substitutes or is threatened by substitutes is normally an industry one must be careful of investing in An industry where this occurs constantly is the packaging industry -bottles replaced by cans cans replaced by plastic bottles and the like To ward off the threat of substitution companies often have to spend large sums of money in advertising and promotion

3 BARGAINING POWER OF THE BUYERSIn an industry where buyers have control ie in a buyers market buyers are constantly forcing prices down demanding better services or higher quality and this often erodes profitability The factors one should check are whether

22

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

a) A particular buyer buys most of the products (large purchase volumes) If such buyers withdraw their patronage they can destroy an industry They can also force prices downb) Buyers can play one company against another to bring prices down

4 BARGAINING POWER FOR THE SUPPLIERSAn industry unduly controlled by its suppliers is also under threat This occurs whena) The suppliers have a monopoly or if there are few suppliersb) Suppliers control an essential c) Demand for the product exceeds d) The supplier supplies to various industriese) The switching costs are highf) The suppliers product does not have a substituteg) The suppliers product is an important input for the buyersh) The buyer is not important to the supplieri) The suppliers product is unique

5 RIVALRY AMONG COMPETITORSRivalry among competitors can cause an industry great harm This occurs mainly by price cuts heavy advertising additional high cost services or offers and the like This rivalry occurs mainly whena) There are many competitors and supply exceeds demand Companies resort to price cuts and advertise heavily in order to attract customers for their goodsb) The industry growth is slow and companies are competing with each other for a greater market sharec) The economy is in a recession and companies cut the price of their products and offer better service to stimulate demandd) There is lack of differentiation between the product of one company and that of another In such cases the buyer makes his choice on the basis of price or servicee) In some industries economies of scale will necessitate large additions to existing capacities in a company The increase in production could result in over capacity amp price cuttingf) Competitors may have very different strategies in selling their goods and in competing they may be continuously trying to stay ahead

III COMPANY ANALYSIS

At the final stage of fundamental analysis the investor analyzes the company This analysis has two thrustsHow has the company performed vis-agrave-vis other similar companies and How has the company performed in comparison to earlier years It is imperative that one completes the politico economic analysis and the industry analysis before a company is analyzed because the companys performance at a period of time is to an extent a reflection of the economy the political situation and the industry What does one look at when analyzing a company The different issues regarding a company that should be examined are The Management

23

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The Company The Annual Report Ratios Cash flow

THE MANAGEMENT

The single most important factor one should consider when investing in a company and one often never considered is its management In India management can be broadlydivided in two types Family Management Professional Management

THE COMPANY

An aspect not necessarily examined during an analysis of fundamentals is the company A company may have made losses consecutively for two years or more and one may not wish to touch its shares - yet it may be a good company and worth purchasing into There are several factors one should look at

1 How a company is perceived by its competitorsOne of the key factors to ascertain is how a company is perceived by its competitors It is held in high regard Its management may be known for its maturity vision competence and aggressiveness The investor must ascertain the reason and then determine whetherthe reason will continue into the foreseeable future

2 Whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segmentAnother aspect that should be ascertained is whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segment When you invest in market leaders the risk is less Theshares of market leaders do not fall as quickly as those of other companies There is a magic to their name that would make individuals prefer to buy their products as opposed to others

3 Company PoliciesThe policy a company follows is also important What is its plans for growth What is its vision Every company has a life If it is allowed to live a normal life it will grow upto a point and then begin to level out and eventually die It is at the point of leveling out that it must be given new life This can give it renewed vigour and a new lease of life

4 Labour RelationsLabour relations are extremely important A company that has motivated industrious work force has high productivity and practically no disruption of work On the other hand a company that has bad industrial relations will lose several hundred mandays as a consequence of strikes and go slows

24

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

5 Where the company is located and where its factories are One must also consider where the companies Plants and Factories are located

THE ANNUAL REPORT

The primary and most important source of information about a company is its Annual Report By law this is prepared every year and distributed to the shareholders Annual Reports are usually very well presented A tremendous amount of data is given about the performance of a company over a period of time The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific partsA) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the Accounts

A The Directorrsquos ReportThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship 1 It enunciates the opinion of the directors on the state of the economy and the political situation vis-agrave-vis the company 2 Explains the performance and the financial results of the company in the period under review This is an extremely important part The results and operations of the various separate divisions are usually detailed and investors can determine the reasons for their good or bad performance3 The Directorrsquos Report details the companys plans for modernization expansion and diversification Without these a company will remain static and eventually decline4 Discusses the profit earned in the period under review and the dividend Recommended by the directors This paragraph should normally be read with some skepticism as the directors will always argue that the performance was satisfactory If adverse economic conditions are usually at fault 5 Elaborates on the directors views of the companys prospects in the future6 Discusses plans for new acquisition and investments An investor must intelligently evaluate the issues raised in a Directorrsquos Report Industry conditions and the managements knowledge of the business must be considered

B The Auditors ReportThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors Auditors are required to report whether the financial statements presented do in fact present a true and fair view of the state of the company Investors must remember that the auditors are their representatives and that they are required by law to point out if the financial statements are not true and fair

CFinancial Statements

25

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The published financial statements of a company in an Annual Report consist of its Balance Sheet as at the end of the accounting period detailing the financing condition of the company at that date and the Profit and Loss Account or Income Statement summarizing the activities of the company for the accounting period

BALANCE SHEETThe Balance Sheet details the financial position of a company on a particular date of the companys assets (that which the company owns) and liabilities (that which the companyowes) grouped logically under specific heads It must however be noted that the Balance Sheet details the financial position on a particular day and that the position can be materially different on the next day or the day after

PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNTThe Profit and Loss account summarizes the activities of a company during an accounting period which may be a month a quarter six months a year or longer and the result achieved by the company It details the income earned by the company its cost and the resulting profit or loss It is in effect the performance appraisal not only of the company but also of its management- its competence foresight and ability to lead

RATIOS

Ratios express mathematically the relationship between performance figures andor assetsliabilities in a form that can be easily understood and interpretedNo single ratio tells the complete storyRatios can be broken down into four broad categories

26

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(A) Profit and Loss RatiosThese show the relationship between two items or groups of items in a profit and loss account or income statement The more common of these ratios are1 Sales to cost of goods sold2 Selling expenses to sales3 Net profit to sales and4 Gross profit to sales

(B) Balance Sheet RatiosThese deal with the relationship in the balance sheet such as 1 Shareholders equity to borrowed funds2 Current assets to current liabilities3 Liabilities to net worth4 Debt to assets and5 Liabilities to assets

(C) Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Account RatiosThese relate an item on the balance sheet to another in the profit and loss account such as1 Earnings to shareholders funds2 Net income to assets employed3 Sales to stock4 Sales to debtors and5 Cost of goods sold to creditors

(D) Financial Statements and Market RatiosThese are normally known as market ratios and are arrived at by relative financial figures to market prices1 Market value to earnings and2 Book value to market value(a) Market value(b) Earnings(c) Profitability(d) Liquidity(e) Leverage(f) Debt Service Capacity(g) Asset ManagementEfficiency(h) Margins

The major ratios that are considered(i) Market value(ii) Price- earnings ratio(iii) Market-to-book ratio(iv) Earnings(v) Earning per share(vi) Dividend per share

27

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(vii) Dividend payout ratio(viii) Leverage ratios(ix) Return on investmentstotal assets

CASH FLOW A statement of sources and uses begins with the profit for the year to which are added the increases in liability accounts (sources) and from which are reduced the increases in asset accounts (uses) The net result shows whether there has been an excess or deficit of funds and how this was financed Investors must examine a companys cash flow as it reveals exactly where the money came from how it was utilized Investors must be concerned if a company is financing either its inventories or paying dividends from borrowings without real growth as that shows deterioration

CHAPTER-4 ANALYSIS

29

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

I FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF STOCKS

Basically fundamental analysis is covered in 3 parts

1 Market economy analysis

2 Industry Analysis

3 Company Analysis

1) TATA MOTORS

I Market Economy Analysis

It covers the macro economy analysis and the various macro economic factors on the national level like GDP Monetary policies of India Fiscal Policies and Inflation and money supply etc

GDP

Real GDP growth accelerated from 75 per cent during 2004-05 to 84 per cent during

2005-06 on the back of buoyant manufacturing and services activity supported by a

recovery in the agricultural sector Real GDP growth has thus averaged over eight per

cent during the last three years and over seven per cent in the first four years (2002-03 to

2005-06) of the Tenth Five Year Plan

Strengths of India today are

30

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A well diversified industrial base which profits from self-reliance in all core industries A

large amp sophisticated financial architecture - The robust capital Markets today have over

9000 listed companies and boast of a massive Market capitalization

A healthy GDP composition with agriculture contributing 22 Industry 22 and

services which have gone strength to strength accounting For 56 of the GDP an

acknowledged strength in knowledge driven industries like Information technology

biotechnology entertainment Software etc

India has Over 3 million scientific amp technical manpower Over 06 million SampT post

graduates Over 07 million graduate engineers Over 3500 doctorates in sciences every

year

Assuming trend growth in agriculture under normal monsoon conditions and barring

domestic or external shocks the Reserve Bank in its Annual Policy Statement for 2007-

08 (April 2007) placed real GDP growth for policy purposes in the range of 75-80 per

cent during 2007-08 Growth prospects are however subject to a number of downside

risks The risks emanating from the global economy are potential escalation and

volatility in international crude oil prices firming up of overall inflationary pressures and

expectations and a hardening of international interest rates along with the withdrawal of

monetary accommodation

Indiarsquos demographic advantage ndash In contrast to developed Countries India will have a

younger population for the next 50 years Hence India would be the hub for RampD

Inflation

Inflation was contained to 63 per cent by end-March 2007 within the indicative

trajectory of 50-55 per cent during 2007-08 The actual inflation was considerably lower

than the indicative trajectory and this could be mainly attributed to the deferred pass-

through of even the cognisable permanent component of international crude oil prices

Money Supply

31

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Monetary and liquidity conditions remained largely comfortable during 2006-07reflecting

proactive liquidity management operations by the Reserve Bank under the liquidity

adjustment facility flexible management of issuances under the market stabilisation

scheme and some private placement of Government securities

In short the Indian economy is exhibiting strong fundamentals and displaying

considerable resilience At the same time there are continuing signs of demand pressures

especially high credit growth that could exert upward pressure on prices when associated

with supply shocks such as from oil These pressures have the potential for impacting

stability and inflation expectations While domestic developments continue to dominate

the economy global factors tend to gain more attention now than before The global

outlook for growth is positive but downside risks in regard to inflation also RBI is

applying new repo and reverse repo for the balance of inflation and monetary policies

The following are macroeconomic policies generally found as part of government-

directed industrial auto policies

(a) Restrictions on domestic and foreign investment

(b) Domestic content requirements

(c) High tariff walls

(d) Auto export requirements

(e) National production to sales ratios

(f) Distribution controls

(g) Quotas and licensing requirements that significantly restrict imports

(h) Government approval for product related decisions including vehicle make

body type engine size etc

(i) Special government categories for auto taxes

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry Today it is

amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output multiplier of

224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy) In recent

32

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

years we have seen increasing number of global players entering Indian market by way of

Joint ventures collaborations or wholly owned subsidiary

The automobile industry is torn between trying to reduce costs on the one hand and on

the other dealing with the high price of performance-enhancing technology and

environmental compliance Key drivers in the automotive industry are

Reducing air pollution

Reduction of weight

Recyclability

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

The automobile market is at the maturity stage of the life cycle locally and globally due

connectivity to ports cities and villages through a network of highways and

interconnecting roads by 2010-11 Improved road network would help in faster

34

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

movement of goods between various cities and towns The Company launched TATA

Novus range of vehicles in the heavy segment and TATA ACE for last mile distribution

Car penetration in India Car penetration in India is 7 cars per 1000 persons

International In FY 2006-07 the Company increased share of its overseas vehicle sales

from 76 last year to record high of 111 (as of its total sales) and has planned

further increase in this year

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

SWOT ANALYSIS

STRENGHS

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

CHAPTER- 2

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

A CONCEPTUAL OVERVIEW

9

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

Technical analysis can be conditionally divided into some main parts such as

Types of charts Graphical methods Analytical methods Technical indicators

Technical analysis is concerned with predicting future price trends from historical price and volume data The underlying axiom of technical analysis is that all fundamentals (including expectations) are factored into the market and are reflected in exchange rates

A technical analysis is based on three axioms

Movement of the market considers everything Movement of prices is purposeful History repeats itself

SUPPORT AND RESISTANCE

Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

Resistance on the other hand is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher The price at which a trade takes place is the price at which a bull and bear agree to do business It represents the consensus of their expectations

10

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Support levels indicate the price where the most of investors believe that prices will move higher Resistance levels indicate the price at which the most of investors feel prices will move lower

Role Reversal

When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

31 DOW THEORYndash TRENDS

The ideas of Charles Dow the first editor of the Wall Street Journal form the basis of technical analysis The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages Dow created the Industrial Average of top blue chip stocks and a second average of top railroad stocks (now the Transport Average) He believed that the behavior of the averages reflected the hopes and fears of the entire market The behavior patterns that he observed apply to markets throughout the world

Three Movements

Markets fluctuate in more than one time frame at the same time

11

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Nothing is more certain than that the market has three well defined movements which fit into each other

The first is the daily variation due to local causes and the balance of buying and

selling at that particular time

The secondary movement covers a period ranging from ten days to sixty days

averaging probably between thirty and forty days

The third move is the great swing covering from four to six years

Bull markets are broad upward movements of the market that may last several

years interrupted by secondary reactions Bear markets are long declines

interrupted by secondary rallies These movements are referred to as the primary

trend

Secondary movements normally retrace from one third to two thirds of the

primary trend since the previous secondary movement

Daily fluctuations are important for short-term trading but are unimportant in

analysis of broad market movements

Various cycles have subsequently been identified within these broad categories

Primary Movements have Three Phases

The general conditions in the market

Bull markets

Bull markets commence with reviving confidence as business conditions improve

Prices rise as the market responds to improved earnings

12

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Rampant speculation dominates the market and price advances are based on hopes and

expectations rather than actual results

Bear markets

Bear markets start with abandonment of the hopes and expectations that sustained

inflated prices

Prices decline in response to disappointing earnings

Distress selling follows as speculators attempt to close out their positions and

securities are sold without regard to their true value

Ranging Markets

A secondary reaction may take the form of a lsquolinersquo which may endure for several weeks Price fluctuates within a narrow range of about five per cent

Breakouts from a range can occur in either direction

Advances above the upper limit of the line signal accumulation and higher prices

Declines below the lower limit indicate distribution and lower prices

Volume is used to confirm price breakouts

Trends

Bull Trends

A bull trend is identified by a series of rallies where each rally exceeds the highest point of the previous rally The decline between rallies ends above the lowest point of the previous decline

Successive higher highs and higher lows

13

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

Start = higher Low + break above previous High

The end is signaled by a lower high (peak) followed by a decline below the previous low (trough)

End = lower High + break below previous Low

A bear trend starts at the end of a bull trend when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

Large Corrections

A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

14

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A bull trend starts when price rallies above the previous high

A bull trend ends when price declines below the previous low

A bear trend starts at the end of a bull trend (and vice versa)

32 ELLIOT WAVES THEORY BASICS

TRENDLINES

Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations (which causes supplydemand lines to shift)

15

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

An Uptrend is defined by successively higher low-prices A rising trend can be thought of as a rising support level the bulls are in control and are pushing prices higher A Downtrend is defined by successively lower high-prices A falling trend can be thought of as a falling resistance level the bears are in control and are pushing prices lower

33 MOVING AVERAGES

Moving averages are one of the oldest and most popular technical analysis tools A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument over a given time

The moving average represents the consensus of investorrsquos expectations over the indicated period of time

The classic interpretation of a moving average is to use it in observing changes in prices Investors typically buy when the price of an instrument rises above its moving average and sell when the it falls below its moving average

TECHNICAL INDICATORS

There is a vast number of elaborated technical indicators

CHAPTER- 3

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS

A CONCEPTUAL OVERVIEW

18

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Fundamental analysis refers to the study of the core underlying elements that influence the economy of a particular entity It is a method of study that attempts to predict price action and market trends by analyzing economic indicators government policy and societal factors (to name just a few elements) within a business cycle framework

I ECONOMIC ANALYSIS

POLITICO-ECONOMIC ANALYSIS No industry or company can exist in isolation It may have splendid managers and a tremendous product However its sales and its costs are affected by factors some of which are beyond its control - the world economy price inflation taxes and a host of others It is important therefore to have an appreciation of the politico-economic factors that affect an industry and a company

The political equationA stable political environment is necessary for steady balanced growth If a country is ruled by a stable government which takes decisions for the long-term development of the country industry and companies will prosper Foreign Exchange ReservesA country needs foreign exchange reserves to meet its commitments pay for its imports and service foreign debts

Foreign Exchange RiskThis is a real risk and one must be cognizant of the effect of a revaluation or devaluation of the currency either in the home country or in the country the company deals in

Restrictive PracticesRestrictive practices or cartels imposed by countries can affect companies and industries crystallizing the exposure

Foreign Debt and the Balance of Trade

19

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Foreign debt especially if it is very large can be a tremendous burden on an economy India pays around $ 5 billion a year in principal repayments and interest payments InflationInflation has an enormous effect in the economy Within the country it erodes purchasing power As a consequence demand falls If the rate of inflation in the country from which a company imports is high then the cost of production in that country will automatically go up

The Threat of NationalizationThe threat of nationalization is a real threat in many countries ndash the fear that a company may become nationalized

Interest RatesA low interest rate stimulates investment and industry Conversely high interest rates result in higher cost of production and lower consumption

TaxationThe level of taxation in a country has a direct effect on the economy If tax rates are low people have more disposable income

Government PolicyGovernment policy has a direct impact on the economy A government that is perceived to be proindustry will attract investment

THE ECONOMIC CYCLE

It affects investment decisions employment demand and the profitability of companiesThe four stages of an economic cycle are DepressionRecoveryBoom Recession DepressionAt the time of depression demand is low and falling Inflation is high and so are interest rates Companies crippled by high borrowing and falling sales are forced to curtail production close down plants built at times of higher demand and let workers go

RecoveryDuring this phase the economy begins to recover Investment begins anew and the demand grows Companies begin to post profits Conspicuous spending begins once again

Boom

20

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

In the boom phase demand reaches an all time high Investment is also high Interest rates are low Gradually as time goes on supply begins to exceed the demand Prices that had been rising begin to stabilize and even fall There is an increase in demand Then as the boom period matures prices begin to rise again

RecessionThe economy slowly begins to downturn Demand starts falling Interest rates and inflation are high Companies start finding it difficult to sell their goods The economy slowly begins to downturn

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

The importance of industry analysis is now dawning on the Indian investor as never before

CycleThe first step in industry is to determine the cycle it is in or the stage of maturity of the industry All industries evolve through the following stages1 Entrepreneurial sunrise or nascent stage2 Expansion or growth stage3 Stabilization stagnation or maturity stage and4 Decline or sunset stage to properly establish itself In the early days it may actually make losses

The Entrepreneurial or Nascent Stage

21

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

At the first stage the industry is new and it can take some time for it to properly establish itself

The Expansion or Growth StageOnce the industry has established itself it enters a growth stage As the industry grows many new companies enter the industry

The Stabilization or Maturity StageAfter the halcyon days of growth an industry matures and stabilizes Rewards are low and so too is the risk Growth is moderate Though sales may increase they do so at a slower rate than before Products are more standardized and less innovative and there are several competitors

The Decline or Sunset StageFinally the industry declines This occurs when its products are no longer popular This may be on account of several factors such as a change in social habits The film and video industries

1 BARRIER TO ENTRYNew entrants increase the capacity in an industry and the inflow of funds The question that arises is how easy is it to enter an industry There are some barriers to entry

a) Economies of scaleb) Product differentiation c) Capital requirementd) Switching costse) Access to distribution channelsf) Cost disadvantages independent of scaleg) Government policyh) Expected retaliationj) International cartels

2 THE THREAT OF SUBSTITUTIONNew inventions are always taking place and new and better products replace existing ones An industry that can be replaced by substitutes or is threatened by substitutes is normally an industry one must be careful of investing in An industry where this occurs constantly is the packaging industry -bottles replaced by cans cans replaced by plastic bottles and the like To ward off the threat of substitution companies often have to spend large sums of money in advertising and promotion

3 BARGAINING POWER OF THE BUYERSIn an industry where buyers have control ie in a buyers market buyers are constantly forcing prices down demanding better services or higher quality and this often erodes profitability The factors one should check are whether

22

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

a) A particular buyer buys most of the products (large purchase volumes) If such buyers withdraw their patronage they can destroy an industry They can also force prices downb) Buyers can play one company against another to bring prices down

4 BARGAINING POWER FOR THE SUPPLIERSAn industry unduly controlled by its suppliers is also under threat This occurs whena) The suppliers have a monopoly or if there are few suppliersb) Suppliers control an essential c) Demand for the product exceeds d) The supplier supplies to various industriese) The switching costs are highf) The suppliers product does not have a substituteg) The suppliers product is an important input for the buyersh) The buyer is not important to the supplieri) The suppliers product is unique

5 RIVALRY AMONG COMPETITORSRivalry among competitors can cause an industry great harm This occurs mainly by price cuts heavy advertising additional high cost services or offers and the like This rivalry occurs mainly whena) There are many competitors and supply exceeds demand Companies resort to price cuts and advertise heavily in order to attract customers for their goodsb) The industry growth is slow and companies are competing with each other for a greater market sharec) The economy is in a recession and companies cut the price of their products and offer better service to stimulate demandd) There is lack of differentiation between the product of one company and that of another In such cases the buyer makes his choice on the basis of price or servicee) In some industries economies of scale will necessitate large additions to existing capacities in a company The increase in production could result in over capacity amp price cuttingf) Competitors may have very different strategies in selling their goods and in competing they may be continuously trying to stay ahead

III COMPANY ANALYSIS

At the final stage of fundamental analysis the investor analyzes the company This analysis has two thrustsHow has the company performed vis-agrave-vis other similar companies and How has the company performed in comparison to earlier years It is imperative that one completes the politico economic analysis and the industry analysis before a company is analyzed because the companys performance at a period of time is to an extent a reflection of the economy the political situation and the industry What does one look at when analyzing a company The different issues regarding a company that should be examined are The Management

23

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The Company The Annual Report Ratios Cash flow

THE MANAGEMENT

The single most important factor one should consider when investing in a company and one often never considered is its management In India management can be broadlydivided in two types Family Management Professional Management

THE COMPANY

An aspect not necessarily examined during an analysis of fundamentals is the company A company may have made losses consecutively for two years or more and one may not wish to touch its shares - yet it may be a good company and worth purchasing into There are several factors one should look at

1 How a company is perceived by its competitorsOne of the key factors to ascertain is how a company is perceived by its competitors It is held in high regard Its management may be known for its maturity vision competence and aggressiveness The investor must ascertain the reason and then determine whetherthe reason will continue into the foreseeable future

2 Whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segmentAnother aspect that should be ascertained is whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segment When you invest in market leaders the risk is less Theshares of market leaders do not fall as quickly as those of other companies There is a magic to their name that would make individuals prefer to buy their products as opposed to others

3 Company PoliciesThe policy a company follows is also important What is its plans for growth What is its vision Every company has a life If it is allowed to live a normal life it will grow upto a point and then begin to level out and eventually die It is at the point of leveling out that it must be given new life This can give it renewed vigour and a new lease of life

4 Labour RelationsLabour relations are extremely important A company that has motivated industrious work force has high productivity and practically no disruption of work On the other hand a company that has bad industrial relations will lose several hundred mandays as a consequence of strikes and go slows

24

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

5 Where the company is located and where its factories are One must also consider where the companies Plants and Factories are located

THE ANNUAL REPORT

The primary and most important source of information about a company is its Annual Report By law this is prepared every year and distributed to the shareholders Annual Reports are usually very well presented A tremendous amount of data is given about the performance of a company over a period of time The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific partsA) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the Accounts

A The Directorrsquos ReportThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship 1 It enunciates the opinion of the directors on the state of the economy and the political situation vis-agrave-vis the company 2 Explains the performance and the financial results of the company in the period under review This is an extremely important part The results and operations of the various separate divisions are usually detailed and investors can determine the reasons for their good or bad performance3 The Directorrsquos Report details the companys plans for modernization expansion and diversification Without these a company will remain static and eventually decline4 Discusses the profit earned in the period under review and the dividend Recommended by the directors This paragraph should normally be read with some skepticism as the directors will always argue that the performance was satisfactory If adverse economic conditions are usually at fault 5 Elaborates on the directors views of the companys prospects in the future6 Discusses plans for new acquisition and investments An investor must intelligently evaluate the issues raised in a Directorrsquos Report Industry conditions and the managements knowledge of the business must be considered

B The Auditors ReportThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors Auditors are required to report whether the financial statements presented do in fact present a true and fair view of the state of the company Investors must remember that the auditors are their representatives and that they are required by law to point out if the financial statements are not true and fair

CFinancial Statements

25

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The published financial statements of a company in an Annual Report consist of its Balance Sheet as at the end of the accounting period detailing the financing condition of the company at that date and the Profit and Loss Account or Income Statement summarizing the activities of the company for the accounting period

BALANCE SHEETThe Balance Sheet details the financial position of a company on a particular date of the companys assets (that which the company owns) and liabilities (that which the companyowes) grouped logically under specific heads It must however be noted that the Balance Sheet details the financial position on a particular day and that the position can be materially different on the next day or the day after

PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNTThe Profit and Loss account summarizes the activities of a company during an accounting period which may be a month a quarter six months a year or longer and the result achieved by the company It details the income earned by the company its cost and the resulting profit or loss It is in effect the performance appraisal not only of the company but also of its management- its competence foresight and ability to lead

RATIOS

Ratios express mathematically the relationship between performance figures andor assetsliabilities in a form that can be easily understood and interpretedNo single ratio tells the complete storyRatios can be broken down into four broad categories

26

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(A) Profit and Loss RatiosThese show the relationship between two items or groups of items in a profit and loss account or income statement The more common of these ratios are1 Sales to cost of goods sold2 Selling expenses to sales3 Net profit to sales and4 Gross profit to sales

(B) Balance Sheet RatiosThese deal with the relationship in the balance sheet such as 1 Shareholders equity to borrowed funds2 Current assets to current liabilities3 Liabilities to net worth4 Debt to assets and5 Liabilities to assets

(C) Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Account RatiosThese relate an item on the balance sheet to another in the profit and loss account such as1 Earnings to shareholders funds2 Net income to assets employed3 Sales to stock4 Sales to debtors and5 Cost of goods sold to creditors

(D) Financial Statements and Market RatiosThese are normally known as market ratios and are arrived at by relative financial figures to market prices1 Market value to earnings and2 Book value to market value(a) Market value(b) Earnings(c) Profitability(d) Liquidity(e) Leverage(f) Debt Service Capacity(g) Asset ManagementEfficiency(h) Margins

The major ratios that are considered(i) Market value(ii) Price- earnings ratio(iii) Market-to-book ratio(iv) Earnings(v) Earning per share(vi) Dividend per share

27

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(vii) Dividend payout ratio(viii) Leverage ratios(ix) Return on investmentstotal assets

CASH FLOW A statement of sources and uses begins with the profit for the year to which are added the increases in liability accounts (sources) and from which are reduced the increases in asset accounts (uses) The net result shows whether there has been an excess or deficit of funds and how this was financed Investors must examine a companys cash flow as it reveals exactly where the money came from how it was utilized Investors must be concerned if a company is financing either its inventories or paying dividends from borrowings without real growth as that shows deterioration

CHAPTER-4 ANALYSIS

29

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

I FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF STOCKS

Basically fundamental analysis is covered in 3 parts

1 Market economy analysis

2 Industry Analysis

3 Company Analysis

1) TATA MOTORS

I Market Economy Analysis

It covers the macro economy analysis and the various macro economic factors on the national level like GDP Monetary policies of India Fiscal Policies and Inflation and money supply etc

GDP

Real GDP growth accelerated from 75 per cent during 2004-05 to 84 per cent during

2005-06 on the back of buoyant manufacturing and services activity supported by a

recovery in the agricultural sector Real GDP growth has thus averaged over eight per

cent during the last three years and over seven per cent in the first four years (2002-03 to

2005-06) of the Tenth Five Year Plan

Strengths of India today are

30

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A well diversified industrial base which profits from self-reliance in all core industries A

large amp sophisticated financial architecture - The robust capital Markets today have over

9000 listed companies and boast of a massive Market capitalization

A healthy GDP composition with agriculture contributing 22 Industry 22 and

services which have gone strength to strength accounting For 56 of the GDP an

acknowledged strength in knowledge driven industries like Information technology

biotechnology entertainment Software etc

India has Over 3 million scientific amp technical manpower Over 06 million SampT post

graduates Over 07 million graduate engineers Over 3500 doctorates in sciences every

year

Assuming trend growth in agriculture under normal monsoon conditions and barring

domestic or external shocks the Reserve Bank in its Annual Policy Statement for 2007-

08 (April 2007) placed real GDP growth for policy purposes in the range of 75-80 per

cent during 2007-08 Growth prospects are however subject to a number of downside

risks The risks emanating from the global economy are potential escalation and

volatility in international crude oil prices firming up of overall inflationary pressures and

expectations and a hardening of international interest rates along with the withdrawal of

monetary accommodation

Indiarsquos demographic advantage ndash In contrast to developed Countries India will have a

younger population for the next 50 years Hence India would be the hub for RampD

Inflation

Inflation was contained to 63 per cent by end-March 2007 within the indicative

trajectory of 50-55 per cent during 2007-08 The actual inflation was considerably lower

than the indicative trajectory and this could be mainly attributed to the deferred pass-

through of even the cognisable permanent component of international crude oil prices

Money Supply

31

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Monetary and liquidity conditions remained largely comfortable during 2006-07reflecting

proactive liquidity management operations by the Reserve Bank under the liquidity

adjustment facility flexible management of issuances under the market stabilisation

scheme and some private placement of Government securities

In short the Indian economy is exhibiting strong fundamentals and displaying

considerable resilience At the same time there are continuing signs of demand pressures

especially high credit growth that could exert upward pressure on prices when associated

with supply shocks such as from oil These pressures have the potential for impacting

stability and inflation expectations While domestic developments continue to dominate

the economy global factors tend to gain more attention now than before The global

outlook for growth is positive but downside risks in regard to inflation also RBI is

applying new repo and reverse repo for the balance of inflation and monetary policies

The following are macroeconomic policies generally found as part of government-

directed industrial auto policies

(a) Restrictions on domestic and foreign investment

(b) Domestic content requirements

(c) High tariff walls

(d) Auto export requirements

(e) National production to sales ratios

(f) Distribution controls

(g) Quotas and licensing requirements that significantly restrict imports

(h) Government approval for product related decisions including vehicle make

body type engine size etc

(i) Special government categories for auto taxes

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry Today it is

amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output multiplier of

224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy) In recent

32

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

years we have seen increasing number of global players entering Indian market by way of

Joint ventures collaborations or wholly owned subsidiary

The automobile industry is torn between trying to reduce costs on the one hand and on

the other dealing with the high price of performance-enhancing technology and

environmental compliance Key drivers in the automotive industry are

Reducing air pollution

Reduction of weight

Recyclability

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

The automobile market is at the maturity stage of the life cycle locally and globally due

to an increased number of competitors from domestic and foreign markets The

automobile market is characterized by a low potential for market growth but high sales

and profit potential as the products have still not saturated the market as a whole

Opportunities and Threats

a) Opportunities

Road Development The ongoing road development program would improve

connectivity to ports cities and villages through a network of highways and

interconnecting roads by 2010-11 Improved road network would help in faster

34

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

movement of goods between various cities and towns The Company launched TATA

Novus range of vehicles in the heavy segment and TATA ACE for last mile distribution

Car penetration in India Car penetration in India is 7 cars per 1000 persons

International In FY 2006-07 the Company increased share of its overseas vehicle sales

from 76 last year to record high of 111 (as of its total sales) and has planned

further increase in this year

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

PORTERrsquoS MODEL

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

COMPANY ANALYSIS

The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific parts

A) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the AccountsATHE DIRECTORrsquoS REPORTThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship Fundamental AnalysisB THE AUDITORS REPORTThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors

C FINANCIAL STATEMENTSIt comprises of Balance Sheet Profit and Loss account Cash Flows Its analysis would be discussed later

DSCHEDULESThe schedules detail pertinent information about the items of Balance Sheet and Profit amp Loss Account It also details information about sales manufacturing costs administration costs interest and other income and expenses

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

Technical analysis can be conditionally divided into some main parts such as

Types of charts Graphical methods Analytical methods Technical indicators

Technical analysis is concerned with predicting future price trends from historical price and volume data The underlying axiom of technical analysis is that all fundamentals (including expectations) are factored into the market and are reflected in exchange rates

A technical analysis is based on three axioms

Movement of the market considers everything Movement of prices is purposeful History repeats itself

SUPPORT AND RESISTANCE

Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

Resistance on the other hand is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher The price at which a trade takes place is the price at which a bull and bear agree to do business It represents the consensus of their expectations

10

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Support levels indicate the price where the most of investors believe that prices will move higher Resistance levels indicate the price at which the most of investors feel prices will move lower

Role Reversal

When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

31 DOW THEORYndash TRENDS

The ideas of Charles Dow the first editor of the Wall Street Journal form the basis of technical analysis The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages Dow created the Industrial Average of top blue chip stocks and a second average of top railroad stocks (now the Transport Average) He believed that the behavior of the averages reflected the hopes and fears of the entire market The behavior patterns that he observed apply to markets throughout the world

Three Movements

Markets fluctuate in more than one time frame at the same time

11

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Nothing is more certain than that the market has three well defined movements which fit into each other

The first is the daily variation due to local causes and the balance of buying and

selling at that particular time

The secondary movement covers a period ranging from ten days to sixty days

averaging probably between thirty and forty days

The third move is the great swing covering from four to six years

Bull markets are broad upward movements of the market that may last several

years interrupted by secondary reactions Bear markets are long declines

interrupted by secondary rallies These movements are referred to as the primary

trend

Secondary movements normally retrace from one third to two thirds of the

primary trend since the previous secondary movement

Daily fluctuations are important for short-term trading but are unimportant in

analysis of broad market movements

Various cycles have subsequently been identified within these broad categories

Primary Movements have Three Phases

The general conditions in the market

Bull markets

Bull markets commence with reviving confidence as business conditions improve

Prices rise as the market responds to improved earnings

12

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Rampant speculation dominates the market and price advances are based on hopes and

expectations rather than actual results

Bear markets

Bear markets start with abandonment of the hopes and expectations that sustained

inflated prices

Prices decline in response to disappointing earnings

Distress selling follows as speculators attempt to close out their positions and

securities are sold without regard to their true value

Ranging Markets

A secondary reaction may take the form of a lsquolinersquo which may endure for several weeks Price fluctuates within a narrow range of about five per cent

Breakouts from a range can occur in either direction

Advances above the upper limit of the line signal accumulation and higher prices

Declines below the lower limit indicate distribution and lower prices

Volume is used to confirm price breakouts

Trends

Bull Trends

A bull trend is identified by a series of rallies where each rally exceeds the highest point of the previous rally The decline between rallies ends above the lowest point of the previous decline

Successive higher highs and higher lows

13

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

Start = higher Low + break above previous High

The end is signaled by a lower high (peak) followed by a decline below the previous low (trough)

End = lower High + break below previous Low

A bear trend starts at the end of a bull trend when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

Large Corrections

A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

14

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A bull trend starts when price rallies above the previous high

A bull trend ends when price declines below the previous low

A bear trend starts at the end of a bull trend (and vice versa)

32 ELLIOT WAVES THEORY BASICS

TRENDLINES

Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations (which causes supplydemand lines to shift)

15

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

An Uptrend is defined by successively higher low-prices A rising trend can be thought of as a rising support level the bulls are in control and are pushing prices higher A Downtrend is defined by successively lower high-prices A falling trend can be thought of as a falling resistance level the bears are in control and are pushing prices lower

33 MOVING AVERAGES

Moving averages are one of the oldest and most popular technical analysis tools A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument over a given time

The moving average represents the consensus of investorrsquos expectations over the indicated period of time

The classic interpretation of a moving average is to use it in observing changes in prices Investors typically buy when the price of an instrument rises above its moving average and sell when the it falls below its moving average

TECHNICAL INDICATORS

There is a vast number of elaborated technical indicators

16

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

MOVING AVERAGE ndashMA RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX mdash RSI The Relative Strength Index

Technical Indicator (RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100 When Wilder introduced the Relative Strength Index he recommended using a 14-day RSI Since then the 9-day and 25-day Relative Strength Index indicators have also gained popularity

ADVANCEDECLINE LINE The ldquoadvancedecline linerdquo shows for some period the cumulative difference between advancing and declining issues

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 shares

HI-LO-CLOSE CHART A hi-lo-close chart is a bar chart showing for each day the high price low price and closing price

CANDLESTICK CHART A candlestick chart is an extended version of the hi-lo-close chart It plots the high low open and closing prices and also shows whether the closing price was above or below the opening price

POINT AND FIGURE CHARTS Point-and-figure charts are a way of showing only major price moves and their direction A ldquomajorrdquo up move is marked with an ldquoXrdquo while a ldquomajorrdquo down move is marked with an ldquoOrdquo A new column starts every time there is a change in direction

HEAD AND SHOULDERS FORMATION Once a chart is drawn analysts examine it for various formations or pattern types in an attempt to predict stock price or market direction in the case of head-and-shoulders formation When the stock price ldquopierces the necklinerdquo after the right shoulder is finished itrsquos time to sell

ODD-LOT The ldquoodd-lotrdquo indicator looks at whether odd-lot purchases are up or down HEMLINE Followers of the ldquohemlinerdquo indicator claim that hemlines tend to rise in good times

SUPER BOWL The Super Bowl indicator forecasts the direction of the market based on whether the National Football Conference or the American Football Conference wins A win by the National Football Conference is bullish

BETA Beta is a risk measure comparing the volatility of a stocks price movement to the general market

CHAPTER- 3

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS

A CONCEPTUAL OVERVIEW

18

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Fundamental analysis refers to the study of the core underlying elements that influence the economy of a particular entity It is a method of study that attempts to predict price action and market trends by analyzing economic indicators government policy and societal factors (to name just a few elements) within a business cycle framework

I ECONOMIC ANALYSIS

POLITICO-ECONOMIC ANALYSIS No industry or company can exist in isolation It may have splendid managers and a tremendous product However its sales and its costs are affected by factors some of which are beyond its control - the world economy price inflation taxes and a host of others It is important therefore to have an appreciation of the politico-economic factors that affect an industry and a company

The political equationA stable political environment is necessary for steady balanced growth If a country is ruled by a stable government which takes decisions for the long-term development of the country industry and companies will prosper Foreign Exchange ReservesA country needs foreign exchange reserves to meet its commitments pay for its imports and service foreign debts

Foreign Exchange RiskThis is a real risk and one must be cognizant of the effect of a revaluation or devaluation of the currency either in the home country or in the country the company deals in

Restrictive PracticesRestrictive practices or cartels imposed by countries can affect companies and industries crystallizing the exposure

Foreign Debt and the Balance of Trade

19

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Foreign debt especially if it is very large can be a tremendous burden on an economy India pays around $ 5 billion a year in principal repayments and interest payments InflationInflation has an enormous effect in the economy Within the country it erodes purchasing power As a consequence demand falls If the rate of inflation in the country from which a company imports is high then the cost of production in that country will automatically go up

The Threat of NationalizationThe threat of nationalization is a real threat in many countries ndash the fear that a company may become nationalized

Interest RatesA low interest rate stimulates investment and industry Conversely high interest rates result in higher cost of production and lower consumption

TaxationThe level of taxation in a country has a direct effect on the economy If tax rates are low people have more disposable income

Government PolicyGovernment policy has a direct impact on the economy A government that is perceived to be proindustry will attract investment

THE ECONOMIC CYCLE

It affects investment decisions employment demand and the profitability of companiesThe four stages of an economic cycle are DepressionRecoveryBoom Recession DepressionAt the time of depression demand is low and falling Inflation is high and so are interest rates Companies crippled by high borrowing and falling sales are forced to curtail production close down plants built at times of higher demand and let workers go

RecoveryDuring this phase the economy begins to recover Investment begins anew and the demand grows Companies begin to post profits Conspicuous spending begins once again

Boom

20

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

In the boom phase demand reaches an all time high Investment is also high Interest rates are low Gradually as time goes on supply begins to exceed the demand Prices that had been rising begin to stabilize and even fall There is an increase in demand Then as the boom period matures prices begin to rise again

RecessionThe economy slowly begins to downturn Demand starts falling Interest rates and inflation are high Companies start finding it difficult to sell their goods The economy slowly begins to downturn

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

The importance of industry analysis is now dawning on the Indian investor as never before

CycleThe first step in industry is to determine the cycle it is in or the stage of maturity of the industry All industries evolve through the following stages1 Entrepreneurial sunrise or nascent stage2 Expansion or growth stage3 Stabilization stagnation or maturity stage and4 Decline or sunset stage to properly establish itself In the early days it may actually make losses

The Entrepreneurial or Nascent Stage

21

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

At the first stage the industry is new and it can take some time for it to properly establish itself

The Expansion or Growth StageOnce the industry has established itself it enters a growth stage As the industry grows many new companies enter the industry

The Stabilization or Maturity StageAfter the halcyon days of growth an industry matures and stabilizes Rewards are low and so too is the risk Growth is moderate Though sales may increase they do so at a slower rate than before Products are more standardized and less innovative and there are several competitors

The Decline or Sunset StageFinally the industry declines This occurs when its products are no longer popular This may be on account of several factors such as a change in social habits The film and video industries

1 BARRIER TO ENTRYNew entrants increase the capacity in an industry and the inflow of funds The question that arises is how easy is it to enter an industry There are some barriers to entry

a) Economies of scaleb) Product differentiation c) Capital requirementd) Switching costse) Access to distribution channelsf) Cost disadvantages independent of scaleg) Government policyh) Expected retaliationj) International cartels

2 THE THREAT OF SUBSTITUTIONNew inventions are always taking place and new and better products replace existing ones An industry that can be replaced by substitutes or is threatened by substitutes is normally an industry one must be careful of investing in An industry where this occurs constantly is the packaging industry -bottles replaced by cans cans replaced by plastic bottles and the like To ward off the threat of substitution companies often have to spend large sums of money in advertising and promotion

3 BARGAINING POWER OF THE BUYERSIn an industry where buyers have control ie in a buyers market buyers are constantly forcing prices down demanding better services or higher quality and this often erodes profitability The factors one should check are whether

22

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

a) A particular buyer buys most of the products (large purchase volumes) If such buyers withdraw their patronage they can destroy an industry They can also force prices downb) Buyers can play one company against another to bring prices down

4 BARGAINING POWER FOR THE SUPPLIERSAn industry unduly controlled by its suppliers is also under threat This occurs whena) The suppliers have a monopoly or if there are few suppliersb) Suppliers control an essential c) Demand for the product exceeds d) The supplier supplies to various industriese) The switching costs are highf) The suppliers product does not have a substituteg) The suppliers product is an important input for the buyersh) The buyer is not important to the supplieri) The suppliers product is unique

5 RIVALRY AMONG COMPETITORSRivalry among competitors can cause an industry great harm This occurs mainly by price cuts heavy advertising additional high cost services or offers and the like This rivalry occurs mainly whena) There are many competitors and supply exceeds demand Companies resort to price cuts and advertise heavily in order to attract customers for their goodsb) The industry growth is slow and companies are competing with each other for a greater market sharec) The economy is in a recession and companies cut the price of their products and offer better service to stimulate demandd) There is lack of differentiation between the product of one company and that of another In such cases the buyer makes his choice on the basis of price or servicee) In some industries economies of scale will necessitate large additions to existing capacities in a company The increase in production could result in over capacity amp price cuttingf) Competitors may have very different strategies in selling their goods and in competing they may be continuously trying to stay ahead

III COMPANY ANALYSIS

At the final stage of fundamental analysis the investor analyzes the company This analysis has two thrustsHow has the company performed vis-agrave-vis other similar companies and How has the company performed in comparison to earlier years It is imperative that one completes the politico economic analysis and the industry analysis before a company is analyzed because the companys performance at a period of time is to an extent a reflection of the economy the political situation and the industry What does one look at when analyzing a company The different issues regarding a company that should be examined are The Management

23

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The Company The Annual Report Ratios Cash flow

THE MANAGEMENT

The single most important factor one should consider when investing in a company and one often never considered is its management In India management can be broadlydivided in two types Family Management Professional Management

THE COMPANY

An aspect not necessarily examined during an analysis of fundamentals is the company A company may have made losses consecutively for two years or more and one may not wish to touch its shares - yet it may be a good company and worth purchasing into There are several factors one should look at

1 How a company is perceived by its competitorsOne of the key factors to ascertain is how a company is perceived by its competitors It is held in high regard Its management may be known for its maturity vision competence and aggressiveness The investor must ascertain the reason and then determine whetherthe reason will continue into the foreseeable future

2 Whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segmentAnother aspect that should be ascertained is whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segment When you invest in market leaders the risk is less Theshares of market leaders do not fall as quickly as those of other companies There is a magic to their name that would make individuals prefer to buy their products as opposed to others

3 Company PoliciesThe policy a company follows is also important What is its plans for growth What is its vision Every company has a life If it is allowed to live a normal life it will grow upto a point and then begin to level out and eventually die It is at the point of leveling out that it must be given new life This can give it renewed vigour and a new lease of life

4 Labour RelationsLabour relations are extremely important A company that has motivated industrious work force has high productivity and practically no disruption of work On the other hand a company that has bad industrial relations will lose several hundred mandays as a consequence of strikes and go slows

24

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

5 Where the company is located and where its factories are One must also consider where the companies Plants and Factories are located

THE ANNUAL REPORT

The primary and most important source of information about a company is its Annual Report By law this is prepared every year and distributed to the shareholders Annual Reports are usually very well presented A tremendous amount of data is given about the performance of a company over a period of time The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific partsA) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the Accounts

A The Directorrsquos ReportThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship 1 It enunciates the opinion of the directors on the state of the economy and the political situation vis-agrave-vis the company 2 Explains the performance and the financial results of the company in the period under review This is an extremely important part The results and operations of the various separate divisions are usually detailed and investors can determine the reasons for their good or bad performance3 The Directorrsquos Report details the companys plans for modernization expansion and diversification Without these a company will remain static and eventually decline4 Discusses the profit earned in the period under review and the dividend Recommended by the directors This paragraph should normally be read with some skepticism as the directors will always argue that the performance was satisfactory If adverse economic conditions are usually at fault 5 Elaborates on the directors views of the companys prospects in the future6 Discusses plans for new acquisition and investments An investor must intelligently evaluate the issues raised in a Directorrsquos Report Industry conditions and the managements knowledge of the business must be considered

B The Auditors ReportThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors Auditors are required to report whether the financial statements presented do in fact present a true and fair view of the state of the company Investors must remember that the auditors are their representatives and that they are required by law to point out if the financial statements are not true and fair

CFinancial Statements

25

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The published financial statements of a company in an Annual Report consist of its Balance Sheet as at the end of the accounting period detailing the financing condition of the company at that date and the Profit and Loss Account or Income Statement summarizing the activities of the company for the accounting period

BALANCE SHEETThe Balance Sheet details the financial position of a company on a particular date of the companys assets (that which the company owns) and liabilities (that which the companyowes) grouped logically under specific heads It must however be noted that the Balance Sheet details the financial position on a particular day and that the position can be materially different on the next day or the day after

PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNTThe Profit and Loss account summarizes the activities of a company during an accounting period which may be a month a quarter six months a year or longer and the result achieved by the company It details the income earned by the company its cost and the resulting profit or loss It is in effect the performance appraisal not only of the company but also of its management- its competence foresight and ability to lead

RATIOS

Ratios express mathematically the relationship between performance figures andor assetsliabilities in a form that can be easily understood and interpretedNo single ratio tells the complete storyRatios can be broken down into four broad categories

26

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(A) Profit and Loss RatiosThese show the relationship between two items or groups of items in a profit and loss account or income statement The more common of these ratios are1 Sales to cost of goods sold2 Selling expenses to sales3 Net profit to sales and4 Gross profit to sales

(B) Balance Sheet RatiosThese deal with the relationship in the balance sheet such as 1 Shareholders equity to borrowed funds2 Current assets to current liabilities3 Liabilities to net worth4 Debt to assets and5 Liabilities to assets

(C) Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Account RatiosThese relate an item on the balance sheet to another in the profit and loss account such as1 Earnings to shareholders funds2 Net income to assets employed3 Sales to stock4 Sales to debtors and5 Cost of goods sold to creditors

(D) Financial Statements and Market RatiosThese are normally known as market ratios and are arrived at by relative financial figures to market prices1 Market value to earnings and2 Book value to market value(a) Market value(b) Earnings(c) Profitability(d) Liquidity(e) Leverage(f) Debt Service Capacity(g) Asset ManagementEfficiency(h) Margins

The major ratios that are considered(i) Market value(ii) Price- earnings ratio(iii) Market-to-book ratio(iv) Earnings(v) Earning per share(vi) Dividend per share

27

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(vii) Dividend payout ratio(viii) Leverage ratios(ix) Return on investmentstotal assets

CASH FLOW A statement of sources and uses begins with the profit for the year to which are added the increases in liability accounts (sources) and from which are reduced the increases in asset accounts (uses) The net result shows whether there has been an excess or deficit of funds and how this was financed Investors must examine a companys cash flow as it reveals exactly where the money came from how it was utilized Investors must be concerned if a company is financing either its inventories or paying dividends from borrowings without real growth as that shows deterioration

CHAPTER-4 ANALYSIS

29

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

I FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF STOCKS

Basically fundamental analysis is covered in 3 parts

1 Market economy analysis

2 Industry Analysis

3 Company Analysis

1) TATA MOTORS

I Market Economy Analysis

It covers the macro economy analysis and the various macro economic factors on the national level like GDP Monetary policies of India Fiscal Policies and Inflation and money supply etc

GDP

Real GDP growth accelerated from 75 per cent during 2004-05 to 84 per cent during

2005-06 on the back of buoyant manufacturing and services activity supported by a

recovery in the agricultural sector Real GDP growth has thus averaged over eight per

cent during the last three years and over seven per cent in the first four years (2002-03 to

2005-06) of the Tenth Five Year Plan

Strengths of India today are

30

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A well diversified industrial base which profits from self-reliance in all core industries A

large amp sophisticated financial architecture - The robust capital Markets today have over

9000 listed companies and boast of a massive Market capitalization

A healthy GDP composition with agriculture contributing 22 Industry 22 and

services which have gone strength to strength accounting For 56 of the GDP an

acknowledged strength in knowledge driven industries like Information technology

biotechnology entertainment Software etc

India has Over 3 million scientific amp technical manpower Over 06 million SampT post

graduates Over 07 million graduate engineers Over 3500 doctorates in sciences every

year

Assuming trend growth in agriculture under normal monsoon conditions and barring

domestic or external shocks the Reserve Bank in its Annual Policy Statement for 2007-

08 (April 2007) placed real GDP growth for policy purposes in the range of 75-80 per

cent during 2007-08 Growth prospects are however subject to a number of downside

risks The risks emanating from the global economy are potential escalation and

volatility in international crude oil prices firming up of overall inflationary pressures and

expectations and a hardening of international interest rates along with the withdrawal of

monetary accommodation

Indiarsquos demographic advantage ndash In contrast to developed Countries India will have a

younger population for the next 50 years Hence India would be the hub for RampD

Inflation

Inflation was contained to 63 per cent by end-March 2007 within the indicative

trajectory of 50-55 per cent during 2007-08 The actual inflation was considerably lower

than the indicative trajectory and this could be mainly attributed to the deferred pass-

through of even the cognisable permanent component of international crude oil prices

Money Supply

31

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Monetary and liquidity conditions remained largely comfortable during 2006-07reflecting

proactive liquidity management operations by the Reserve Bank under the liquidity

adjustment facility flexible management of issuances under the market stabilisation

scheme and some private placement of Government securities

In short the Indian economy is exhibiting strong fundamentals and displaying

considerable resilience At the same time there are continuing signs of demand pressures

especially high credit growth that could exert upward pressure on prices when associated

with supply shocks such as from oil These pressures have the potential for impacting

stability and inflation expectations While domestic developments continue to dominate

the economy global factors tend to gain more attention now than before The global

outlook for growth is positive but downside risks in regard to inflation also RBI is

applying new repo and reverse repo for the balance of inflation and monetary policies

The following are macroeconomic policies generally found as part of government-

directed industrial auto policies

(a) Restrictions on domestic and foreign investment

(b) Domestic content requirements

(c) High tariff walls

(d) Auto export requirements

(e) National production to sales ratios

(f) Distribution controls

(g) Quotas and licensing requirements that significantly restrict imports

(h) Government approval for product related decisions including vehicle make

body type engine size etc

(i) Special government categories for auto taxes

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry Today it is

amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output multiplier of

224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy) In recent

32

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

years we have seen increasing number of global players entering Indian market by way of

Joint ventures collaborations or wholly owned subsidiary

The automobile industry is torn between trying to reduce costs on the one hand and on

the other dealing with the high price of performance-enhancing technology and

environmental compliance Key drivers in the automotive industry are

Reducing air pollution

Reduction of weight

Recyclability

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

The automobile market is at the maturity stage of the life cycle locally and globally due

to an increased number of competitors from domestic and foreign markets The

automobile market is characterized by a low potential for market growth but high sales

and profit potential as the products have still not saturated the market as a whole

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

SWOT ANALYSIS

STRENGHS

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Support levels indicate the price where the most of investors believe that prices will move higher Resistance levels indicate the price at which the most of investors feel prices will move lower

Role Reversal

When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

31 DOW THEORYndash TRENDS

The ideas of Charles Dow the first editor of the Wall Street Journal form the basis of technical analysis The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages Dow created the Industrial Average of top blue chip stocks and a second average of top railroad stocks (now the Transport Average) He believed that the behavior of the averages reflected the hopes and fears of the entire market The behavior patterns that he observed apply to markets throughout the world

Three Movements

Markets fluctuate in more than one time frame at the same time

11

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Nothing is more certain than that the market has three well defined movements which fit into each other

The first is the daily variation due to local causes and the balance of buying and

selling at that particular time

The secondary movement covers a period ranging from ten days to sixty days

averaging probably between thirty and forty days

The third move is the great swing covering from four to six years

Bull markets are broad upward movements of the market that may last several

years interrupted by secondary reactions Bear markets are long declines

interrupted by secondary rallies These movements are referred to as the primary

trend

Secondary movements normally retrace from one third to two thirds of the

primary trend since the previous secondary movement

Daily fluctuations are important for short-term trading but are unimportant in

analysis of broad market movements

Various cycles have subsequently been identified within these broad categories

Primary Movements have Three Phases

The general conditions in the market

Bull markets

Bull markets commence with reviving confidence as business conditions improve

Prices rise as the market responds to improved earnings

12

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Rampant speculation dominates the market and price advances are based on hopes and

expectations rather than actual results

Bear markets

Bear markets start with abandonment of the hopes and expectations that sustained

inflated prices

Prices decline in response to disappointing earnings

Distress selling follows as speculators attempt to close out their positions and

securities are sold without regard to their true value

Ranging Markets

A secondary reaction may take the form of a lsquolinersquo which may endure for several weeks Price fluctuates within a narrow range of about five per cent

Breakouts from a range can occur in either direction

Advances above the upper limit of the line signal accumulation and higher prices

Declines below the lower limit indicate distribution and lower prices

Volume is used to confirm price breakouts

Trends

Bull Trends

A bull trend is identified by a series of rallies where each rally exceeds the highest point of the previous rally The decline between rallies ends above the lowest point of the previous decline

Successive higher highs and higher lows

13

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

Start = higher Low + break above previous High

The end is signaled by a lower high (peak) followed by a decline below the previous low (trough)

End = lower High + break below previous Low

A bear trend starts at the end of a bull trend when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

Large Corrections

A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

14

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A bull trend starts when price rallies above the previous high

A bull trend ends when price declines below the previous low

A bear trend starts at the end of a bull trend (and vice versa)

32 ELLIOT WAVES THEORY BASICS

TRENDLINES

Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations (which causes supplydemand lines to shift)

15

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

An Uptrend is defined by successively higher low-prices A rising trend can be thought of as a rising support level the bulls are in control and are pushing prices higher A Downtrend is defined by successively lower high-prices A falling trend can be thought of as a falling resistance level the bears are in control and are pushing prices lower

33 MOVING AVERAGES

Moving averages are one of the oldest and most popular technical analysis tools A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument over a given time

The moving average represents the consensus of investorrsquos expectations over the indicated period of time

The classic interpretation of a moving average is to use it in observing changes in prices Investors typically buy when the price of an instrument rises above its moving average and sell when the it falls below its moving average

TECHNICAL INDICATORS

There is a vast number of elaborated technical indicators

Technical Indicator (RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100 When Wilder introduced the Relative Strength Index he recommended using a 14-day RSI Since then the 9-day and 25-day Relative Strength Index indicators have also gained popularity

CHAPTER- 3

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS

A CONCEPTUAL OVERVIEW

18

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Fundamental analysis refers to the study of the core underlying elements that influence the economy of a particular entity It is a method of study that attempts to predict price action and market trends by analyzing economic indicators government policy and societal factors (to name just a few elements) within a business cycle framework

I ECONOMIC ANALYSIS

POLITICO-ECONOMIC ANALYSIS No industry or company can exist in isolation It may have splendid managers and a tremendous product However its sales and its costs are affected by factors some of which are beyond its control - the world economy price inflation taxes and a host of others It is important therefore to have an appreciation of the politico-economic factors that affect an industry and a company

The political equationA stable political environment is necessary for steady balanced growth If a country is ruled by a stable government which takes decisions for the long-term development of the country industry and companies will prosper Foreign Exchange ReservesA country needs foreign exchange reserves to meet its commitments pay for its imports and service foreign debts

Foreign Exchange RiskThis is a real risk and one must be cognizant of the effect of a revaluation or devaluation of the currency either in the home country or in the country the company deals in

Restrictive PracticesRestrictive practices or cartels imposed by countries can affect companies and industries crystallizing the exposure

Foreign Debt and the Balance of Trade

19

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Foreign debt especially if it is very large can be a tremendous burden on an economy India pays around $ 5 billion a year in principal repayments and interest payments InflationInflation has an enormous effect in the economy Within the country it erodes purchasing power As a consequence demand falls If the rate of inflation in the country from which a company imports is high then the cost of production in that country will automatically go up

The Threat of NationalizationThe threat of nationalization is a real threat in many countries ndash the fear that a company may become nationalized

Interest RatesA low interest rate stimulates investment and industry Conversely high interest rates result in higher cost of production and lower consumption

TaxationThe level of taxation in a country has a direct effect on the economy If tax rates are low people have more disposable income

Government PolicyGovernment policy has a direct impact on the economy A government that is perceived to be proindustry will attract investment

THE ECONOMIC CYCLE

It affects investment decisions employment demand and the profitability of companiesThe four stages of an economic cycle are DepressionRecoveryBoom Recession DepressionAt the time of depression demand is low and falling Inflation is high and so are interest rates Companies crippled by high borrowing and falling sales are forced to curtail production close down plants built at times of higher demand and let workers go

RecoveryDuring this phase the economy begins to recover Investment begins anew and the demand grows Companies begin to post profits Conspicuous spending begins once again

Boom

20

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

In the boom phase demand reaches an all time high Investment is also high Interest rates are low Gradually as time goes on supply begins to exceed the demand Prices that had been rising begin to stabilize and even fall There is an increase in demand Then as the boom period matures prices begin to rise again

RecessionThe economy slowly begins to downturn Demand starts falling Interest rates and inflation are high Companies start finding it difficult to sell their goods The economy slowly begins to downturn

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

The importance of industry analysis is now dawning on the Indian investor as never before

CycleThe first step in industry is to determine the cycle it is in or the stage of maturity of the industry All industries evolve through the following stages1 Entrepreneurial sunrise or nascent stage2 Expansion or growth stage3 Stabilization stagnation or maturity stage and4 Decline or sunset stage to properly establish itself In the early days it may actually make losses

The Entrepreneurial or Nascent Stage

21

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

At the first stage the industry is new and it can take some time for it to properly establish itself

The Expansion or Growth StageOnce the industry has established itself it enters a growth stage As the industry grows many new companies enter the industry

The Stabilization or Maturity StageAfter the halcyon days of growth an industry matures and stabilizes Rewards are low and so too is the risk Growth is moderate Though sales may increase they do so at a slower rate than before Products are more standardized and less innovative and there are several competitors

The Decline or Sunset StageFinally the industry declines This occurs when its products are no longer popular This may be on account of several factors such as a change in social habits The film and video industries

1 BARRIER TO ENTRYNew entrants increase the capacity in an industry and the inflow of funds The question that arises is how easy is it to enter an industry There are some barriers to entry

a) Economies of scaleb) Product differentiation c) Capital requirementd) Switching costse) Access to distribution channelsf) Cost disadvantages independent of scaleg) Government policyh) Expected retaliationj) International cartels

2 THE THREAT OF SUBSTITUTIONNew inventions are always taking place and new and better products replace existing ones An industry that can be replaced by substitutes or is threatened by substitutes is normally an industry one must be careful of investing in An industry where this occurs constantly is the packaging industry -bottles replaced by cans cans replaced by plastic bottles and the like To ward off the threat of substitution companies often have to spend large sums of money in advertising and promotion

3 BARGAINING POWER OF THE BUYERSIn an industry where buyers have control ie in a buyers market buyers are constantly forcing prices down demanding better services or higher quality and this often erodes profitability The factors one should check are whether

22

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

a) A particular buyer buys most of the products (large purchase volumes) If such buyers withdraw their patronage they can destroy an industry They can also force prices downb) Buyers can play one company against another to bring prices down

4 BARGAINING POWER FOR THE SUPPLIERSAn industry unduly controlled by its suppliers is also under threat This occurs whena) The suppliers have a monopoly or if there are few suppliersb) Suppliers control an essential c) Demand for the product exceeds d) The supplier supplies to various industriese) The switching costs are highf) The suppliers product does not have a substituteg) The suppliers product is an important input for the buyersh) The buyer is not important to the supplieri) The suppliers product is unique

5 RIVALRY AMONG COMPETITORSRivalry among competitors can cause an industry great harm This occurs mainly by price cuts heavy advertising additional high cost services or offers and the like This rivalry occurs mainly whena) There are many competitors and supply exceeds demand Companies resort to price cuts and advertise heavily in order to attract customers for their goodsb) The industry growth is slow and companies are competing with each other for a greater market sharec) The economy is in a recession and companies cut the price of their products and offer better service to stimulate demandd) There is lack of differentiation between the product of one company and that of another In such cases the buyer makes his choice on the basis of price or servicee) In some industries economies of scale will necessitate large additions to existing capacities in a company The increase in production could result in over capacity amp price cuttingf) Competitors may have very different strategies in selling their goods and in competing they may be continuously trying to stay ahead

III COMPANY ANALYSIS

At the final stage of fundamental analysis the investor analyzes the company This analysis has two thrustsHow has the company performed vis-agrave-vis other similar companies and How has the company performed in comparison to earlier years It is imperative that one completes the politico economic analysis and the industry analysis before a company is analyzed because the companys performance at a period of time is to an extent a reflection of the economy the political situation and the industry What does one look at when analyzing a company The different issues regarding a company that should be examined are The Management

THE MANAGEMENT

The single most important factor one should consider when investing in a company and one often never considered is its management In India management can be broadlydivided in two types Family Management Professional Management

THE COMPANY

An aspect not necessarily examined during an analysis of fundamentals is the company A company may have made losses consecutively for two years or more and one may not wish to touch its shares - yet it may be a good company and worth purchasing into There are several factors one should look at

1 How a company is perceived by its competitorsOne of the key factors to ascertain is how a company is perceived by its competitors It is held in high regard Its management may be known for its maturity vision competence and aggressiveness The investor must ascertain the reason and then determine whetherthe reason will continue into the foreseeable future

2 Whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segmentAnother aspect that should be ascertained is whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segment When you invest in market leaders the risk is less Theshares of market leaders do not fall as quickly as those of other companies There is a magic to their name that would make individuals prefer to buy their products as opposed to others

3 Company PoliciesThe policy a company follows is also important What is its plans for growth What is its vision Every company has a life If it is allowed to live a normal life it will grow upto a point and then begin to level out and eventually die It is at the point of leveling out that it must be given new life This can give it renewed vigour and a new lease of life

4 Labour RelationsLabour relations are extremely important A company that has motivated industrious work force has high productivity and practically no disruption of work On the other hand a company that has bad industrial relations will lose several hundred mandays as a consequence of strikes and go slows

24

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

5 Where the company is located and where its factories are One must also consider where the companies Plants and Factories are located

THE ANNUAL REPORT

The primary and most important source of information about a company is its Annual Report By law this is prepared every year and distributed to the shareholders Annual Reports are usually very well presented A tremendous amount of data is given about the performance of a company over a period of time The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific partsA) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the Accounts

A The Directorrsquos ReportThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship 1 It enunciates the opinion of the directors on the state of the economy and the political situation vis-agrave-vis the company 2 Explains the performance and the financial results of the company in the period under review This is an extremely important part The results and operations of the various separate divisions are usually detailed and investors can determine the reasons for their good or bad performance3 The Directorrsquos Report details the companys plans for modernization expansion and diversification Without these a company will remain static and eventually decline4 Discusses the profit earned in the period under review and the dividend Recommended by the directors This paragraph should normally be read with some skepticism as the directors will always argue that the performance was satisfactory If adverse economic conditions are usually at fault 5 Elaborates on the directors views of the companys prospects in the future6 Discusses plans for new acquisition and investments An investor must intelligently evaluate the issues raised in a Directorrsquos Report Industry conditions and the managements knowledge of the business must be considered

B The Auditors ReportThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors Auditors are required to report whether the financial statements presented do in fact present a true and fair view of the state of the company Investors must remember that the auditors are their representatives and that they are required by law to point out if the financial statements are not true and fair

CFinancial Statements

25

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The published financial statements of a company in an Annual Report consist of its Balance Sheet as at the end of the accounting period detailing the financing condition of the company at that date and the Profit and Loss Account or Income Statement summarizing the activities of the company for the accounting period

BALANCE SHEETThe Balance Sheet details the financial position of a company on a particular date of the companys assets (that which the company owns) and liabilities (that which the companyowes) grouped logically under specific heads It must however be noted that the Balance Sheet details the financial position on a particular day and that the position can be materially different on the next day or the day after

PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNTThe Profit and Loss account summarizes the activities of a company during an accounting period which may be a month a quarter six months a year or longer and the result achieved by the company It details the income earned by the company its cost and the resulting profit or loss It is in effect the performance appraisal not only of the company but also of its management- its competence foresight and ability to lead

RATIOS

Ratios express mathematically the relationship between performance figures andor assetsliabilities in a form that can be easily understood and interpretedNo single ratio tells the complete storyRatios can be broken down into four broad categories

26

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(A) Profit and Loss RatiosThese show the relationship between two items or groups of items in a profit and loss account or income statement The more common of these ratios are1 Sales to cost of goods sold2 Selling expenses to sales3 Net profit to sales and4 Gross profit to sales

(B) Balance Sheet RatiosThese deal with the relationship in the balance sheet such as 1 Shareholders equity to borrowed funds2 Current assets to current liabilities3 Liabilities to net worth4 Debt to assets and5 Liabilities to assets

(C) Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Account RatiosThese relate an item on the balance sheet to another in the profit and loss account such as1 Earnings to shareholders funds2 Net income to assets employed3 Sales to stock4 Sales to debtors and5 Cost of goods sold to creditors

(D) Financial Statements and Market RatiosThese are normally known as market ratios and are arrived at by relative financial figures to market prices1 Market value to earnings and2 Book value to market value(a) Market value(b) Earnings(c) Profitability(d) Liquidity(e) Leverage(f) Debt Service Capacity(g) Asset ManagementEfficiency(h) Margins

(vii) Dividend payout ratio(viii) Leverage ratios(ix) Return on investmentstotal assets

CASH FLOW A statement of sources and uses begins with the profit for the year to which are added the increases in liability accounts (sources) and from which are reduced the increases in asset accounts (uses) The net result shows whether there has been an excess or deficit of funds and how this was financed Investors must examine a companys cash flow as it reveals exactly where the money came from how it was utilized Investors must be concerned if a company is financing either its inventories or paying dividends from borrowings without real growth as that shows deterioration

CHAPTER-4 ANALYSIS

29

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

I FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF STOCKS

Basically fundamental analysis is covered in 3 parts

1 Market economy analysis

2 Industry Analysis

3 Company Analysis

1) TATA MOTORS

I Market Economy Analysis

It covers the macro economy analysis and the various macro economic factors on the national level like GDP Monetary policies of India Fiscal Policies and Inflation and money supply etc

GDP

Real GDP growth accelerated from 75 per cent during 2004-05 to 84 per cent during

2005-06 on the back of buoyant manufacturing and services activity supported by a

recovery in the agricultural sector Real GDP growth has thus averaged over eight per

cent during the last three years and over seven per cent in the first four years (2002-03 to

2005-06) of the Tenth Five Year Plan

Strengths of India today are

30

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A well diversified industrial base which profits from self-reliance in all core industries A

large amp sophisticated financial architecture - The robust capital Markets today have over

9000 listed companies and boast of a massive Market capitalization

A healthy GDP composition with agriculture contributing 22 Industry 22 and

services which have gone strength to strength accounting For 56 of the GDP an

acknowledged strength in knowledge driven industries like Information technology

biotechnology entertainment Software etc

India has Over 3 million scientific amp technical manpower Over 06 million SampT post

graduates Over 07 million graduate engineers Over 3500 doctorates in sciences every

year

Assuming trend growth in agriculture under normal monsoon conditions and barring

domestic or external shocks the Reserve Bank in its Annual Policy Statement for 2007-

08 (April 2007) placed real GDP growth for policy purposes in the range of 75-80 per

cent during 2007-08 Growth prospects are however subject to a number of downside

risks The risks emanating from the global economy are potential escalation and

volatility in international crude oil prices firming up of overall inflationary pressures and

expectations and a hardening of international interest rates along with the withdrawal of

monetary accommodation

Indiarsquos demographic advantage ndash In contrast to developed Countries India will have a

younger population for the next 50 years Hence India would be the hub for RampD

Inflation

Inflation was contained to 63 per cent by end-March 2007 within the indicative

trajectory of 50-55 per cent during 2007-08 The actual inflation was considerably lower

than the indicative trajectory and this could be mainly attributed to the deferred pass-

through of even the cognisable permanent component of international crude oil prices

Money Supply

31

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Monetary and liquidity conditions remained largely comfortable during 2006-07reflecting

proactive liquidity management operations by the Reserve Bank under the liquidity

adjustment facility flexible management of issuances under the market stabilisation

scheme and some private placement of Government securities

In short the Indian economy is exhibiting strong fundamentals and displaying

considerable resilience At the same time there are continuing signs of demand pressures

especially high credit growth that could exert upward pressure on prices when associated

with supply shocks such as from oil These pressures have the potential for impacting

stability and inflation expectations While domestic developments continue to dominate

the economy global factors tend to gain more attention now than before The global

outlook for growth is positive but downside risks in regard to inflation also RBI is

applying new repo and reverse repo for the balance of inflation and monetary policies

The following are macroeconomic policies generally found as part of government-

directed industrial auto policies

(a) Restrictions on domestic and foreign investment

(b) Domestic content requirements

(c) High tariff walls

(d) Auto export requirements

(e) National production to sales ratios

(f) Distribution controls

(g) Quotas and licensing requirements that significantly restrict imports

(h) Government approval for product related decisions including vehicle make

body type engine size etc

(i) Special government categories for auto taxes

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry Today it is

amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output multiplier of

224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy) In recent

32

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

years we have seen increasing number of global players entering Indian market by way of

Joint ventures collaborations or wholly owned subsidiary

The automobile industry is torn between trying to reduce costs on the one hand and on

the other dealing with the high price of performance-enhancing technology and

environmental compliance Key drivers in the automotive industry are

Reducing air pollution

Reduction of weight

Recyclability

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

The automobile market is at the maturity stage of the life cycle locally and globally due

to an increased number of competitors from domestic and foreign markets The

automobile market is characterized by a low potential for market growth but high sales

and profit potential as the products have still not saturated the market as a whole

Opportunities and Threats

a) Opportunities

Road Development The ongoing road development program would improve

connectivity to ports cities and villages through a network of highways and

interconnecting roads by 2010-11 Improved road network would help in faster

34

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

movement of goods between various cities and towns The Company launched TATA

Novus range of vehicles in the heavy segment and TATA ACE for last mile distribution

Car penetration in India Car penetration in India is 7 cars per 1000 persons

International In FY 2006-07 the Company increased share of its overseas vehicle sales

from 76 last year to record high of 111 (as of its total sales) and has planned

further increase in this year

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

PORTERrsquoS MODEL

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

COMPANY ANALYSIS

The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific parts

A) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the AccountsATHE DIRECTORrsquoS REPORTThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship Fundamental AnalysisB THE AUDITORS REPORTThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors

DSCHEDULESThe schedules detail pertinent information about the items of Balance Sheet and Profit amp Loss Account It also details information about sales manufacturing costs administration costs interest and other income and expenses

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

GLOSSARY

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

78

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

ADVANCEDECLINE LINE The ldquoadvancedecline linerdquo shows for some period the cumulative difference between advancing and declining issues

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 sharesHI-LO-CLOSE CHART A hi-lo-close chart is a bar chart showing for each day the

high price low price and closing price

CANDESTICK CHART A candlestick chart is an extended version of the hi-lo-close chart It plots the high low open and closing prices and also shows whether the closing price was above or below the opening price

POINT AND FIGURE CHARTS Point-and-figure charts are a way of showing only major price moves and their direction A ldquomajorrdquo up move is marked with an ldquoXrdquo while a ldquomajorrdquo down move is marked with an ldquoOrdquo A new column starts every time there is a change in direction

HEAD AND SHOULDERS FORMATION Once a chart is drawn technical analysts examine it for various formations or pattern types in an attempt to predict stock price or market direction in the case of head-and-shoulders formation

ODD-LOT The ldquoodd-lotrdquo indicator looks at whether odd-lot purchases are up or down

HEMLINE Followers of the ldquohemlinerdquo indicator claim that hemlines tend to rise in good times

SUPER BOWL The Super Bowl indicator forecasts the direction of the market based on whether the National Football Conference or the American Football Conference wins

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Nothing is more certain than that the market has three well defined movements which fit into each other

The first is the daily variation due to local causes and the balance of buying and

selling at that particular time

The secondary movement covers a period ranging from ten days to sixty days

averaging probably between thirty and forty days

The third move is the great swing covering from four to six years

Bull markets are broad upward movements of the market that may last several

years interrupted by secondary reactions Bear markets are long declines

interrupted by secondary rallies These movements are referred to as the primary

trend

Secondary movements normally retrace from one third to two thirds of the

primary trend since the previous secondary movement

Daily fluctuations are important for short-term trading but are unimportant in

analysis of broad market movements

Various cycles have subsequently been identified within these broad categories

Primary Movements have Three Phases

The general conditions in the market

Bull markets

Bull markets commence with reviving confidence as business conditions improve

Prices rise as the market responds to improved earnings

12

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Rampant speculation dominates the market and price advances are based on hopes and

expectations rather than actual results

Bear markets

Bear markets start with abandonment of the hopes and expectations that sustained

inflated prices

Prices decline in response to disappointing earnings

Distress selling follows as speculators attempt to close out their positions and

securities are sold without regard to their true value

Ranging Markets

A secondary reaction may take the form of a lsquolinersquo which may endure for several weeks Price fluctuates within a narrow range of about five per cent

Breakouts from a range can occur in either direction

Advances above the upper limit of the line signal accumulation and higher prices

Declines below the lower limit indicate distribution and lower prices

Volume is used to confirm price breakouts

Trends

Bull Trends

A bull trend is identified by a series of rallies where each rally exceeds the highest point of the previous rally The decline between rallies ends above the lowest point of the previous decline

Successive higher highs and higher lows

13

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

Start = higher Low + break above previous High

The end is signaled by a lower high (peak) followed by a decline below the previous low (trough)

End = lower High + break below previous Low

A bear trend starts at the end of a bull trend when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

Large Corrections

A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

14

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A bull trend starts when price rallies above the previous high

A bull trend ends when price declines below the previous low

A bear trend starts at the end of a bull trend (and vice versa)

32 ELLIOT WAVES THEORY BASICS

TRENDLINES

Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations (which causes supplydemand lines to shift)

15

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

An Uptrend is defined by successively higher low-prices A rising trend can be thought of as a rising support level the bulls are in control and are pushing prices higher A Downtrend is defined by successively lower high-prices A falling trend can be thought of as a falling resistance level the bears are in control and are pushing prices lower

33 MOVING AVERAGES

Moving averages are one of the oldest and most popular technical analysis tools A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument over a given time

The moving average represents the consensus of investorrsquos expectations over the indicated period of time

The classic interpretation of a moving average is to use it in observing changes in prices Investors typically buy when the price of an instrument rises above its moving average and sell when the it falls below its moving average

TECHNICAL INDICATORS

There is a vast number of elaborated technical indicators

16

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

MOVING AVERAGE ndashMA RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX mdash RSI The Relative Strength Index

Technical Indicator (RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100 When Wilder introduced the Relative Strength Index he recommended using a 14-day RSI Since then the 9-day and 25-day Relative Strength Index indicators have also gained popularity

ADVANCEDECLINE LINE The ldquoadvancedecline linerdquo shows for some period the cumulative difference between advancing and declining issues

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 shares

HI-LO-CLOSE CHART A hi-lo-close chart is a bar chart showing for each day the high price low price and closing price

CANDLESTICK CHART A candlestick chart is an extended version of the hi-lo-close chart It plots the high low open and closing prices and also shows whether the closing price was above or below the opening price

POINT AND FIGURE CHARTS Point-and-figure charts are a way of showing only major price moves and their direction A ldquomajorrdquo up move is marked with an ldquoXrdquo while a ldquomajorrdquo down move is marked with an ldquoOrdquo A new column starts every time there is a change in direction

HEAD AND SHOULDERS FORMATION Once a chart is drawn analysts examine it for various formations or pattern types in an attempt to predict stock price or market direction in the case of head-and-shoulders formation When the stock price ldquopierces the necklinerdquo after the right shoulder is finished itrsquos time to sell

ODD-LOT The ldquoodd-lotrdquo indicator looks at whether odd-lot purchases are up or down HEMLINE Followers of the ldquohemlinerdquo indicator claim that hemlines tend to rise in good times

SUPER BOWL The Super Bowl indicator forecasts the direction of the market based on whether the National Football Conference or the American Football Conference wins A win by the National Football Conference is bullish

BETA Beta is a risk measure comparing the volatility of a stocks price movement to the general market

17

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

MOMENTUM Momentum measures the speed of price change and provides a leading indicator of changes in trend

UPSIDEDOWNSIDE Measures of UpsideDownside separate the volumes for rising markets from those in falling markets Since volume is independent of price it makes a valuable tool for measuring the quality of a price trend

CHAPTER- 3

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS

A CONCEPTUAL OVERVIEW

18

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Fundamental analysis refers to the study of the core underlying elements that influence the economy of a particular entity It is a method of study that attempts to predict price action and market trends by analyzing economic indicators government policy and societal factors (to name just a few elements) within a business cycle framework

I ECONOMIC ANALYSIS

POLITICO-ECONOMIC ANALYSIS No industry or company can exist in isolation It may have splendid managers and a tremendous product However its sales and its costs are affected by factors some of which are beyond its control - the world economy price inflation taxes and a host of others It is important therefore to have an appreciation of the politico-economic factors that affect an industry and a company

The political equationA stable political environment is necessary for steady balanced growth If a country is ruled by a stable government which takes decisions for the long-term development of the country industry and companies will prosper Foreign Exchange ReservesA country needs foreign exchange reserves to meet its commitments pay for its imports and service foreign debts

Foreign Exchange RiskThis is a real risk and one must be cognizant of the effect of a revaluation or devaluation of the currency either in the home country or in the country the company deals in

Restrictive PracticesRestrictive practices or cartels imposed by countries can affect companies and industries crystallizing the exposure

Foreign Debt and the Balance of Trade

19

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Foreign debt especially if it is very large can be a tremendous burden on an economy India pays around $ 5 billion a year in principal repayments and interest payments InflationInflation has an enormous effect in the economy Within the country it erodes purchasing power As a consequence demand falls If the rate of inflation in the country from which a company imports is high then the cost of production in that country will automatically go up

The Threat of NationalizationThe threat of nationalization is a real threat in many countries ndash the fear that a company may become nationalized

Interest RatesA low interest rate stimulates investment and industry Conversely high interest rates result in higher cost of production and lower consumption

TaxationThe level of taxation in a country has a direct effect on the economy If tax rates are low people have more disposable income

Government PolicyGovernment policy has a direct impact on the economy A government that is perceived to be proindustry will attract investment

THE ECONOMIC CYCLE

It affects investment decisions employment demand and the profitability of companiesThe four stages of an economic cycle are DepressionRecoveryBoom Recession DepressionAt the time of depression demand is low and falling Inflation is high and so are interest rates Companies crippled by high borrowing and falling sales are forced to curtail production close down plants built at times of higher demand and let workers go

RecoveryDuring this phase the economy begins to recover Investment begins anew and the demand grows Companies begin to post profits Conspicuous spending begins once again

Boom

20

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

In the boom phase demand reaches an all time high Investment is also high Interest rates are low Gradually as time goes on supply begins to exceed the demand Prices that had been rising begin to stabilize and even fall There is an increase in demand Then as the boom period matures prices begin to rise again

RecessionThe economy slowly begins to downturn Demand starts falling Interest rates and inflation are high Companies start finding it difficult to sell their goods The economy slowly begins to downturn

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

The importance of industry analysis is now dawning on the Indian investor as never before

CycleThe first step in industry is to determine the cycle it is in or the stage of maturity of the industry All industries evolve through the following stages1 Entrepreneurial sunrise or nascent stage2 Expansion or growth stage3 Stabilization stagnation or maturity stage and4 Decline or sunset stage to properly establish itself In the early days it may actually make losses

The Entrepreneurial or Nascent Stage

21

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

At the first stage the industry is new and it can take some time for it to properly establish itself

The Expansion or Growth StageOnce the industry has established itself it enters a growth stage As the industry grows many new companies enter the industry

The Stabilization or Maturity StageAfter the halcyon days of growth an industry matures and stabilizes Rewards are low and so too is the risk Growth is moderate Though sales may increase they do so at a slower rate than before Products are more standardized and less innovative and there are several competitors

The Decline or Sunset StageFinally the industry declines This occurs when its products are no longer popular This may be on account of several factors such as a change in social habits The film and video industries

1 BARRIER TO ENTRYNew entrants increase the capacity in an industry and the inflow of funds The question that arises is how easy is it to enter an industry There are some barriers to entry

a) Economies of scaleb) Product differentiation c) Capital requirementd) Switching costse) Access to distribution channelsf) Cost disadvantages independent of scaleg) Government policyh) Expected retaliationj) International cartels

2 THE THREAT OF SUBSTITUTIONNew inventions are always taking place and new and better products replace existing ones An industry that can be replaced by substitutes or is threatened by substitutes is normally an industry one must be careful of investing in An industry where this occurs constantly is the packaging industry -bottles replaced by cans cans replaced by plastic bottles and the like To ward off the threat of substitution companies often have to spend large sums of money in advertising and promotion

3 BARGAINING POWER OF THE BUYERSIn an industry where buyers have control ie in a buyers market buyers are constantly forcing prices down demanding better services or higher quality and this often erodes profitability The factors one should check are whether

22

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

a) A particular buyer buys most of the products (large purchase volumes) If such buyers withdraw their patronage they can destroy an industry They can also force prices downb) Buyers can play one company against another to bring prices down

4 BARGAINING POWER FOR THE SUPPLIERSAn industry unduly controlled by its suppliers is also under threat This occurs whena) The suppliers have a monopoly or if there are few suppliersb) Suppliers control an essential c) Demand for the product exceeds d) The supplier supplies to various industriese) The switching costs are highf) The suppliers product does not have a substituteg) The suppliers product is an important input for the buyersh) The buyer is not important to the supplieri) The suppliers product is unique

5 RIVALRY AMONG COMPETITORSRivalry among competitors can cause an industry great harm This occurs mainly by price cuts heavy advertising additional high cost services or offers and the like This rivalry occurs mainly whena) There are many competitors and supply exceeds demand Companies resort to price cuts and advertise heavily in order to attract customers for their goodsb) The industry growth is slow and companies are competing with each other for a greater market sharec) The economy is in a recession and companies cut the price of their products and offer better service to stimulate demandd) There is lack of differentiation between the product of one company and that of another In such cases the buyer makes his choice on the basis of price or servicee) In some industries economies of scale will necessitate large additions to existing capacities in a company The increase in production could result in over capacity amp price cuttingf) Competitors may have very different strategies in selling their goods and in competing they may be continuously trying to stay ahead

III COMPANY ANALYSIS

At the final stage of fundamental analysis the investor analyzes the company This analysis has two thrustsHow has the company performed vis-agrave-vis other similar companies and How has the company performed in comparison to earlier years It is imperative that one completes the politico economic analysis and the industry analysis before a company is analyzed because the companys performance at a period of time is to an extent a reflection of the economy the political situation and the industry What does one look at when analyzing a company The different issues regarding a company that should be examined are The Management

23

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The Company The Annual Report Ratios Cash flow

THE MANAGEMENT

The single most important factor one should consider when investing in a company and one often never considered is its management In India management can be broadlydivided in two types Family Management Professional Management

THE COMPANY

An aspect not necessarily examined during an analysis of fundamentals is the company A company may have made losses consecutively for two years or more and one may not wish to touch its shares - yet it may be a good company and worth purchasing into There are several factors one should look at

1 How a company is perceived by its competitorsOne of the key factors to ascertain is how a company is perceived by its competitors It is held in high regard Its management may be known for its maturity vision competence and aggressiveness The investor must ascertain the reason and then determine whetherthe reason will continue into the foreseeable future

2 Whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segmentAnother aspect that should be ascertained is whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segment When you invest in market leaders the risk is less Theshares of market leaders do not fall as quickly as those of other companies There is a magic to their name that would make individuals prefer to buy their products as opposed to others

3 Company PoliciesThe policy a company follows is also important What is its plans for growth What is its vision Every company has a life If it is allowed to live a normal life it will grow upto a point and then begin to level out and eventually die It is at the point of leveling out that it must be given new life This can give it renewed vigour and a new lease of life

4 Labour RelationsLabour relations are extremely important A company that has motivated industrious work force has high productivity and practically no disruption of work On the other hand a company that has bad industrial relations will lose several hundred mandays as a consequence of strikes and go slows

24

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

5 Where the company is located and where its factories are One must also consider where the companies Plants and Factories are located

THE ANNUAL REPORT

The primary and most important source of information about a company is its Annual Report By law this is prepared every year and distributed to the shareholders Annual Reports are usually very well presented A tremendous amount of data is given about the performance of a company over a period of time The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific partsA) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the Accounts

A The Directorrsquos ReportThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship 1 It enunciates the opinion of the directors on the state of the economy and the political situation vis-agrave-vis the company 2 Explains the performance and the financial results of the company in the period under review This is an extremely important part The results and operations of the various separate divisions are usually detailed and investors can determine the reasons for their good or bad performance3 The Directorrsquos Report details the companys plans for modernization expansion and diversification Without these a company will remain static and eventually decline4 Discusses the profit earned in the period under review and the dividend Recommended by the directors This paragraph should normally be read with some skepticism as the directors will always argue that the performance was satisfactory If adverse economic conditions are usually at fault 5 Elaborates on the directors views of the companys prospects in the future6 Discusses plans for new acquisition and investments An investor must intelligently evaluate the issues raised in a Directorrsquos Report Industry conditions and the managements knowledge of the business must be considered

B The Auditors ReportThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors Auditors are required to report whether the financial statements presented do in fact present a true and fair view of the state of the company Investors must remember that the auditors are their representatives and that they are required by law to point out if the financial statements are not true and fair

CFinancial Statements

25

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The published financial statements of a company in an Annual Report consist of its Balance Sheet as at the end of the accounting period detailing the financing condition of the company at that date and the Profit and Loss Account or Income Statement summarizing the activities of the company for the accounting period

BALANCE SHEETThe Balance Sheet details the financial position of a company on a particular date of the companys assets (that which the company owns) and liabilities (that which the companyowes) grouped logically under specific heads It must however be noted that the Balance Sheet details the financial position on a particular day and that the position can be materially different on the next day or the day after

PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNTThe Profit and Loss account summarizes the activities of a company during an accounting period which may be a month a quarter six months a year or longer and the result achieved by the company It details the income earned by the company its cost and the resulting profit or loss It is in effect the performance appraisal not only of the company but also of its management- its competence foresight and ability to lead

RATIOS

Ratios express mathematically the relationship between performance figures andor assetsliabilities in a form that can be easily understood and interpretedNo single ratio tells the complete storyRatios can be broken down into four broad categories

26

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(A) Profit and Loss RatiosThese show the relationship between two items or groups of items in a profit and loss account or income statement The more common of these ratios are1 Sales to cost of goods sold2 Selling expenses to sales3 Net profit to sales and4 Gross profit to sales

(B) Balance Sheet RatiosThese deal with the relationship in the balance sheet such as 1 Shareholders equity to borrowed funds2 Current assets to current liabilities3 Liabilities to net worth4 Debt to assets and5 Liabilities to assets

(C) Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Account RatiosThese relate an item on the balance sheet to another in the profit and loss account such as1 Earnings to shareholders funds2 Net income to assets employed3 Sales to stock4 Sales to debtors and5 Cost of goods sold to creditors

(D) Financial Statements and Market RatiosThese are normally known as market ratios and are arrived at by relative financial figures to market prices1 Market value to earnings and2 Book value to market value(a) Market value(b) Earnings(c) Profitability(d) Liquidity(e) Leverage(f) Debt Service Capacity(g) Asset ManagementEfficiency(h) Margins

The major ratios that are considered(i) Market value(ii) Price- earnings ratio(iii) Market-to-book ratio(iv) Earnings(v) Earning per share(vi) Dividend per share

27

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(vii) Dividend payout ratio(viii) Leverage ratios(ix) Return on investmentstotal assets

CASH FLOW A statement of sources and uses begins with the profit for the year to which are added the increases in liability accounts (sources) and from which are reduced the increases in asset accounts (uses) The net result shows whether there has been an excess or deficit of funds and how this was financed Investors must examine a companys cash flow as it reveals exactly where the money came from how it was utilized Investors must be concerned if a company is financing either its inventories or paying dividends from borrowings without real growth as that shows deterioration

CHAPTER-4 ANALYSIS

29

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

I FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF STOCKS

Basically fundamental analysis is covered in 3 parts

1 Market economy analysis

2 Industry Analysis

3 Company Analysis

1) TATA MOTORS

I Market Economy Analysis

It covers the macro economy analysis and the various macro economic factors on the national level like GDP Monetary policies of India Fiscal Policies and Inflation and money supply etc

GDP

Real GDP growth accelerated from 75 per cent during 2004-05 to 84 per cent during

2005-06 on the back of buoyant manufacturing and services activity supported by a

recovery in the agricultural sector Real GDP growth has thus averaged over eight per

cent during the last three years and over seven per cent in the first four years (2002-03 to

2005-06) of the Tenth Five Year Plan

Strengths of India today are

30

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A well diversified industrial base which profits from self-reliance in all core industries A

large amp sophisticated financial architecture - The robust capital Markets today have over

9000 listed companies and boast of a massive Market capitalization

A healthy GDP composition with agriculture contributing 22 Industry 22 and

services which have gone strength to strength accounting For 56 of the GDP an

acknowledged strength in knowledge driven industries like Information technology

biotechnology entertainment Software etc

India has Over 3 million scientific amp technical manpower Over 06 million SampT post

graduates Over 07 million graduate engineers Over 3500 doctorates in sciences every

year

Assuming trend growth in agriculture under normal monsoon conditions and barring

domestic or external shocks the Reserve Bank in its Annual Policy Statement for 2007-

08 (April 2007) placed real GDP growth for policy purposes in the range of 75-80 per

cent during 2007-08 Growth prospects are however subject to a number of downside

risks The risks emanating from the global economy are potential escalation and

volatility in international crude oil prices firming up of overall inflationary pressures and

expectations and a hardening of international interest rates along with the withdrawal of

monetary accommodation

Indiarsquos demographic advantage ndash In contrast to developed Countries India will have a

younger population for the next 50 years Hence India would be the hub for RampD

Inflation

Inflation was contained to 63 per cent by end-March 2007 within the indicative

trajectory of 50-55 per cent during 2007-08 The actual inflation was considerably lower

than the indicative trajectory and this could be mainly attributed to the deferred pass-

through of even the cognisable permanent component of international crude oil prices

Money Supply

31

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Monetary and liquidity conditions remained largely comfortable during 2006-07reflecting

proactive liquidity management operations by the Reserve Bank under the liquidity

adjustment facility flexible management of issuances under the market stabilisation

scheme and some private placement of Government securities

In short the Indian economy is exhibiting strong fundamentals and displaying

considerable resilience At the same time there are continuing signs of demand pressures

especially high credit growth that could exert upward pressure on prices when associated

with supply shocks such as from oil These pressures have the potential for impacting

stability and inflation expectations While domestic developments continue to dominate

the economy global factors tend to gain more attention now than before The global

outlook for growth is positive but downside risks in regard to inflation also RBI is

applying new repo and reverse repo for the balance of inflation and monetary policies

The following are macroeconomic policies generally found as part of government-

directed industrial auto policies

(a) Restrictions on domestic and foreign investment

(b) Domestic content requirements

(c) High tariff walls

(d) Auto export requirements

(e) National production to sales ratios

(f) Distribution controls

(g) Quotas and licensing requirements that significantly restrict imports

(h) Government approval for product related decisions including vehicle make

body type engine size etc

(i) Special government categories for auto taxes

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry Today it is

amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output multiplier of

224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy) In recent

32

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

years we have seen increasing number of global players entering Indian market by way of

Joint ventures collaborations or wholly owned subsidiary

The automobile industry is torn between trying to reduce costs on the one hand and on

the other dealing with the high price of performance-enhancing technology and

environmental compliance Key drivers in the automotive industry are

Reducing air pollution

Reduction of weight

Recyclability

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

The automobile market is at the maturity stage of the life cycle locally and globally due

to an increased number of competitors from domestic and foreign markets The

automobile market is characterized by a low potential for market growth but high sales

and profit potential as the products have still not saturated the market as a whole

Opportunities and Threats

a) Opportunities

Road Development The ongoing road development program would improve

connectivity to ports cities and villages through a network of highways and

interconnecting roads by 2010-11 Improved road network would help in faster

34

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

movement of goods between various cities and towns The Company launched TATA

Novus range of vehicles in the heavy segment and TATA ACE for last mile distribution

Car penetration in India Car penetration in India is 7 cars per 1000 persons

International In FY 2006-07 the Company increased share of its overseas vehicle sales

from 76 last year to record high of 111 (as of its total sales) and has planned

further increase in this year

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

SWOT ANALYSIS

STRENGHS

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Rampant speculation dominates the market and price advances are based on hopes and

expectations rather than actual results

Bear markets

Bear markets start with abandonment of the hopes and expectations that sustained

inflated prices

Prices decline in response to disappointing earnings

Distress selling follows as speculators attempt to close out their positions and

securities are sold without regard to their true value

Ranging Markets

A secondary reaction may take the form of a lsquolinersquo which may endure for several weeks Price fluctuates within a narrow range of about five per cent

Breakouts from a range can occur in either direction

Advances above the upper limit of the line signal accumulation and higher prices

Declines below the lower limit indicate distribution and lower prices

Volume is used to confirm price breakouts

Trends

Bull Trends

A bull trend is identified by a series of rallies where each rally exceeds the highest point of the previous rally The decline between rallies ends above the lowest point of the previous decline

Successive higher highs and higher lows

13

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

Start = higher Low + break above previous High

The end is signaled by a lower high (peak) followed by a decline below the previous low (trough)

End = lower High + break below previous Low

A bear trend starts at the end of a bull trend when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

Large Corrections

A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

14

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A bull trend starts when price rallies above the previous high

A bull trend ends when price declines below the previous low

A bear trend starts at the end of a bull trend (and vice versa)

32 ELLIOT WAVES THEORY BASICS

TRENDLINES

Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations (which causes supplydemand lines to shift)

15

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

An Uptrend is defined by successively higher low-prices A rising trend can be thought of as a rising support level the bulls are in control and are pushing prices higher A Downtrend is defined by successively lower high-prices A falling trend can be thought of as a falling resistance level the bears are in control and are pushing prices lower

33 MOVING AVERAGES

Moving averages are one of the oldest and most popular technical analysis tools A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument over a given time

The moving average represents the consensus of investorrsquos expectations over the indicated period of time

The classic interpretation of a moving average is to use it in observing changes in prices Investors typically buy when the price of an instrument rises above its moving average and sell when the it falls below its moving average

TECHNICAL INDICATORS

There is a vast number of elaborated technical indicators

CHAPTER- 3

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS

A CONCEPTUAL OVERVIEW

18

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Fundamental analysis refers to the study of the core underlying elements that influence the economy of a particular entity It is a method of study that attempts to predict price action and market trends by analyzing economic indicators government policy and societal factors (to name just a few elements) within a business cycle framework

I ECONOMIC ANALYSIS

POLITICO-ECONOMIC ANALYSIS No industry or company can exist in isolation It may have splendid managers and a tremendous product However its sales and its costs are affected by factors some of which are beyond its control - the world economy price inflation taxes and a host of others It is important therefore to have an appreciation of the politico-economic factors that affect an industry and a company

The political equationA stable political environment is necessary for steady balanced growth If a country is ruled by a stable government which takes decisions for the long-term development of the country industry and companies will prosper Foreign Exchange ReservesA country needs foreign exchange reserves to meet its commitments pay for its imports and service foreign debts

Foreign Exchange RiskThis is a real risk and one must be cognizant of the effect of a revaluation or devaluation of the currency either in the home country or in the country the company deals in

Restrictive PracticesRestrictive practices or cartels imposed by countries can affect companies and industries crystallizing the exposure

Foreign Debt and the Balance of Trade

19

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Foreign debt especially if it is very large can be a tremendous burden on an economy India pays around $ 5 billion a year in principal repayments and interest payments InflationInflation has an enormous effect in the economy Within the country it erodes purchasing power As a consequence demand falls If the rate of inflation in the country from which a company imports is high then the cost of production in that country will automatically go up

The Threat of NationalizationThe threat of nationalization is a real threat in many countries ndash the fear that a company may become nationalized

Interest RatesA low interest rate stimulates investment and industry Conversely high interest rates result in higher cost of production and lower consumption

TaxationThe level of taxation in a country has a direct effect on the economy If tax rates are low people have more disposable income

Government PolicyGovernment policy has a direct impact on the economy A government that is perceived to be proindustry will attract investment

THE ECONOMIC CYCLE

It affects investment decisions employment demand and the profitability of companiesThe four stages of an economic cycle are DepressionRecoveryBoom Recession DepressionAt the time of depression demand is low and falling Inflation is high and so are interest rates Companies crippled by high borrowing and falling sales are forced to curtail production close down plants built at times of higher demand and let workers go

RecoveryDuring this phase the economy begins to recover Investment begins anew and the demand grows Companies begin to post profits Conspicuous spending begins once again

Boom

20

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

In the boom phase demand reaches an all time high Investment is also high Interest rates are low Gradually as time goes on supply begins to exceed the demand Prices that had been rising begin to stabilize and even fall There is an increase in demand Then as the boom period matures prices begin to rise again

RecessionThe economy slowly begins to downturn Demand starts falling Interest rates and inflation are high Companies start finding it difficult to sell their goods The economy slowly begins to downturn

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

The importance of industry analysis is now dawning on the Indian investor as never before

CycleThe first step in industry is to determine the cycle it is in or the stage of maturity of the industry All industries evolve through the following stages1 Entrepreneurial sunrise or nascent stage2 Expansion or growth stage3 Stabilization stagnation or maturity stage and4 Decline or sunset stage to properly establish itself In the early days it may actually make losses

The Entrepreneurial or Nascent Stage

21

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

At the first stage the industry is new and it can take some time for it to properly establish itself

The Expansion or Growth StageOnce the industry has established itself it enters a growth stage As the industry grows many new companies enter the industry

The Stabilization or Maturity StageAfter the halcyon days of growth an industry matures and stabilizes Rewards are low and so too is the risk Growth is moderate Though sales may increase they do so at a slower rate than before Products are more standardized and less innovative and there are several competitors

The Decline or Sunset StageFinally the industry declines This occurs when its products are no longer popular This may be on account of several factors such as a change in social habits The film and video industries

1 BARRIER TO ENTRYNew entrants increase the capacity in an industry and the inflow of funds The question that arises is how easy is it to enter an industry There are some barriers to entry

a) Economies of scaleb) Product differentiation c) Capital requirementd) Switching costse) Access to distribution channelsf) Cost disadvantages independent of scaleg) Government policyh) Expected retaliationj) International cartels

2 THE THREAT OF SUBSTITUTIONNew inventions are always taking place and new and better products replace existing ones An industry that can be replaced by substitutes or is threatened by substitutes is normally an industry one must be careful of investing in An industry where this occurs constantly is the packaging industry -bottles replaced by cans cans replaced by plastic bottles and the like To ward off the threat of substitution companies often have to spend large sums of money in advertising and promotion

3 BARGAINING POWER OF THE BUYERSIn an industry where buyers have control ie in a buyers market buyers are constantly forcing prices down demanding better services or higher quality and this often erodes profitability The factors one should check are whether

22

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

a) A particular buyer buys most of the products (large purchase volumes) If such buyers withdraw their patronage they can destroy an industry They can also force prices downb) Buyers can play one company against another to bring prices down

4 BARGAINING POWER FOR THE SUPPLIERSAn industry unduly controlled by its suppliers is also under threat This occurs whena) The suppliers have a monopoly or if there are few suppliersb) Suppliers control an essential c) Demand for the product exceeds d) The supplier supplies to various industriese) The switching costs are highf) The suppliers product does not have a substituteg) The suppliers product is an important input for the buyersh) The buyer is not important to the supplieri) The suppliers product is unique

5 RIVALRY AMONG COMPETITORSRivalry among competitors can cause an industry great harm This occurs mainly by price cuts heavy advertising additional high cost services or offers and the like This rivalry occurs mainly whena) There are many competitors and supply exceeds demand Companies resort to price cuts and advertise heavily in order to attract customers for their goodsb) The industry growth is slow and companies are competing with each other for a greater market sharec) The economy is in a recession and companies cut the price of their products and offer better service to stimulate demandd) There is lack of differentiation between the product of one company and that of another In such cases the buyer makes his choice on the basis of price or servicee) In some industries economies of scale will necessitate large additions to existing capacities in a company The increase in production could result in over capacity amp price cuttingf) Competitors may have very different strategies in selling their goods and in competing they may be continuously trying to stay ahead

III COMPANY ANALYSIS

At the final stage of fundamental analysis the investor analyzes the company This analysis has two thrustsHow has the company performed vis-agrave-vis other similar companies and How has the company performed in comparison to earlier years It is imperative that one completes the politico economic analysis and the industry analysis before a company is analyzed because the companys performance at a period of time is to an extent a reflection of the economy the political situation and the industry What does one look at when analyzing a company The different issues regarding a company that should be examined are The Management

23

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The Company The Annual Report Ratios Cash flow

THE MANAGEMENT

The single most important factor one should consider when investing in a company and one often never considered is its management In India management can be broadlydivided in two types Family Management Professional Management

THE COMPANY

An aspect not necessarily examined during an analysis of fundamentals is the company A company may have made losses consecutively for two years or more and one may not wish to touch its shares - yet it may be a good company and worth purchasing into There are several factors one should look at

1 How a company is perceived by its competitorsOne of the key factors to ascertain is how a company is perceived by its competitors It is held in high regard Its management may be known for its maturity vision competence and aggressiveness The investor must ascertain the reason and then determine whetherthe reason will continue into the foreseeable future

2 Whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segmentAnother aspect that should be ascertained is whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segment When you invest in market leaders the risk is less Theshares of market leaders do not fall as quickly as those of other companies There is a magic to their name that would make individuals prefer to buy their products as opposed to others

3 Company PoliciesThe policy a company follows is also important What is its plans for growth What is its vision Every company has a life If it is allowed to live a normal life it will grow upto a point and then begin to level out and eventually die It is at the point of leveling out that it must be given new life This can give it renewed vigour and a new lease of life

4 Labour RelationsLabour relations are extremely important A company that has motivated industrious work force has high productivity and practically no disruption of work On the other hand a company that has bad industrial relations will lose several hundred mandays as a consequence of strikes and go slows

24

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

5 Where the company is located and where its factories are One must also consider where the companies Plants and Factories are located

THE ANNUAL REPORT

The primary and most important source of information about a company is its Annual Report By law this is prepared every year and distributed to the shareholders Annual Reports are usually very well presented A tremendous amount of data is given about the performance of a company over a period of time The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific partsA) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the Accounts

A The Directorrsquos ReportThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship 1 It enunciates the opinion of the directors on the state of the economy and the political situation vis-agrave-vis the company 2 Explains the performance and the financial results of the company in the period under review This is an extremely important part The results and operations of the various separate divisions are usually detailed and investors can determine the reasons for their good or bad performance3 The Directorrsquos Report details the companys plans for modernization expansion and diversification Without these a company will remain static and eventually decline4 Discusses the profit earned in the period under review and the dividend Recommended by the directors This paragraph should normally be read with some skepticism as the directors will always argue that the performance was satisfactory If adverse economic conditions are usually at fault 5 Elaborates on the directors views of the companys prospects in the future6 Discusses plans for new acquisition and investments An investor must intelligently evaluate the issues raised in a Directorrsquos Report Industry conditions and the managements knowledge of the business must be considered

B The Auditors ReportThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors Auditors are required to report whether the financial statements presented do in fact present a true and fair view of the state of the company Investors must remember that the auditors are their representatives and that they are required by law to point out if the financial statements are not true and fair

CFinancial Statements

25

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The published financial statements of a company in an Annual Report consist of its Balance Sheet as at the end of the accounting period detailing the financing condition of the company at that date and the Profit and Loss Account or Income Statement summarizing the activities of the company for the accounting period

BALANCE SHEETThe Balance Sheet details the financial position of a company on a particular date of the companys assets (that which the company owns) and liabilities (that which the companyowes) grouped logically under specific heads It must however be noted that the Balance Sheet details the financial position on a particular day and that the position can be materially different on the next day or the day after

PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNTThe Profit and Loss account summarizes the activities of a company during an accounting period which may be a month a quarter six months a year or longer and the result achieved by the company It details the income earned by the company its cost and the resulting profit or loss It is in effect the performance appraisal not only of the company but also of its management- its competence foresight and ability to lead

RATIOS

Ratios express mathematically the relationship between performance figures andor assetsliabilities in a form that can be easily understood and interpretedNo single ratio tells the complete storyRatios can be broken down into four broad categories

26

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

I FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF STOCKS

Basically fundamental analysis is covered in 3 parts

1 Market economy analysis

2 Industry Analysis

3 Company Analysis

1) TATA MOTORS

I Market Economy Analysis

It covers the macro economy analysis and the various macro economic factors on the national level like GDP Monetary policies of India Fiscal Policies and Inflation and money supply etc

GDP

Real GDP growth accelerated from 75 per cent during 2004-05 to 84 per cent during

2005-06 on the back of buoyant manufacturing and services activity supported by a

recovery in the agricultural sector Real GDP growth has thus averaged over eight per

cent during the last three years and over seven per cent in the first four years (2002-03 to

2005-06) of the Tenth Five Year Plan

Strengths of India today are

30

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A well diversified industrial base which profits from self-reliance in all core industries A

large amp sophisticated financial architecture - The robust capital Markets today have over

9000 listed companies and boast of a massive Market capitalization

A healthy GDP composition with agriculture contributing 22 Industry 22 and

services which have gone strength to strength accounting For 56 of the GDP an

acknowledged strength in knowledge driven industries like Information technology

biotechnology entertainment Software etc

India has Over 3 million scientific amp technical manpower Over 06 million SampT post

graduates Over 07 million graduate engineers Over 3500 doctorates in sciences every

year

Assuming trend growth in agriculture under normal monsoon conditions and barring

domestic or external shocks the Reserve Bank in its Annual Policy Statement for 2007-

08 (April 2007) placed real GDP growth for policy purposes in the range of 75-80 per

cent during 2007-08 Growth prospects are however subject to a number of downside

risks The risks emanating from the global economy are potential escalation and

volatility in international crude oil prices firming up of overall inflationary pressures and

expectations and a hardening of international interest rates along with the withdrawal of

monetary accommodation

Indiarsquos demographic advantage ndash In contrast to developed Countries India will have a

younger population for the next 50 years Hence India would be the hub for RampD

Inflation

Inflation was contained to 63 per cent by end-March 2007 within the indicative

trajectory of 50-55 per cent during 2007-08 The actual inflation was considerably lower

than the indicative trajectory and this could be mainly attributed to the deferred pass-

through of even the cognisable permanent component of international crude oil prices

Money Supply

31

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Monetary and liquidity conditions remained largely comfortable during 2006-07reflecting

proactive liquidity management operations by the Reserve Bank under the liquidity

adjustment facility flexible management of issuances under the market stabilisation

scheme and some private placement of Government securities

In short the Indian economy is exhibiting strong fundamentals and displaying

considerable resilience At the same time there are continuing signs of demand pressures

especially high credit growth that could exert upward pressure on prices when associated

with supply shocks such as from oil These pressures have the potential for impacting

stability and inflation expectations While domestic developments continue to dominate

the economy global factors tend to gain more attention now than before The global

outlook for growth is positive but downside risks in regard to inflation also RBI is

applying new repo and reverse repo for the balance of inflation and monetary policies

The following are macroeconomic policies generally found as part of government-

directed industrial auto policies

(a) Restrictions on domestic and foreign investment

(b) Domestic content requirements

(c) High tariff walls

(d) Auto export requirements

(e) National production to sales ratios

(f) Distribution controls

(g) Quotas and licensing requirements that significantly restrict imports

(h) Government approval for product related decisions including vehicle make

body type engine size etc

(i) Special government categories for auto taxes

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry Today it is

amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output multiplier of

224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy) In recent

32

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

years we have seen increasing number of global players entering Indian market by way of

Joint ventures collaborations or wholly owned subsidiary

The automobile industry is torn between trying to reduce costs on the one hand and on

the other dealing with the high price of performance-enhancing technology and

environmental compliance Key drivers in the automotive industry are

Reducing air pollution

Reduction of weight

Recyclability

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

The automobile market is at the maturity stage of the life cycle locally and globally due

to an increased number of competitors from domestic and foreign markets The

automobile market is characterized by a low potential for market growth but high sales

and profit potential as the products have still not saturated the market as a whole

Opportunities and Threats

a) Opportunities

Road Development The ongoing road development program would improve

connectivity to ports cities and villages through a network of highways and

interconnecting roads by 2010-11 Improved road network would help in faster

34

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

movement of goods between various cities and towns The Company launched TATA

Novus range of vehicles in the heavy segment and TATA ACE for last mile distribution

Car penetration in India Car penetration in India is 7 cars per 1000 persons

International In FY 2006-07 the Company increased share of its overseas vehicle sales

from 76 last year to record high of 111 (as of its total sales) and has planned

further increase in this year

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

PORTERrsquoS MODEL

43

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

SWOT ANALYSIS

STRENGHS

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

COMPANY ANALYSIS

The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific parts

A) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the AccountsATHE DIRECTORrsquoS REPORTThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship Fundamental AnalysisB THE AUDITORS REPORTThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

Start = higher Low + break above previous High

The end is signaled by a lower high (peak) followed by a decline below the previous low (trough)

End = lower High + break below previous Low

A bear trend starts at the end of a bull trend when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

Large Corrections

A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

14

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A bull trend starts when price rallies above the previous high

A bull trend ends when price declines below the previous low

A bear trend starts at the end of a bull trend (and vice versa)

32 ELLIOT WAVES THEORY BASICS

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS

A CONCEPTUAL OVERVIEW

18

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Fundamental analysis refers to the study of the core underlying elements that influence the economy of a particular entity It is a method of study that attempts to predict price action and market trends by analyzing economic indicators government policy and societal factors (to name just a few elements) within a business cycle framework

I ECONOMIC ANALYSIS

POLITICO-ECONOMIC ANALYSIS No industry or company can exist in isolation It may have splendid managers and a tremendous product However its sales and its costs are affected by factors some of which are beyond its control - the world economy price inflation taxes and a host of others It is important therefore to have an appreciation of the politico-economic factors that affect an industry and a company

The political equationA stable political environment is necessary for steady balanced growth If a country is ruled by a stable government which takes decisions for the long-term development of the country industry and companies will prosper Foreign Exchange ReservesA country needs foreign exchange reserves to meet its commitments pay for its imports and service foreign debts

Foreign Exchange RiskThis is a real risk and one must be cognizant of the effect of a revaluation or devaluation of the currency either in the home country or in the country the company deals in

Restrictive PracticesRestrictive practices or cartels imposed by countries can affect companies and industries crystallizing the exposure

Foreign Debt and the Balance of Trade

19

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Foreign debt especially if it is very large can be a tremendous burden on an economy India pays around $ 5 billion a year in principal repayments and interest payments InflationInflation has an enormous effect in the economy Within the country it erodes purchasing power As a consequence demand falls If the rate of inflation in the country from which a company imports is high then the cost of production in that country will automatically go up

The Threat of NationalizationThe threat of nationalization is a real threat in many countries ndash the fear that a company may become nationalized

Interest RatesA low interest rate stimulates investment and industry Conversely high interest rates result in higher cost of production and lower consumption

TaxationThe level of taxation in a country has a direct effect on the economy If tax rates are low people have more disposable income

Government PolicyGovernment policy has a direct impact on the economy A government that is perceived to be proindustry will attract investment

THE ECONOMIC CYCLE

It affects investment decisions employment demand and the profitability of companiesThe four stages of an economic cycle are DepressionRecoveryBoom Recession DepressionAt the time of depression demand is low and falling Inflation is high and so are interest rates Companies crippled by high borrowing and falling sales are forced to curtail production close down plants built at times of higher demand and let workers go

RecoveryDuring this phase the economy begins to recover Investment begins anew and the demand grows Companies begin to post profits Conspicuous spending begins once again

Boom

20

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

In the boom phase demand reaches an all time high Investment is also high Interest rates are low Gradually as time goes on supply begins to exceed the demand Prices that had been rising begin to stabilize and even fall There is an increase in demand Then as the boom period matures prices begin to rise again

RecessionThe economy slowly begins to downturn Demand starts falling Interest rates and inflation are high Companies start finding it difficult to sell their goods The economy slowly begins to downturn

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

The importance of industry analysis is now dawning on the Indian investor as never before

CycleThe first step in industry is to determine the cycle it is in or the stage of maturity of the industry All industries evolve through the following stages1 Entrepreneurial sunrise or nascent stage2 Expansion or growth stage3 Stabilization stagnation or maturity stage and4 Decline or sunset stage to properly establish itself In the early days it may actually make losses

The Entrepreneurial or Nascent Stage

21

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

At the first stage the industry is new and it can take some time for it to properly establish itself

The Expansion or Growth StageOnce the industry has established itself it enters a growth stage As the industry grows many new companies enter the industry

The Stabilization or Maturity StageAfter the halcyon days of growth an industry matures and stabilizes Rewards are low and so too is the risk Growth is moderate Though sales may increase they do so at a slower rate than before Products are more standardized and less innovative and there are several competitors

The Decline or Sunset StageFinally the industry declines This occurs when its products are no longer popular This may be on account of several factors such as a change in social habits The film and video industries

1 BARRIER TO ENTRYNew entrants increase the capacity in an industry and the inflow of funds The question that arises is how easy is it to enter an industry There are some barriers to entry

a) Economies of scaleb) Product differentiation c) Capital requirementd) Switching costse) Access to distribution channelsf) Cost disadvantages independent of scaleg) Government policyh) Expected retaliationj) International cartels

2 THE THREAT OF SUBSTITUTIONNew inventions are always taking place and new and better products replace existing ones An industry that can be replaced by substitutes or is threatened by substitutes is normally an industry one must be careful of investing in An industry where this occurs constantly is the packaging industry -bottles replaced by cans cans replaced by plastic bottles and the like To ward off the threat of substitution companies often have to spend large sums of money in advertising and promotion

3 BARGAINING POWER OF THE BUYERSIn an industry where buyers have control ie in a buyers market buyers are constantly forcing prices down demanding better services or higher quality and this often erodes profitability The factors one should check are whether

22

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

a) A particular buyer buys most of the products (large purchase volumes) If such buyers withdraw their patronage they can destroy an industry They can also force prices downb) Buyers can play one company against another to bring prices down

4 BARGAINING POWER FOR THE SUPPLIERSAn industry unduly controlled by its suppliers is also under threat This occurs whena) The suppliers have a monopoly or if there are few suppliersb) Suppliers control an essential c) Demand for the product exceeds d) The supplier supplies to various industriese) The switching costs are highf) The suppliers product does not have a substituteg) The suppliers product is an important input for the buyersh) The buyer is not important to the supplieri) The suppliers product is unique

5 RIVALRY AMONG COMPETITORSRivalry among competitors can cause an industry great harm This occurs mainly by price cuts heavy advertising additional high cost services or offers and the like This rivalry occurs mainly whena) There are many competitors and supply exceeds demand Companies resort to price cuts and advertise heavily in order to attract customers for their goodsb) The industry growth is slow and companies are competing with each other for a greater market sharec) The economy is in a recession and companies cut the price of their products and offer better service to stimulate demandd) There is lack of differentiation between the product of one company and that of another In such cases the buyer makes his choice on the basis of price or servicee) In some industries economies of scale will necessitate large additions to existing capacities in a company The increase in production could result in over capacity amp price cuttingf) Competitors may have very different strategies in selling their goods and in competing they may be continuously trying to stay ahead

III COMPANY ANALYSIS

At the final stage of fundamental analysis the investor analyzes the company This analysis has two thrustsHow has the company performed vis-agrave-vis other similar companies and How has the company performed in comparison to earlier years It is imperative that one completes the politico economic analysis and the industry analysis before a company is analyzed because the companys performance at a period of time is to an extent a reflection of the economy the political situation and the industry What does one look at when analyzing a company The different issues regarding a company that should be examined are The Management

23

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The Company The Annual Report Ratios Cash flow

THE MANAGEMENT

The single most important factor one should consider when investing in a company and one often never considered is its management In India management can be broadlydivided in two types Family Management Professional Management

THE COMPANY

An aspect not necessarily examined during an analysis of fundamentals is the company A company may have made losses consecutively for two years or more and one may not wish to touch its shares - yet it may be a good company and worth purchasing into There are several factors one should look at

1 How a company is perceived by its competitorsOne of the key factors to ascertain is how a company is perceived by its competitors It is held in high regard Its management may be known for its maturity vision competence and aggressiveness The investor must ascertain the reason and then determine whetherthe reason will continue into the foreseeable future

2 Whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segmentAnother aspect that should be ascertained is whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segment When you invest in market leaders the risk is less Theshares of market leaders do not fall as quickly as those of other companies There is a magic to their name that would make individuals prefer to buy their products as opposed to others

3 Company PoliciesThe policy a company follows is also important What is its plans for growth What is its vision Every company has a life If it is allowed to live a normal life it will grow upto a point and then begin to level out and eventually die It is at the point of leveling out that it must be given new life This can give it renewed vigour and a new lease of life

4 Labour RelationsLabour relations are extremely important A company that has motivated industrious work force has high productivity and practically no disruption of work On the other hand a company that has bad industrial relations will lose several hundred mandays as a consequence of strikes and go slows

24

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

5 Where the company is located and where its factories are One must also consider where the companies Plants and Factories are located

THE ANNUAL REPORT

The primary and most important source of information about a company is its Annual Report By law this is prepared every year and distributed to the shareholders Annual Reports are usually very well presented A tremendous amount of data is given about the performance of a company over a period of time The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific partsA) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the Accounts

A The Directorrsquos ReportThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship 1 It enunciates the opinion of the directors on the state of the economy and the political situation vis-agrave-vis the company 2 Explains the performance and the financial results of the company in the period under review This is an extremely important part The results and operations of the various separate divisions are usually detailed and investors can determine the reasons for their good or bad performance3 The Directorrsquos Report details the companys plans for modernization expansion and diversification Without these a company will remain static and eventually decline4 Discusses the profit earned in the period under review and the dividend Recommended by the directors This paragraph should normally be read with some skepticism as the directors will always argue that the performance was satisfactory If adverse economic conditions are usually at fault 5 Elaborates on the directors views of the companys prospects in the future6 Discusses plans for new acquisition and investments An investor must intelligently evaluate the issues raised in a Directorrsquos Report Industry conditions and the managements knowledge of the business must be considered

B The Auditors ReportThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors Auditors are required to report whether the financial statements presented do in fact present a true and fair view of the state of the company Investors must remember that the auditors are their representatives and that they are required by law to point out if the financial statements are not true and fair

CFinancial Statements

25

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The published financial statements of a company in an Annual Report consist of its Balance Sheet as at the end of the accounting period detailing the financing condition of the company at that date and the Profit and Loss Account or Income Statement summarizing the activities of the company for the accounting period

BALANCE SHEETThe Balance Sheet details the financial position of a company on a particular date of the companys assets (that which the company owns) and liabilities (that which the companyowes) grouped logically under specific heads It must however be noted that the Balance Sheet details the financial position on a particular day and that the position can be materially different on the next day or the day after

PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNTThe Profit and Loss account summarizes the activities of a company during an accounting period which may be a month a quarter six months a year or longer and the result achieved by the company It details the income earned by the company its cost and the resulting profit or loss It is in effect the performance appraisal not only of the company but also of its management- its competence foresight and ability to lead

RATIOS

Ratios express mathematically the relationship between performance figures andor assetsliabilities in a form that can be easily understood and interpretedNo single ratio tells the complete storyRatios can be broken down into four broad categories

26

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(A) Profit and Loss RatiosThese show the relationship between two items or groups of items in a profit and loss account or income statement The more common of these ratios are1 Sales to cost of goods sold2 Selling expenses to sales3 Net profit to sales and4 Gross profit to sales

(B) Balance Sheet RatiosThese deal with the relationship in the balance sheet such as 1 Shareholders equity to borrowed funds2 Current assets to current liabilities3 Liabilities to net worth4 Debt to assets and5 Liabilities to assets

(C) Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Account RatiosThese relate an item on the balance sheet to another in the profit and loss account such as1 Earnings to shareholders funds2 Net income to assets employed3 Sales to stock4 Sales to debtors and5 Cost of goods sold to creditors

(D) Financial Statements and Market RatiosThese are normally known as market ratios and are arrived at by relative financial figures to market prices1 Market value to earnings and2 Book value to market value(a) Market value(b) Earnings(c) Profitability(d) Liquidity(e) Leverage(f) Debt Service Capacity(g) Asset ManagementEfficiency(h) Margins

The major ratios that are considered(i) Market value(ii) Price- earnings ratio(iii) Market-to-book ratio(iv) Earnings(v) Earning per share(vi) Dividend per share

27

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(vii) Dividend payout ratio(viii) Leverage ratios(ix) Return on investmentstotal assets

CASH FLOW A statement of sources and uses begins with the profit for the year to which are added the increases in liability accounts (sources) and from which are reduced the increases in asset accounts (uses) The net result shows whether there has been an excess or deficit of funds and how this was financed Investors must examine a companys cash flow as it reveals exactly where the money came from how it was utilized Investors must be concerned if a company is financing either its inventories or paying dividends from borrowings without real growth as that shows deterioration

CHAPTER-4 ANALYSIS

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

I FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF STOCKS

Basically fundamental analysis is covered in 3 parts

1 Market economy analysis

2 Industry Analysis

3 Company Analysis

1) TATA MOTORS

I Market Economy Analysis

It covers the macro economy analysis and the various macro economic factors on the national level like GDP Monetary policies of India Fiscal Policies and Inflation and money supply etc

GDP

Real GDP growth accelerated from 75 per cent during 2004-05 to 84 per cent during

2005-06 on the back of buoyant manufacturing and services activity supported by a

recovery in the agricultural sector Real GDP growth has thus averaged over eight per

cent during the last three years and over seven per cent in the first four years (2002-03 to

2005-06) of the Tenth Five Year Plan

Strengths of India today are

30

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A well diversified industrial base which profits from self-reliance in all core industries A

large amp sophisticated financial architecture - The robust capital Markets today have over

9000 listed companies and boast of a massive Market capitalization

A healthy GDP composition with agriculture contributing 22 Industry 22 and

services which have gone strength to strength accounting For 56 of the GDP an

acknowledged strength in knowledge driven industries like Information technology

biotechnology entertainment Software etc

India has Over 3 million scientific amp technical manpower Over 06 million SampT post

graduates Over 07 million graduate engineers Over 3500 doctorates in sciences every

year

Assuming trend growth in agriculture under normal monsoon conditions and barring

domestic or external shocks the Reserve Bank in its Annual Policy Statement for 2007-

08 (April 2007) placed real GDP growth for policy purposes in the range of 75-80 per

cent during 2007-08 Growth prospects are however subject to a number of downside

risks The risks emanating from the global economy are potential escalation and

volatility in international crude oil prices firming up of overall inflationary pressures and

expectations and a hardening of international interest rates along with the withdrawal of

monetary accommodation

Indiarsquos demographic advantage ndash In contrast to developed Countries India will have a

younger population for the next 50 years Hence India would be the hub for RampD

Inflation

Inflation was contained to 63 per cent by end-March 2007 within the indicative

trajectory of 50-55 per cent during 2007-08 The actual inflation was considerably lower

than the indicative trajectory and this could be mainly attributed to the deferred pass-

through of even the cognisable permanent component of international crude oil prices

Money Supply

31

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Monetary and liquidity conditions remained largely comfortable during 2006-07reflecting

proactive liquidity management operations by the Reserve Bank under the liquidity

adjustment facility flexible management of issuances under the market stabilisation

scheme and some private placement of Government securities

In short the Indian economy is exhibiting strong fundamentals and displaying

considerable resilience At the same time there are continuing signs of demand pressures

especially high credit growth that could exert upward pressure on prices when associated

with supply shocks such as from oil These pressures have the potential for impacting

stability and inflation expectations While domestic developments continue to dominate

the economy global factors tend to gain more attention now than before The global

outlook for growth is positive but downside risks in regard to inflation also RBI is

applying new repo and reverse repo for the balance of inflation and monetary policies

The following are macroeconomic policies generally found as part of government-

directed industrial auto policies

(a) Restrictions on domestic and foreign investment

(b) Domestic content requirements

(c) High tariff walls

(d) Auto export requirements

(e) National production to sales ratios

(f) Distribution controls

(g) Quotas and licensing requirements that significantly restrict imports

(h) Government approval for product related decisions including vehicle make

body type engine size etc

(i) Special government categories for auto taxes

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry Today it is

amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output multiplier of

224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy) In recent

32

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

years we have seen increasing number of global players entering Indian market by way of

Joint ventures collaborations or wholly owned subsidiary

The automobile industry is torn between trying to reduce costs on the one hand and on

the other dealing with the high price of performance-enhancing technology and

environmental compliance Key drivers in the automotive industry are

Reducing air pollution

Reduction of weight

Recyclability

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

The automobile market is at the maturity stage of the life cycle locally and globally due

to an increased number of competitors from domestic and foreign markets The

automobile market is characterized by a low potential for market growth but high sales

and profit potential as the products have still not saturated the market as a whole

Opportunities and Threats

a) Opportunities

Road Development The ongoing road development program would improve

connectivity to ports cities and villages through a network of highways and

interconnecting roads by 2010-11 Improved road network would help in faster

34

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

movement of goods between various cities and towns The Company launched TATA

Novus range of vehicles in the heavy segment and TATA ACE for last mile distribution

Car penetration in India Car penetration in India is 7 cars per 1000 persons

International In FY 2006-07 the Company increased share of its overseas vehicle sales

from 76 last year to record high of 111 (as of its total sales) and has planned

further increase in this year

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

GLOSSARY

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A bull trend starts when price rallies above the previous high

A bull trend ends when price declines below the previous low

A bear trend starts at the end of a bull trend (and vice versa)

32 ELLIOT WAVES THEORY BASICS

TRENDLINES

Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations (which causes supplydemand lines to shift)

15

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

An Uptrend is defined by successively higher low-prices A rising trend can be thought of as a rising support level the bulls are in control and are pushing prices higher A Downtrend is defined by successively lower high-prices A falling trend can be thought of as a falling resistance level the bears are in control and are pushing prices lower

33 MOVING AVERAGES

Moving averages are one of the oldest and most popular technical analysis tools A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument over a given time

The moving average represents the consensus of investorrsquos expectations over the indicated period of time

The classic interpretation of a moving average is to use it in observing changes in prices Investors typically buy when the price of an instrument rises above its moving average and sell when the it falls below its moving average

TECHNICAL INDICATORS

There is a vast number of elaborated technical indicators

CHAPTER- 3

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS

A CONCEPTUAL OVERVIEW

18

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Fundamental analysis refers to the study of the core underlying elements that influence the economy of a particular entity It is a method of study that attempts to predict price action and market trends by analyzing economic indicators government policy and societal factors (to name just a few elements) within a business cycle framework

I ECONOMIC ANALYSIS

POLITICO-ECONOMIC ANALYSIS No industry or company can exist in isolation It may have splendid managers and a tremendous product However its sales and its costs are affected by factors some of which are beyond its control - the world economy price inflation taxes and a host of others It is important therefore to have an appreciation of the politico-economic factors that affect an industry and a company

The political equationA stable political environment is necessary for steady balanced growth If a country is ruled by a stable government which takes decisions for the long-term development of the country industry and companies will prosper Foreign Exchange ReservesA country needs foreign exchange reserves to meet its commitments pay for its imports and service foreign debts

Foreign Exchange RiskThis is a real risk and one must be cognizant of the effect of a revaluation or devaluation of the currency either in the home country or in the country the company deals in

Restrictive PracticesRestrictive practices or cartels imposed by countries can affect companies and industries crystallizing the exposure

Foreign Debt and the Balance of Trade

19

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Foreign debt especially if it is very large can be a tremendous burden on an economy India pays around $ 5 billion a year in principal repayments and interest payments InflationInflation has an enormous effect in the economy Within the country it erodes purchasing power As a consequence demand falls If the rate of inflation in the country from which a company imports is high then the cost of production in that country will automatically go up

The Threat of NationalizationThe threat of nationalization is a real threat in many countries ndash the fear that a company may become nationalized

Interest RatesA low interest rate stimulates investment and industry Conversely high interest rates result in higher cost of production and lower consumption

TaxationThe level of taxation in a country has a direct effect on the economy If tax rates are low people have more disposable income

Government PolicyGovernment policy has a direct impact on the economy A government that is perceived to be proindustry will attract investment

THE ECONOMIC CYCLE

It affects investment decisions employment demand and the profitability of companiesThe four stages of an economic cycle are DepressionRecoveryBoom Recession DepressionAt the time of depression demand is low and falling Inflation is high and so are interest rates Companies crippled by high borrowing and falling sales are forced to curtail production close down plants built at times of higher demand and let workers go

RecoveryDuring this phase the economy begins to recover Investment begins anew and the demand grows Companies begin to post profits Conspicuous spending begins once again

Boom

20

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

In the boom phase demand reaches an all time high Investment is also high Interest rates are low Gradually as time goes on supply begins to exceed the demand Prices that had been rising begin to stabilize and even fall There is an increase in demand Then as the boom period matures prices begin to rise again

RecessionThe economy slowly begins to downturn Demand starts falling Interest rates and inflation are high Companies start finding it difficult to sell their goods The economy slowly begins to downturn

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

The importance of industry analysis is now dawning on the Indian investor as never before

CycleThe first step in industry is to determine the cycle it is in or the stage of maturity of the industry All industries evolve through the following stages1 Entrepreneurial sunrise or nascent stage2 Expansion or growth stage3 Stabilization stagnation or maturity stage and4 Decline or sunset stage to properly establish itself In the early days it may actually make losses

The Entrepreneurial or Nascent Stage

21

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

At the first stage the industry is new and it can take some time for it to properly establish itself

The Expansion or Growth StageOnce the industry has established itself it enters a growth stage As the industry grows many new companies enter the industry

The Stabilization or Maturity StageAfter the halcyon days of growth an industry matures and stabilizes Rewards are low and so too is the risk Growth is moderate Though sales may increase they do so at a slower rate than before Products are more standardized and less innovative and there are several competitors

The Decline or Sunset StageFinally the industry declines This occurs when its products are no longer popular This may be on account of several factors such as a change in social habits The film and video industries

1 BARRIER TO ENTRYNew entrants increase the capacity in an industry and the inflow of funds The question that arises is how easy is it to enter an industry There are some barriers to entry

a) Economies of scaleb) Product differentiation c) Capital requirementd) Switching costse) Access to distribution channelsf) Cost disadvantages independent of scaleg) Government policyh) Expected retaliationj) International cartels

2 THE THREAT OF SUBSTITUTIONNew inventions are always taking place and new and better products replace existing ones An industry that can be replaced by substitutes or is threatened by substitutes is normally an industry one must be careful of investing in An industry where this occurs constantly is the packaging industry -bottles replaced by cans cans replaced by plastic bottles and the like To ward off the threat of substitution companies often have to spend large sums of money in advertising and promotion

3 BARGAINING POWER OF THE BUYERSIn an industry where buyers have control ie in a buyers market buyers are constantly forcing prices down demanding better services or higher quality and this often erodes profitability The factors one should check are whether

22

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

a) A particular buyer buys most of the products (large purchase volumes) If such buyers withdraw their patronage they can destroy an industry They can also force prices downb) Buyers can play one company against another to bring prices down

4 BARGAINING POWER FOR THE SUPPLIERSAn industry unduly controlled by its suppliers is also under threat This occurs whena) The suppliers have a monopoly or if there are few suppliersb) Suppliers control an essential c) Demand for the product exceeds d) The supplier supplies to various industriese) The switching costs are highf) The suppliers product does not have a substituteg) The suppliers product is an important input for the buyersh) The buyer is not important to the supplieri) The suppliers product is unique

5 RIVALRY AMONG COMPETITORSRivalry among competitors can cause an industry great harm This occurs mainly by price cuts heavy advertising additional high cost services or offers and the like This rivalry occurs mainly whena) There are many competitors and supply exceeds demand Companies resort to price cuts and advertise heavily in order to attract customers for their goodsb) The industry growth is slow and companies are competing with each other for a greater market sharec) The economy is in a recession and companies cut the price of their products and offer better service to stimulate demandd) There is lack of differentiation between the product of one company and that of another In such cases the buyer makes his choice on the basis of price or servicee) In some industries economies of scale will necessitate large additions to existing capacities in a company The increase in production could result in over capacity amp price cuttingf) Competitors may have very different strategies in selling their goods and in competing they may be continuously trying to stay ahead

III COMPANY ANALYSIS

At the final stage of fundamental analysis the investor analyzes the company This analysis has two thrustsHow has the company performed vis-agrave-vis other similar companies and How has the company performed in comparison to earlier years It is imperative that one completes the politico economic analysis and the industry analysis before a company is analyzed because the companys performance at a period of time is to an extent a reflection of the economy the political situation and the industry What does one look at when analyzing a company The different issues regarding a company that should be examined are The Management

23

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The Company The Annual Report Ratios Cash flow

THE MANAGEMENT

The single most important factor one should consider when investing in a company and one often never considered is its management In India management can be broadlydivided in two types Family Management Professional Management

THE COMPANY

An aspect not necessarily examined during an analysis of fundamentals is the company A company may have made losses consecutively for two years or more and one may not wish to touch its shares - yet it may be a good company and worth purchasing into There are several factors one should look at

1 How a company is perceived by its competitorsOne of the key factors to ascertain is how a company is perceived by its competitors It is held in high regard Its management may be known for its maturity vision competence and aggressiveness The investor must ascertain the reason and then determine whetherthe reason will continue into the foreseeable future

2 Whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segmentAnother aspect that should be ascertained is whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segment When you invest in market leaders the risk is less Theshares of market leaders do not fall as quickly as those of other companies There is a magic to their name that would make individuals prefer to buy their products as opposed to others

3 Company PoliciesThe policy a company follows is also important What is its plans for growth What is its vision Every company has a life If it is allowed to live a normal life it will grow upto a point and then begin to level out and eventually die It is at the point of leveling out that it must be given new life This can give it renewed vigour and a new lease of life

4 Labour RelationsLabour relations are extremely important A company that has motivated industrious work force has high productivity and practically no disruption of work On the other hand a company that has bad industrial relations will lose several hundred mandays as a consequence of strikes and go slows

24

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

5 Where the company is located and where its factories are One must also consider where the companies Plants and Factories are located

THE ANNUAL REPORT

The primary and most important source of information about a company is its Annual Report By law this is prepared every year and distributed to the shareholders Annual Reports are usually very well presented A tremendous amount of data is given about the performance of a company over a period of time The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific partsA) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the Accounts

A The Directorrsquos ReportThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship 1 It enunciates the opinion of the directors on the state of the economy and the political situation vis-agrave-vis the company 2 Explains the performance and the financial results of the company in the period under review This is an extremely important part The results and operations of the various separate divisions are usually detailed and investors can determine the reasons for their good or bad performance3 The Directorrsquos Report details the companys plans for modernization expansion and diversification Without these a company will remain static and eventually decline4 Discusses the profit earned in the period under review and the dividend Recommended by the directors This paragraph should normally be read with some skepticism as the directors will always argue that the performance was satisfactory If adverse economic conditions are usually at fault 5 Elaborates on the directors views of the companys prospects in the future6 Discusses plans for new acquisition and investments An investor must intelligently evaluate the issues raised in a Directorrsquos Report Industry conditions and the managements knowledge of the business must be considered

B The Auditors ReportThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors Auditors are required to report whether the financial statements presented do in fact present a true and fair view of the state of the company Investors must remember that the auditors are their representatives and that they are required by law to point out if the financial statements are not true and fair

CFinancial Statements

25

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The published financial statements of a company in an Annual Report consist of its Balance Sheet as at the end of the accounting period detailing the financing condition of the company at that date and the Profit and Loss Account or Income Statement summarizing the activities of the company for the accounting period

BALANCE SHEETThe Balance Sheet details the financial position of a company on a particular date of the companys assets (that which the company owns) and liabilities (that which the companyowes) grouped logically under specific heads It must however be noted that the Balance Sheet details the financial position on a particular day and that the position can be materially different on the next day or the day after

PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNTThe Profit and Loss account summarizes the activities of a company during an accounting period which may be a month a quarter six months a year or longer and the result achieved by the company It details the income earned by the company its cost and the resulting profit or loss It is in effect the performance appraisal not only of the company but also of its management- its competence foresight and ability to lead

RATIOS

Ratios express mathematically the relationship between performance figures andor assetsliabilities in a form that can be easily understood and interpretedNo single ratio tells the complete storyRatios can be broken down into four broad categories

26

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(A) Profit and Loss RatiosThese show the relationship between two items or groups of items in a profit and loss account or income statement The more common of these ratios are1 Sales to cost of goods sold2 Selling expenses to sales3 Net profit to sales and4 Gross profit to sales

(B) Balance Sheet RatiosThese deal with the relationship in the balance sheet such as 1 Shareholders equity to borrowed funds2 Current assets to current liabilities3 Liabilities to net worth4 Debt to assets and5 Liabilities to assets

(C) Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Account RatiosThese relate an item on the balance sheet to another in the profit and loss account such as1 Earnings to shareholders funds2 Net income to assets employed3 Sales to stock4 Sales to debtors and5 Cost of goods sold to creditors

(D) Financial Statements and Market RatiosThese are normally known as market ratios and are arrived at by relative financial figures to market prices1 Market value to earnings and2 Book value to market value(a) Market value(b) Earnings(c) Profitability(d) Liquidity(e) Leverage(f) Debt Service Capacity(g) Asset ManagementEfficiency(h) Margins

The major ratios that are considered(i) Market value(ii) Price- earnings ratio(iii) Market-to-book ratio(iv) Earnings(v) Earning per share(vi) Dividend per share

27

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(vii) Dividend payout ratio(viii) Leverage ratios(ix) Return on investmentstotal assets

CASH FLOW A statement of sources and uses begins with the profit for the year to which are added the increases in liability accounts (sources) and from which are reduced the increases in asset accounts (uses) The net result shows whether there has been an excess or deficit of funds and how this was financed Investors must examine a companys cash flow as it reveals exactly where the money came from how it was utilized Investors must be concerned if a company is financing either its inventories or paying dividends from borrowings without real growth as that shows deterioration

CHAPTER-4 ANALYSIS

29

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

I FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF STOCKS

Basically fundamental analysis is covered in 3 parts

1 Market economy analysis

2 Industry Analysis

3 Company Analysis

1) TATA MOTORS

I Market Economy Analysis

It covers the macro economy analysis and the various macro economic factors on the national level like GDP Monetary policies of India Fiscal Policies and Inflation and money supply etc

GDP

Real GDP growth accelerated from 75 per cent during 2004-05 to 84 per cent during

2005-06 on the back of buoyant manufacturing and services activity supported by a

recovery in the agricultural sector Real GDP growth has thus averaged over eight per

cent during the last three years and over seven per cent in the first four years (2002-03 to

2005-06) of the Tenth Five Year Plan

Strengths of India today are

30

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A well diversified industrial base which profits from self-reliance in all core industries A

large amp sophisticated financial architecture - The robust capital Markets today have over

9000 listed companies and boast of a massive Market capitalization

A healthy GDP composition with agriculture contributing 22 Industry 22 and

services which have gone strength to strength accounting For 56 of the GDP an

acknowledged strength in knowledge driven industries like Information technology

biotechnology entertainment Software etc

India has Over 3 million scientific amp technical manpower Over 06 million SampT post

graduates Over 07 million graduate engineers Over 3500 doctorates in sciences every

year

Assuming trend growth in agriculture under normal monsoon conditions and barring

domestic or external shocks the Reserve Bank in its Annual Policy Statement for 2007-

08 (April 2007) placed real GDP growth for policy purposes in the range of 75-80 per

cent during 2007-08 Growth prospects are however subject to a number of downside

risks The risks emanating from the global economy are potential escalation and

volatility in international crude oil prices firming up of overall inflationary pressures and

expectations and a hardening of international interest rates along with the withdrawal of

monetary accommodation

Indiarsquos demographic advantage ndash In contrast to developed Countries India will have a

younger population for the next 50 years Hence India would be the hub for RampD

Inflation

Inflation was contained to 63 per cent by end-March 2007 within the indicative

trajectory of 50-55 per cent during 2007-08 The actual inflation was considerably lower

than the indicative trajectory and this could be mainly attributed to the deferred pass-

through of even the cognisable permanent component of international crude oil prices

Money Supply

31

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Monetary and liquidity conditions remained largely comfortable during 2006-07reflecting

proactive liquidity management operations by the Reserve Bank under the liquidity

adjustment facility flexible management of issuances under the market stabilisation

scheme and some private placement of Government securities

In short the Indian economy is exhibiting strong fundamentals and displaying

considerable resilience At the same time there are continuing signs of demand pressures

especially high credit growth that could exert upward pressure on prices when associated

with supply shocks such as from oil These pressures have the potential for impacting

stability and inflation expectations While domestic developments continue to dominate

the economy global factors tend to gain more attention now than before The global

outlook for growth is positive but downside risks in regard to inflation also RBI is

applying new repo and reverse repo for the balance of inflation and monetary policies

The following are macroeconomic policies generally found as part of government-

directed industrial auto policies

(a) Restrictions on domestic and foreign investment

(b) Domestic content requirements

(c) High tariff walls

(d) Auto export requirements

(e) National production to sales ratios

(f) Distribution controls

(g) Quotas and licensing requirements that significantly restrict imports

(h) Government approval for product related decisions including vehicle make

body type engine size etc

(i) Special government categories for auto taxes

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry Today it is

amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output multiplier of

224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy) In recent

32

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

years we have seen increasing number of global players entering Indian market by way of

Joint ventures collaborations or wholly owned subsidiary

The automobile industry is torn between trying to reduce costs on the one hand and on

the other dealing with the high price of performance-enhancing technology and

environmental compliance Key drivers in the automotive industry are

Reducing air pollution

Reduction of weight

Recyclability

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

The automobile market is at the maturity stage of the life cycle locally and globally due

to an increased number of competitors from domestic and foreign markets The

automobile market is characterized by a low potential for market growth but high sales

and profit potential as the products have still not saturated the market as a whole

Opportunities and Threats

a) Opportunities

Road Development The ongoing road development program would improve

connectivity to ports cities and villages through a network of highways and

interconnecting roads by 2010-11 Improved road network would help in faster

34

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

movement of goods between various cities and towns The Company launched TATA

Novus range of vehicles in the heavy segment and TATA ACE for last mile distribution

Car penetration in India Car penetration in India is 7 cars per 1000 persons

International In FY 2006-07 the Company increased share of its overseas vehicle sales

from 76 last year to record high of 111 (as of its total sales) and has planned

further increase in this year

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

SWOT ANALYSIS

STRENGHS

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

An Uptrend is defined by successively higher low-prices A rising trend can be thought of as a rising support level the bulls are in control and are pushing prices higher A Downtrend is defined by successively lower high-prices A falling trend can be thought of as a falling resistance level the bears are in control and are pushing prices lower

33 MOVING AVERAGES

Moving averages are one of the oldest and most popular technical analysis tools A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument over a given time

The moving average represents the consensus of investorrsquos expectations over the indicated period of time

The classic interpretation of a moving average is to use it in observing changes in prices Investors typically buy when the price of an instrument rises above its moving average and sell when the it falls below its moving average

TECHNICAL INDICATORS

CHAPTER- 3

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS

A CONCEPTUAL OVERVIEW

18

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Fundamental analysis refers to the study of the core underlying elements that influence the economy of a particular entity It is a method of study that attempts to predict price action and market trends by analyzing economic indicators government policy and societal factors (to name just a few elements) within a business cycle framework

I ECONOMIC ANALYSIS

POLITICO-ECONOMIC ANALYSIS No industry or company can exist in isolation It may have splendid managers and a tremendous product However its sales and its costs are affected by factors some of which are beyond its control - the world economy price inflation taxes and a host of others It is important therefore to have an appreciation of the politico-economic factors that affect an industry and a company

The political equationA stable political environment is necessary for steady balanced growth If a country is ruled by a stable government which takes decisions for the long-term development of the country industry and companies will prosper Foreign Exchange ReservesA country needs foreign exchange reserves to meet its commitments pay for its imports and service foreign debts

Foreign Exchange RiskThis is a real risk and one must be cognizant of the effect of a revaluation or devaluation of the currency either in the home country or in the country the company deals in

Restrictive PracticesRestrictive practices or cartels imposed by countries can affect companies and industries crystallizing the exposure

Foreign Debt and the Balance of Trade

19

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Foreign debt especially if it is very large can be a tremendous burden on an economy India pays around $ 5 billion a year in principal repayments and interest payments InflationInflation has an enormous effect in the economy Within the country it erodes purchasing power As a consequence demand falls If the rate of inflation in the country from which a company imports is high then the cost of production in that country will automatically go up

The Threat of NationalizationThe threat of nationalization is a real threat in many countries ndash the fear that a company may become nationalized

Interest RatesA low interest rate stimulates investment and industry Conversely high interest rates result in higher cost of production and lower consumption

TaxationThe level of taxation in a country has a direct effect on the economy If tax rates are low people have more disposable income

Government PolicyGovernment policy has a direct impact on the economy A government that is perceived to be proindustry will attract investment

THE ECONOMIC CYCLE

It affects investment decisions employment demand and the profitability of companiesThe four stages of an economic cycle are DepressionRecoveryBoom Recession DepressionAt the time of depression demand is low and falling Inflation is high and so are interest rates Companies crippled by high borrowing and falling sales are forced to curtail production close down plants built at times of higher demand and let workers go

RecoveryDuring this phase the economy begins to recover Investment begins anew and the demand grows Companies begin to post profits Conspicuous spending begins once again

Boom

20

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

In the boom phase demand reaches an all time high Investment is also high Interest rates are low Gradually as time goes on supply begins to exceed the demand Prices that had been rising begin to stabilize and even fall There is an increase in demand Then as the boom period matures prices begin to rise again

RecessionThe economy slowly begins to downturn Demand starts falling Interest rates and inflation are high Companies start finding it difficult to sell their goods The economy slowly begins to downturn

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

The importance of industry analysis is now dawning on the Indian investor as never before

CycleThe first step in industry is to determine the cycle it is in or the stage of maturity of the industry All industries evolve through the following stages1 Entrepreneurial sunrise or nascent stage2 Expansion or growth stage3 Stabilization stagnation or maturity stage and4 Decline or sunset stage to properly establish itself In the early days it may actually make losses

The Entrepreneurial or Nascent Stage

21

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

At the first stage the industry is new and it can take some time for it to properly establish itself

The Expansion or Growth StageOnce the industry has established itself it enters a growth stage As the industry grows many new companies enter the industry

The Stabilization or Maturity StageAfter the halcyon days of growth an industry matures and stabilizes Rewards are low and so too is the risk Growth is moderate Though sales may increase they do so at a slower rate than before Products are more standardized and less innovative and there are several competitors

The Decline or Sunset StageFinally the industry declines This occurs when its products are no longer popular This may be on account of several factors such as a change in social habits The film and video industries

1 BARRIER TO ENTRYNew entrants increase the capacity in an industry and the inflow of funds The question that arises is how easy is it to enter an industry There are some barriers to entry

a) Economies of scaleb) Product differentiation c) Capital requirementd) Switching costse) Access to distribution channelsf) Cost disadvantages independent of scaleg) Government policyh) Expected retaliationj) International cartels

2 THE THREAT OF SUBSTITUTIONNew inventions are always taking place and new and better products replace existing ones An industry that can be replaced by substitutes or is threatened by substitutes is normally an industry one must be careful of investing in An industry where this occurs constantly is the packaging industry -bottles replaced by cans cans replaced by plastic bottles and the like To ward off the threat of substitution companies often have to spend large sums of money in advertising and promotion

3 BARGAINING POWER OF THE BUYERSIn an industry where buyers have control ie in a buyers market buyers are constantly forcing prices down demanding better services or higher quality and this often erodes profitability The factors one should check are whether

22

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

a) A particular buyer buys most of the products (large purchase volumes) If such buyers withdraw their patronage they can destroy an industry They can also force prices downb) Buyers can play one company against another to bring prices down

4 BARGAINING POWER FOR THE SUPPLIERSAn industry unduly controlled by its suppliers is also under threat This occurs whena) The suppliers have a monopoly or if there are few suppliersb) Suppliers control an essential c) Demand for the product exceeds d) The supplier supplies to various industriese) The switching costs are highf) The suppliers product does not have a substituteg) The suppliers product is an important input for the buyersh) The buyer is not important to the supplieri) The suppliers product is unique

5 RIVALRY AMONG COMPETITORSRivalry among competitors can cause an industry great harm This occurs mainly by price cuts heavy advertising additional high cost services or offers and the like This rivalry occurs mainly whena) There are many competitors and supply exceeds demand Companies resort to price cuts and advertise heavily in order to attract customers for their goodsb) The industry growth is slow and companies are competing with each other for a greater market sharec) The economy is in a recession and companies cut the price of their products and offer better service to stimulate demandd) There is lack of differentiation between the product of one company and that of another In such cases the buyer makes his choice on the basis of price or servicee) In some industries economies of scale will necessitate large additions to existing capacities in a company The increase in production could result in over capacity amp price cuttingf) Competitors may have very different strategies in selling their goods and in competing they may be continuously trying to stay ahead

III COMPANY ANALYSIS

At the final stage of fundamental analysis the investor analyzes the company This analysis has two thrustsHow has the company performed vis-agrave-vis other similar companies and How has the company performed in comparison to earlier years It is imperative that one completes the politico economic analysis and the industry analysis before a company is analyzed because the companys performance at a period of time is to an extent a reflection of the economy the political situation and the industry What does one look at when analyzing a company The different issues regarding a company that should be examined are The Management

23

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The Company The Annual Report Ratios Cash flow

THE MANAGEMENT

The single most important factor one should consider when investing in a company and one often never considered is its management In India management can be broadlydivided in two types Family Management Professional Management

THE COMPANY

An aspect not necessarily examined during an analysis of fundamentals is the company A company may have made losses consecutively for two years or more and one may not wish to touch its shares - yet it may be a good company and worth purchasing into There are several factors one should look at

1 How a company is perceived by its competitorsOne of the key factors to ascertain is how a company is perceived by its competitors It is held in high regard Its management may be known for its maturity vision competence and aggressiveness The investor must ascertain the reason and then determine whetherthe reason will continue into the foreseeable future

2 Whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segmentAnother aspect that should be ascertained is whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segment When you invest in market leaders the risk is less Theshares of market leaders do not fall as quickly as those of other companies There is a magic to their name that would make individuals prefer to buy their products as opposed to others

3 Company PoliciesThe policy a company follows is also important What is its plans for growth What is its vision Every company has a life If it is allowed to live a normal life it will grow upto a point and then begin to level out and eventually die It is at the point of leveling out that it must be given new life This can give it renewed vigour and a new lease of life

4 Labour RelationsLabour relations are extremely important A company that has motivated industrious work force has high productivity and practically no disruption of work On the other hand a company that has bad industrial relations will lose several hundred mandays as a consequence of strikes and go slows

24

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

5 Where the company is located and where its factories are One must also consider where the companies Plants and Factories are located

THE ANNUAL REPORT

The primary and most important source of information about a company is its Annual Report By law this is prepared every year and distributed to the shareholders Annual Reports are usually very well presented A tremendous amount of data is given about the performance of a company over a period of time The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific partsA) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the Accounts

A The Directorrsquos ReportThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship 1 It enunciates the opinion of the directors on the state of the economy and the political situation vis-agrave-vis the company 2 Explains the performance and the financial results of the company in the period under review This is an extremely important part The results and operations of the various separate divisions are usually detailed and investors can determine the reasons for their good or bad performance3 The Directorrsquos Report details the companys plans for modernization expansion and diversification Without these a company will remain static and eventually decline4 Discusses the profit earned in the period under review and the dividend Recommended by the directors This paragraph should normally be read with some skepticism as the directors will always argue that the performance was satisfactory If adverse economic conditions are usually at fault 5 Elaborates on the directors views of the companys prospects in the future6 Discusses plans for new acquisition and investments An investor must intelligently evaluate the issues raised in a Directorrsquos Report Industry conditions and the managements knowledge of the business must be considered

B The Auditors ReportThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors Auditors are required to report whether the financial statements presented do in fact present a true and fair view of the state of the company Investors must remember that the auditors are their representatives and that they are required by law to point out if the financial statements are not true and fair

CFinancial Statements

25

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The published financial statements of a company in an Annual Report consist of its Balance Sheet as at the end of the accounting period detailing the financing condition of the company at that date and the Profit and Loss Account or Income Statement summarizing the activities of the company for the accounting period

BALANCE SHEETThe Balance Sheet details the financial position of a company on a particular date of the companys assets (that which the company owns) and liabilities (that which the companyowes) grouped logically under specific heads It must however be noted that the Balance Sheet details the financial position on a particular day and that the position can be materially different on the next day or the day after

PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNTThe Profit and Loss account summarizes the activities of a company during an accounting period which may be a month a quarter six months a year or longer and the result achieved by the company It details the income earned by the company its cost and the resulting profit or loss It is in effect the performance appraisal not only of the company but also of its management- its competence foresight and ability to lead

RATIOS

Ratios express mathematically the relationship between performance figures andor assetsliabilities in a form that can be easily understood and interpretedNo single ratio tells the complete storyRatios can be broken down into four broad categories

26

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

I FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF STOCKS

Basically fundamental analysis is covered in 3 parts

1 Market economy analysis

2 Industry Analysis

3 Company Analysis

1) TATA MOTORS

I Market Economy Analysis

It covers the macro economy analysis and the various macro economic factors on the national level like GDP Monetary policies of India Fiscal Policies and Inflation and money supply etc

GDP

Real GDP growth accelerated from 75 per cent during 2004-05 to 84 per cent during

2005-06 on the back of buoyant manufacturing and services activity supported by a

recovery in the agricultural sector Real GDP growth has thus averaged over eight per

cent during the last three years and over seven per cent in the first four years (2002-03 to

2005-06) of the Tenth Five Year Plan

Strengths of India today are

30

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A well diversified industrial base which profits from self-reliance in all core industries A

large amp sophisticated financial architecture - The robust capital Markets today have over

9000 listed companies and boast of a massive Market capitalization

A healthy GDP composition with agriculture contributing 22 Industry 22 and

services which have gone strength to strength accounting For 56 of the GDP an

acknowledged strength in knowledge driven industries like Information technology

biotechnology entertainment Software etc

India has Over 3 million scientific amp technical manpower Over 06 million SampT post

graduates Over 07 million graduate engineers Over 3500 doctorates in sciences every

year

Assuming trend growth in agriculture under normal monsoon conditions and barring

domestic or external shocks the Reserve Bank in its Annual Policy Statement for 2007-

08 (April 2007) placed real GDP growth for policy purposes in the range of 75-80 per

cent during 2007-08 Growth prospects are however subject to a number of downside

risks The risks emanating from the global economy are potential escalation and

volatility in international crude oil prices firming up of overall inflationary pressures and

expectations and a hardening of international interest rates along with the withdrawal of

monetary accommodation

Indiarsquos demographic advantage ndash In contrast to developed Countries India will have a

younger population for the next 50 years Hence India would be the hub for RampD

Inflation

Inflation was contained to 63 per cent by end-March 2007 within the indicative

trajectory of 50-55 per cent during 2007-08 The actual inflation was considerably lower

than the indicative trajectory and this could be mainly attributed to the deferred pass-

through of even the cognisable permanent component of international crude oil prices

Money Supply

31

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Monetary and liquidity conditions remained largely comfortable during 2006-07reflecting

proactive liquidity management operations by the Reserve Bank under the liquidity

adjustment facility flexible management of issuances under the market stabilisation

scheme and some private placement of Government securities

In short the Indian economy is exhibiting strong fundamentals and displaying

considerable resilience At the same time there are continuing signs of demand pressures

especially high credit growth that could exert upward pressure on prices when associated

with supply shocks such as from oil These pressures have the potential for impacting

stability and inflation expectations While domestic developments continue to dominate

the economy global factors tend to gain more attention now than before The global

outlook for growth is positive but downside risks in regard to inflation also RBI is

applying new repo and reverse repo for the balance of inflation and monetary policies

The following are macroeconomic policies generally found as part of government-

directed industrial auto policies

(a) Restrictions on domestic and foreign investment

(b) Domestic content requirements

(c) High tariff walls

(d) Auto export requirements

(e) National production to sales ratios

(f) Distribution controls

(g) Quotas and licensing requirements that significantly restrict imports

(h) Government approval for product related decisions including vehicle make

body type engine size etc

(i) Special government categories for auto taxes

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry Today it is

amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output multiplier of

224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy) In recent

32

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

years we have seen increasing number of global players entering Indian market by way of

Joint ventures collaborations or wholly owned subsidiary

The automobile industry is torn between trying to reduce costs on the one hand and on

the other dealing with the high price of performance-enhancing technology and

environmental compliance Key drivers in the automotive industry are

Reducing air pollution

Reduction of weight

Recyclability

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

The automobile market is at the maturity stage of the life cycle locally and globally due

to an increased number of competitors from domestic and foreign markets The

automobile market is characterized by a low potential for market growth but high sales

and profit potential as the products have still not saturated the market as a whole

Opportunities and Threats

a) Opportunities

Road Development The ongoing road development program would improve

connectivity to ports cities and villages through a network of highways and

interconnecting roads by 2010-11 Improved road network would help in faster

34

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

movement of goods between various cities and towns The Company launched TATA

Novus range of vehicles in the heavy segment and TATA ACE for last mile distribution

Car penetration in India Car penetration in India is 7 cars per 1000 persons

International In FY 2006-07 the Company increased share of its overseas vehicle sales

from 76 last year to record high of 111 (as of its total sales) and has planned

further increase in this year

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

PORTERrsquoS MODEL

43

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

SWOT ANALYSIS

STRENGHS

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

COMPANY ANALYSIS

The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific parts

A) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the AccountsATHE DIRECTORrsquoS REPORTThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship Fundamental AnalysisB THE AUDITORS REPORTThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS

A CONCEPTUAL OVERVIEW

18

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Fundamental analysis refers to the study of the core underlying elements that influence the economy of a particular entity It is a method of study that attempts to predict price action and market trends by analyzing economic indicators government policy and societal factors (to name just a few elements) within a business cycle framework

I ECONOMIC ANALYSIS

POLITICO-ECONOMIC ANALYSIS No industry or company can exist in isolation It may have splendid managers and a tremendous product However its sales and its costs are affected by factors some of which are beyond its control - the world economy price inflation taxes and a host of others It is important therefore to have an appreciation of the politico-economic factors that affect an industry and a company

The political equationA stable political environment is necessary for steady balanced growth If a country is ruled by a stable government which takes decisions for the long-term development of the country industry and companies will prosper Foreign Exchange ReservesA country needs foreign exchange reserves to meet its commitments pay for its imports and service foreign debts

Foreign Exchange RiskThis is a real risk and one must be cognizant of the effect of a revaluation or devaluation of the currency either in the home country or in the country the company deals in

Restrictive PracticesRestrictive practices or cartels imposed by countries can affect companies and industries crystallizing the exposure

Foreign Debt and the Balance of Trade

19

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Foreign debt especially if it is very large can be a tremendous burden on an economy India pays around $ 5 billion a year in principal repayments and interest payments InflationInflation has an enormous effect in the economy Within the country it erodes purchasing power As a consequence demand falls If the rate of inflation in the country from which a company imports is high then the cost of production in that country will automatically go up

The Threat of NationalizationThe threat of nationalization is a real threat in many countries ndash the fear that a company may become nationalized

Interest RatesA low interest rate stimulates investment and industry Conversely high interest rates result in higher cost of production and lower consumption

TaxationThe level of taxation in a country has a direct effect on the economy If tax rates are low people have more disposable income

Government PolicyGovernment policy has a direct impact on the economy A government that is perceived to be proindustry will attract investment

THE ECONOMIC CYCLE

It affects investment decisions employment demand and the profitability of companiesThe four stages of an economic cycle are DepressionRecoveryBoom Recession DepressionAt the time of depression demand is low and falling Inflation is high and so are interest rates Companies crippled by high borrowing and falling sales are forced to curtail production close down plants built at times of higher demand and let workers go

RecoveryDuring this phase the economy begins to recover Investment begins anew and the demand grows Companies begin to post profits Conspicuous spending begins once again

Boom

In the boom phase demand reaches an all time high Investment is also high Interest rates are low Gradually as time goes on supply begins to exceed the demand Prices that had been rising begin to stabilize and even fall There is an increase in demand Then as the boom period matures prices begin to rise again

RecessionThe economy slowly begins to downturn Demand starts falling Interest rates and inflation are high Companies start finding it difficult to sell their goods The economy slowly begins to downturn

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

The importance of industry analysis is now dawning on the Indian investor as never before

CycleThe first step in industry is to determine the cycle it is in or the stage of maturity of the industry All industries evolve through the following stages1 Entrepreneurial sunrise or nascent stage2 Expansion or growth stage3 Stabilization stagnation or maturity stage and4 Decline or sunset stage to properly establish itself In the early days it may actually make losses

The Entrepreneurial or Nascent Stage

21

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

At the first stage the industry is new and it can take some time for it to properly establish itself

The Expansion or Growth StageOnce the industry has established itself it enters a growth stage As the industry grows many new companies enter the industry

The Stabilization or Maturity StageAfter the halcyon days of growth an industry matures and stabilizes Rewards are low and so too is the risk Growth is moderate Though sales may increase they do so at a slower rate than before Products are more standardized and less innovative and there are several competitors

The Decline or Sunset StageFinally the industry declines This occurs when its products are no longer popular This may be on account of several factors such as a change in social habits The film and video industries

1 BARRIER TO ENTRYNew entrants increase the capacity in an industry and the inflow of funds The question that arises is how easy is it to enter an industry There are some barriers to entry

a) Economies of scaleb) Product differentiation c) Capital requirementd) Switching costse) Access to distribution channelsf) Cost disadvantages independent of scaleg) Government policyh) Expected retaliationj) International cartels

2 THE THREAT OF SUBSTITUTIONNew inventions are always taking place and new and better products replace existing ones An industry that can be replaced by substitutes or is threatened by substitutes is normally an industry one must be careful of investing in An industry where this occurs constantly is the packaging industry -bottles replaced by cans cans replaced by plastic bottles and the like To ward off the threat of substitution companies often have to spend large sums of money in advertising and promotion

3 BARGAINING POWER OF THE BUYERSIn an industry where buyers have control ie in a buyers market buyers are constantly forcing prices down demanding better services or higher quality and this often erodes profitability The factors one should check are whether

22

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

a) A particular buyer buys most of the products (large purchase volumes) If such buyers withdraw their patronage they can destroy an industry They can also force prices downb) Buyers can play one company against another to bring prices down

4 BARGAINING POWER FOR THE SUPPLIERSAn industry unduly controlled by its suppliers is also under threat This occurs whena) The suppliers have a monopoly or if there are few suppliersb) Suppliers control an essential c) Demand for the product exceeds d) The supplier supplies to various industriese) The switching costs are highf) The suppliers product does not have a substituteg) The suppliers product is an important input for the buyersh) The buyer is not important to the supplieri) The suppliers product is unique

5 RIVALRY AMONG COMPETITORSRivalry among competitors can cause an industry great harm This occurs mainly by price cuts heavy advertising additional high cost services or offers and the like This rivalry occurs mainly whena) There are many competitors and supply exceeds demand Companies resort to price cuts and advertise heavily in order to attract customers for their goodsb) The industry growth is slow and companies are competing with each other for a greater market sharec) The economy is in a recession and companies cut the price of their products and offer better service to stimulate demandd) There is lack of differentiation between the product of one company and that of another In such cases the buyer makes his choice on the basis of price or servicee) In some industries economies of scale will necessitate large additions to existing capacities in a company The increase in production could result in over capacity amp price cuttingf) Competitors may have very different strategies in selling their goods and in competing they may be continuously trying to stay ahead

III COMPANY ANALYSIS

At the final stage of fundamental analysis the investor analyzes the company This analysis has two thrustsHow has the company performed vis-agrave-vis other similar companies and How has the company performed in comparison to earlier years It is imperative that one completes the politico economic analysis and the industry analysis before a company is analyzed because the companys performance at a period of time is to an extent a reflection of the economy the political situation and the industry What does one look at when analyzing a company The different issues regarding a company that should be examined are The Management

23

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The Company The Annual Report Ratios Cash flow

THE MANAGEMENT

The single most important factor one should consider when investing in a company and one often never considered is its management In India management can be broadlydivided in two types Family Management Professional Management

THE COMPANY

An aspect not necessarily examined during an analysis of fundamentals is the company A company may have made losses consecutively for two years or more and one may not wish to touch its shares - yet it may be a good company and worth purchasing into There are several factors one should look at

1 How a company is perceived by its competitorsOne of the key factors to ascertain is how a company is perceived by its competitors It is held in high regard Its management may be known for its maturity vision competence and aggressiveness The investor must ascertain the reason and then determine whetherthe reason will continue into the foreseeable future

2 Whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segmentAnother aspect that should be ascertained is whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segment When you invest in market leaders the risk is less Theshares of market leaders do not fall as quickly as those of other companies There is a magic to their name that would make individuals prefer to buy their products as opposed to others

3 Company PoliciesThe policy a company follows is also important What is its plans for growth What is its vision Every company has a life If it is allowed to live a normal life it will grow upto a point and then begin to level out and eventually die It is at the point of leveling out that it must be given new life This can give it renewed vigour and a new lease of life

4 Labour RelationsLabour relations are extremely important A company that has motivated industrious work force has high productivity and practically no disruption of work On the other hand a company that has bad industrial relations will lose several hundred mandays as a consequence of strikes and go slows

24

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

5 Where the company is located and where its factories are One must also consider where the companies Plants and Factories are located

THE ANNUAL REPORT

The primary and most important source of information about a company is its Annual Report By law this is prepared every year and distributed to the shareholders Annual Reports are usually very well presented A tremendous amount of data is given about the performance of a company over a period of time The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific partsA) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the Accounts

A The Directorrsquos ReportThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship 1 It enunciates the opinion of the directors on the state of the economy and the political situation vis-agrave-vis the company 2 Explains the performance and the financial results of the company in the period under review This is an extremely important part The results and operations of the various separate divisions are usually detailed and investors can determine the reasons for their good or bad performance3 The Directorrsquos Report details the companys plans for modernization expansion and diversification Without these a company will remain static and eventually decline4 Discusses the profit earned in the period under review and the dividend Recommended by the directors This paragraph should normally be read with some skepticism as the directors will always argue that the performance was satisfactory If adverse economic conditions are usually at fault 5 Elaborates on the directors views of the companys prospects in the future6 Discusses plans for new acquisition and investments An investor must intelligently evaluate the issues raised in a Directorrsquos Report Industry conditions and the managements knowledge of the business must be considered

B The Auditors ReportThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors Auditors are required to report whether the financial statements presented do in fact present a true and fair view of the state of the company Investors must remember that the auditors are their representatives and that they are required by law to point out if the financial statements are not true and fair

CFinancial Statements

25

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The published financial statements of a company in an Annual Report consist of its Balance Sheet as at the end of the accounting period detailing the financing condition of the company at that date and the Profit and Loss Account or Income Statement summarizing the activities of the company for the accounting period

BALANCE SHEETThe Balance Sheet details the financial position of a company on a particular date of the companys assets (that which the company owns) and liabilities (that which the companyowes) grouped logically under specific heads It must however be noted that the Balance Sheet details the financial position on a particular day and that the position can be materially different on the next day or the day after

PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNTThe Profit and Loss account summarizes the activities of a company during an accounting period which may be a month a quarter six months a year or longer and the result achieved by the company It details the income earned by the company its cost and the resulting profit or loss It is in effect the performance appraisal not only of the company but also of its management- its competence foresight and ability to lead

RATIOS

Ratios express mathematically the relationship between performance figures andor assetsliabilities in a form that can be easily understood and interpretedNo single ratio tells the complete storyRatios can be broken down into four broad categories

26

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(A) Profit and Loss RatiosThese show the relationship between two items or groups of items in a profit and loss account or income statement The more common of these ratios are1 Sales to cost of goods sold2 Selling expenses to sales3 Net profit to sales and4 Gross profit to sales

(B) Balance Sheet RatiosThese deal with the relationship in the balance sheet such as 1 Shareholders equity to borrowed funds2 Current assets to current liabilities3 Liabilities to net worth4 Debt to assets and5 Liabilities to assets

(C) Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Account RatiosThese relate an item on the balance sheet to another in the profit and loss account such as1 Earnings to shareholders funds2 Net income to assets employed3 Sales to stock4 Sales to debtors and5 Cost of goods sold to creditors

(D) Financial Statements and Market RatiosThese are normally known as market ratios and are arrived at by relative financial figures to market prices1 Market value to earnings and2 Book value to market value(a) Market value(b) Earnings(c) Profitability(d) Liquidity(e) Leverage(f) Debt Service Capacity(g) Asset ManagementEfficiency(h) Margins

The major ratios that are considered(i) Market value(ii) Price- earnings ratio(iii) Market-to-book ratio(iv) Earnings(v) Earning per share(vi) Dividend per share

27

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(vii) Dividend payout ratio(viii) Leverage ratios(ix) Return on investmentstotal assets

CASH FLOW A statement of sources and uses begins with the profit for the year to which are added the increases in liability accounts (sources) and from which are reduced the increases in asset accounts (uses) The net result shows whether there has been an excess or deficit of funds and how this was financed Investors must examine a companys cash flow as it reveals exactly where the money came from how it was utilized Investors must be concerned if a company is financing either its inventories or paying dividends from borrowings without real growth as that shows deterioration

CHAPTER-4 ANALYSIS

29

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

I FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF STOCKS

Basically fundamental analysis is covered in 3 parts

1 Market economy analysis

2 Industry Analysis

3 Company Analysis

1) TATA MOTORS

I Market Economy Analysis

It covers the macro economy analysis and the various macro economic factors on the national level like GDP Monetary policies of India Fiscal Policies and Inflation and money supply etc

GDP

Real GDP growth accelerated from 75 per cent during 2004-05 to 84 per cent during

2005-06 on the back of buoyant manufacturing and services activity supported by a

recovery in the agricultural sector Real GDP growth has thus averaged over eight per

cent during the last three years and over seven per cent in the first four years (2002-03 to

2005-06) of the Tenth Five Year Plan

Strengths of India today are

30

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A well diversified industrial base which profits from self-reliance in all core industries A

large amp sophisticated financial architecture - The robust capital Markets today have over

9000 listed companies and boast of a massive Market capitalization

A healthy GDP composition with agriculture contributing 22 Industry 22 and

services which have gone strength to strength accounting For 56 of the GDP an

acknowledged strength in knowledge driven industries like Information technology

biotechnology entertainment Software etc

India has Over 3 million scientific amp technical manpower Over 06 million SampT post

graduates Over 07 million graduate engineers Over 3500 doctorates in sciences every

year

Assuming trend growth in agriculture under normal monsoon conditions and barring

domestic or external shocks the Reserve Bank in its Annual Policy Statement for 2007-

08 (April 2007) placed real GDP growth for policy purposes in the range of 75-80 per

cent during 2007-08 Growth prospects are however subject to a number of downside

risks The risks emanating from the global economy are potential escalation and

volatility in international crude oil prices firming up of overall inflationary pressures and

expectations and a hardening of international interest rates along with the withdrawal of

monetary accommodation

Indiarsquos demographic advantage ndash In contrast to developed Countries India will have a

younger population for the next 50 years Hence India would be the hub for RampD

Inflation

Inflation was contained to 63 per cent by end-March 2007 within the indicative

trajectory of 50-55 per cent during 2007-08 The actual inflation was considerably lower

than the indicative trajectory and this could be mainly attributed to the deferred pass-

through of even the cognisable permanent component of international crude oil prices

Money Supply

31

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Monetary and liquidity conditions remained largely comfortable during 2006-07reflecting

proactive liquidity management operations by the Reserve Bank under the liquidity

adjustment facility flexible management of issuances under the market stabilisation

scheme and some private placement of Government securities

In short the Indian economy is exhibiting strong fundamentals and displaying

considerable resilience At the same time there are continuing signs of demand pressures

especially high credit growth that could exert upward pressure on prices when associated

with supply shocks such as from oil These pressures have the potential for impacting

stability and inflation expectations While domestic developments continue to dominate

the economy global factors tend to gain more attention now than before The global

outlook for growth is positive but downside risks in regard to inflation also RBI is

applying new repo and reverse repo for the balance of inflation and monetary policies

The following are macroeconomic policies generally found as part of government-

directed industrial auto policies

(a) Restrictions on domestic and foreign investment

(b) Domestic content requirements

(c) High tariff walls

(d) Auto export requirements

(e) National production to sales ratios

(f) Distribution controls

(g) Quotas and licensing requirements that significantly restrict imports

(h) Government approval for product related decisions including vehicle make

body type engine size etc

(i) Special government categories for auto taxes

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry Today it is

amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output multiplier of

224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy) In recent

32

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

years we have seen increasing number of global players entering Indian market by way of

Joint ventures collaborations or wholly owned subsidiary

The automobile industry is torn between trying to reduce costs on the one hand and on

the other dealing with the high price of performance-enhancing technology and

environmental compliance Key drivers in the automotive industry are

Reducing air pollution

Reduction of weight

Recyclability

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

The automobile market is at the maturity stage of the life cycle locally and globally due

to an increased number of competitors from domestic and foreign markets The

automobile market is characterized by a low potential for market growth but high sales

and profit potential as the products have still not saturated the market as a whole

Opportunities and Threats

a) Opportunities

Road Development The ongoing road development program would improve

connectivity to ports cities and villages through a network of highways and

interconnecting roads by 2010-11 Improved road network would help in faster

34

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

movement of goods between various cities and towns The Company launched TATA

Novus range of vehicles in the heavy segment and TATA ACE for last mile distribution

Car penetration in India Car penetration in India is 7 cars per 1000 persons

International In FY 2006-07 the Company increased share of its overseas vehicle sales

from 76 last year to record high of 111 (as of its total sales) and has planned

further increase in this year

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

PORTERrsquoS MODEL

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

COMPANY ANALYSIS

The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific parts

A) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the AccountsATHE DIRECTORrsquoS REPORTThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship Fundamental AnalysisB THE AUDITORS REPORTThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors

C FINANCIAL STATEMENTSIt comprises of Balance Sheet Profit and Loss account Cash Flows Its analysis would be discussed later

DSCHEDULESThe schedules detail pertinent information about the items of Balance Sheet and Profit amp Loss Account It also details information about sales manufacturing costs administration costs interest and other income and expenses

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

GLOSSARY

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 sharesHI-LO-CLOSE CHART A hi-lo-close chart is a bar chart showing for each day the

CHAPTER- 3

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS

A CONCEPTUAL OVERVIEW

18

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Fundamental analysis refers to the study of the core underlying elements that influence the economy of a particular entity It is a method of study that attempts to predict price action and market trends by analyzing economic indicators government policy and societal factors (to name just a few elements) within a business cycle framework

I ECONOMIC ANALYSIS

POLITICO-ECONOMIC ANALYSIS No industry or company can exist in isolation It may have splendid managers and a tremendous product However its sales and its costs are affected by factors some of which are beyond its control - the world economy price inflation taxes and a host of others It is important therefore to have an appreciation of the politico-economic factors that affect an industry and a company

The political equationA stable political environment is necessary for steady balanced growth If a country is ruled by a stable government which takes decisions for the long-term development of the country industry and companies will prosper Foreign Exchange ReservesA country needs foreign exchange reserves to meet its commitments pay for its imports and service foreign debts

Foreign Exchange RiskThis is a real risk and one must be cognizant of the effect of a revaluation or devaluation of the currency either in the home country or in the country the company deals in

Restrictive PracticesRestrictive practices or cartels imposed by countries can affect companies and industries crystallizing the exposure

Foreign Debt and the Balance of Trade

19

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Foreign debt especially if it is very large can be a tremendous burden on an economy India pays around $ 5 billion a year in principal repayments and interest payments InflationInflation has an enormous effect in the economy Within the country it erodes purchasing power As a consequence demand falls If the rate of inflation in the country from which a company imports is high then the cost of production in that country will automatically go up

The Threat of NationalizationThe threat of nationalization is a real threat in many countries ndash the fear that a company may become nationalized

Interest RatesA low interest rate stimulates investment and industry Conversely high interest rates result in higher cost of production and lower consumption

TaxationThe level of taxation in a country has a direct effect on the economy If tax rates are low people have more disposable income

Government PolicyGovernment policy has a direct impact on the economy A government that is perceived to be proindustry will attract investment

THE ECONOMIC CYCLE

It affects investment decisions employment demand and the profitability of companiesThe four stages of an economic cycle are DepressionRecoveryBoom Recession DepressionAt the time of depression demand is low and falling Inflation is high and so are interest rates Companies crippled by high borrowing and falling sales are forced to curtail production close down plants built at times of higher demand and let workers go

RecoveryDuring this phase the economy begins to recover Investment begins anew and the demand grows Companies begin to post profits Conspicuous spending begins once again

Boom

20

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

In the boom phase demand reaches an all time high Investment is also high Interest rates are low Gradually as time goes on supply begins to exceed the demand Prices that had been rising begin to stabilize and even fall There is an increase in demand Then as the boom period matures prices begin to rise again

RecessionThe economy slowly begins to downturn Demand starts falling Interest rates and inflation are high Companies start finding it difficult to sell their goods The economy slowly begins to downturn

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

The importance of industry analysis is now dawning on the Indian investor as never before

CycleThe first step in industry is to determine the cycle it is in or the stage of maturity of the industry All industries evolve through the following stages1 Entrepreneurial sunrise or nascent stage2 Expansion or growth stage3 Stabilization stagnation or maturity stage and4 Decline or sunset stage to properly establish itself In the early days it may actually make losses

The Entrepreneurial or Nascent Stage

21

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

At the first stage the industry is new and it can take some time for it to properly establish itself

The Expansion or Growth StageOnce the industry has established itself it enters a growth stage As the industry grows many new companies enter the industry

The Stabilization or Maturity StageAfter the halcyon days of growth an industry matures and stabilizes Rewards are low and so too is the risk Growth is moderate Though sales may increase they do so at a slower rate than before Products are more standardized and less innovative and there are several competitors

The Decline or Sunset StageFinally the industry declines This occurs when its products are no longer popular This may be on account of several factors such as a change in social habits The film and video industries

1 BARRIER TO ENTRYNew entrants increase the capacity in an industry and the inflow of funds The question that arises is how easy is it to enter an industry There are some barriers to entry

a) Economies of scaleb) Product differentiation c) Capital requirementd) Switching costse) Access to distribution channelsf) Cost disadvantages independent of scaleg) Government policyh) Expected retaliationj) International cartels

2 THE THREAT OF SUBSTITUTIONNew inventions are always taking place and new and better products replace existing ones An industry that can be replaced by substitutes or is threatened by substitutes is normally an industry one must be careful of investing in An industry where this occurs constantly is the packaging industry -bottles replaced by cans cans replaced by plastic bottles and the like To ward off the threat of substitution companies often have to spend large sums of money in advertising and promotion

3 BARGAINING POWER OF THE BUYERSIn an industry where buyers have control ie in a buyers market buyers are constantly forcing prices down demanding better services or higher quality and this often erodes profitability The factors one should check are whether

22

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

a) A particular buyer buys most of the products (large purchase volumes) If such buyers withdraw their patronage they can destroy an industry They can also force prices downb) Buyers can play one company against another to bring prices down

4 BARGAINING POWER FOR THE SUPPLIERSAn industry unduly controlled by its suppliers is also under threat This occurs whena) The suppliers have a monopoly or if there are few suppliersb) Suppliers control an essential c) Demand for the product exceeds d) The supplier supplies to various industriese) The switching costs are highf) The suppliers product does not have a substituteg) The suppliers product is an important input for the buyersh) The buyer is not important to the supplieri) The suppliers product is unique

5 RIVALRY AMONG COMPETITORSRivalry among competitors can cause an industry great harm This occurs mainly by price cuts heavy advertising additional high cost services or offers and the like This rivalry occurs mainly whena) There are many competitors and supply exceeds demand Companies resort to price cuts and advertise heavily in order to attract customers for their goodsb) The industry growth is slow and companies are competing with each other for a greater market sharec) The economy is in a recession and companies cut the price of their products and offer better service to stimulate demandd) There is lack of differentiation between the product of one company and that of another In such cases the buyer makes his choice on the basis of price or servicee) In some industries economies of scale will necessitate large additions to existing capacities in a company The increase in production could result in over capacity amp price cuttingf) Competitors may have very different strategies in selling their goods and in competing they may be continuously trying to stay ahead

III COMPANY ANALYSIS

At the final stage of fundamental analysis the investor analyzes the company This analysis has two thrustsHow has the company performed vis-agrave-vis other similar companies and How has the company performed in comparison to earlier years It is imperative that one completes the politico economic analysis and the industry analysis before a company is analyzed because the companys performance at a period of time is to an extent a reflection of the economy the political situation and the industry What does one look at when analyzing a company The different issues regarding a company that should be examined are The Management

23

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The Company The Annual Report Ratios Cash flow

THE MANAGEMENT

The single most important factor one should consider when investing in a company and one often never considered is its management In India management can be broadlydivided in two types Family Management Professional Management

THE COMPANY

An aspect not necessarily examined during an analysis of fundamentals is the company A company may have made losses consecutively for two years or more and one may not wish to touch its shares - yet it may be a good company and worth purchasing into There are several factors one should look at

1 How a company is perceived by its competitorsOne of the key factors to ascertain is how a company is perceived by its competitors It is held in high regard Its management may be known for its maturity vision competence and aggressiveness The investor must ascertain the reason and then determine whetherthe reason will continue into the foreseeable future

2 Whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segmentAnother aspect that should be ascertained is whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segment When you invest in market leaders the risk is less Theshares of market leaders do not fall as quickly as those of other companies There is a magic to their name that would make individuals prefer to buy their products as opposed to others

3 Company PoliciesThe policy a company follows is also important What is its plans for growth What is its vision Every company has a life If it is allowed to live a normal life it will grow upto a point and then begin to level out and eventually die It is at the point of leveling out that it must be given new life This can give it renewed vigour and a new lease of life

4 Labour RelationsLabour relations are extremely important A company that has motivated industrious work force has high productivity and practically no disruption of work On the other hand a company that has bad industrial relations will lose several hundred mandays as a consequence of strikes and go slows

24

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

5 Where the company is located and where its factories are One must also consider where the companies Plants and Factories are located

THE ANNUAL REPORT

The primary and most important source of information about a company is its Annual Report By law this is prepared every year and distributed to the shareholders Annual Reports are usually very well presented A tremendous amount of data is given about the performance of a company over a period of time The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific partsA) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the Accounts

A The Directorrsquos ReportThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship 1 It enunciates the opinion of the directors on the state of the economy and the political situation vis-agrave-vis the company 2 Explains the performance and the financial results of the company in the period under review This is an extremely important part The results and operations of the various separate divisions are usually detailed and investors can determine the reasons for their good or bad performance3 The Directorrsquos Report details the companys plans for modernization expansion and diversification Without these a company will remain static and eventually decline4 Discusses the profit earned in the period under review and the dividend Recommended by the directors This paragraph should normally be read with some skepticism as the directors will always argue that the performance was satisfactory If adverse economic conditions are usually at fault 5 Elaborates on the directors views of the companys prospects in the future6 Discusses plans for new acquisition and investments An investor must intelligently evaluate the issues raised in a Directorrsquos Report Industry conditions and the managements knowledge of the business must be considered

B The Auditors ReportThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors Auditors are required to report whether the financial statements presented do in fact present a true and fair view of the state of the company Investors must remember that the auditors are their representatives and that they are required by law to point out if the financial statements are not true and fair

CFinancial Statements

25

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The published financial statements of a company in an Annual Report consist of its Balance Sheet as at the end of the accounting period detailing the financing condition of the company at that date and the Profit and Loss Account or Income Statement summarizing the activities of the company for the accounting period

BALANCE SHEETThe Balance Sheet details the financial position of a company on a particular date of the companys assets (that which the company owns) and liabilities (that which the companyowes) grouped logically under specific heads It must however be noted that the Balance Sheet details the financial position on a particular day and that the position can be materially different on the next day or the day after

PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNTThe Profit and Loss account summarizes the activities of a company during an accounting period which may be a month a quarter six months a year or longer and the result achieved by the company It details the income earned by the company its cost and the resulting profit or loss It is in effect the performance appraisal not only of the company but also of its management- its competence foresight and ability to lead

RATIOS

Ratios express mathematically the relationship between performance figures andor assetsliabilities in a form that can be easily understood and interpretedNo single ratio tells the complete storyRatios can be broken down into four broad categories

26

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(A) Profit and Loss RatiosThese show the relationship between two items or groups of items in a profit and loss account or income statement The more common of these ratios are1 Sales to cost of goods sold2 Selling expenses to sales3 Net profit to sales and4 Gross profit to sales

(B) Balance Sheet RatiosThese deal with the relationship in the balance sheet such as 1 Shareholders equity to borrowed funds2 Current assets to current liabilities3 Liabilities to net worth4 Debt to assets and5 Liabilities to assets

(C) Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Account RatiosThese relate an item on the balance sheet to another in the profit and loss account such as1 Earnings to shareholders funds2 Net income to assets employed3 Sales to stock4 Sales to debtors and5 Cost of goods sold to creditors

(D) Financial Statements and Market RatiosThese are normally known as market ratios and are arrived at by relative financial figures to market prices1 Market value to earnings and2 Book value to market value(a) Market value(b) Earnings(c) Profitability(d) Liquidity(e) Leverage(f) Debt Service Capacity(g) Asset ManagementEfficiency(h) Margins

The major ratios that are considered(i) Market value(ii) Price- earnings ratio(iii) Market-to-book ratio(iv) Earnings(v) Earning per share(vi) Dividend per share

27

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(vii) Dividend payout ratio(viii) Leverage ratios(ix) Return on investmentstotal assets

CASH FLOW A statement of sources and uses begins with the profit for the year to which are added the increases in liability accounts (sources) and from which are reduced the increases in asset accounts (uses) The net result shows whether there has been an excess or deficit of funds and how this was financed Investors must examine a companys cash flow as it reveals exactly where the money came from how it was utilized Investors must be concerned if a company is financing either its inventories or paying dividends from borrowings without real growth as that shows deterioration

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

I FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF STOCKS

Basically fundamental analysis is covered in 3 parts

1 Market economy analysis

2 Industry Analysis

3 Company Analysis

1) TATA MOTORS

I Market Economy Analysis

It covers the macro economy analysis and the various macro economic factors on the national level like GDP Monetary policies of India Fiscal Policies and Inflation and money supply etc

GDP

Real GDP growth accelerated from 75 per cent during 2004-05 to 84 per cent during

2005-06 on the back of buoyant manufacturing and services activity supported by a

recovery in the agricultural sector Real GDP growth has thus averaged over eight per

cent during the last three years and over seven per cent in the first four years (2002-03 to

2005-06) of the Tenth Five Year Plan

Strengths of India today are

30

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A well diversified industrial base which profits from self-reliance in all core industries A

large amp sophisticated financial architecture - The robust capital Markets today have over

9000 listed companies and boast of a massive Market capitalization

A healthy GDP composition with agriculture contributing 22 Industry 22 and

services which have gone strength to strength accounting For 56 of the GDP an

acknowledged strength in knowledge driven industries like Information technology

biotechnology entertainment Software etc

India has Over 3 million scientific amp technical manpower Over 06 million SampT post

graduates Over 07 million graduate engineers Over 3500 doctorates in sciences every

year

Assuming trend growth in agriculture under normal monsoon conditions and barring

domestic or external shocks the Reserve Bank in its Annual Policy Statement for 2007-

08 (April 2007) placed real GDP growth for policy purposes in the range of 75-80 per

cent during 2007-08 Growth prospects are however subject to a number of downside

risks The risks emanating from the global economy are potential escalation and

volatility in international crude oil prices firming up of overall inflationary pressures and

expectations and a hardening of international interest rates along with the withdrawal of

monetary accommodation

Indiarsquos demographic advantage ndash In contrast to developed Countries India will have a

younger population for the next 50 years Hence India would be the hub for RampD

Inflation

Inflation was contained to 63 per cent by end-March 2007 within the indicative

trajectory of 50-55 per cent during 2007-08 The actual inflation was considerably lower

than the indicative trajectory and this could be mainly attributed to the deferred pass-

through of even the cognisable permanent component of international crude oil prices

Money Supply

31

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Monetary and liquidity conditions remained largely comfortable during 2006-07reflecting

proactive liquidity management operations by the Reserve Bank under the liquidity

adjustment facility flexible management of issuances under the market stabilisation

scheme and some private placement of Government securities

In short the Indian economy is exhibiting strong fundamentals and displaying

considerable resilience At the same time there are continuing signs of demand pressures

especially high credit growth that could exert upward pressure on prices when associated

with supply shocks such as from oil These pressures have the potential for impacting

stability and inflation expectations While domestic developments continue to dominate

the economy global factors tend to gain more attention now than before The global

outlook for growth is positive but downside risks in regard to inflation also RBI is

applying new repo and reverse repo for the balance of inflation and monetary policies

The following are macroeconomic policies generally found as part of government-

directed industrial auto policies

(a) Restrictions on domestic and foreign investment

(b) Domestic content requirements

(c) High tariff walls

(d) Auto export requirements

(e) National production to sales ratios

(f) Distribution controls

(g) Quotas and licensing requirements that significantly restrict imports

(h) Government approval for product related decisions including vehicle make

body type engine size etc

(i) Special government categories for auto taxes

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry Today it is

amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output multiplier of

224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy) In recent

32

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

years we have seen increasing number of global players entering Indian market by way of

Joint ventures collaborations or wholly owned subsidiary

The automobile industry is torn between trying to reduce costs on the one hand and on

the other dealing with the high price of performance-enhancing technology and

environmental compliance Key drivers in the automotive industry are

Reducing air pollution

Reduction of weight

Recyclability

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

The automobile market is at the maturity stage of the life cycle locally and globally due

to an increased number of competitors from domestic and foreign markets The

automobile market is characterized by a low potential for market growth but high sales

and profit potential as the products have still not saturated the market as a whole

Opportunities and Threats

a) Opportunities

Road Development The ongoing road development program would improve

connectivity to ports cities and villages through a network of highways and

interconnecting roads by 2010-11 Improved road network would help in faster

34

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

movement of goods between various cities and towns The Company launched TATA

Novus range of vehicles in the heavy segment and TATA ACE for last mile distribution

Car penetration in India Car penetration in India is 7 cars per 1000 persons

International In FY 2006-07 the Company increased share of its overseas vehicle sales

from 76 last year to record high of 111 (as of its total sales) and has planned

further increase in this year

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

SWOT ANALYSIS

STRENGHS

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

If we do not find the stock giving clear signal for intraday trading than we will leave the support or resistance field empty

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

ADVANCEDECLINE LINE The ldquoadvancedecline linerdquo shows for some period the cumulative difference between advancing and declining issues

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 sharesHI-LO-CLOSE CHART A hi-lo-close chart is a bar chart showing for each day the

CANDESTICK CHART A candlestick chart is an extended version of the hi-lo-close chart It plots the high low open and closing prices and also shows whether the closing price was above or below the opening price

POINT AND FIGURE CHARTS Point-and-figure charts are a way of showing only major price moves and their direction A ldquomajorrdquo up move is marked with an ldquoXrdquo while a ldquomajorrdquo down move is marked with an ldquoOrdquo A new column starts every time there is a change in direction

HEAD AND SHOULDERS FORMATION Once a chart is drawn technical analysts examine it for various formations or pattern types in an attempt to predict stock price or market direction in the case of head-and-shoulders formation

ODD-LOT The ldquoodd-lotrdquo indicator looks at whether odd-lot purchases are up or down

HEMLINE Followers of the ldquohemlinerdquo indicator claim that hemlines tend to rise in good times

SUPER BOWL The Super Bowl indicator forecasts the direction of the market based on whether the National Football Conference or the American Football Conference wins

BETA Beta is a risk measure comparing the volatility of a stocks price movement to the general market

MOMENTUM Momentum measures the speed of price change and provides a leading indicator of changes in trend

UPSIDEDOWNSIDE Measures of UpsideDownside separate the volumes for rising markets from those in falling markets Since volume is independent of price it makes a valuable tool for measuring the quality of a price trend

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Fundamental analysis refers to the study of the core underlying elements that influence the economy of a particular entity It is a method of study that attempts to predict price action and market trends by analyzing economic indicators government policy and societal factors (to name just a few elements) within a business cycle framework

I ECONOMIC ANALYSIS

POLITICO-ECONOMIC ANALYSIS No industry or company can exist in isolation It may have splendid managers and a tremendous product However its sales and its costs are affected by factors some of which are beyond its control - the world economy price inflation taxes and a host of others It is important therefore to have an appreciation of the politico-economic factors that affect an industry and a company

The political equationA stable political environment is necessary for steady balanced growth If a country is ruled by a stable government which takes decisions for the long-term development of the country industry and companies will prosper Foreign Exchange ReservesA country needs foreign exchange reserves to meet its commitments pay for its imports and service foreign debts

Foreign Exchange RiskThis is a real risk and one must be cognizant of the effect of a revaluation or devaluation of the currency either in the home country or in the country the company deals in

Restrictive PracticesRestrictive practices or cartels imposed by countries can affect companies and industries crystallizing the exposure

Foreign Debt and the Balance of Trade

19

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Foreign debt especially if it is very large can be a tremendous burden on an economy India pays around $ 5 billion a year in principal repayments and interest payments InflationInflation has an enormous effect in the economy Within the country it erodes purchasing power As a consequence demand falls If the rate of inflation in the country from which a company imports is high then the cost of production in that country will automatically go up

The Threat of NationalizationThe threat of nationalization is a real threat in many countries ndash the fear that a company may become nationalized

Interest RatesA low interest rate stimulates investment and industry Conversely high interest rates result in higher cost of production and lower consumption

TaxationThe level of taxation in a country has a direct effect on the economy If tax rates are low people have more disposable income

Government PolicyGovernment policy has a direct impact on the economy A government that is perceived to be proindustry will attract investment

THE ECONOMIC CYCLE

It affects investment decisions employment demand and the profitability of companiesThe four stages of an economic cycle are DepressionRecoveryBoom Recession DepressionAt the time of depression demand is low and falling Inflation is high and so are interest rates Companies crippled by high borrowing and falling sales are forced to curtail production close down plants built at times of higher demand and let workers go

RecoveryDuring this phase the economy begins to recover Investment begins anew and the demand grows Companies begin to post profits Conspicuous spending begins once again

Boom

20

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

In the boom phase demand reaches an all time high Investment is also high Interest rates are low Gradually as time goes on supply begins to exceed the demand Prices that had been rising begin to stabilize and even fall There is an increase in demand Then as the boom period matures prices begin to rise again

RecessionThe economy slowly begins to downturn Demand starts falling Interest rates and inflation are high Companies start finding it difficult to sell their goods The economy slowly begins to downturn

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

The importance of industry analysis is now dawning on the Indian investor as never before

CycleThe first step in industry is to determine the cycle it is in or the stage of maturity of the industry All industries evolve through the following stages1 Entrepreneurial sunrise or nascent stage2 Expansion or growth stage3 Stabilization stagnation or maturity stage and4 Decline or sunset stage to properly establish itself In the early days it may actually make losses

The Entrepreneurial or Nascent Stage

21

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

At the first stage the industry is new and it can take some time for it to properly establish itself

The Expansion or Growth StageOnce the industry has established itself it enters a growth stage As the industry grows many new companies enter the industry

The Stabilization or Maturity StageAfter the halcyon days of growth an industry matures and stabilizes Rewards are low and so too is the risk Growth is moderate Though sales may increase they do so at a slower rate than before Products are more standardized and less innovative and there are several competitors

The Decline or Sunset StageFinally the industry declines This occurs when its products are no longer popular This may be on account of several factors such as a change in social habits The film and video industries

1 BARRIER TO ENTRYNew entrants increase the capacity in an industry and the inflow of funds The question that arises is how easy is it to enter an industry There are some barriers to entry

a) Economies of scaleb) Product differentiation c) Capital requirementd) Switching costse) Access to distribution channelsf) Cost disadvantages independent of scaleg) Government policyh) Expected retaliationj) International cartels

2 THE THREAT OF SUBSTITUTIONNew inventions are always taking place and new and better products replace existing ones An industry that can be replaced by substitutes or is threatened by substitutes is normally an industry one must be careful of investing in An industry where this occurs constantly is the packaging industry -bottles replaced by cans cans replaced by plastic bottles and the like To ward off the threat of substitution companies often have to spend large sums of money in advertising and promotion

3 BARGAINING POWER OF THE BUYERSIn an industry where buyers have control ie in a buyers market buyers are constantly forcing prices down demanding better services or higher quality and this often erodes profitability The factors one should check are whether

22

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

a) A particular buyer buys most of the products (large purchase volumes) If such buyers withdraw their patronage they can destroy an industry They can also force prices downb) Buyers can play one company against another to bring prices down

4 BARGAINING POWER FOR THE SUPPLIERSAn industry unduly controlled by its suppliers is also under threat This occurs whena) The suppliers have a monopoly or if there are few suppliersb) Suppliers control an essential c) Demand for the product exceeds d) The supplier supplies to various industriese) The switching costs are highf) The suppliers product does not have a substituteg) The suppliers product is an important input for the buyersh) The buyer is not important to the supplieri) The suppliers product is unique

5 RIVALRY AMONG COMPETITORSRivalry among competitors can cause an industry great harm This occurs mainly by price cuts heavy advertising additional high cost services or offers and the like This rivalry occurs mainly whena) There are many competitors and supply exceeds demand Companies resort to price cuts and advertise heavily in order to attract customers for their goodsb) The industry growth is slow and companies are competing with each other for a greater market sharec) The economy is in a recession and companies cut the price of their products and offer better service to stimulate demandd) There is lack of differentiation between the product of one company and that of another In such cases the buyer makes his choice on the basis of price or servicee) In some industries economies of scale will necessitate large additions to existing capacities in a company The increase in production could result in over capacity amp price cuttingf) Competitors may have very different strategies in selling their goods and in competing they may be continuously trying to stay ahead

III COMPANY ANALYSIS

At the final stage of fundamental analysis the investor analyzes the company This analysis has two thrustsHow has the company performed vis-agrave-vis other similar companies and How has the company performed in comparison to earlier years It is imperative that one completes the politico economic analysis and the industry analysis before a company is analyzed because the companys performance at a period of time is to an extent a reflection of the economy the political situation and the industry What does one look at when analyzing a company The different issues regarding a company that should be examined are The Management

23

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The Company The Annual Report Ratios Cash flow

THE MANAGEMENT

The single most important factor one should consider when investing in a company and one often never considered is its management In India management can be broadlydivided in two types Family Management Professional Management

THE COMPANY

An aspect not necessarily examined during an analysis of fundamentals is the company A company may have made losses consecutively for two years or more and one may not wish to touch its shares - yet it may be a good company and worth purchasing into There are several factors one should look at

1 How a company is perceived by its competitorsOne of the key factors to ascertain is how a company is perceived by its competitors It is held in high regard Its management may be known for its maturity vision competence and aggressiveness The investor must ascertain the reason and then determine whetherthe reason will continue into the foreseeable future

2 Whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segmentAnother aspect that should be ascertained is whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segment When you invest in market leaders the risk is less Theshares of market leaders do not fall as quickly as those of other companies There is a magic to their name that would make individuals prefer to buy their products as opposed to others

3 Company PoliciesThe policy a company follows is also important What is its plans for growth What is its vision Every company has a life If it is allowed to live a normal life it will grow upto a point and then begin to level out and eventually die It is at the point of leveling out that it must be given new life This can give it renewed vigour and a new lease of life

4 Labour RelationsLabour relations are extremely important A company that has motivated industrious work force has high productivity and practically no disruption of work On the other hand a company that has bad industrial relations will lose several hundred mandays as a consequence of strikes and go slows

24

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

5 Where the company is located and where its factories are One must also consider where the companies Plants and Factories are located

THE ANNUAL REPORT

The primary and most important source of information about a company is its Annual Report By law this is prepared every year and distributed to the shareholders Annual Reports are usually very well presented A tremendous amount of data is given about the performance of a company over a period of time The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific partsA) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the Accounts

A The Directorrsquos ReportThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship 1 It enunciates the opinion of the directors on the state of the economy and the political situation vis-agrave-vis the company 2 Explains the performance and the financial results of the company in the period under review This is an extremely important part The results and operations of the various separate divisions are usually detailed and investors can determine the reasons for their good or bad performance3 The Directorrsquos Report details the companys plans for modernization expansion and diversification Without these a company will remain static and eventually decline4 Discusses the profit earned in the period under review and the dividend Recommended by the directors This paragraph should normally be read with some skepticism as the directors will always argue that the performance was satisfactory If adverse economic conditions are usually at fault 5 Elaborates on the directors views of the companys prospects in the future6 Discusses plans for new acquisition and investments An investor must intelligently evaluate the issues raised in a Directorrsquos Report Industry conditions and the managements knowledge of the business must be considered

B The Auditors ReportThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors Auditors are required to report whether the financial statements presented do in fact present a true and fair view of the state of the company Investors must remember that the auditors are their representatives and that they are required by law to point out if the financial statements are not true and fair

CFinancial Statements

25

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The published financial statements of a company in an Annual Report consist of its Balance Sheet as at the end of the accounting period detailing the financing condition of the company at that date and the Profit and Loss Account or Income Statement summarizing the activities of the company for the accounting period

BALANCE SHEETThe Balance Sheet details the financial position of a company on a particular date of the companys assets (that which the company owns) and liabilities (that which the companyowes) grouped logically under specific heads It must however be noted that the Balance Sheet details the financial position on a particular day and that the position can be materially different on the next day or the day after

PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNTThe Profit and Loss account summarizes the activities of a company during an accounting period which may be a month a quarter six months a year or longer and the result achieved by the company It details the income earned by the company its cost and the resulting profit or loss It is in effect the performance appraisal not only of the company but also of its management- its competence foresight and ability to lead

RATIOS

Ratios express mathematically the relationship between performance figures andor assetsliabilities in a form that can be easily understood and interpretedNo single ratio tells the complete storyRatios can be broken down into four broad categories

26

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(A) Profit and Loss RatiosThese show the relationship between two items or groups of items in a profit and loss account or income statement The more common of these ratios are1 Sales to cost of goods sold2 Selling expenses to sales3 Net profit to sales and4 Gross profit to sales

(B) Balance Sheet RatiosThese deal with the relationship in the balance sheet such as 1 Shareholders equity to borrowed funds2 Current assets to current liabilities3 Liabilities to net worth4 Debt to assets and5 Liabilities to assets

(C) Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Account RatiosThese relate an item on the balance sheet to another in the profit and loss account such as1 Earnings to shareholders funds2 Net income to assets employed3 Sales to stock4 Sales to debtors and5 Cost of goods sold to creditors

(D) Financial Statements and Market RatiosThese are normally known as market ratios and are arrived at by relative financial figures to market prices1 Market value to earnings and2 Book value to market value(a) Market value(b) Earnings(c) Profitability(d) Liquidity(e) Leverage(f) Debt Service Capacity(g) Asset ManagementEfficiency(h) Margins

The major ratios that are considered(i) Market value(ii) Price- earnings ratio(iii) Market-to-book ratio(iv) Earnings(v) Earning per share(vi) Dividend per share

27

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(vii) Dividend payout ratio(viii) Leverage ratios(ix) Return on investmentstotal assets

CASH FLOW A statement of sources and uses begins with the profit for the year to which are added the increases in liability accounts (sources) and from which are reduced the increases in asset accounts (uses) The net result shows whether there has been an excess or deficit of funds and how this was financed Investors must examine a companys cash flow as it reveals exactly where the money came from how it was utilized Investors must be concerned if a company is financing either its inventories or paying dividends from borrowings without real growth as that shows deterioration

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

I FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF STOCKS

Basically fundamental analysis is covered in 3 parts

1 Market economy analysis

2 Industry Analysis

3 Company Analysis

1) TATA MOTORS

I Market Economy Analysis

It covers the macro economy analysis and the various macro economic factors on the national level like GDP Monetary policies of India Fiscal Policies and Inflation and money supply etc

GDP

Real GDP growth accelerated from 75 per cent during 2004-05 to 84 per cent during

2005-06 on the back of buoyant manufacturing and services activity supported by a

recovery in the agricultural sector Real GDP growth has thus averaged over eight per

cent during the last three years and over seven per cent in the first four years (2002-03 to

2005-06) of the Tenth Five Year Plan

Strengths of India today are

30

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A well diversified industrial base which profits from self-reliance in all core industries A

large amp sophisticated financial architecture - The robust capital Markets today have over

9000 listed companies and boast of a massive Market capitalization

A healthy GDP composition with agriculture contributing 22 Industry 22 and

services which have gone strength to strength accounting For 56 of the GDP an

acknowledged strength in knowledge driven industries like Information technology

biotechnology entertainment Software etc

India has Over 3 million scientific amp technical manpower Over 06 million SampT post

graduates Over 07 million graduate engineers Over 3500 doctorates in sciences every

year

Assuming trend growth in agriculture under normal monsoon conditions and barring

domestic or external shocks the Reserve Bank in its Annual Policy Statement for 2007-

08 (April 2007) placed real GDP growth for policy purposes in the range of 75-80 per

cent during 2007-08 Growth prospects are however subject to a number of downside

risks The risks emanating from the global economy are potential escalation and

volatility in international crude oil prices firming up of overall inflationary pressures and

expectations and a hardening of international interest rates along with the withdrawal of

monetary accommodation

Indiarsquos demographic advantage ndash In contrast to developed Countries India will have a

younger population for the next 50 years Hence India would be the hub for RampD

Inflation

Inflation was contained to 63 per cent by end-March 2007 within the indicative

trajectory of 50-55 per cent during 2007-08 The actual inflation was considerably lower

than the indicative trajectory and this could be mainly attributed to the deferred pass-

through of even the cognisable permanent component of international crude oil prices

Money Supply

31

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Monetary and liquidity conditions remained largely comfortable during 2006-07reflecting

proactive liquidity management operations by the Reserve Bank under the liquidity

adjustment facility flexible management of issuances under the market stabilisation

scheme and some private placement of Government securities

In short the Indian economy is exhibiting strong fundamentals and displaying

considerable resilience At the same time there are continuing signs of demand pressures

especially high credit growth that could exert upward pressure on prices when associated

with supply shocks such as from oil These pressures have the potential for impacting

stability and inflation expectations While domestic developments continue to dominate

the economy global factors tend to gain more attention now than before The global

outlook for growth is positive but downside risks in regard to inflation also RBI is

applying new repo and reverse repo for the balance of inflation and monetary policies

The following are macroeconomic policies generally found as part of government-

directed industrial auto policies

(a) Restrictions on domestic and foreign investment

(b) Domestic content requirements

(c) High tariff walls

(d) Auto export requirements

(e) National production to sales ratios

(f) Distribution controls

(g) Quotas and licensing requirements that significantly restrict imports

(h) Government approval for product related decisions including vehicle make

body type engine size etc

(i) Special government categories for auto taxes

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry Today it is

amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output multiplier of

224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy) In recent

32

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

years we have seen increasing number of global players entering Indian market by way of

Joint ventures collaborations or wholly owned subsidiary

The automobile industry is torn between trying to reduce costs on the one hand and on

the other dealing with the high price of performance-enhancing technology and

environmental compliance Key drivers in the automotive industry are

Reducing air pollution

Reduction of weight

Recyclability

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

The automobile market is at the maturity stage of the life cycle locally and globally due

to an increased number of competitors from domestic and foreign markets The

automobile market is characterized by a low potential for market growth but high sales

and profit potential as the products have still not saturated the market as a whole

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

SWOT ANALYSIS

STRENGHS

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

78

ADVANCEDECLINE LINE The ldquoadvancedecline linerdquo shows for some period the cumulative difference between advancing and declining issues

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 sharesHI-LO-CLOSE CHART A hi-lo-close chart is a bar chart showing for each day the

POINT AND FIGURE CHARTS Point-and-figure charts are a way of showing only major price moves and their direction A ldquomajorrdquo up move is marked with an ldquoXrdquo while a ldquomajorrdquo down move is marked with an ldquoOrdquo A new column starts every time there is a change in direction

HEAD AND SHOULDERS FORMATION Once a chart is drawn technical analysts examine it for various formations or pattern types in an attempt to predict stock price or market direction in the case of head-and-shoulders formation

ODD-LOT The ldquoodd-lotrdquo indicator looks at whether odd-lot purchases are up or down

HEMLINE Followers of the ldquohemlinerdquo indicator claim that hemlines tend to rise in good times

SUPER BOWL The Super Bowl indicator forecasts the direction of the market based on whether the National Football Conference or the American Football Conference wins

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Foreign debt especially if it is very large can be a tremendous burden on an economy India pays around $ 5 billion a year in principal repayments and interest payments InflationInflation has an enormous effect in the economy Within the country it erodes purchasing power As a consequence demand falls If the rate of inflation in the country from which a company imports is high then the cost of production in that country will automatically go up

The Threat of NationalizationThe threat of nationalization is a real threat in many countries ndash the fear that a company may become nationalized

Interest RatesA low interest rate stimulates investment and industry Conversely high interest rates result in higher cost of production and lower consumption

TaxationThe level of taxation in a country has a direct effect on the economy If tax rates are low people have more disposable income

Government PolicyGovernment policy has a direct impact on the economy A government that is perceived to be proindustry will attract investment

THE ECONOMIC CYCLE

It affects investment decisions employment demand and the profitability of companiesThe four stages of an economic cycle are DepressionRecoveryBoom Recession DepressionAt the time of depression demand is low and falling Inflation is high and so are interest rates Companies crippled by high borrowing and falling sales are forced to curtail production close down plants built at times of higher demand and let workers go

RecoveryDuring this phase the economy begins to recover Investment begins anew and the demand grows Companies begin to post profits Conspicuous spending begins once again

Boom

20

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

In the boom phase demand reaches an all time high Investment is also high Interest rates are low Gradually as time goes on supply begins to exceed the demand Prices that had been rising begin to stabilize and even fall There is an increase in demand Then as the boom period matures prices begin to rise again

RecessionThe economy slowly begins to downturn Demand starts falling Interest rates and inflation are high Companies start finding it difficult to sell their goods The economy slowly begins to downturn

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

The importance of industry analysis is now dawning on the Indian investor as never before

CycleThe first step in industry is to determine the cycle it is in or the stage of maturity of the industry All industries evolve through the following stages1 Entrepreneurial sunrise or nascent stage2 Expansion or growth stage3 Stabilization stagnation or maturity stage and4 Decline or sunset stage to properly establish itself In the early days it may actually make losses

The Entrepreneurial or Nascent Stage

21

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

At the first stage the industry is new and it can take some time for it to properly establish itself

The Expansion or Growth StageOnce the industry has established itself it enters a growth stage As the industry grows many new companies enter the industry

The Stabilization or Maturity StageAfter the halcyon days of growth an industry matures and stabilizes Rewards are low and so too is the risk Growth is moderate Though sales may increase they do so at a slower rate than before Products are more standardized and less innovative and there are several competitors

The Decline or Sunset StageFinally the industry declines This occurs when its products are no longer popular This may be on account of several factors such as a change in social habits The film and video industries

1 BARRIER TO ENTRYNew entrants increase the capacity in an industry and the inflow of funds The question that arises is how easy is it to enter an industry There are some barriers to entry

a) Economies of scaleb) Product differentiation c) Capital requirementd) Switching costse) Access to distribution channelsf) Cost disadvantages independent of scaleg) Government policyh) Expected retaliationj) International cartels

2 THE THREAT OF SUBSTITUTIONNew inventions are always taking place and new and better products replace existing ones An industry that can be replaced by substitutes or is threatened by substitutes is normally an industry one must be careful of investing in An industry where this occurs constantly is the packaging industry -bottles replaced by cans cans replaced by plastic bottles and the like To ward off the threat of substitution companies often have to spend large sums of money in advertising and promotion

3 BARGAINING POWER OF THE BUYERSIn an industry where buyers have control ie in a buyers market buyers are constantly forcing prices down demanding better services or higher quality and this often erodes profitability The factors one should check are whether

22

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

a) A particular buyer buys most of the products (large purchase volumes) If such buyers withdraw their patronage they can destroy an industry They can also force prices downb) Buyers can play one company against another to bring prices down

4 BARGAINING POWER FOR THE SUPPLIERSAn industry unduly controlled by its suppliers is also under threat This occurs whena) The suppliers have a monopoly or if there are few suppliersb) Suppliers control an essential c) Demand for the product exceeds d) The supplier supplies to various industriese) The switching costs are highf) The suppliers product does not have a substituteg) The suppliers product is an important input for the buyersh) The buyer is not important to the supplieri) The suppliers product is unique

5 RIVALRY AMONG COMPETITORSRivalry among competitors can cause an industry great harm This occurs mainly by price cuts heavy advertising additional high cost services or offers and the like This rivalry occurs mainly whena) There are many competitors and supply exceeds demand Companies resort to price cuts and advertise heavily in order to attract customers for their goodsb) The industry growth is slow and companies are competing with each other for a greater market sharec) The economy is in a recession and companies cut the price of their products and offer better service to stimulate demandd) There is lack of differentiation between the product of one company and that of another In such cases the buyer makes his choice on the basis of price or servicee) In some industries economies of scale will necessitate large additions to existing capacities in a company The increase in production could result in over capacity amp price cuttingf) Competitors may have very different strategies in selling their goods and in competing they may be continuously trying to stay ahead

III COMPANY ANALYSIS

At the final stage of fundamental analysis the investor analyzes the company This analysis has two thrustsHow has the company performed vis-agrave-vis other similar companies and How has the company performed in comparison to earlier years It is imperative that one completes the politico economic analysis and the industry analysis before a company is analyzed because the companys performance at a period of time is to an extent a reflection of the economy the political situation and the industry What does one look at when analyzing a company The different issues regarding a company that should be examined are The Management

23

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The Company The Annual Report Ratios Cash flow

THE MANAGEMENT

The single most important factor one should consider when investing in a company and one often never considered is its management In India management can be broadlydivided in two types Family Management Professional Management

THE COMPANY

An aspect not necessarily examined during an analysis of fundamentals is the company A company may have made losses consecutively for two years or more and one may not wish to touch its shares - yet it may be a good company and worth purchasing into There are several factors one should look at

1 How a company is perceived by its competitorsOne of the key factors to ascertain is how a company is perceived by its competitors It is held in high regard Its management may be known for its maturity vision competence and aggressiveness The investor must ascertain the reason and then determine whetherthe reason will continue into the foreseeable future

2 Whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segmentAnother aspect that should be ascertained is whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segment When you invest in market leaders the risk is less Theshares of market leaders do not fall as quickly as those of other companies There is a magic to their name that would make individuals prefer to buy their products as opposed to others

3 Company PoliciesThe policy a company follows is also important What is its plans for growth What is its vision Every company has a life If it is allowed to live a normal life it will grow upto a point and then begin to level out and eventually die It is at the point of leveling out that it must be given new life This can give it renewed vigour and a new lease of life

4 Labour RelationsLabour relations are extremely important A company that has motivated industrious work force has high productivity and practically no disruption of work On the other hand a company that has bad industrial relations will lose several hundred mandays as a consequence of strikes and go slows

24

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

5 Where the company is located and where its factories are One must also consider where the companies Plants and Factories are located

THE ANNUAL REPORT

The primary and most important source of information about a company is its Annual Report By law this is prepared every year and distributed to the shareholders Annual Reports are usually very well presented A tremendous amount of data is given about the performance of a company over a period of time The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific partsA) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the Accounts

A The Directorrsquos ReportThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship 1 It enunciates the opinion of the directors on the state of the economy and the political situation vis-agrave-vis the company 2 Explains the performance and the financial results of the company in the period under review This is an extremely important part The results and operations of the various separate divisions are usually detailed and investors can determine the reasons for their good or bad performance3 The Directorrsquos Report details the companys plans for modernization expansion and diversification Without these a company will remain static and eventually decline4 Discusses the profit earned in the period under review and the dividend Recommended by the directors This paragraph should normally be read with some skepticism as the directors will always argue that the performance was satisfactory If adverse economic conditions are usually at fault 5 Elaborates on the directors views of the companys prospects in the future6 Discusses plans for new acquisition and investments An investor must intelligently evaluate the issues raised in a Directorrsquos Report Industry conditions and the managements knowledge of the business must be considered

B The Auditors ReportThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors Auditors are required to report whether the financial statements presented do in fact present a true and fair view of the state of the company Investors must remember that the auditors are their representatives and that they are required by law to point out if the financial statements are not true and fair

CFinancial Statements

25

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The published financial statements of a company in an Annual Report consist of its Balance Sheet as at the end of the accounting period detailing the financing condition of the company at that date and the Profit and Loss Account or Income Statement summarizing the activities of the company for the accounting period

BALANCE SHEETThe Balance Sheet details the financial position of a company on a particular date of the companys assets (that which the company owns) and liabilities (that which the companyowes) grouped logically under specific heads It must however be noted that the Balance Sheet details the financial position on a particular day and that the position can be materially different on the next day or the day after

PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNTThe Profit and Loss account summarizes the activities of a company during an accounting period which may be a month a quarter six months a year or longer and the result achieved by the company It details the income earned by the company its cost and the resulting profit or loss It is in effect the performance appraisal not only of the company but also of its management- its competence foresight and ability to lead

RATIOS

Ratios express mathematically the relationship between performance figures andor assetsliabilities in a form that can be easily understood and interpretedNo single ratio tells the complete storyRatios can be broken down into four broad categories

26

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(A) Profit and Loss RatiosThese show the relationship between two items or groups of items in a profit and loss account or income statement The more common of these ratios are1 Sales to cost of goods sold2 Selling expenses to sales3 Net profit to sales and4 Gross profit to sales

(B) Balance Sheet RatiosThese deal with the relationship in the balance sheet such as 1 Shareholders equity to borrowed funds2 Current assets to current liabilities3 Liabilities to net worth4 Debt to assets and5 Liabilities to assets

(C) Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Account RatiosThese relate an item on the balance sheet to another in the profit and loss account such as1 Earnings to shareholders funds2 Net income to assets employed3 Sales to stock4 Sales to debtors and5 Cost of goods sold to creditors

(D) Financial Statements and Market RatiosThese are normally known as market ratios and are arrived at by relative financial figures to market prices1 Market value to earnings and2 Book value to market value(a) Market value(b) Earnings(c) Profitability(d) Liquidity(e) Leverage(f) Debt Service Capacity(g) Asset ManagementEfficiency(h) Margins

The major ratios that are considered(i) Market value(ii) Price- earnings ratio(iii) Market-to-book ratio(iv) Earnings(v) Earning per share(vi) Dividend per share

27

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(vii) Dividend payout ratio(viii) Leverage ratios(ix) Return on investmentstotal assets

CASH FLOW A statement of sources and uses begins with the profit for the year to which are added the increases in liability accounts (sources) and from which are reduced the increases in asset accounts (uses) The net result shows whether there has been an excess or deficit of funds and how this was financed Investors must examine a companys cash flow as it reveals exactly where the money came from how it was utilized Investors must be concerned if a company is financing either its inventories or paying dividends from borrowings without real growth as that shows deterioration

2005-06 on the back of buoyant manufacturing and services activity supported by a

recovery in the agricultural sector Real GDP growth has thus averaged over eight per

cent during the last three years and over seven per cent in the first four years (2002-03 to

2005-06) of the Tenth Five Year Plan

Strengths of India today are

30

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A well diversified industrial base which profits from self-reliance in all core industries A

large amp sophisticated financial architecture - The robust capital Markets today have over

9000 listed companies and boast of a massive Market capitalization

A healthy GDP composition with agriculture contributing 22 Industry 22 and

services which have gone strength to strength accounting For 56 of the GDP an

acknowledged strength in knowledge driven industries like Information technology

biotechnology entertainment Software etc

India has Over 3 million scientific amp technical manpower Over 06 million SampT post

graduates Over 07 million graduate engineers Over 3500 doctorates in sciences every

year

Assuming trend growth in agriculture under normal monsoon conditions and barring

domestic or external shocks the Reserve Bank in its Annual Policy Statement for 2007-

08 (April 2007) placed real GDP growth for policy purposes in the range of 75-80 per

cent during 2007-08 Growth prospects are however subject to a number of downside

risks The risks emanating from the global economy are potential escalation and

volatility in international crude oil prices firming up of overall inflationary pressures and

expectations and a hardening of international interest rates along with the withdrawal of

monetary accommodation

Indiarsquos demographic advantage ndash In contrast to developed Countries India will have a

younger population for the next 50 years Hence India would be the hub for RampD

Inflation

Inflation was contained to 63 per cent by end-March 2007 within the indicative

trajectory of 50-55 per cent during 2007-08 The actual inflation was considerably lower

than the indicative trajectory and this could be mainly attributed to the deferred pass-

through of even the cognisable permanent component of international crude oil prices

Money Supply

31

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Monetary and liquidity conditions remained largely comfortable during 2006-07reflecting

proactive liquidity management operations by the Reserve Bank under the liquidity

adjustment facility flexible management of issuances under the market stabilisation

scheme and some private placement of Government securities

In short the Indian economy is exhibiting strong fundamentals and displaying

considerable resilience At the same time there are continuing signs of demand pressures

especially high credit growth that could exert upward pressure on prices when associated

with supply shocks such as from oil These pressures have the potential for impacting

stability and inflation expectations While domestic developments continue to dominate

the economy global factors tend to gain more attention now than before The global

outlook for growth is positive but downside risks in regard to inflation also RBI is

applying new repo and reverse repo for the balance of inflation and monetary policies

The following are macroeconomic policies generally found as part of government-

directed industrial auto policies

(a) Restrictions on domestic and foreign investment

(b) Domestic content requirements

(c) High tariff walls

(d) Auto export requirements

(e) National production to sales ratios

(f) Distribution controls

(g) Quotas and licensing requirements that significantly restrict imports

(h) Government approval for product related decisions including vehicle make

body type engine size etc

(i) Special government categories for auto taxes

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry Today it is

amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output multiplier of

224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy) In recent

32

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

years we have seen increasing number of global players entering Indian market by way of

Joint ventures collaborations or wholly owned subsidiary

The automobile industry is torn between trying to reduce costs on the one hand and on

the other dealing with the high price of performance-enhancing technology and

environmental compliance Key drivers in the automotive industry are

Reducing air pollution

Reduction of weight

Recyclability

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

The automobile market is at the maturity stage of the life cycle locally and globally due

to an increased number of competitors from domestic and foreign markets The

automobile market is characterized by a low potential for market growth but high sales

and profit potential as the products have still not saturated the market as a whole

Opportunities and Threats

a) Opportunities

Road Development The ongoing road development program would improve

connectivity to ports cities and villages through a network of highways and

interconnecting roads by 2010-11 Improved road network would help in faster

34

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

movement of goods between various cities and towns The Company launched TATA

Novus range of vehicles in the heavy segment and TATA ACE for last mile distribution

Car penetration in India Car penetration in India is 7 cars per 1000 persons

International In FY 2006-07 the Company increased share of its overseas vehicle sales

from 76 last year to record high of 111 (as of its total sales) and has planned

further increase in this year

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

PORTERrsquoS MODEL

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

CONCLUSION

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

In the boom phase demand reaches an all time high Investment is also high Interest rates are low Gradually as time goes on supply begins to exceed the demand Prices that had been rising begin to stabilize and even fall There is an increase in demand Then as the boom period matures prices begin to rise again

RecessionThe economy slowly begins to downturn Demand starts falling Interest rates and inflation are high Companies start finding it difficult to sell their goods The economy slowly begins to downturn

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

The importance of industry analysis is now dawning on the Indian investor as never before

CycleThe first step in industry is to determine the cycle it is in or the stage of maturity of the industry All industries evolve through the following stages1 Entrepreneurial sunrise or nascent stage2 Expansion or growth stage3 Stabilization stagnation or maturity stage and4 Decline or sunset stage to properly establish itself In the early days it may actually make losses

The Entrepreneurial or Nascent Stage

21

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

At the first stage the industry is new and it can take some time for it to properly establish itself

The Expansion or Growth StageOnce the industry has established itself it enters a growth stage As the industry grows many new companies enter the industry

The Stabilization or Maturity StageAfter the halcyon days of growth an industry matures and stabilizes Rewards are low and so too is the risk Growth is moderate Though sales may increase they do so at a slower rate than before Products are more standardized and less innovative and there are several competitors

The Decline or Sunset StageFinally the industry declines This occurs when its products are no longer popular This may be on account of several factors such as a change in social habits The film and video industries

1 BARRIER TO ENTRYNew entrants increase the capacity in an industry and the inflow of funds The question that arises is how easy is it to enter an industry There are some barriers to entry

a) Economies of scaleb) Product differentiation c) Capital requirementd) Switching costse) Access to distribution channelsf) Cost disadvantages independent of scaleg) Government policyh) Expected retaliationj) International cartels

2 THE THREAT OF SUBSTITUTIONNew inventions are always taking place and new and better products replace existing ones An industry that can be replaced by substitutes or is threatened by substitutes is normally an industry one must be careful of investing in An industry where this occurs constantly is the packaging industry -bottles replaced by cans cans replaced by plastic bottles and the like To ward off the threat of substitution companies often have to spend large sums of money in advertising and promotion

3 BARGAINING POWER OF THE BUYERSIn an industry where buyers have control ie in a buyers market buyers are constantly forcing prices down demanding better services or higher quality and this often erodes profitability The factors one should check are whether

22

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

a) A particular buyer buys most of the products (large purchase volumes) If such buyers withdraw their patronage they can destroy an industry They can also force prices downb) Buyers can play one company against another to bring prices down

4 BARGAINING POWER FOR THE SUPPLIERSAn industry unduly controlled by its suppliers is also under threat This occurs whena) The suppliers have a monopoly or if there are few suppliersb) Suppliers control an essential c) Demand for the product exceeds d) The supplier supplies to various industriese) The switching costs are highf) The suppliers product does not have a substituteg) The suppliers product is an important input for the buyersh) The buyer is not important to the supplieri) The suppliers product is unique

5 RIVALRY AMONG COMPETITORSRivalry among competitors can cause an industry great harm This occurs mainly by price cuts heavy advertising additional high cost services or offers and the like This rivalry occurs mainly whena) There are many competitors and supply exceeds demand Companies resort to price cuts and advertise heavily in order to attract customers for their goodsb) The industry growth is slow and companies are competing with each other for a greater market sharec) The economy is in a recession and companies cut the price of their products and offer better service to stimulate demandd) There is lack of differentiation between the product of one company and that of another In such cases the buyer makes his choice on the basis of price or servicee) In some industries economies of scale will necessitate large additions to existing capacities in a company The increase in production could result in over capacity amp price cuttingf) Competitors may have very different strategies in selling their goods and in competing they may be continuously trying to stay ahead

III COMPANY ANALYSIS

At the final stage of fundamental analysis the investor analyzes the company This analysis has two thrustsHow has the company performed vis-agrave-vis other similar companies and How has the company performed in comparison to earlier years It is imperative that one completes the politico economic analysis and the industry analysis before a company is analyzed because the companys performance at a period of time is to an extent a reflection of the economy the political situation and the industry What does one look at when analyzing a company The different issues regarding a company that should be examined are The Management

23

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The Company The Annual Report Ratios Cash flow

THE MANAGEMENT

The single most important factor one should consider when investing in a company and one often never considered is its management In India management can be broadlydivided in two types Family Management Professional Management

THE COMPANY

An aspect not necessarily examined during an analysis of fundamentals is the company A company may have made losses consecutively for two years or more and one may not wish to touch its shares - yet it may be a good company and worth purchasing into There are several factors one should look at

1 How a company is perceived by its competitorsOne of the key factors to ascertain is how a company is perceived by its competitors It is held in high regard Its management may be known for its maturity vision competence and aggressiveness The investor must ascertain the reason and then determine whetherthe reason will continue into the foreseeable future

2 Whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segmentAnother aspect that should be ascertained is whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segment When you invest in market leaders the risk is less Theshares of market leaders do not fall as quickly as those of other companies There is a magic to their name that would make individuals prefer to buy their products as opposed to others

3 Company PoliciesThe policy a company follows is also important What is its plans for growth What is its vision Every company has a life If it is allowed to live a normal life it will grow upto a point and then begin to level out and eventually die It is at the point of leveling out that it must be given new life This can give it renewed vigour and a new lease of life

4 Labour RelationsLabour relations are extremely important A company that has motivated industrious work force has high productivity and practically no disruption of work On the other hand a company that has bad industrial relations will lose several hundred mandays as a consequence of strikes and go slows

5 Where the company is located and where its factories are One must also consider where the companies Plants and Factories are located

THE ANNUAL REPORT

CFinancial Statements

25

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The published financial statements of a company in an Annual Report consist of its Balance Sheet as at the end of the accounting period detailing the financing condition of the company at that date and the Profit and Loss Account or Income Statement summarizing the activities of the company for the accounting period

BALANCE SHEETThe Balance Sheet details the financial position of a company on a particular date of the companys assets (that which the company owns) and liabilities (that which the companyowes) grouped logically under specific heads It must however be noted that the Balance Sheet details the financial position on a particular day and that the position can be materially different on the next day or the day after

PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNTThe Profit and Loss account summarizes the activities of a company during an accounting period which may be a month a quarter six months a year or longer and the result achieved by the company It details the income earned by the company its cost and the resulting profit or loss It is in effect the performance appraisal not only of the company but also of its management- its competence foresight and ability to lead

RATIOS

Ratios express mathematically the relationship between performance figures andor assetsliabilities in a form that can be easily understood and interpretedNo single ratio tells the complete storyRatios can be broken down into four broad categories

26

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(A) Profit and Loss RatiosThese show the relationship between two items or groups of items in a profit and loss account or income statement The more common of these ratios are1 Sales to cost of goods sold2 Selling expenses to sales3 Net profit to sales and4 Gross profit to sales

(B) Balance Sheet RatiosThese deal with the relationship in the balance sheet such as 1 Shareholders equity to borrowed funds2 Current assets to current liabilities3 Liabilities to net worth4 Debt to assets and5 Liabilities to assets

(C) Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Account RatiosThese relate an item on the balance sheet to another in the profit and loss account such as1 Earnings to shareholders funds2 Net income to assets employed3 Sales to stock4 Sales to debtors and5 Cost of goods sold to creditors

(D) Financial Statements and Market RatiosThese are normally known as market ratios and are arrived at by relative financial figures to market prices1 Market value to earnings and2 Book value to market value(a) Market value(b) Earnings(c) Profitability(d) Liquidity(e) Leverage(f) Debt Service Capacity(g) Asset ManagementEfficiency(h) Margins

CASH FLOW A statement of sources and uses begins with the profit for the year to which are added the increases in liability accounts (sources) and from which are reduced the increases in asset accounts (uses) The net result shows whether there has been an excess or deficit of funds and how this was financed Investors must examine a companys cash flow as it reveals exactly where the money came from how it was utilized Investors must be concerned if a company is financing either its inventories or paying dividends from borrowings without real growth as that shows deterioration

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

I FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF STOCKS

Basically fundamental analysis is covered in 3 parts

1 Market economy analysis

2 Industry Analysis

3 Company Analysis

1) TATA MOTORS

I Market Economy Analysis

It covers the macro economy analysis and the various macro economic factors on the national level like GDP Monetary policies of India Fiscal Policies and Inflation and money supply etc

GDP

Real GDP growth accelerated from 75 per cent during 2004-05 to 84 per cent during

2005-06 on the back of buoyant manufacturing and services activity supported by a

recovery in the agricultural sector Real GDP growth has thus averaged over eight per

cent during the last three years and over seven per cent in the first four years (2002-03 to

2005-06) of the Tenth Five Year Plan

Strengths of India today are

30

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A well diversified industrial base which profits from self-reliance in all core industries A

large amp sophisticated financial architecture - The robust capital Markets today have over

9000 listed companies and boast of a massive Market capitalization

A healthy GDP composition with agriculture contributing 22 Industry 22 and

services which have gone strength to strength accounting For 56 of the GDP an

acknowledged strength in knowledge driven industries like Information technology

biotechnology entertainment Software etc

India has Over 3 million scientific amp technical manpower Over 06 million SampT post

graduates Over 07 million graduate engineers Over 3500 doctorates in sciences every

year

Assuming trend growth in agriculture under normal monsoon conditions and barring

domestic or external shocks the Reserve Bank in its Annual Policy Statement for 2007-

08 (April 2007) placed real GDP growth for policy purposes in the range of 75-80 per

cent during 2007-08 Growth prospects are however subject to a number of downside

risks The risks emanating from the global economy are potential escalation and

volatility in international crude oil prices firming up of overall inflationary pressures and

expectations and a hardening of international interest rates along with the withdrawal of

monetary accommodation

Indiarsquos demographic advantage ndash In contrast to developed Countries India will have a

younger population for the next 50 years Hence India would be the hub for RampD

Inflation

Inflation was contained to 63 per cent by end-March 2007 within the indicative

trajectory of 50-55 per cent during 2007-08 The actual inflation was considerably lower

than the indicative trajectory and this could be mainly attributed to the deferred pass-

through of even the cognisable permanent component of international crude oil prices

Money Supply

31

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Monetary and liquidity conditions remained largely comfortable during 2006-07reflecting

proactive liquidity management operations by the Reserve Bank under the liquidity

adjustment facility flexible management of issuances under the market stabilisation

scheme and some private placement of Government securities

In short the Indian economy is exhibiting strong fundamentals and displaying

considerable resilience At the same time there are continuing signs of demand pressures

especially high credit growth that could exert upward pressure on prices when associated

with supply shocks such as from oil These pressures have the potential for impacting

stability and inflation expectations While domestic developments continue to dominate

the economy global factors tend to gain more attention now than before The global

outlook for growth is positive but downside risks in regard to inflation also RBI is

applying new repo and reverse repo for the balance of inflation and monetary policies

The following are macroeconomic policies generally found as part of government-

directed industrial auto policies

(a) Restrictions on domestic and foreign investment

(b) Domestic content requirements

(c) High tariff walls

(d) Auto export requirements

(e) National production to sales ratios

(f) Distribution controls

(g) Quotas and licensing requirements that significantly restrict imports

(h) Government approval for product related decisions including vehicle make

body type engine size etc

(i) Special government categories for auto taxes

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry Today it is

amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output multiplier of

224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy) In recent

32

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

years we have seen increasing number of global players entering Indian market by way of

Joint ventures collaborations or wholly owned subsidiary

The automobile industry is torn between trying to reduce costs on the one hand and on

the other dealing with the high price of performance-enhancing technology and

environmental compliance Key drivers in the automotive industry are

Reducing air pollution

Reduction of weight

Recyclability

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

The automobile market is at the maturity stage of the life cycle locally and globally due

to an increased number of competitors from domestic and foreign markets The

automobile market is characterized by a low potential for market growth but high sales

and profit potential as the products have still not saturated the market as a whole

Opportunities and Threats

a) Opportunities

Road Development The ongoing road development program would improve

connectivity to ports cities and villages through a network of highways and

interconnecting roads by 2010-11 Improved road network would help in faster

34

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

movement of goods between various cities and towns The Company launched TATA

Novus range of vehicles in the heavy segment and TATA ACE for last mile distribution

Car penetration in India Car penetration in India is 7 cars per 1000 persons

International In FY 2006-07 the Company increased share of its overseas vehicle sales

from 76 last year to record high of 111 (as of its total sales) and has planned

further increase in this year

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

PORTERrsquoS MODEL

43

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

SWOT ANALYSIS

STRENGHS

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

COMPANY ANALYSIS

The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific parts

A) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the AccountsATHE DIRECTORrsquoS REPORTThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship Fundamental AnalysisB THE AUDITORS REPORTThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

CONCLUSION

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

78

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

ADVANCEDECLINE LINE The ldquoadvancedecline linerdquo shows for some period the cumulative difference between advancing and declining issues

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 sharesHI-LO-CLOSE CHART A hi-lo-close chart is a bar chart showing for each day the

high price low price and closing price

CANDESTICK CHART A candlestick chart is an extended version of the hi-lo-close chart It plots the high low open and closing prices and also shows whether the closing price was above or below the opening price

POINT AND FIGURE CHARTS Point-and-figure charts are a way of showing only major price moves and their direction A ldquomajorrdquo up move is marked with an ldquoXrdquo while a ldquomajorrdquo down move is marked with an ldquoOrdquo A new column starts every time there is a change in direction

HEAD AND SHOULDERS FORMATION Once a chart is drawn technical analysts examine it for various formations or pattern types in an attempt to predict stock price or market direction in the case of head-and-shoulders formation

ODD-LOT The ldquoodd-lotrdquo indicator looks at whether odd-lot purchases are up or down

HEMLINE Followers of the ldquohemlinerdquo indicator claim that hemlines tend to rise in good times

SUPER BOWL The Super Bowl indicator forecasts the direction of the market based on whether the National Football Conference or the American Football Conference wins

BETA Beta is a risk measure comparing the volatility of a stocks price movement to the general market

MOMENTUM Momentum measures the speed of price change and provides a leading indicator of changes in trend

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

At the first stage the industry is new and it can take some time for it to properly establish itself

The Expansion or Growth StageOnce the industry has established itself it enters a growth stage As the industry grows many new companies enter the industry

The Stabilization or Maturity StageAfter the halcyon days of growth an industry matures and stabilizes Rewards are low and so too is the risk Growth is moderate Though sales may increase they do so at a slower rate than before Products are more standardized and less innovative and there are several competitors

The Decline or Sunset StageFinally the industry declines This occurs when its products are no longer popular This may be on account of several factors such as a change in social habits The film and video industries

1 BARRIER TO ENTRYNew entrants increase the capacity in an industry and the inflow of funds The question that arises is how easy is it to enter an industry There are some barriers to entry

a) Economies of scaleb) Product differentiation c) Capital requirementd) Switching costse) Access to distribution channelsf) Cost disadvantages independent of scaleg) Government policyh) Expected retaliationj) International cartels

2 THE THREAT OF SUBSTITUTIONNew inventions are always taking place and new and better products replace existing ones An industry that can be replaced by substitutes or is threatened by substitutes is normally an industry one must be careful of investing in An industry where this occurs constantly is the packaging industry -bottles replaced by cans cans replaced by plastic bottles and the like To ward off the threat of substitution companies often have to spend large sums of money in advertising and promotion

3 BARGAINING POWER OF THE BUYERSIn an industry where buyers have control ie in a buyers market buyers are constantly forcing prices down demanding better services or higher quality and this often erodes profitability The factors one should check are whether

22

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

a) A particular buyer buys most of the products (large purchase volumes) If such buyers withdraw their patronage they can destroy an industry They can also force prices downb) Buyers can play one company against another to bring prices down

4 BARGAINING POWER FOR THE SUPPLIERSAn industry unduly controlled by its suppliers is also under threat This occurs whena) The suppliers have a monopoly or if there are few suppliersb) Suppliers control an essential c) Demand for the product exceeds d) The supplier supplies to various industriese) The switching costs are highf) The suppliers product does not have a substituteg) The suppliers product is an important input for the buyersh) The buyer is not important to the supplieri) The suppliers product is unique

5 RIVALRY AMONG COMPETITORSRivalry among competitors can cause an industry great harm This occurs mainly by price cuts heavy advertising additional high cost services or offers and the like This rivalry occurs mainly whena) There are many competitors and supply exceeds demand Companies resort to price cuts and advertise heavily in order to attract customers for their goodsb) The industry growth is slow and companies are competing with each other for a greater market sharec) The economy is in a recession and companies cut the price of their products and offer better service to stimulate demandd) There is lack of differentiation between the product of one company and that of another In such cases the buyer makes his choice on the basis of price or servicee) In some industries economies of scale will necessitate large additions to existing capacities in a company The increase in production could result in over capacity amp price cuttingf) Competitors may have very different strategies in selling their goods and in competing they may be continuously trying to stay ahead

III COMPANY ANALYSIS

At the final stage of fundamental analysis the investor analyzes the company This analysis has two thrustsHow has the company performed vis-agrave-vis other similar companies and How has the company performed in comparison to earlier years It is imperative that one completes the politico economic analysis and the industry analysis before a company is analyzed because the companys performance at a period of time is to an extent a reflection of the economy the political situation and the industry What does one look at when analyzing a company The different issues regarding a company that should be examined are The Management

23

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The Company The Annual Report Ratios Cash flow

THE MANAGEMENT

The single most important factor one should consider when investing in a company and one often never considered is its management In India management can be broadlydivided in two types Family Management Professional Management

THE COMPANY

An aspect not necessarily examined during an analysis of fundamentals is the company A company may have made losses consecutively for two years or more and one may not wish to touch its shares - yet it may be a good company and worth purchasing into There are several factors one should look at

1 How a company is perceived by its competitorsOne of the key factors to ascertain is how a company is perceived by its competitors It is held in high regard Its management may be known for its maturity vision competence and aggressiveness The investor must ascertain the reason and then determine whetherthe reason will continue into the foreseeable future

2 Whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segmentAnother aspect that should be ascertained is whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segment When you invest in market leaders the risk is less Theshares of market leaders do not fall as quickly as those of other companies There is a magic to their name that would make individuals prefer to buy their products as opposed to others

3 Company PoliciesThe policy a company follows is also important What is its plans for growth What is its vision Every company has a life If it is allowed to live a normal life it will grow upto a point and then begin to level out and eventually die It is at the point of leveling out that it must be given new life This can give it renewed vigour and a new lease of life

4 Labour RelationsLabour relations are extremely important A company that has motivated industrious work force has high productivity and practically no disruption of work On the other hand a company that has bad industrial relations will lose several hundred mandays as a consequence of strikes and go slows

24

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

5 Where the company is located and where its factories are One must also consider where the companies Plants and Factories are located

THE ANNUAL REPORT

The primary and most important source of information about a company is its Annual Report By law this is prepared every year and distributed to the shareholders Annual Reports are usually very well presented A tremendous amount of data is given about the performance of a company over a period of time The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific partsA) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the Accounts

A The Directorrsquos ReportThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship 1 It enunciates the opinion of the directors on the state of the economy and the political situation vis-agrave-vis the company 2 Explains the performance and the financial results of the company in the period under review This is an extremely important part The results and operations of the various separate divisions are usually detailed and investors can determine the reasons for their good or bad performance3 The Directorrsquos Report details the companys plans for modernization expansion and diversification Without these a company will remain static and eventually decline4 Discusses the profit earned in the period under review and the dividend Recommended by the directors This paragraph should normally be read with some skepticism as the directors will always argue that the performance was satisfactory If adverse economic conditions are usually at fault 5 Elaborates on the directors views of the companys prospects in the future6 Discusses plans for new acquisition and investments An investor must intelligently evaluate the issues raised in a Directorrsquos Report Industry conditions and the managements knowledge of the business must be considered

B The Auditors ReportThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors Auditors are required to report whether the financial statements presented do in fact present a true and fair view of the state of the company Investors must remember that the auditors are their representatives and that they are required by law to point out if the financial statements are not true and fair

CFinancial Statements

25

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The published financial statements of a company in an Annual Report consist of its Balance Sheet as at the end of the accounting period detailing the financing condition of the company at that date and the Profit and Loss Account or Income Statement summarizing the activities of the company for the accounting period

BALANCE SHEETThe Balance Sheet details the financial position of a company on a particular date of the companys assets (that which the company owns) and liabilities (that which the companyowes) grouped logically under specific heads It must however be noted that the Balance Sheet details the financial position on a particular day and that the position can be materially different on the next day or the day after

PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNTThe Profit and Loss account summarizes the activities of a company during an accounting period which may be a month a quarter six months a year or longer and the result achieved by the company It details the income earned by the company its cost and the resulting profit or loss It is in effect the performance appraisal not only of the company but also of its management- its competence foresight and ability to lead

RATIOS

Ratios express mathematically the relationship between performance figures andor assetsliabilities in a form that can be easily understood and interpretedNo single ratio tells the complete storyRatios can be broken down into four broad categories

26

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(A) Profit and Loss RatiosThese show the relationship between two items or groups of items in a profit and loss account or income statement The more common of these ratios are1 Sales to cost of goods sold2 Selling expenses to sales3 Net profit to sales and4 Gross profit to sales

(B) Balance Sheet RatiosThese deal with the relationship in the balance sheet such as 1 Shareholders equity to borrowed funds2 Current assets to current liabilities3 Liabilities to net worth4 Debt to assets and5 Liabilities to assets

(C) Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Account RatiosThese relate an item on the balance sheet to another in the profit and loss account such as1 Earnings to shareholders funds2 Net income to assets employed3 Sales to stock4 Sales to debtors and5 Cost of goods sold to creditors

(D) Financial Statements and Market RatiosThese are normally known as market ratios and are arrived at by relative financial figures to market prices1 Market value to earnings and2 Book value to market value(a) Market value(b) Earnings(c) Profitability(d) Liquidity(e) Leverage(f) Debt Service Capacity(g) Asset ManagementEfficiency(h) Margins

The major ratios that are considered(i) Market value(ii) Price- earnings ratio(iii) Market-to-book ratio(iv) Earnings(v) Earning per share(vi) Dividend per share

27

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(vii) Dividend payout ratio(viii) Leverage ratios(ix) Return on investmentstotal assets

CASH FLOW A statement of sources and uses begins with the profit for the year to which are added the increases in liability accounts (sources) and from which are reduced the increases in asset accounts (uses) The net result shows whether there has been an excess or deficit of funds and how this was financed Investors must examine a companys cash flow as it reveals exactly where the money came from how it was utilized Investors must be concerned if a company is financing either its inventories or paying dividends from borrowings without real growth as that shows deterioration

CHAPTER-4 ANALYSIS

29

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

I FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF STOCKS

Basically fundamental analysis is covered in 3 parts

1 Market economy analysis

2 Industry Analysis

3 Company Analysis

1) TATA MOTORS

I Market Economy Analysis

It covers the macro economy analysis and the various macro economic factors on the national level like GDP Monetary policies of India Fiscal Policies and Inflation and money supply etc

GDP

Real GDP growth accelerated from 75 per cent during 2004-05 to 84 per cent during

2005-06 on the back of buoyant manufacturing and services activity supported by a

recovery in the agricultural sector Real GDP growth has thus averaged over eight per

cent during the last three years and over seven per cent in the first four years (2002-03 to

2005-06) of the Tenth Five Year Plan

Strengths of India today are

30

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A well diversified industrial base which profits from self-reliance in all core industries A

large amp sophisticated financial architecture - The robust capital Markets today have over

9000 listed companies and boast of a massive Market capitalization

A healthy GDP composition with agriculture contributing 22 Industry 22 and

services which have gone strength to strength accounting For 56 of the GDP an

acknowledged strength in knowledge driven industries like Information technology

biotechnology entertainment Software etc

India has Over 3 million scientific amp technical manpower Over 06 million SampT post

graduates Over 07 million graduate engineers Over 3500 doctorates in sciences every

year

Assuming trend growth in agriculture under normal monsoon conditions and barring

domestic or external shocks the Reserve Bank in its Annual Policy Statement for 2007-

08 (April 2007) placed real GDP growth for policy purposes in the range of 75-80 per

cent during 2007-08 Growth prospects are however subject to a number of downside

risks The risks emanating from the global economy are potential escalation and

volatility in international crude oil prices firming up of overall inflationary pressures and

expectations and a hardening of international interest rates along with the withdrawal of

monetary accommodation

Indiarsquos demographic advantage ndash In contrast to developed Countries India will have a

younger population for the next 50 years Hence India would be the hub for RampD

Inflation

Inflation was contained to 63 per cent by end-March 2007 within the indicative

trajectory of 50-55 per cent during 2007-08 The actual inflation was considerably lower

than the indicative trajectory and this could be mainly attributed to the deferred pass-

through of even the cognisable permanent component of international crude oil prices

Money Supply

31

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Monetary and liquidity conditions remained largely comfortable during 2006-07reflecting

proactive liquidity management operations by the Reserve Bank under the liquidity

adjustment facility flexible management of issuances under the market stabilisation

scheme and some private placement of Government securities

In short the Indian economy is exhibiting strong fundamentals and displaying

considerable resilience At the same time there are continuing signs of demand pressures

especially high credit growth that could exert upward pressure on prices when associated

with supply shocks such as from oil These pressures have the potential for impacting

stability and inflation expectations While domestic developments continue to dominate

the economy global factors tend to gain more attention now than before The global

outlook for growth is positive but downside risks in regard to inflation also RBI is

applying new repo and reverse repo for the balance of inflation and monetary policies

The following are macroeconomic policies generally found as part of government-

directed industrial auto policies

(a) Restrictions on domestic and foreign investment

(b) Domestic content requirements

(c) High tariff walls

(d) Auto export requirements

(e) National production to sales ratios

(f) Distribution controls

(g) Quotas and licensing requirements that significantly restrict imports

(h) Government approval for product related decisions including vehicle make

body type engine size etc

(i) Special government categories for auto taxes

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry Today it is

amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output multiplier of

224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy) In recent

32

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

years we have seen increasing number of global players entering Indian market by way of

Joint ventures collaborations or wholly owned subsidiary

The automobile industry is torn between trying to reduce costs on the one hand and on

the other dealing with the high price of performance-enhancing technology and

environmental compliance Key drivers in the automotive industry are

Reducing air pollution

Reduction of weight

Recyclability

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

The automobile market is at the maturity stage of the life cycle locally and globally due

to an increased number of competitors from domestic and foreign markets The

automobile market is characterized by a low potential for market growth but high sales

and profit potential as the products have still not saturated the market as a whole

Opportunities and Threats

a) Opportunities

Road Development The ongoing road development program would improve

connectivity to ports cities and villages through a network of highways and

interconnecting roads by 2010-11 Improved road network would help in faster

34

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

movement of goods between various cities and towns The Company launched TATA

Novus range of vehicles in the heavy segment and TATA ACE for last mile distribution

Car penetration in India Car penetration in India is 7 cars per 1000 persons

International In FY 2006-07 the Company increased share of its overseas vehicle sales

from 76 last year to record high of 111 (as of its total sales) and has planned

further increase in this year

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

PORTERrsquoS MODEL

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

COMPANY ANALYSIS

The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific parts

A) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the AccountsATHE DIRECTORrsquoS REPORTThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship Fundamental AnalysisB THE AUDITORS REPORTThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors

C FINANCIAL STATEMENTSIt comprises of Balance Sheet Profit and Loss account Cash Flows Its analysis would be discussed later

DSCHEDULESThe schedules detail pertinent information about the items of Balance Sheet and Profit amp Loss Account It also details information about sales manufacturing costs administration costs interest and other income and expenses

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

78

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

a) A particular buyer buys most of the products (large purchase volumes) If such buyers withdraw their patronage they can destroy an industry They can also force prices downb) Buyers can play one company against another to bring prices down

4 BARGAINING POWER FOR THE SUPPLIERSAn industry unduly controlled by its suppliers is also under threat This occurs whena) The suppliers have a monopoly or if there are few suppliersb) Suppliers control an essential c) Demand for the product exceeds d) The supplier supplies to various industriese) The switching costs are highf) The suppliers product does not have a substituteg) The suppliers product is an important input for the buyersh) The buyer is not important to the supplieri) The suppliers product is unique

5 RIVALRY AMONG COMPETITORSRivalry among competitors can cause an industry great harm This occurs mainly by price cuts heavy advertising additional high cost services or offers and the like This rivalry occurs mainly whena) There are many competitors and supply exceeds demand Companies resort to price cuts and advertise heavily in order to attract customers for their goodsb) The industry growth is slow and companies are competing with each other for a greater market sharec) The economy is in a recession and companies cut the price of their products and offer better service to stimulate demandd) There is lack of differentiation between the product of one company and that of another In such cases the buyer makes his choice on the basis of price or servicee) In some industries economies of scale will necessitate large additions to existing capacities in a company The increase in production could result in over capacity amp price cuttingf) Competitors may have very different strategies in selling their goods and in competing they may be continuously trying to stay ahead

III COMPANY ANALYSIS

At the final stage of fundamental analysis the investor analyzes the company This analysis has two thrustsHow has the company performed vis-agrave-vis other similar companies and How has the company performed in comparison to earlier years It is imperative that one completes the politico economic analysis and the industry analysis before a company is analyzed because the companys performance at a period of time is to an extent a reflection of the economy the political situation and the industry What does one look at when analyzing a company The different issues regarding a company that should be examined are The Management

The Company The Annual Report Ratios Cash flow

THE MANAGEMENT

The single most important factor one should consider when investing in a company and one often never considered is its management In India management can be broadlydivided in two types Family Management Professional Management

THE COMPANY

An aspect not necessarily examined during an analysis of fundamentals is the company A company may have made losses consecutively for two years or more and one may not wish to touch its shares - yet it may be a good company and worth purchasing into There are several factors one should look at

1 How a company is perceived by its competitorsOne of the key factors to ascertain is how a company is perceived by its competitors It is held in high regard Its management may be known for its maturity vision competence and aggressiveness The investor must ascertain the reason and then determine whetherthe reason will continue into the foreseeable future

2 Whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segmentAnother aspect that should be ascertained is whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segment When you invest in market leaders the risk is less Theshares of market leaders do not fall as quickly as those of other companies There is a magic to their name that would make individuals prefer to buy their products as opposed to others

3 Company PoliciesThe policy a company follows is also important What is its plans for growth What is its vision Every company has a life If it is allowed to live a normal life it will grow upto a point and then begin to level out and eventually die It is at the point of leveling out that it must be given new life This can give it renewed vigour and a new lease of life

4 Labour RelationsLabour relations are extremely important A company that has motivated industrious work force has high productivity and practically no disruption of work On the other hand a company that has bad industrial relations will lose several hundred mandays as a consequence of strikes and go slows

24

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

5 Where the company is located and where its factories are One must also consider where the companies Plants and Factories are located

THE ANNUAL REPORT

The primary and most important source of information about a company is its Annual Report By law this is prepared every year and distributed to the shareholders Annual Reports are usually very well presented A tremendous amount of data is given about the performance of a company over a period of time The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific partsA) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the Accounts

A The Directorrsquos ReportThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship 1 It enunciates the opinion of the directors on the state of the economy and the political situation vis-agrave-vis the company 2 Explains the performance and the financial results of the company in the period under review This is an extremely important part The results and operations of the various separate divisions are usually detailed and investors can determine the reasons for their good or bad performance3 The Directorrsquos Report details the companys plans for modernization expansion and diversification Without these a company will remain static and eventually decline4 Discusses the profit earned in the period under review and the dividend Recommended by the directors This paragraph should normally be read with some skepticism as the directors will always argue that the performance was satisfactory If adverse economic conditions are usually at fault 5 Elaborates on the directors views of the companys prospects in the future6 Discusses plans for new acquisition and investments An investor must intelligently evaluate the issues raised in a Directorrsquos Report Industry conditions and the managements knowledge of the business must be considered

B The Auditors ReportThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors Auditors are required to report whether the financial statements presented do in fact present a true and fair view of the state of the company Investors must remember that the auditors are their representatives and that they are required by law to point out if the financial statements are not true and fair

CFinancial Statements

25

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The published financial statements of a company in an Annual Report consist of its Balance Sheet as at the end of the accounting period detailing the financing condition of the company at that date and the Profit and Loss Account or Income Statement summarizing the activities of the company for the accounting period

BALANCE SHEETThe Balance Sheet details the financial position of a company on a particular date of the companys assets (that which the company owns) and liabilities (that which the companyowes) grouped logically under specific heads It must however be noted that the Balance Sheet details the financial position on a particular day and that the position can be materially different on the next day or the day after

PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNTThe Profit and Loss account summarizes the activities of a company during an accounting period which may be a month a quarter six months a year or longer and the result achieved by the company It details the income earned by the company its cost and the resulting profit or loss It is in effect the performance appraisal not only of the company but also of its management- its competence foresight and ability to lead

RATIOS

Ratios express mathematically the relationship between performance figures andor assetsliabilities in a form that can be easily understood and interpretedNo single ratio tells the complete storyRatios can be broken down into four broad categories

26

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(A) Profit and Loss RatiosThese show the relationship between two items or groups of items in a profit and loss account or income statement The more common of these ratios are1 Sales to cost of goods sold2 Selling expenses to sales3 Net profit to sales and4 Gross profit to sales

(B) Balance Sheet RatiosThese deal with the relationship in the balance sheet such as 1 Shareholders equity to borrowed funds2 Current assets to current liabilities3 Liabilities to net worth4 Debt to assets and5 Liabilities to assets

(C) Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Account RatiosThese relate an item on the balance sheet to another in the profit and loss account such as1 Earnings to shareholders funds2 Net income to assets employed3 Sales to stock4 Sales to debtors and5 Cost of goods sold to creditors

(D) Financial Statements and Market RatiosThese are normally known as market ratios and are arrived at by relative financial figures to market prices1 Market value to earnings and2 Book value to market value(a) Market value(b) Earnings(c) Profitability(d) Liquidity(e) Leverage(f) Debt Service Capacity(g) Asset ManagementEfficiency(h) Margins

The major ratios that are considered(i) Market value(ii) Price- earnings ratio(iii) Market-to-book ratio(iv) Earnings(v) Earning per share(vi) Dividend per share

27

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(vii) Dividend payout ratio(viii) Leverage ratios(ix) Return on investmentstotal assets

CASH FLOW A statement of sources and uses begins with the profit for the year to which are added the increases in liability accounts (sources) and from which are reduced the increases in asset accounts (uses) The net result shows whether there has been an excess or deficit of funds and how this was financed Investors must examine a companys cash flow as it reveals exactly where the money came from how it was utilized Investors must be concerned if a company is financing either its inventories or paying dividends from borrowings without real growth as that shows deterioration

CHAPTER-4 ANALYSIS

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

I FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF STOCKS

Basically fundamental analysis is covered in 3 parts

1 Market economy analysis

2 Industry Analysis

3 Company Analysis

1) TATA MOTORS

I Market Economy Analysis

It covers the macro economy analysis and the various macro economic factors on the national level like GDP Monetary policies of India Fiscal Policies and Inflation and money supply etc

GDP

Real GDP growth accelerated from 75 per cent during 2004-05 to 84 per cent during

2005-06 on the back of buoyant manufacturing and services activity supported by a

recovery in the agricultural sector Real GDP growth has thus averaged over eight per

cent during the last three years and over seven per cent in the first four years (2002-03 to

2005-06) of the Tenth Five Year Plan

Strengths of India today are

30

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A well diversified industrial base which profits from self-reliance in all core industries A

large amp sophisticated financial architecture - The robust capital Markets today have over

9000 listed companies and boast of a massive Market capitalization

A healthy GDP composition with agriculture contributing 22 Industry 22 and

services which have gone strength to strength accounting For 56 of the GDP an

acknowledged strength in knowledge driven industries like Information technology

biotechnology entertainment Software etc

India has Over 3 million scientific amp technical manpower Over 06 million SampT post

graduates Over 07 million graduate engineers Over 3500 doctorates in sciences every

year

Assuming trend growth in agriculture under normal monsoon conditions and barring

domestic or external shocks the Reserve Bank in its Annual Policy Statement for 2007-

08 (April 2007) placed real GDP growth for policy purposes in the range of 75-80 per

cent during 2007-08 Growth prospects are however subject to a number of downside

risks The risks emanating from the global economy are potential escalation and

volatility in international crude oil prices firming up of overall inflationary pressures and

expectations and a hardening of international interest rates along with the withdrawal of

monetary accommodation

Indiarsquos demographic advantage ndash In contrast to developed Countries India will have a

younger population for the next 50 years Hence India would be the hub for RampD

Inflation

Inflation was contained to 63 per cent by end-March 2007 within the indicative

trajectory of 50-55 per cent during 2007-08 The actual inflation was considerably lower

than the indicative trajectory and this could be mainly attributed to the deferred pass-

through of even the cognisable permanent component of international crude oil prices

Money Supply

31

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Monetary and liquidity conditions remained largely comfortable during 2006-07reflecting

proactive liquidity management operations by the Reserve Bank under the liquidity

adjustment facility flexible management of issuances under the market stabilisation

scheme and some private placement of Government securities

In short the Indian economy is exhibiting strong fundamentals and displaying

considerable resilience At the same time there are continuing signs of demand pressures

especially high credit growth that could exert upward pressure on prices when associated

with supply shocks such as from oil These pressures have the potential for impacting

stability and inflation expectations While domestic developments continue to dominate

the economy global factors tend to gain more attention now than before The global

outlook for growth is positive but downside risks in regard to inflation also RBI is

applying new repo and reverse repo for the balance of inflation and monetary policies

The following are macroeconomic policies generally found as part of government-

directed industrial auto policies

(a) Restrictions on domestic and foreign investment

(b) Domestic content requirements

(c) High tariff walls

(d) Auto export requirements

(e) National production to sales ratios

(f) Distribution controls

(g) Quotas and licensing requirements that significantly restrict imports

(h) Government approval for product related decisions including vehicle make

body type engine size etc

(i) Special government categories for auto taxes

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry Today it is

amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output multiplier of

224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy) In recent

32

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

years we have seen increasing number of global players entering Indian market by way of

Joint ventures collaborations or wholly owned subsidiary

The automobile industry is torn between trying to reduce costs on the one hand and on

the other dealing with the high price of performance-enhancing technology and

environmental compliance Key drivers in the automotive industry are

Reducing air pollution

Reduction of weight

Recyclability

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

The automobile market is at the maturity stage of the life cycle locally and globally due

to an increased number of competitors from domestic and foreign markets The

automobile market is characterized by a low potential for market growth but high sales

and profit potential as the products have still not saturated the market as a whole

Opportunities and Threats

a) Opportunities

Road Development The ongoing road development program would improve

connectivity to ports cities and villages through a network of highways and

interconnecting roads by 2010-11 Improved road network would help in faster

34

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

movement of goods between various cities and towns The Company launched TATA

Novus range of vehicles in the heavy segment and TATA ACE for last mile distribution

Car penetration in India Car penetration in India is 7 cars per 1000 persons

International In FY 2006-07 the Company increased share of its overseas vehicle sales

from 76 last year to record high of 111 (as of its total sales) and has planned

further increase in this year

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

PORTERrsquoS MODEL

43

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

SWOT ANALYSIS

STRENGHS

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

COMPANY ANALYSIS

The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific parts

A) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the AccountsATHE DIRECTORrsquoS REPORTThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship Fundamental AnalysisB THE AUDITORS REPORTThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors

C FINANCIAL STATEMENTSIt comprises of Balance Sheet Profit and Loss account Cash Flows Its analysis would be discussed later

DSCHEDULESThe schedules detail pertinent information about the items of Balance Sheet and Profit amp Loss Account It also details information about sales manufacturing costs administration costs interest and other income and expenses

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The Company The Annual Report Ratios Cash flow

THE MANAGEMENT

The single most important factor one should consider when investing in a company and one often never considered is its management In India management can be broadlydivided in two types Family Management Professional Management

THE COMPANY

An aspect not necessarily examined during an analysis of fundamentals is the company A company may have made losses consecutively for two years or more and one may not wish to touch its shares - yet it may be a good company and worth purchasing into There are several factors one should look at

1 How a company is perceived by its competitorsOne of the key factors to ascertain is how a company is perceived by its competitors It is held in high regard Its management may be known for its maturity vision competence and aggressiveness The investor must ascertain the reason and then determine whetherthe reason will continue into the foreseeable future

2 Whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segmentAnother aspect that should be ascertained is whether the company is the market leader in its products or in its segment When you invest in market leaders the risk is less Theshares of market leaders do not fall as quickly as those of other companies There is a magic to their name that would make individuals prefer to buy their products as opposed to others

3 Company PoliciesThe policy a company follows is also important What is its plans for growth What is its vision Every company has a life If it is allowed to live a normal life it will grow upto a point and then begin to level out and eventually die It is at the point of leveling out that it must be given new life This can give it renewed vigour and a new lease of life

4 Labour RelationsLabour relations are extremely important A company that has motivated industrious work force has high productivity and practically no disruption of work On the other hand a company that has bad industrial relations will lose several hundred mandays as a consequence of strikes and go slows

24

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

5 Where the company is located and where its factories are One must also consider where the companies Plants and Factories are located

THE ANNUAL REPORT

The primary and most important source of information about a company is its Annual Report By law this is prepared every year and distributed to the shareholders Annual Reports are usually very well presented A tremendous amount of data is given about the performance of a company over a period of time The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific partsA) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the Accounts

A The Directorrsquos ReportThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship 1 It enunciates the opinion of the directors on the state of the economy and the political situation vis-agrave-vis the company 2 Explains the performance and the financial results of the company in the period under review This is an extremely important part The results and operations of the various separate divisions are usually detailed and investors can determine the reasons for their good or bad performance3 The Directorrsquos Report details the companys plans for modernization expansion and diversification Without these a company will remain static and eventually decline4 Discusses the profit earned in the period under review and the dividend Recommended by the directors This paragraph should normally be read with some skepticism as the directors will always argue that the performance was satisfactory If adverse economic conditions are usually at fault 5 Elaborates on the directors views of the companys prospects in the future6 Discusses plans for new acquisition and investments An investor must intelligently evaluate the issues raised in a Directorrsquos Report Industry conditions and the managements knowledge of the business must be considered

B The Auditors ReportThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors Auditors are required to report whether the financial statements presented do in fact present a true and fair view of the state of the company Investors must remember that the auditors are their representatives and that they are required by law to point out if the financial statements are not true and fair

CFinancial Statements

25

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The published financial statements of a company in an Annual Report consist of its Balance Sheet as at the end of the accounting period detailing the financing condition of the company at that date and the Profit and Loss Account or Income Statement summarizing the activities of the company for the accounting period

BALANCE SHEETThe Balance Sheet details the financial position of a company on a particular date of the companys assets (that which the company owns) and liabilities (that which the companyowes) grouped logically under specific heads It must however be noted that the Balance Sheet details the financial position on a particular day and that the position can be materially different on the next day or the day after

PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNTThe Profit and Loss account summarizes the activities of a company during an accounting period which may be a month a quarter six months a year or longer and the result achieved by the company It details the income earned by the company its cost and the resulting profit or loss It is in effect the performance appraisal not only of the company but also of its management- its competence foresight and ability to lead

RATIOS

Ratios express mathematically the relationship between performance figures andor assetsliabilities in a form that can be easily understood and interpretedNo single ratio tells the complete storyRatios can be broken down into four broad categories

26

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(A) Profit and Loss RatiosThese show the relationship between two items or groups of items in a profit and loss account or income statement The more common of these ratios are1 Sales to cost of goods sold2 Selling expenses to sales3 Net profit to sales and4 Gross profit to sales

(B) Balance Sheet RatiosThese deal with the relationship in the balance sheet such as 1 Shareholders equity to borrowed funds2 Current assets to current liabilities3 Liabilities to net worth4 Debt to assets and5 Liabilities to assets

(C) Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Account RatiosThese relate an item on the balance sheet to another in the profit and loss account such as1 Earnings to shareholders funds2 Net income to assets employed3 Sales to stock4 Sales to debtors and5 Cost of goods sold to creditors

(D) Financial Statements and Market RatiosThese are normally known as market ratios and are arrived at by relative financial figures to market prices1 Market value to earnings and2 Book value to market value(a) Market value(b) Earnings(c) Profitability(d) Liquidity(e) Leverage(f) Debt Service Capacity(g) Asset ManagementEfficiency(h) Margins

The major ratios that are considered(i) Market value(ii) Price- earnings ratio(iii) Market-to-book ratio(iv) Earnings(v) Earning per share(vi) Dividend per share

27

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(vii) Dividend payout ratio(viii) Leverage ratios(ix) Return on investmentstotal assets

CASH FLOW A statement of sources and uses begins with the profit for the year to which are added the increases in liability accounts (sources) and from which are reduced the increases in asset accounts (uses) The net result shows whether there has been an excess or deficit of funds and how this was financed Investors must examine a companys cash flow as it reveals exactly where the money came from how it was utilized Investors must be concerned if a company is financing either its inventories or paying dividends from borrowings without real growth as that shows deterioration

CHAPTER-4 ANALYSIS

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

I FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF STOCKS

Basically fundamental analysis is covered in 3 parts

1 Market economy analysis

2 Industry Analysis

3 Company Analysis

1) TATA MOTORS

I Market Economy Analysis

It covers the macro economy analysis and the various macro economic factors on the national level like GDP Monetary policies of India Fiscal Policies and Inflation and money supply etc

GDP

Real GDP growth accelerated from 75 per cent during 2004-05 to 84 per cent during

2005-06 on the back of buoyant manufacturing and services activity supported by a

recovery in the agricultural sector Real GDP growth has thus averaged over eight per

cent during the last three years and over seven per cent in the first four years (2002-03 to

2005-06) of the Tenth Five Year Plan

Strengths of India today are

30

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A well diversified industrial base which profits from self-reliance in all core industries A

large amp sophisticated financial architecture - The robust capital Markets today have over

9000 listed companies and boast of a massive Market capitalization

A healthy GDP composition with agriculture contributing 22 Industry 22 and

services which have gone strength to strength accounting For 56 of the GDP an

acknowledged strength in knowledge driven industries like Information technology

biotechnology entertainment Software etc

India has Over 3 million scientific amp technical manpower Over 06 million SampT post

graduates Over 07 million graduate engineers Over 3500 doctorates in sciences every

year

Assuming trend growth in agriculture under normal monsoon conditions and barring

domestic or external shocks the Reserve Bank in its Annual Policy Statement for 2007-

08 (April 2007) placed real GDP growth for policy purposes in the range of 75-80 per

cent during 2007-08 Growth prospects are however subject to a number of downside

risks The risks emanating from the global economy are potential escalation and

volatility in international crude oil prices firming up of overall inflationary pressures and

expectations and a hardening of international interest rates along with the withdrawal of

monetary accommodation

Indiarsquos demographic advantage ndash In contrast to developed Countries India will have a

younger population for the next 50 years Hence India would be the hub for RampD

Inflation

Inflation was contained to 63 per cent by end-March 2007 within the indicative

trajectory of 50-55 per cent during 2007-08 The actual inflation was considerably lower

than the indicative trajectory and this could be mainly attributed to the deferred pass-

through of even the cognisable permanent component of international crude oil prices

Money Supply

31

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Monetary and liquidity conditions remained largely comfortable during 2006-07reflecting

proactive liquidity management operations by the Reserve Bank under the liquidity

adjustment facility flexible management of issuances under the market stabilisation

scheme and some private placement of Government securities

In short the Indian economy is exhibiting strong fundamentals and displaying

considerable resilience At the same time there are continuing signs of demand pressures

especially high credit growth that could exert upward pressure on prices when associated

with supply shocks such as from oil These pressures have the potential for impacting

stability and inflation expectations While domestic developments continue to dominate

the economy global factors tend to gain more attention now than before The global

outlook for growth is positive but downside risks in regard to inflation also RBI is

applying new repo and reverse repo for the balance of inflation and monetary policies

The following are macroeconomic policies generally found as part of government-

directed industrial auto policies

(a) Restrictions on domestic and foreign investment

(b) Domestic content requirements

(c) High tariff walls

(d) Auto export requirements

(e) National production to sales ratios

(f) Distribution controls

(g) Quotas and licensing requirements that significantly restrict imports

(h) Government approval for product related decisions including vehicle make

body type engine size etc

(i) Special government categories for auto taxes

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry Today it is

amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output multiplier of

224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy) In recent

32

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

years we have seen increasing number of global players entering Indian market by way of

Joint ventures collaborations or wholly owned subsidiary

The automobile industry is torn between trying to reduce costs on the one hand and on

the other dealing with the high price of performance-enhancing technology and

environmental compliance Key drivers in the automotive industry are

Reducing air pollution

Reduction of weight

Recyclability

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

The automobile market is at the maturity stage of the life cycle locally and globally due

to an increased number of competitors from domestic and foreign markets The

automobile market is characterized by a low potential for market growth but high sales

and profit potential as the products have still not saturated the market as a whole

Opportunities and Threats

a) Opportunities

Road Development The ongoing road development program would improve

connectivity to ports cities and villages through a network of highways and

interconnecting roads by 2010-11 Improved road network would help in faster

34

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

movement of goods between various cities and towns The Company launched TATA

Novus range of vehicles in the heavy segment and TATA ACE for last mile distribution

Car penetration in India Car penetration in India is 7 cars per 1000 persons

International In FY 2006-07 the Company increased share of its overseas vehicle sales

from 76 last year to record high of 111 (as of its total sales) and has planned

further increase in this year

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

PORTERrsquoS MODEL

43

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

SWOT ANALYSIS

STRENGHS

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

COMPANY ANALYSIS

The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific parts

A) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the AccountsATHE DIRECTORrsquoS REPORTThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship Fundamental AnalysisB THE AUDITORS REPORTThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors

C FINANCIAL STATEMENTSIt comprises of Balance Sheet Profit and Loss account Cash Flows Its analysis would be discussed later

DSCHEDULESThe schedules detail pertinent information about the items of Balance Sheet and Profit amp Loss Account It also details information about sales manufacturing costs administration costs interest and other income and expenses

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3 ANNUAL REPORT

The most primary and most important source of information about a company is its

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

5 Where the company is located and where its factories are One must also consider where the companies Plants and Factories are located

THE ANNUAL REPORT

The primary and most important source of information about a company is its Annual Report By law this is prepared every year and distributed to the shareholders Annual Reports are usually very well presented A tremendous amount of data is given about the performance of a company over a period of time The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific partsA) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the Accounts

A The Directorrsquos ReportThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship 1 It enunciates the opinion of the directors on the state of the economy and the political situation vis-agrave-vis the company 2 Explains the performance and the financial results of the company in the period under review This is an extremely important part The results and operations of the various separate divisions are usually detailed and investors can determine the reasons for their good or bad performance3 The Directorrsquos Report details the companys plans for modernization expansion and diversification Without these a company will remain static and eventually decline4 Discusses the profit earned in the period under review and the dividend Recommended by the directors This paragraph should normally be read with some skepticism as the directors will always argue that the performance was satisfactory If adverse economic conditions are usually at fault 5 Elaborates on the directors views of the companys prospects in the future6 Discusses plans for new acquisition and investments An investor must intelligently evaluate the issues raised in a Directorrsquos Report Industry conditions and the managements knowledge of the business must be considered

B The Auditors ReportThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors Auditors are required to report whether the financial statements presented do in fact present a true and fair view of the state of the company Investors must remember that the auditors are their representatives and that they are required by law to point out if the financial statements are not true and fair

CFinancial Statements

25

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The published financial statements of a company in an Annual Report consist of its Balance Sheet as at the end of the accounting period detailing the financing condition of the company at that date and the Profit and Loss Account or Income Statement summarizing the activities of the company for the accounting period

BALANCE SHEETThe Balance Sheet details the financial position of a company on a particular date of the companys assets (that which the company owns) and liabilities (that which the companyowes) grouped logically under specific heads It must however be noted that the Balance Sheet details the financial position on a particular day and that the position can be materially different on the next day or the day after

PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNTThe Profit and Loss account summarizes the activities of a company during an accounting period which may be a month a quarter six months a year or longer and the result achieved by the company It details the income earned by the company its cost and the resulting profit or loss It is in effect the performance appraisal not only of the company but also of its management- its competence foresight and ability to lead

RATIOS

Ratios express mathematically the relationship between performance figures andor assetsliabilities in a form that can be easily understood and interpretedNo single ratio tells the complete storyRatios can be broken down into four broad categories

26

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(A) Profit and Loss RatiosThese show the relationship between two items or groups of items in a profit and loss account or income statement The more common of these ratios are1 Sales to cost of goods sold2 Selling expenses to sales3 Net profit to sales and4 Gross profit to sales

(B) Balance Sheet RatiosThese deal with the relationship in the balance sheet such as 1 Shareholders equity to borrowed funds2 Current assets to current liabilities3 Liabilities to net worth4 Debt to assets and5 Liabilities to assets

(C) Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Account RatiosThese relate an item on the balance sheet to another in the profit and loss account such as1 Earnings to shareholders funds2 Net income to assets employed3 Sales to stock4 Sales to debtors and5 Cost of goods sold to creditors

(D) Financial Statements and Market RatiosThese are normally known as market ratios and are arrived at by relative financial figures to market prices1 Market value to earnings and2 Book value to market value(a) Market value(b) Earnings(c) Profitability(d) Liquidity(e) Leverage(f) Debt Service Capacity(g) Asset ManagementEfficiency(h) Margins

The major ratios that are considered(i) Market value(ii) Price- earnings ratio(iii) Market-to-book ratio(iv) Earnings(v) Earning per share(vi) Dividend per share

27

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(vii) Dividend payout ratio(viii) Leverage ratios(ix) Return on investmentstotal assets

CASH FLOW A statement of sources and uses begins with the profit for the year to which are added the increases in liability accounts (sources) and from which are reduced the increases in asset accounts (uses) The net result shows whether there has been an excess or deficit of funds and how this was financed Investors must examine a companys cash flow as it reveals exactly where the money came from how it was utilized Investors must be concerned if a company is financing either its inventories or paying dividends from borrowings without real growth as that shows deterioration

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

I FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF STOCKS

Basically fundamental analysis is covered in 3 parts

1 Market economy analysis

2 Industry Analysis

3 Company Analysis

1) TATA MOTORS

I Market Economy Analysis

It covers the macro economy analysis and the various macro economic factors on the national level like GDP Monetary policies of India Fiscal Policies and Inflation and money supply etc

GDP

Real GDP growth accelerated from 75 per cent during 2004-05 to 84 per cent during

2005-06 on the back of buoyant manufacturing and services activity supported by a

recovery in the agricultural sector Real GDP growth has thus averaged over eight per

cent during the last three years and over seven per cent in the first four years (2002-03 to

2005-06) of the Tenth Five Year Plan

Strengths of India today are

30

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A well diversified industrial base which profits from self-reliance in all core industries A

large amp sophisticated financial architecture - The robust capital Markets today have over

9000 listed companies and boast of a massive Market capitalization

A healthy GDP composition with agriculture contributing 22 Industry 22 and

services which have gone strength to strength accounting For 56 of the GDP an

acknowledged strength in knowledge driven industries like Information technology

biotechnology entertainment Software etc

India has Over 3 million scientific amp technical manpower Over 06 million SampT post

graduates Over 07 million graduate engineers Over 3500 doctorates in sciences every

year

Assuming trend growth in agriculture under normal monsoon conditions and barring

domestic or external shocks the Reserve Bank in its Annual Policy Statement for 2007-

08 (April 2007) placed real GDP growth for policy purposes in the range of 75-80 per

cent during 2007-08 Growth prospects are however subject to a number of downside

risks The risks emanating from the global economy are potential escalation and

volatility in international crude oil prices firming up of overall inflationary pressures and

expectations and a hardening of international interest rates along with the withdrawal of

monetary accommodation

Indiarsquos demographic advantage ndash In contrast to developed Countries India will have a

younger population for the next 50 years Hence India would be the hub for RampD

Inflation

Inflation was contained to 63 per cent by end-March 2007 within the indicative

trajectory of 50-55 per cent during 2007-08 The actual inflation was considerably lower

than the indicative trajectory and this could be mainly attributed to the deferred pass-

through of even the cognisable permanent component of international crude oil prices

Money Supply

31

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Monetary and liquidity conditions remained largely comfortable during 2006-07reflecting

proactive liquidity management operations by the Reserve Bank under the liquidity

adjustment facility flexible management of issuances under the market stabilisation

scheme and some private placement of Government securities

In short the Indian economy is exhibiting strong fundamentals and displaying

considerable resilience At the same time there are continuing signs of demand pressures

especially high credit growth that could exert upward pressure on prices when associated

with supply shocks such as from oil These pressures have the potential for impacting

stability and inflation expectations While domestic developments continue to dominate

the economy global factors tend to gain more attention now than before The global

outlook for growth is positive but downside risks in regard to inflation also RBI is

applying new repo and reverse repo for the balance of inflation and monetary policies

The following are macroeconomic policies generally found as part of government-

directed industrial auto policies

(a) Restrictions on domestic and foreign investment

(b) Domestic content requirements

(c) High tariff walls

(d) Auto export requirements

(e) National production to sales ratios

(f) Distribution controls

(g) Quotas and licensing requirements that significantly restrict imports

(h) Government approval for product related decisions including vehicle make

body type engine size etc

(i) Special government categories for auto taxes

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry Today it is

amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output multiplier of

224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy) In recent

32

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

years we have seen increasing number of global players entering Indian market by way of

Joint ventures collaborations or wholly owned subsidiary

The automobile industry is torn between trying to reduce costs on the one hand and on

the other dealing with the high price of performance-enhancing technology and

environmental compliance Key drivers in the automotive industry are

Reducing air pollution

Reduction of weight

Recyclability

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

The automobile market is at the maturity stage of the life cycle locally and globally due

to an increased number of competitors from domestic and foreign markets The

automobile market is characterized by a low potential for market growth but high sales

and profit potential as the products have still not saturated the market as a whole

Opportunities and Threats

a) Opportunities

Road Development The ongoing road development program would improve

connectivity to ports cities and villages through a network of highways and

interconnecting roads by 2010-11 Improved road network would help in faster

34

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

movement of goods between various cities and towns The Company launched TATA

Novus range of vehicles in the heavy segment and TATA ACE for last mile distribution

Car penetration in India Car penetration in India is 7 cars per 1000 persons

International In FY 2006-07 the Company increased share of its overseas vehicle sales

from 76 last year to record high of 111 (as of its total sales) and has planned

further increase in this year

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

PORTERrsquoS MODEL

43

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

SWOT ANALYSIS

STRENGHS

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

COMPANY ANALYSIS

The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific parts

A) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the AccountsATHE DIRECTORrsquoS REPORTThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship Fundamental AnalysisB THE AUDITORS REPORTThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors

C FINANCIAL STATEMENTSIt comprises of Balance Sheet Profit and Loss account Cash Flows Its analysis would be discussed later

DSCHEDULESThe schedules detail pertinent information about the items of Balance Sheet and Profit amp Loss Account It also details information about sales manufacturing costs administration costs interest and other income and expenses

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3 ANNUAL REPORT

The most primary and most important source of information about a company is its

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

The published financial statements of a company in an Annual Report consist of its Balance Sheet as at the end of the accounting period detailing the financing condition of the company at that date and the Profit and Loss Account or Income Statement summarizing the activities of the company for the accounting period

BALANCE SHEETThe Balance Sheet details the financial position of a company on a particular date of the companys assets (that which the company owns) and liabilities (that which the companyowes) grouped logically under specific heads It must however be noted that the Balance Sheet details the financial position on a particular day and that the position can be materially different on the next day or the day after

PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNTThe Profit and Loss account summarizes the activities of a company during an accounting period which may be a month a quarter six months a year or longer and the result achieved by the company It details the income earned by the company its cost and the resulting profit or loss It is in effect the performance appraisal not only of the company but also of its management- its competence foresight and ability to lead

RATIOS

Ratios express mathematically the relationship between performance figures andor assetsliabilities in a form that can be easily understood and interpretedNo single ratio tells the complete storyRatios can be broken down into four broad categories

26

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

(A) Profit and Loss RatiosThese show the relationship between two items or groups of items in a profit and loss account or income statement The more common of these ratios are1 Sales to cost of goods sold2 Selling expenses to sales3 Net profit to sales and4 Gross profit to sales

(B) Balance Sheet RatiosThese deal with the relationship in the balance sheet such as 1 Shareholders equity to borrowed funds2 Current assets to current liabilities3 Liabilities to net worth4 Debt to assets and5 Liabilities to assets

(C) Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Account RatiosThese relate an item on the balance sheet to another in the profit and loss account such as1 Earnings to shareholders funds2 Net income to assets employed3 Sales to stock4 Sales to debtors and5 Cost of goods sold to creditors

(D) Financial Statements and Market RatiosThese are normally known as market ratios and are arrived at by relative financial figures to market prices1 Market value to earnings and2 Book value to market value(a) Market value(b) Earnings(c) Profitability(d) Liquidity(e) Leverage(f) Debt Service Capacity(g) Asset ManagementEfficiency(h) Margins

(vii) Dividend payout ratio(viii) Leverage ratios(ix) Return on investmentstotal assets

CASH FLOW A statement of sources and uses begins with the profit for the year to which are added the increases in liability accounts (sources) and from which are reduced the increases in asset accounts (uses) The net result shows whether there has been an excess or deficit of funds and how this was financed Investors must examine a companys cash flow as it reveals exactly where the money came from how it was utilized Investors must be concerned if a company is financing either its inventories or paying dividends from borrowings without real growth as that shows deterioration

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

I FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF STOCKS

Basically fundamental analysis is covered in 3 parts

1 Market economy analysis

2 Industry Analysis

3 Company Analysis

1) TATA MOTORS

I Market Economy Analysis

It covers the macro economy analysis and the various macro economic factors on the national level like GDP Monetary policies of India Fiscal Policies and Inflation and money supply etc

GDP

Real GDP growth accelerated from 75 per cent during 2004-05 to 84 per cent during

2005-06 on the back of buoyant manufacturing and services activity supported by a

recovery in the agricultural sector Real GDP growth has thus averaged over eight per

cent during the last three years and over seven per cent in the first four years (2002-03 to

2005-06) of the Tenth Five Year Plan

Strengths of India today are

30

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A well diversified industrial base which profits from self-reliance in all core industries A

large amp sophisticated financial architecture - The robust capital Markets today have over

9000 listed companies and boast of a massive Market capitalization

A healthy GDP composition with agriculture contributing 22 Industry 22 and

services which have gone strength to strength accounting For 56 of the GDP an

acknowledged strength in knowledge driven industries like Information technology

biotechnology entertainment Software etc

India has Over 3 million scientific amp technical manpower Over 06 million SampT post

graduates Over 07 million graduate engineers Over 3500 doctorates in sciences every

year

Assuming trend growth in agriculture under normal monsoon conditions and barring

domestic or external shocks the Reserve Bank in its Annual Policy Statement for 2007-

08 (April 2007) placed real GDP growth for policy purposes in the range of 75-80 per

cent during 2007-08 Growth prospects are however subject to a number of downside

risks The risks emanating from the global economy are potential escalation and

volatility in international crude oil prices firming up of overall inflationary pressures and

expectations and a hardening of international interest rates along with the withdrawal of

monetary accommodation

Indiarsquos demographic advantage ndash In contrast to developed Countries India will have a

younger population for the next 50 years Hence India would be the hub for RampD

Inflation

Inflation was contained to 63 per cent by end-March 2007 within the indicative

trajectory of 50-55 per cent during 2007-08 The actual inflation was considerably lower

than the indicative trajectory and this could be mainly attributed to the deferred pass-

through of even the cognisable permanent component of international crude oil prices

Money Supply

31

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Monetary and liquidity conditions remained largely comfortable during 2006-07reflecting

proactive liquidity management operations by the Reserve Bank under the liquidity

adjustment facility flexible management of issuances under the market stabilisation

scheme and some private placement of Government securities

In short the Indian economy is exhibiting strong fundamentals and displaying

considerable resilience At the same time there are continuing signs of demand pressures

especially high credit growth that could exert upward pressure on prices when associated

with supply shocks such as from oil These pressures have the potential for impacting

stability and inflation expectations While domestic developments continue to dominate

the economy global factors tend to gain more attention now than before The global

outlook for growth is positive but downside risks in regard to inflation also RBI is

applying new repo and reverse repo for the balance of inflation and monetary policies

The following are macroeconomic policies generally found as part of government-

directed industrial auto policies

(a) Restrictions on domestic and foreign investment

(b) Domestic content requirements

(c) High tariff walls

(d) Auto export requirements

(e) National production to sales ratios

(f) Distribution controls

(g) Quotas and licensing requirements that significantly restrict imports

(h) Government approval for product related decisions including vehicle make

body type engine size etc

(i) Special government categories for auto taxes

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry Today it is

amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output multiplier of

224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy) In recent

32

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

years we have seen increasing number of global players entering Indian market by way of

Joint ventures collaborations or wholly owned subsidiary

The automobile industry is torn between trying to reduce costs on the one hand and on

the other dealing with the high price of performance-enhancing technology and

environmental compliance Key drivers in the automotive industry are

Reducing air pollution

Reduction of weight

Recyclability

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

The automobile market is at the maturity stage of the life cycle locally and globally due

to an increased number of competitors from domestic and foreign markets The

automobile market is characterized by a low potential for market growth but high sales

and profit potential as the products have still not saturated the market as a whole

Opportunities and Threats

a) Opportunities

Road Development The ongoing road development program would improve

connectivity to ports cities and villages through a network of highways and

interconnecting roads by 2010-11 Improved road network would help in faster

34

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

movement of goods between various cities and towns The Company launched TATA

Novus range of vehicles in the heavy segment and TATA ACE for last mile distribution

Car penetration in India Car penetration in India is 7 cars per 1000 persons

International In FY 2006-07 the Company increased share of its overseas vehicle sales

from 76 last year to record high of 111 (as of its total sales) and has planned

further increase in this year

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

PORTERrsquoS MODEL

43

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

SWOT ANALYSIS

STRENGHS

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

COMPANY ANALYSIS

The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific parts

A) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the AccountsATHE DIRECTORrsquoS REPORTThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship Fundamental AnalysisB THE AUDITORS REPORTThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors

C FINANCIAL STATEMENTSIt comprises of Balance Sheet Profit and Loss account Cash Flows Its analysis would be discussed later

DSCHEDULESThe schedules detail pertinent information about the items of Balance Sheet and Profit amp Loss Account It also details information about sales manufacturing costs administration costs interest and other income and expenses

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3 ANNUAL REPORT

The most primary and most important source of information about a company is its

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

78

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

ADVANCEDECLINE LINE The ldquoadvancedecline linerdquo shows for some period the cumulative difference between advancing and declining issues

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 sharesHI-LO-CLOSE CHART A hi-lo-close chart is a bar chart showing for each day the

high price low price and closing price

CANDESTICK CHART A candlestick chart is an extended version of the hi-lo-close chart It plots the high low open and closing prices and also shows whether the closing price was above or below the opening price

POINT AND FIGURE CHARTS Point-and-figure charts are a way of showing only major price moves and their direction A ldquomajorrdquo up move is marked with an ldquoXrdquo while a ldquomajorrdquo down move is marked with an ldquoOrdquo A new column starts every time there is a change in direction

HEAD AND SHOULDERS FORMATION Once a chart is drawn technical analysts examine it for various formations or pattern types in an attempt to predict stock price or market direction in the case of head-and-shoulders formation

ODD-LOT The ldquoodd-lotrdquo indicator looks at whether odd-lot purchases are up or down

HEMLINE Followers of the ldquohemlinerdquo indicator claim that hemlines tend to rise in good times

SUPER BOWL The Super Bowl indicator forecasts the direction of the market based on whether the National Football Conference or the American Football Conference wins

CASH FLOW A statement of sources and uses begins with the profit for the year to which are added the increases in liability accounts (sources) and from which are reduced the increases in asset accounts (uses) The net result shows whether there has been an excess or deficit of funds and how this was financed Investors must examine a companys cash flow as it reveals exactly where the money came from how it was utilized Investors must be concerned if a company is financing either its inventories or paying dividends from borrowings without real growth as that shows deterioration

I FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF STOCKS

Basically fundamental analysis is covered in 3 parts

1 Market economy analysis

2 Industry Analysis

3 Company Analysis

1) TATA MOTORS

I Market Economy Analysis

It covers the macro economy analysis and the various macro economic factors on the national level like GDP Monetary policies of India Fiscal Policies and Inflation and money supply etc

GDP

Real GDP growth accelerated from 75 per cent during 2004-05 to 84 per cent during

2005-06 on the back of buoyant manufacturing and services activity supported by a

recovery in the agricultural sector Real GDP growth has thus averaged over eight per

cent during the last three years and over seven per cent in the first four years (2002-03 to

2005-06) of the Tenth Five Year Plan

Strengths of India today are

30

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A well diversified industrial base which profits from self-reliance in all core industries A

large amp sophisticated financial architecture - The robust capital Markets today have over

9000 listed companies and boast of a massive Market capitalization

A healthy GDP composition with agriculture contributing 22 Industry 22 and

services which have gone strength to strength accounting For 56 of the GDP an

acknowledged strength in knowledge driven industries like Information technology

biotechnology entertainment Software etc

India has Over 3 million scientific amp technical manpower Over 06 million SampT post

graduates Over 07 million graduate engineers Over 3500 doctorates in sciences every

year

Assuming trend growth in agriculture under normal monsoon conditions and barring

domestic or external shocks the Reserve Bank in its Annual Policy Statement for 2007-

08 (April 2007) placed real GDP growth for policy purposes in the range of 75-80 per

cent during 2007-08 Growth prospects are however subject to a number of downside

risks The risks emanating from the global economy are potential escalation and

volatility in international crude oil prices firming up of overall inflationary pressures and

expectations and a hardening of international interest rates along with the withdrawal of

monetary accommodation

Indiarsquos demographic advantage ndash In contrast to developed Countries India will have a

younger population for the next 50 years Hence India would be the hub for RampD

Inflation

Inflation was contained to 63 per cent by end-March 2007 within the indicative

trajectory of 50-55 per cent during 2007-08 The actual inflation was considerably lower

than the indicative trajectory and this could be mainly attributed to the deferred pass-

through of even the cognisable permanent component of international crude oil prices

Money Supply

31

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Monetary and liquidity conditions remained largely comfortable during 2006-07reflecting

proactive liquidity management operations by the Reserve Bank under the liquidity

adjustment facility flexible management of issuances under the market stabilisation

scheme and some private placement of Government securities

In short the Indian economy is exhibiting strong fundamentals and displaying

considerable resilience At the same time there are continuing signs of demand pressures

especially high credit growth that could exert upward pressure on prices when associated

with supply shocks such as from oil These pressures have the potential for impacting

stability and inflation expectations While domestic developments continue to dominate

the economy global factors tend to gain more attention now than before The global

outlook for growth is positive but downside risks in regard to inflation also RBI is

applying new repo and reverse repo for the balance of inflation and monetary policies

The following are macroeconomic policies generally found as part of government-

directed industrial auto policies

(a) Restrictions on domestic and foreign investment

(b) Domestic content requirements

(c) High tariff walls

(d) Auto export requirements

(e) National production to sales ratios

(f) Distribution controls

(g) Quotas and licensing requirements that significantly restrict imports

(h) Government approval for product related decisions including vehicle make

body type engine size etc

(i) Special government categories for auto taxes

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry Today it is

amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output multiplier of

224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy) In recent

32

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

years we have seen increasing number of global players entering Indian market by way of

Joint ventures collaborations or wholly owned subsidiary

The automobile industry is torn between trying to reduce costs on the one hand and on

the other dealing with the high price of performance-enhancing technology and

environmental compliance Key drivers in the automotive industry are

Reducing air pollution

Reduction of weight

Recyclability

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

The automobile market is at the maturity stage of the life cycle locally and globally due

to an increased number of competitors from domestic and foreign markets The

automobile market is characterized by a low potential for market growth but high sales

and profit potential as the products have still not saturated the market as a whole

Opportunities and Threats

a) Opportunities

Road Development The ongoing road development program would improve

connectivity to ports cities and villages through a network of highways and

interconnecting roads by 2010-11 Improved road network would help in faster

34

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

movement of goods between various cities and towns The Company launched TATA

Novus range of vehicles in the heavy segment and TATA ACE for last mile distribution

Car penetration in India Car penetration in India is 7 cars per 1000 persons

International In FY 2006-07 the Company increased share of its overseas vehicle sales

from 76 last year to record high of 111 (as of its total sales) and has planned

further increase in this year

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

PORTERrsquoS MODEL

43

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

SWOT ANALYSIS

STRENGHS

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

COMPANY ANALYSIS

The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific parts

A) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the AccountsATHE DIRECTORrsquoS REPORTThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship Fundamental AnalysisB THE AUDITORS REPORTThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors

DSCHEDULESThe schedules detail pertinent information about the items of Balance Sheet and Profit amp Loss Account It also details information about sales manufacturing costs administration costs interest and other income and expenses

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3 ANNUAL REPORT

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

78

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

ADVANCEDECLINE LINE The ldquoadvancedecline linerdquo shows for some period the cumulative difference between advancing and declining issues

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 sharesHI-LO-CLOSE CHART A hi-lo-close chart is a bar chart showing for each day the

high price low price and closing price

CANDESTICK CHART A candlestick chart is an extended version of the hi-lo-close chart It plots the high low open and closing prices and also shows whether the closing price was above or below the opening price

POINT AND FIGURE CHARTS Point-and-figure charts are a way of showing only major price moves and their direction A ldquomajorrdquo up move is marked with an ldquoXrdquo while a ldquomajorrdquo down move is marked with an ldquoOrdquo A new column starts every time there is a change in direction

HEAD AND SHOULDERS FORMATION Once a chart is drawn technical analysts examine it for various formations or pattern types in an attempt to predict stock price or market direction in the case of head-and-shoulders formation

ODD-LOT The ldquoodd-lotrdquo indicator looks at whether odd-lot purchases are up or down

HEMLINE Followers of the ldquohemlinerdquo indicator claim that hemlines tend to rise in good times

SUPER BOWL The Super Bowl indicator forecasts the direction of the market based on whether the National Football Conference or the American Football Conference wins

BETA Beta is a risk measure comparing the volatility of a stocks price movement to the general market

MOMENTUM Momentum measures the speed of price change and provides a leading indicator of changes in trend

CASH FLOW A statement of sources and uses begins with the profit for the year to which are added the increases in liability accounts (sources) and from which are reduced the increases in asset accounts (uses) The net result shows whether there has been an excess or deficit of funds and how this was financed Investors must examine a companys cash flow as it reveals exactly where the money came from how it was utilized Investors must be concerned if a company is financing either its inventories or paying dividends from borrowings without real growth as that shows deterioration

I FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF STOCKS

Basically fundamental analysis is covered in 3 parts

1 Market economy analysis

2 Industry Analysis

3 Company Analysis

1) TATA MOTORS

I Market Economy Analysis

It covers the macro economy analysis and the various macro economic factors on the national level like GDP Monetary policies of India Fiscal Policies and Inflation and money supply etc

GDP

Real GDP growth accelerated from 75 per cent during 2004-05 to 84 per cent during

2005-06 on the back of buoyant manufacturing and services activity supported by a

recovery in the agricultural sector Real GDP growth has thus averaged over eight per

cent during the last three years and over seven per cent in the first four years (2002-03 to

2005-06) of the Tenth Five Year Plan

Strengths of India today are

30

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A well diversified industrial base which profits from self-reliance in all core industries A

large amp sophisticated financial architecture - The robust capital Markets today have over

9000 listed companies and boast of a massive Market capitalization

A healthy GDP composition with agriculture contributing 22 Industry 22 and

services which have gone strength to strength accounting For 56 of the GDP an

acknowledged strength in knowledge driven industries like Information technology

biotechnology entertainment Software etc

India has Over 3 million scientific amp technical manpower Over 06 million SampT post

graduates Over 07 million graduate engineers Over 3500 doctorates in sciences every

year

Assuming trend growth in agriculture under normal monsoon conditions and barring

domestic or external shocks the Reserve Bank in its Annual Policy Statement for 2007-

08 (April 2007) placed real GDP growth for policy purposes in the range of 75-80 per

cent during 2007-08 Growth prospects are however subject to a number of downside

risks The risks emanating from the global economy are potential escalation and

volatility in international crude oil prices firming up of overall inflationary pressures and

expectations and a hardening of international interest rates along with the withdrawal of

monetary accommodation

Indiarsquos demographic advantage ndash In contrast to developed Countries India will have a

younger population for the next 50 years Hence India would be the hub for RampD

Inflation

Inflation was contained to 63 per cent by end-March 2007 within the indicative

trajectory of 50-55 per cent during 2007-08 The actual inflation was considerably lower

than the indicative trajectory and this could be mainly attributed to the deferred pass-

through of even the cognisable permanent component of international crude oil prices

Money Supply

31

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Monetary and liquidity conditions remained largely comfortable during 2006-07reflecting

proactive liquidity management operations by the Reserve Bank under the liquidity

adjustment facility flexible management of issuances under the market stabilisation

scheme and some private placement of Government securities

In short the Indian economy is exhibiting strong fundamentals and displaying

considerable resilience At the same time there are continuing signs of demand pressures

especially high credit growth that could exert upward pressure on prices when associated

with supply shocks such as from oil These pressures have the potential for impacting

stability and inflation expectations While domestic developments continue to dominate

the economy global factors tend to gain more attention now than before The global

years we have seen increasing number of global players entering Indian market by way of

Joint ventures collaborations or wholly owned subsidiary

The automobile industry is torn between trying to reduce costs on the one hand and on

the other dealing with the high price of performance-enhancing technology and

environmental compliance Key drivers in the automotive industry are

Reducing air pollution

Reduction of weight

Recyclability

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

The automobile market is at the maturity stage of the life cycle locally and globally due

to an increased number of competitors from domestic and foreign markets The

automobile market is characterized by a low potential for market growth but high sales

and profit potential as the products have still not saturated the market as a whole

Opportunities and Threats

a) Opportunities

Road Development The ongoing road development program would improve

connectivity to ports cities and villages through a network of highways and

interconnecting roads by 2010-11 Improved road network would help in faster

34

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

movement of goods between various cities and towns The Company launched TATA

Novus range of vehicles in the heavy segment and TATA ACE for last mile distribution

Car penetration in India Car penetration in India is 7 cars per 1000 persons

International In FY 2006-07 the Company increased share of its overseas vehicle sales

from 76 last year to record high of 111 (as of its total sales) and has planned

further increase in this year

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

PORTERrsquoS MODEL

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

CHAPTER-4 ANALYSIS

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

I FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF STOCKS

Basically fundamental analysis is covered in 3 parts

1 Market economy analysis

2 Industry Analysis

3 Company Analysis

1) TATA MOTORS

I Market Economy Analysis

It covers the macro economy analysis and the various macro economic factors on the national level like GDP Monetary policies of India Fiscal Policies and Inflation and money supply etc

GDP

Real GDP growth accelerated from 75 per cent during 2004-05 to 84 per cent during

2005-06 on the back of buoyant manufacturing and services activity supported by a

recovery in the agricultural sector Real GDP growth has thus averaged over eight per

cent during the last three years and over seven per cent in the first four years (2002-03 to

2005-06) of the Tenth Five Year Plan

Strengths of India today are

30

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A well diversified industrial base which profits from self-reliance in all core industries A

large amp sophisticated financial architecture - The robust capital Markets today have over

9000 listed companies and boast of a massive Market capitalization

A healthy GDP composition with agriculture contributing 22 Industry 22 and

services which have gone strength to strength accounting For 56 of the GDP an

acknowledged strength in knowledge driven industries like Information technology

biotechnology entertainment Software etc

India has Over 3 million scientific amp technical manpower Over 06 million SampT post

graduates Over 07 million graduate engineers Over 3500 doctorates in sciences every

year

Assuming trend growth in agriculture under normal monsoon conditions and barring

domestic or external shocks the Reserve Bank in its Annual Policy Statement for 2007-

08 (April 2007) placed real GDP growth for policy purposes in the range of 75-80 per

cent during 2007-08 Growth prospects are however subject to a number of downside

risks The risks emanating from the global economy are potential escalation and

volatility in international crude oil prices firming up of overall inflationary pressures and

expectations and a hardening of international interest rates along with the withdrawal of

monetary accommodation

Indiarsquos demographic advantage ndash In contrast to developed Countries India will have a

younger population for the next 50 years Hence India would be the hub for RampD

Inflation

Inflation was contained to 63 per cent by end-March 2007 within the indicative

trajectory of 50-55 per cent during 2007-08 The actual inflation was considerably lower

than the indicative trajectory and this could be mainly attributed to the deferred pass-

through of even the cognisable permanent component of international crude oil prices

Money Supply

31

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Monetary and liquidity conditions remained largely comfortable during 2006-07reflecting

proactive liquidity management operations by the Reserve Bank under the liquidity

adjustment facility flexible management of issuances under the market stabilisation

scheme and some private placement of Government securities

In short the Indian economy is exhibiting strong fundamentals and displaying

considerable resilience At the same time there are continuing signs of demand pressures

especially high credit growth that could exert upward pressure on prices when associated

with supply shocks such as from oil These pressures have the potential for impacting

stability and inflation expectations While domestic developments continue to dominate

the economy global factors tend to gain more attention now than before The global

outlook for growth is positive but downside risks in regard to inflation also RBI is

applying new repo and reverse repo for the balance of inflation and monetary policies

The following are macroeconomic policies generally found as part of government-

directed industrial auto policies

(a) Restrictions on domestic and foreign investment

(b) Domestic content requirements

(c) High tariff walls

(d) Auto export requirements

(e) National production to sales ratios

(f) Distribution controls

(g) Quotas and licensing requirements that significantly restrict imports

(h) Government approval for product related decisions including vehicle make

body type engine size etc

(i) Special government categories for auto taxes

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry Today it is

amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output multiplier of

224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy) In recent

32

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

years we have seen increasing number of global players entering Indian market by way of

Joint ventures collaborations or wholly owned subsidiary

The automobile industry is torn between trying to reduce costs on the one hand and on

the other dealing with the high price of performance-enhancing technology and

environmental compliance Key drivers in the automotive industry are

Reducing air pollution

Reduction of weight

Recyclability

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

The automobile market is at the maturity stage of the life cycle locally and globally due

to an increased number of competitors from domestic and foreign markets The

automobile market is characterized by a low potential for market growth but high sales

and profit potential as the products have still not saturated the market as a whole

Opportunities and Threats

a) Opportunities

Road Development The ongoing road development program would improve

connectivity to ports cities and villages through a network of highways and

interconnecting roads by 2010-11 Improved road network would help in faster

34

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

movement of goods between various cities and towns The Company launched TATA

Novus range of vehicles in the heavy segment and TATA ACE for last mile distribution

Car penetration in India Car penetration in India is 7 cars per 1000 persons

International In FY 2006-07 the Company increased share of its overseas vehicle sales

from 76 last year to record high of 111 (as of its total sales) and has planned

further increase in this year

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

SWOT ANALYSIS

STRENGHS

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

CONCLUSION

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

78

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

ADVANCEDECLINE LINE The ldquoadvancedecline linerdquo shows for some period the cumulative difference between advancing and declining issues

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 sharesHI-LO-CLOSE CHART A hi-lo-close chart is a bar chart showing for each day the

high price low price and closing price

CANDESTICK CHART A candlestick chart is an extended version of the hi-lo-close chart It plots the high low open and closing prices and also shows whether the closing price was above or below the opening price

POINT AND FIGURE CHARTS Point-and-figure charts are a way of showing only major price moves and their direction A ldquomajorrdquo up move is marked with an ldquoXrdquo while a ldquomajorrdquo down move is marked with an ldquoOrdquo A new column starts every time there is a change in direction

HEAD AND SHOULDERS FORMATION Once a chart is drawn technical analysts examine it for various formations or pattern types in an attempt to predict stock price or market direction in the case of head-and-shoulders formation

ODD-LOT The ldquoodd-lotrdquo indicator looks at whether odd-lot purchases are up or down

HEMLINE Followers of the ldquohemlinerdquo indicator claim that hemlines tend to rise in good times

SUPER BOWL The Super Bowl indicator forecasts the direction of the market based on whether the National Football Conference or the American Football Conference wins

BETA Beta is a risk measure comparing the volatility of a stocks price movement to the general market

MOMENTUM Momentum measures the speed of price change and provides a leading indicator of changes in trend

UPSIDEDOWNSIDE Measures of UpsideDownside separate the volumes for rising markets from those in falling markets Since volume is independent of price it makes a valuable tool for measuring the quality of a price trend

SWING INDEX Is a swing or wave system used to capitalize on breakout patterns ASI is commonly used to confirm trend line breakouts on price charts

ARMS INDEX (TRIN) Short term breadth indicator showing whether volume is flowing into advancing or declining issues

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

I FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF STOCKS

Basically fundamental analysis is covered in 3 parts

1 Market economy analysis

2 Industry Analysis

3 Company Analysis

1) TATA MOTORS

I Market Economy Analysis

It covers the macro economy analysis and the various macro economic factors on the national level like GDP Monetary policies of India Fiscal Policies and Inflation and money supply etc

GDP

Real GDP growth accelerated from 75 per cent during 2004-05 to 84 per cent during

2005-06 on the back of buoyant manufacturing and services activity supported by a

recovery in the agricultural sector Real GDP growth has thus averaged over eight per

cent during the last three years and over seven per cent in the first four years (2002-03 to

2005-06) of the Tenth Five Year Plan

Strengths of India today are

30

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A well diversified industrial base which profits from self-reliance in all core industries A

large amp sophisticated financial architecture - The robust capital Markets today have over

9000 listed companies and boast of a massive Market capitalization

A healthy GDP composition with agriculture contributing 22 Industry 22 and

services which have gone strength to strength accounting For 56 of the GDP an

acknowledged strength in knowledge driven industries like Information technology

biotechnology entertainment Software etc

India has Over 3 million scientific amp technical manpower Over 06 million SampT post

graduates Over 07 million graduate engineers Over 3500 doctorates in sciences every

year

Assuming trend growth in agriculture under normal monsoon conditions and barring

domestic or external shocks the Reserve Bank in its Annual Policy Statement for 2007-

08 (April 2007) placed real GDP growth for policy purposes in the range of 75-80 per

cent during 2007-08 Growth prospects are however subject to a number of downside

risks The risks emanating from the global economy are potential escalation and

volatility in international crude oil prices firming up of overall inflationary pressures and

expectations and a hardening of international interest rates along with the withdrawal of

monetary accommodation

Indiarsquos demographic advantage ndash In contrast to developed Countries India will have a

younger population for the next 50 years Hence India would be the hub for RampD

Inflation

Inflation was contained to 63 per cent by end-March 2007 within the indicative

trajectory of 50-55 per cent during 2007-08 The actual inflation was considerably lower

than the indicative trajectory and this could be mainly attributed to the deferred pass-

through of even the cognisable permanent component of international crude oil prices

Money Supply

31

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Monetary and liquidity conditions remained largely comfortable during 2006-07reflecting

proactive liquidity management operations by the Reserve Bank under the liquidity

adjustment facility flexible management of issuances under the market stabilisation

scheme and some private placement of Government securities

In short the Indian economy is exhibiting strong fundamentals and displaying

considerable resilience At the same time there are continuing signs of demand pressures

especially high credit growth that could exert upward pressure on prices when associated

with supply shocks such as from oil These pressures have the potential for impacting

stability and inflation expectations While domestic developments continue to dominate

the economy global factors tend to gain more attention now than before The global

outlook for growth is positive but downside risks in regard to inflation also RBI is

applying new repo and reverse repo for the balance of inflation and monetary policies

The following are macroeconomic policies generally found as part of government-

directed industrial auto policies

(a) Restrictions on domestic and foreign investment

(b) Domestic content requirements

(c) High tariff walls

(d) Auto export requirements

(e) National production to sales ratios

(f) Distribution controls

(g) Quotas and licensing requirements that significantly restrict imports

(h) Government approval for product related decisions including vehicle make

body type engine size etc

(i) Special government categories for auto taxes

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry Today it is

amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output multiplier of

224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy) In recent

32

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

years we have seen increasing number of global players entering Indian market by way of

Joint ventures collaborations or wholly owned subsidiary

The automobile industry is torn between trying to reduce costs on the one hand and on

the other dealing with the high price of performance-enhancing technology and

environmental compliance Key drivers in the automotive industry are

Reducing air pollution

Reduction of weight

Recyclability

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

The automobile market is at the maturity stage of the life cycle locally and globally due

to an increased number of competitors from domestic and foreign markets The

automobile market is characterized by a low potential for market growth but high sales

and profit potential as the products have still not saturated the market as a whole

Opportunities and Threats

a) Opportunities

Road Development The ongoing road development program would improve

connectivity to ports cities and villages through a network of highways and

interconnecting roads by 2010-11 Improved road network would help in faster

34

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

movement of goods between various cities and towns The Company launched TATA

Novus range of vehicles in the heavy segment and TATA ACE for last mile distribution

Car penetration in India Car penetration in India is 7 cars per 1000 persons

International In FY 2006-07 the Company increased share of its overseas vehicle sales

from 76 last year to record high of 111 (as of its total sales) and has planned

further increase in this year

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

78

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

ADVANCEDECLINE LINE The ldquoadvancedecline linerdquo shows for some period the cumulative difference between advancing and declining issues

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 sharesHI-LO-CLOSE CHART A hi-lo-close chart is a bar chart showing for each day the

high price low price and closing price

CANDESTICK CHART A candlestick chart is an extended version of the hi-lo-close chart It plots the high low open and closing prices and also shows whether the closing price was above or below the opening price

POINT AND FIGURE CHARTS Point-and-figure charts are a way of showing only major price moves and their direction A ldquomajorrdquo up move is marked with an ldquoXrdquo while a ldquomajorrdquo down move is marked with an ldquoOrdquo A new column starts every time there is a change in direction

HEAD AND SHOULDERS FORMATION Once a chart is drawn technical analysts examine it for various formations or pattern types in an attempt to predict stock price or market direction in the case of head-and-shoulders formation

ODD-LOT The ldquoodd-lotrdquo indicator looks at whether odd-lot purchases are up or down

HEMLINE Followers of the ldquohemlinerdquo indicator claim that hemlines tend to rise in good times

SUPER BOWL The Super Bowl indicator forecasts the direction of the market based on whether the National Football Conference or the American Football Conference wins

BETA Beta is a risk measure comparing the volatility of a stocks price movement to the general market

MOMENTUM Momentum measures the speed of price change and provides a leading indicator of changes in trend

UPSIDEDOWNSIDE Measures of UpsideDownside separate the volumes for rising markets from those in falling markets Since volume is independent of price it makes a valuable tool for measuring the quality of a price trend

SWING INDEX Is a swing or wave system used to capitalize on breakout patterns ASI is commonly used to confirm trend line breakouts on price charts

ARMS INDEX (TRIN) Short term breadth indicator showing whether volume is flowing into advancing or declining issues

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

A well diversified industrial base which profits from self-reliance in all core industries A

large amp sophisticated financial architecture - The robust capital Markets today have over

9000 listed companies and boast of a massive Market capitalization

A healthy GDP composition with agriculture contributing 22 Industry 22 and

services which have gone strength to strength accounting For 56 of the GDP an

acknowledged strength in knowledge driven industries like Information technology

biotechnology entertainment Software etc

India has Over 3 million scientific amp technical manpower Over 06 million SampT post

graduates Over 07 million graduate engineers Over 3500 doctorates in sciences every

year

Assuming trend growth in agriculture under normal monsoon conditions and barring

domestic or external shocks the Reserve Bank in its Annual Policy Statement for 2007-

08 (April 2007) placed real GDP growth for policy purposes in the range of 75-80 per

cent during 2007-08 Growth prospects are however subject to a number of downside

risks The risks emanating from the global economy are potential escalation and

volatility in international crude oil prices firming up of overall inflationary pressures and

expectations and a hardening of international interest rates along with the withdrawal of

monetary accommodation

Indiarsquos demographic advantage ndash In contrast to developed Countries India will have a

younger population for the next 50 years Hence India would be the hub for RampD

Inflation

Inflation was contained to 63 per cent by end-March 2007 within the indicative

trajectory of 50-55 per cent during 2007-08 The actual inflation was considerably lower

than the indicative trajectory and this could be mainly attributed to the deferred pass-

through of even the cognisable permanent component of international crude oil prices

Money Supply

31

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Monetary and liquidity conditions remained largely comfortable during 2006-07reflecting

proactive liquidity management operations by the Reserve Bank under the liquidity

adjustment facility flexible management of issuances under the market stabilisation

scheme and some private placement of Government securities

In short the Indian economy is exhibiting strong fundamentals and displaying

considerable resilience At the same time there are continuing signs of demand pressures

especially high credit growth that could exert upward pressure on prices when associated

with supply shocks such as from oil These pressures have the potential for impacting

stability and inflation expectations While domestic developments continue to dominate

the economy global factors tend to gain more attention now than before The global

outlook for growth is positive but downside risks in regard to inflation also RBI is

applying new repo and reverse repo for the balance of inflation and monetary policies

The following are macroeconomic policies generally found as part of government-

directed industrial auto policies

(a) Restrictions on domestic and foreign investment

(b) Domestic content requirements

(c) High tariff walls

(d) Auto export requirements

(e) National production to sales ratios

(f) Distribution controls

(g) Quotas and licensing requirements that significantly restrict imports

(h) Government approval for product related decisions including vehicle make

body type engine size etc

(i) Special government categories for auto taxes

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry Today it is

amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output multiplier of

224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy) In recent

32

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

years we have seen increasing number of global players entering Indian market by way of

Joint ventures collaborations or wholly owned subsidiary

The automobile industry is torn between trying to reduce costs on the one hand and on

the other dealing with the high price of performance-enhancing technology and

environmental compliance Key drivers in the automotive industry are

Reducing air pollution

Reduction of weight

Recyclability

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

The automobile market is at the maturity stage of the life cycle locally and globally due

to an increased number of competitors from domestic and foreign markets The

automobile market is characterized by a low potential for market growth but high sales

and profit potential as the products have still not saturated the market as a whole

Opportunities and Threats

a) Opportunities

Road Development The ongoing road development program would improve

connectivity to ports cities and villages through a network of highways and

interconnecting roads by 2010-11 Improved road network would help in faster

34

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

movement of goods between various cities and towns The Company launched TATA

Novus range of vehicles in the heavy segment and TATA ACE for last mile distribution

Car penetration in India Car penetration in India is 7 cars per 1000 persons

International In FY 2006-07 the Company increased share of its overseas vehicle sales

from 76 last year to record high of 111 (as of its total sales) and has planned

further increase in this year

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

PORTERrsquoS MODEL

43

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

SWOT ANALYSIS

STRENGHS

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

COMPANY ANALYSIS

The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific parts

A) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the AccountsATHE DIRECTORrsquoS REPORTThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship Fundamental AnalysisB THE AUDITORS REPORTThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors

DSCHEDULESThe schedules detail pertinent information about the items of Balance Sheet and Profit amp Loss Account It also details information about sales manufacturing costs administration costs interest and other income and expenses

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

78

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

ADVANCEDECLINE LINE The ldquoadvancedecline linerdquo shows for some period the cumulative difference between advancing and declining issues

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 sharesHI-LO-CLOSE CHART A hi-lo-close chart is a bar chart showing for each day the

high price low price and closing price

CANDESTICK CHART A candlestick chart is an extended version of the hi-lo-close chart It plots the high low open and closing prices and also shows whether the closing price was above or below the opening price

POINT AND FIGURE CHARTS Point-and-figure charts are a way of showing only major price moves and their direction A ldquomajorrdquo up move is marked with an ldquoXrdquo while a ldquomajorrdquo down move is marked with an ldquoOrdquo A new column starts every time there is a change in direction

HEAD AND SHOULDERS FORMATION Once a chart is drawn technical analysts examine it for various formations or pattern types in an attempt to predict stock price or market direction in the case of head-and-shoulders formation

ODD-LOT The ldquoodd-lotrdquo indicator looks at whether odd-lot purchases are up or down

HEMLINE Followers of the ldquohemlinerdquo indicator claim that hemlines tend to rise in good times

SUPER BOWL The Super Bowl indicator forecasts the direction of the market based on whether the National Football Conference or the American Football Conference wins

BETA Beta is a risk measure comparing the volatility of a stocks price movement to the general market

MOMENTUM Momentum measures the speed of price change and provides a leading indicator of changes in trend

UPSIDEDOWNSIDE Measures of UpsideDownside separate the volumes for rising markets from those in falling markets Since volume is independent of price it makes a valuable tool for measuring the quality of a price trend

ARMS INDEX (TRIN) Short term breadth indicator showing whether volume is flowing into advancing or declining issues

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Monetary and liquidity conditions remained largely comfortable during 2006-07reflecting

proactive liquidity management operations by the Reserve Bank under the liquidity

adjustment facility flexible management of issuances under the market stabilisation

scheme and some private placement of Government securities

In short the Indian economy is exhibiting strong fundamentals and displaying

considerable resilience At the same time there are continuing signs of demand pressures

especially high credit growth that could exert upward pressure on prices when associated

with supply shocks such as from oil These pressures have the potential for impacting

stability and inflation expectations While domestic developments continue to dominate

the economy global factors tend to gain more attention now than before The global

outlook for growth is positive but downside risks in regard to inflation also RBI is

applying new repo and reverse repo for the balance of inflation and monetary policies

The following are macroeconomic policies generally found as part of government-

directed industrial auto policies

(a) Restrictions on domestic and foreign investment

(b) Domestic content requirements

(c) High tariff walls

(d) Auto export requirements

(e) National production to sales ratios

(f) Distribution controls

(g) Quotas and licensing requirements that significantly restrict imports

(h) Government approval for product related decisions including vehicle make

body type engine size etc

(i) Special government categories for auto taxes

II INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry Today it is

amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output multiplier of

224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy) In recent

32

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

years we have seen increasing number of global players entering Indian market by way of

Joint ventures collaborations or wholly owned subsidiary

The automobile industry is torn between trying to reduce costs on the one hand and on

the other dealing with the high price of performance-enhancing technology and

environmental compliance Key drivers in the automotive industry are

Reducing air pollution

Reduction of weight

Recyclability

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

The automobile market is at the maturity stage of the life cycle locally and globally due

to an increased number of competitors from domestic and foreign markets The

automobile market is characterized by a low potential for market growth but high sales

and profit potential as the products have still not saturated the market as a whole

Opportunities and Threats

a) Opportunities

Road Development The ongoing road development program would improve

connectivity to ports cities and villages through a network of highways and

interconnecting roads by 2010-11 Improved road network would help in faster

34

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

movement of goods between various cities and towns The Company launched TATA

Novus range of vehicles in the heavy segment and TATA ACE for last mile distribution

Car penetration in India Car penetration in India is 7 cars per 1000 persons

International In FY 2006-07 the Company increased share of its overseas vehicle sales

from 76 last year to record high of 111 (as of its total sales) and has planned

further increase in this year

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

PORTERrsquoS MODEL

43

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

SWOT ANALYSIS

STRENGHS

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

Safety

Better performance and engine efficiency

Aesthetics

Longer service Life

INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE

to an increased number of competitors from domestic and foreign markets The

automobile market is characterized by a low potential for market growth but high sales

and profit potential as the products have still not saturated the market as a whole

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

SWOT ANALYSIS

STRENGHS

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3 ANNUAL REPORT

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

78

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

ADVANCEDECLINE LINE The ldquoadvancedecline linerdquo shows for some period the cumulative difference between advancing and declining issues

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 sharesHI-LO-CLOSE CHART A hi-lo-close chart is a bar chart showing for each day the

high price low price and closing price

CANDESTICK CHART A candlestick chart is an extended version of the hi-lo-close chart It plots the high low open and closing prices and also shows whether the closing price was above or below the opening price

POINT AND FIGURE CHARTS Point-and-figure charts are a way of showing only major price moves and their direction A ldquomajorrdquo up move is marked with an ldquoXrdquo while a ldquomajorrdquo down move is marked with an ldquoOrdquo A new column starts every time there is a change in direction

HEAD AND SHOULDERS FORMATION Once a chart is drawn technical analysts examine it for various formations or pattern types in an attempt to predict stock price or market direction in the case of head-and-shoulders formation

ODD-LOT The ldquoodd-lotrdquo indicator looks at whether odd-lot purchases are up or down

HEMLINE Followers of the ldquohemlinerdquo indicator claim that hemlines tend to rise in good times

SUPER BOWL The Super Bowl indicator forecasts the direction of the market based on whether the National Football Conference or the American Football Conference wins

BETA Beta is a risk measure comparing the volatility of a stocks price movement to the general market

MOMENTUM Momentum measures the speed of price change and provides a leading indicator of changes in trend

Opportunities and Threats

a) Opportunities

Road Development The ongoing road development program would improve

connectivity to ports cities and villages through a network of highways and

interconnecting roads by 2010-11 Improved road network would help in faster

34

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

movement of goods between various cities and towns The Company launched TATA

Novus range of vehicles in the heavy segment and TATA ACE for last mile distribution

Car penetration in India Car penetration in India is 7 cars per 1000 persons

International In FY 2006-07 the Company increased share of its overseas vehicle sales

from 76 last year to record high of 111 (as of its total sales) and has planned

further increase in this year

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

PORTERrsquoS MODEL

43

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

SWOT ANALYSIS

STRENGHS

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

COMPANY ANALYSIS

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

78

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

further increase in this year

b) Threats

Global Competition India is increasingly attracting global players to set up

manufacturing facility for producing cars especially small cars Global automobile

manufacturers are also entering India in commercial vehicle segment to leverage Indiarsquos

low cost production advantage to their favor

Fuel Prices The continuing fuel price increase in the domestic market could

significantly impact demand of commercial and passenger vehicles

Input costs Commodity items particularly steel non-ferrous metals rubber and

engineering plastics have witnessed huge price increases in the past These prices are

expected to increase further affecting the Companyrsquos profitability

Interest rate hardening and other inflationary trends With interest rates hardening and

liquidity crunch in the system growth in sales may be adversely impacted

Government Regulations Stringent emission and safety requirements could bring new

complexities for automotive and component manufacturers impacting the Companyrsquos

business

Risks and Concerns

Interest Rates FY 2007-08 started with increasing interest rate regime and tightening

liquidity position in the economy Increasing interest rates could further affect vehicle

demand which could have an adverse impact on the Companyrsquos revenues and profits

Exchange rates The Company exports vehicles to many countries and exchange rate

fluctuations in the order execution period could impact the Companyrsquos business

35

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

PORTERrsquoS MODEL

SWOT ANALYSIS

STRENGHS

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Freight rates In FY 2006-07 freight rates in road transport sector moved up mainly

due to surge in construction activity ongoing road development projects and severe

restriction on over-loading Demand for commercial vehicles could be impacted by

further change in freight rates and change in fuel prices

Domestic market The Company plans to reduce the impact of this cyclicality on its

business by strengthening its less cyclical businesses like buses light trucks small

commercial vehicles

Overseas market In overseas markets the Company competes with global players

which have multiple vehicle platforms large financial capability and global branding

Manufacturing The Company manufactures vehicles at multiple locations and given

the geographical dispersion of its suppliers it faces Logistics Problems

New Competition Competitive activity is expected to increase in commercial vehicle

and passenger vehicle domestic market in coming years

New projects The Company currently is in midst of executing many new projects

ranging from launch of new car platforms to development of new Truck models

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

GLOSSARY

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

PORTERrsquoS MODEL

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

SWOT ANALYSIS

STRENGHS

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3 ANNUAL REPORT

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

78

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

POINT AND FIGURE CHARTS Point-and-figure charts are a way of showing only major price moves and their direction A ldquomajorrdquo up move is marked with an ldquoXrdquo while a ldquomajorrdquo down move is marked with an ldquoOrdquo A new column starts every time there is a change in direction

HEAD AND SHOULDERS FORMATION Once a chart is drawn technical analysts examine it for various formations or pattern types in an attempt to predict stock price or market direction in the case of head-and-shoulders formation

ODD-LOT The ldquoodd-lotrdquo indicator looks at whether odd-lot purchases are up or down

HEMLINE Followers of the ldquohemlinerdquo indicator claim that hemlines tend to rise in good times

SUPER BOWL The Super Bowl indicator forecasts the direction of the market based on whether the National Football Conference or the American Football Conference wins

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3 ANNUAL REPORT

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

GLOSSARY

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 sharesHI-LO-CLOSE CHART A hi-lo-close chart is a bar chart showing for each day the

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

PORTERrsquoS MODEL

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

SWOT ANALYSIS

STRENGHS

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

COMPANY ANALYSIS

The Annual Report is broken down into the following specific parts

A) The Directors ReportB) The Auditors ReportC) The Financial Statements andD) The Schedules and Notes to the AccountsATHE DIRECTORrsquoS REPORTThe Directorrsquos Report is a report submitted by the directors of a company to its shareholders advising them of the performance of the company under their stewardship Fundamental AnalysisB THE AUDITORS REPORTThe auditor represents the shareholders and it is his duty to report to the shareholders and the general public on the stewardship of the company by its directors

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3 ANNUAL REPORT

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

CONCLUSION

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

78

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

ADVANCEDECLINE LINE The ldquoadvancedecline linerdquo shows for some period the cumulative difference between advancing and declining issues

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 sharesHI-LO-CLOSE CHART A hi-lo-close chart is a bar chart showing for each day the

high price low price and closing price

CANDESTICK CHART A candlestick chart is an extended version of the hi-lo-close chart It plots the high low open and closing prices and also shows whether the closing price was above or below the opening price

POINT AND FIGURE CHARTS Point-and-figure charts are a way of showing only major price moves and their direction A ldquomajorrdquo up move is marked with an ldquoXrdquo while a ldquomajorrdquo down move is marked with an ldquoOrdquo A new column starts every time there is a change in direction

HEAD AND SHOULDERS FORMATION Once a chart is drawn technical analysts examine it for various formations or pattern types in an attempt to predict stock price or market direction in the case of head-and-shoulders formation

ODD-LOT The ldquoodd-lotrdquo indicator looks at whether odd-lot purchases are up or down

HEMLINE Followers of the ldquohemlinerdquo indicator claim that hemlines tend to rise in good times

SUPER BOWL The Super Bowl indicator forecasts the direction of the market based on whether the National Football Conference or the American Football Conference wins

BETA Beta is a risk measure comparing the volatility of a stocks price movement to the general market

MOMENTUM Momentum measures the speed of price change and provides a leading indicator of changes in trend

UPSIDEDOWNSIDE Measures of UpsideDownside separate the volumes for rising markets from those in falling markets Since volume is independent of price it makes a valuable tool for measuring the quality of a price trend

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

SWOT ANALYSIS

STRENGHS

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3 ANNUAL REPORT

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

78

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

ADVANCEDECLINE LINE The ldquoadvancedecline linerdquo shows for some period the cumulative difference between advancing and declining issues

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 sharesHI-LO-CLOSE CHART A hi-lo-close chart is a bar chart showing for each day the

high price low price and closing price

CANDESTICK CHART A candlestick chart is an extended version of the hi-lo-close chart It plots the high low open and closing prices and also shows whether the closing price was above or below the opening price

POINT AND FIGURE CHARTS Point-and-figure charts are a way of showing only major price moves and their direction A ldquomajorrdquo up move is marked with an ldquoXrdquo while a ldquomajorrdquo down move is marked with an ldquoOrdquo A new column starts every time there is a change in direction

HEAD AND SHOULDERS FORMATION Once a chart is drawn technical analysts examine it for various formations or pattern types in an attempt to predict stock price or market direction in the case of head-and-shoulders formation

ODD-LOT The ldquoodd-lotrdquo indicator looks at whether odd-lot purchases are up or down

HEMLINE Followers of the ldquohemlinerdquo indicator claim that hemlines tend to rise in good times

SUPER BOWL The Super Bowl indicator forecasts the direction of the market based on whether the National Football Conference or the American Football Conference wins

BETA Beta is a risk measure comparing the volatility of a stocks price movement to the general market

MOMENTUM Momentum measures the speed of price change and provides a leading indicator of changes in trend

UPSIDEDOWNSIDE Measures of UpsideDownside separate the volumes for rising markets from those in falling markets Since volume is independent of price it makes a valuable tool for measuring the quality of a price trend

ARMS INDEX (TRIN) Short term breadth indicator showing whether volume is flowing into advancing or declining issues

2) HPCL

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

SWOT ANALYSIS

STRENGHS

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

78

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

ADVANCEDECLINE LINE The ldquoadvancedecline linerdquo shows for some period the cumulative difference between advancing and declining issues

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 sharesHI-LO-CLOSE CHART A hi-lo-close chart is a bar chart showing for each day the

high price low price and closing price

CANDESTICK CHART A candlestick chart is an extended version of the hi-lo-close chart It plots the high low open and closing prices and also shows whether the closing price was above or below the opening price

POINT AND FIGURE CHARTS Point-and-figure charts are a way of showing only major price moves and their direction A ldquomajorrdquo up move is marked with an ldquoXrdquo while a ldquomajorrdquo down move is marked with an ldquoOrdquo A new column starts every time there is a change in direction

HEAD AND SHOULDERS FORMATION Once a chart is drawn technical analysts examine it for various formations or pattern types in an attempt to predict stock price or market direction in the case of head-and-shoulders formation

ODD-LOT The ldquoodd-lotrdquo indicator looks at whether odd-lot purchases are up or down

HEMLINE Followers of the ldquohemlinerdquo indicator claim that hemlines tend to rise in good times

SUPER BOWL The Super Bowl indicator forecasts the direction of the market based on whether the National Football Conference or the American Football Conference wins

BETA Beta is a risk measure comparing the volatility of a stocks price movement to the general market

MOMENTUM Momentum measures the speed of price change and provides a leading indicator of changes in trend

UPSIDEDOWNSIDE Measures of UpsideDownside separate the volumes for rising markets from those in falling markets Since volume is independent of price it makes a valuable tool for measuring the quality of a price trend

SWING INDEX Is a swing or wave system used to capitalize on breakout patterns ASI is commonly used to confirm trend line breakouts on price charts

ARMS INDEX (TRIN) Short term breadth indicator showing whether volume is flowing into advancing or declining issues

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

STRENGHS

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3 ANNUAL REPORT

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

78

Globalization and the Indian Petroleum Industry

Indian petroleum industry in the post independent period (1947-2001) it may be divided

into three distinct phases

(i) early phase (1947 to 1969)- when the government consolidated its control over

the industry with Soviet assistance

(ii) development phase (1970 to 1989)- in this period the US companies played

dominant role replacing the Soviets and

(iii) the economic liberalisation phase of 1990s

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3 ANNUAL REPORT

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

GLOSSARY

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

WEAKNESSES

Dependence on refining function high

Moderate share in high profitable retail segment

Diversifications in petrochemicals could trouble the company

High burden of subsidy loss on cooking gas and kerosene

OPPORTUNITIES

44

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3 ANNUAL REPORT

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

78

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

ADVANCEDECLINE LINE The ldquoadvancedecline linerdquo shows for some period the cumulative difference between advancing and declining issues

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 sharesHI-LO-CLOSE CHART A hi-lo-close chart is a bar chart showing for each day the

high price low price and closing price

CANDESTICK CHART A candlestick chart is an extended version of the hi-lo-close chart It plots the high low open and closing prices and also shows whether the closing price was above or below the opening price

POINT AND FIGURE CHARTS Point-and-figure charts are a way of showing only major price moves and their direction A ldquomajorrdquo up move is marked with an ldquoXrdquo while a ldquomajorrdquo down move is marked with an ldquoOrdquo A new column starts every time there is a change in direction

HEAD AND SHOULDERS FORMATION Once a chart is drawn technical analysts examine it for various formations or pattern types in an attempt to predict stock price or market direction in the case of head-and-shoulders formation

ODD-LOT The ldquoodd-lotrdquo indicator looks at whether odd-lot purchases are up or down

HEMLINE Followers of the ldquohemlinerdquo indicator claim that hemlines tend to rise in good times

SUPER BOWL The Super Bowl indicator forecasts the direction of the market based on whether the National Football Conference or the American Football Conference wins

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

THREATS

Rising oil prices could dampen demand

High regulatory risk

Loss of market share to private players

Entrance of private players in pipelines will take away monopoly of company in

north India

1 THE MANAGEMENT

45

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3 ANNUAL REPORT

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

78

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

ADVANCEDECLINE LINE The ldquoadvancedecline linerdquo shows for some period the cumulative difference between advancing and declining issues

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 sharesHI-LO-CLOSE CHART A hi-lo-close chart is a bar chart showing for each day the

high price low price and closing price

CANDESTICK CHART A candlestick chart is an extended version of the hi-lo-close chart It plots the high low open and closing prices and also shows whether the closing price was above or below the opening price

POINT AND FIGURE CHARTS Point-and-figure charts are a way of showing only major price moves and their direction A ldquomajorrdquo up move is marked with an ldquoXrdquo while a ldquomajorrdquo down move is marked with an ldquoOrdquo A new column starts every time there is a change in direction

HEAD AND SHOULDERS FORMATION Once a chart is drawn technical analysts examine it for various formations or pattern types in an attempt to predict stock price or market direction in the case of head-and-shoulders formation

ODD-LOT The ldquoodd-lotrdquo indicator looks at whether odd-lot purchases are up or down

HEMLINE Followers of the ldquohemlinerdquo indicator claim that hemlines tend to rise in good times

SUPER BOWL The Super Bowl indicator forecasts the direction of the market based on whether the National Football Conference or the American Football Conference wins

BETA Beta is a risk measure comparing the volatility of a stocks price movement to the general market

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

HPCL is a public sector undertaking Thus it is a professionally managed company

There are some parameters of management on which a company is analysed

a integrity of management

b past record of management

c how highly is the management rated by its peers in the same industry

d how the management fares in adversity

e the depth of the knowledge of management

f open and innovative management

on all these parameters HPCL scores good

2 COMPANY

Many times a company has made losses in the previous years but that does not mean

that the company is bad to invest Thus many factors are studied while studying a

company

a) perception of competitors

HPCL is the second largest petroleum company after IOCL Thus it is a competitor of

IOCL and it is trying hard to compete with IOCL on every front That is why now it

has decided to diversify itself in the oil exploration sector

b) company policies

As this is a PSU thus the policies are made by the government The oil sector is one

which is highly regulated by government Thus from time to time it is required to

watch out the various policies changed

3 ANNUAL REPORT

The most primary and most important source of information about a company is its

Annual Report This is prepared every year and distributed to its shareholders

Hence we see that here our g is less than k Thus we see that as per Dividend Discount Model our Intrinsic value is div=22(1+012)=240626= 387

Price= Projected EPS + Weighted PE ratioUsing CAGR EPS = 43468Weighted PE Ratio = 75+6652=33625

Price = 43468+33625 = 381

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

78

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

ADVANCEDECLINE LINE The ldquoadvancedecline linerdquo shows for some period the cumulative difference between advancing and declining issues

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 sharesHI-LO-CLOSE CHART A hi-lo-close chart is a bar chart showing for each day the

high price low price and closing price

CANDESTICK CHART A candlestick chart is an extended version of the hi-lo-close chart It plots the high low open and closing prices and also shows whether the closing price was above or below the opening price

POINT AND FIGURE CHARTS Point-and-figure charts are a way of showing only major price moves and their direction A ldquomajorrdquo up move is marked with an ldquoXrdquo while a ldquomajorrdquo down move is marked with an ldquoOrdquo A new column starts every time there is a change in direction

HEAD AND SHOULDERS FORMATION Once a chart is drawn technical analysts examine it for various formations or pattern types in an attempt to predict stock price or market direction in the case of head-and-shoulders formation

ODD-LOT The ldquoodd-lotrdquo indicator looks at whether odd-lot purchases are up or down

HEMLINE Followers of the ldquohemlinerdquo indicator claim that hemlines tend to rise in good times

SUPER BOWL The Super Bowl indicator forecasts the direction of the market based on whether the National Football Conference or the American Football Conference wins

BETA Beta is a risk measure comparing the volatility of a stocks price movement to the general market

MOMENTUM Momentum measures the speed of price change and provides a leading indicator of changes in trend

UPSIDEDOWNSIDE Measures of UpsideDownside separate the volumes for rising markets from those in falling markets Since volume is independent of price it makes a valuable tool for measuring the quality of a price trend

SWING INDEX Is a swing or wave system used to capitalize on breakout patterns ASI is commonly used to confirm trend line breakouts on price charts

ARMS INDEX (TRIN) Short term breadth indicator showing whether volume is flowing into advancing or declining issues

3) HDFC BANK

The Indian banking industry sector overview

With the economic growth picking up pace and the investment cycle on the way to recovery the banking sector has witnessed a transformation in its vital role of intermediating between the demand and supply of funds

Public sector banks have been very proactive in their restructuring initiatives be it in technology implementation or pruning their loss assets Windfall treasury gains made in the falling interest rate regime were used for writing off the doubtful and loss assets

Retail lending (especially mortgage financing) formed a significant portion of the portfolio for most banks and they customized their products to cater to the diverse demands

Apart from streamlining their processes through technology initiatives such as ATMs telephone banking online banking and web based products banks also resorted to cross selling of financial products such as credit cards mutual funds and insurance policies to augment their fee based income

PORTERrsquoS FIVE FORCES MODEL FOR THE BANKING INDUSTRY

1) BARRIERS TO ENTRY a Economies of scale Since the existing players in the market are well

established and already have a customer base they are able to bear the cost of using the advantages of technology to their maximum advantage

b Capital requirement for entry

48

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

i The Banking Regulation Act prescribes the minimum capital requirements for a bank Moreover banks have to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of 9 under the Basel I norms

ii Government has declared that the foreign banks will be permitted to establish their presence in India by way of setting up a wholly owned banking subsidiary (WOS) with a minimum capital of Rs300 crore

c Access to distribution channels Since banks have to set up their own distribution channels all the cost has to be directly born by them

d Cost advantage independent of size Existing banks have huge databases of customers which they use when they want to sell a new product launched by them

e Legislation or Government action Banks are governed by Banking Regulation Act 1949 which specifies the rules and regulations applicable to banks RBI is the governing body of banks in India

2) BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

Due to increased competition the services offered by banks to customers have improved considerably

3) BARGAINING POWER OF THE SUPPLIERS

Suppliers to banks can be both - the customers and RBIa Customers of banks provide money to banks in the form of deposits and in

return earn some interest on that b RBI acts as a supplier to banks by selling govt securities treasury bills

govt bonds etc c Call money market Banks sometimes have to borrow from other banks to

meet CRR and SLR requirements or other capital requirements as provided by RBI

4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES

a Product-for-product substitutioni Banks provide interest on deposits made by people Similar

services are offered by post offices which may act as substitutes to the deposit schemes of banks

ii Some banks offer locker services to customers for yearly rates Similar services are provided by many post offices

49

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

b Generic substitution People who deposit their savings in banks can invest their money in other sources like mutual funds shares and other securities and life insurance schemes

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

50

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

CONCLUSION

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

78

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

ADVANCEDECLINE LINE The ldquoadvancedecline linerdquo shows for some period the cumulative difference between advancing and declining issues

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 sharesHI-LO-CLOSE CHART A hi-lo-close chart is a bar chart showing for each day the

high price low price and closing price

CANDESTICK CHART A candlestick chart is an extended version of the hi-lo-close chart It plots the high low open and closing prices and also shows whether the closing price was above or below the opening price

POINT AND FIGURE CHARTS Point-and-figure charts are a way of showing only major price moves and their direction A ldquomajorrdquo up move is marked with an ldquoXrdquo while a ldquomajorrdquo down move is marked with an ldquoOrdquo A new column starts every time there is a change in direction

HEAD AND SHOULDERS FORMATION Once a chart is drawn technical analysts examine it for various formations or pattern types in an attempt to predict stock price or market direction in the case of head-and-shoulders formation

ODD-LOT The ldquoodd-lotrdquo indicator looks at whether odd-lot purchases are up or down

HEMLINE Followers of the ldquohemlinerdquo indicator claim that hemlines tend to rise in good times

SUPER BOWL The Super Bowl indicator forecasts the direction of the market based on whether the National Football Conference or the American Football Conference wins

BETA Beta is a risk measure comparing the volatility of a stocks price movement to the general market

MOMENTUM Momentum measures the speed of price change and provides a leading indicator of changes in trend

5) COMPETITIVE RIVALRY

a Extent of competitor balance b Market growth ratesc High Exit Barriers

PEST Analysis for Banking Industry

1 Political factors - The major factors affecting the banking sector are the following

Banking sector reforms ndash As per the RBI roadmap for reforms in the first stage from 2005 to 2009 foreign banks will be allowed to set up wholly owned subsidiaries as well as get greater freedom to set up new branches Fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit -The government mandation of fulfilling the minimum priority sector credit (of which 18 per cent is food credit) has forced the domestic banks to cater to this segment despite the low profitability and vulnerability of asset quality

Banks have also been allowed to set up Offshore Banking Units in SEZrsquos

2 Economic factors -

Basell II norms for the risk management in banking sector - The new Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars The first pillar is compatible with the credit risk market risk and operational risk The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways to manage the risk specific to that bankConcurrently it also casts responsibility on the supervisors to review and validate banksrsquo risk measurement models

Consolidation and merger and acquisitions in the banking sector- HDFC bank also acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3 lakh customers

Universal Banking has been introduced ICICI Bank HDFCs closest competitor is already into Universal Banking so HDFC is also getting into it as now it is providing retail banking and also depository facilities in the form of demat account

3 Social factors-

Big and growing middle class in India - This has been a major factor in the growth of the retail loans like consumer loans in the form of home loans car loans education loans auto loans etc Retail loans have grown from 19 in FYrsquo99 to 51 FYrsquo06Consumer credit accounts for a meager 286 per cent of the countrys GDP and the buoyancy in the economy offers sufficient scope for it to grow

Geographical and Cultural diversity- This is leading to a greater demand for financial products and customization by the customers

4 Technical factors-

The Indian Financial Network (INFINET) was inaugurated in June 1999 It is based on satellite communication using VSAT technology and would enable faster connectivity within the financial sector

Banks (All) No of players = 40

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

78

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

GLOSSARY

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

CHAPTER-6

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

CHAPTER-6

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

ODD-LOT The ldquoodd-lotrdquo indicator looks at whether odd-lot purchases are up or down

HEMLINE Followers of the ldquohemlinerdquo indicator claim that hemlines tend to rise in good times

SUPER BOWL The Super Bowl indicator forecasts the direction of the market based on whether the National Football Conference or the American Football Conference wins

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

GLOSSARY

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

78

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

ADVANCEDECLINE LINE The ldquoadvancedecline linerdquo shows for some period the cumulative difference between advancing and declining issues

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 sharesHI-LO-CLOSE CHART A hi-lo-close chart is a bar chart showing for each day the

high price low price and closing price

CANDESTICK CHART A candlestick chart is an extended version of the hi-lo-close chart It plots the high low open and closing prices and also shows whether the closing price was above or below the opening price

POINT AND FIGURE CHARTS Point-and-figure charts are a way of showing only major price moves and their direction A ldquomajorrdquo up move is marked with an ldquoXrdquo while a ldquomajorrdquo down move is marked with an ldquoOrdquo A new column starts every time there is a change in direction

HEAD AND SHOULDERS FORMATION Once a chart is drawn technical analysts examine it for various formations or pattern types in an attempt to predict stock price or market direction in the case of head-and-shoulders formation

ODD-LOT The ldquoodd-lotrdquo indicator looks at whether odd-lot purchases are up or down

HEMLINE Followers of the ldquohemlinerdquo indicator claim that hemlines tend to rise in good times

SUPER BOWL The Super Bowl indicator forecasts the direction of the market based on whether the National Football Conference or the American Football Conference wins

BETA Beta is a risk measure comparing the volatility of a stocks price movement to the general market

MOMENTUM Momentum measures the speed of price change and provides a leading indicator of changes in trend

UPSIDEDOWNSIDE Measures of UpsideDownside separate the volumes for rising markets from those in falling markets Since volume is independent of price it makes a valuable tool for measuring the quality of a price trend

SWING INDEX Is a swing or wave system used to capitalize on breakout patterns ASI is commonly used to confirm trend line breakouts on price charts

ARMS INDEX (TRIN) Short term breadth indicator showing whether volume is flowing into advancing or declining issues

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

78

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CLOSING TICK ldquoClosing tickrdquo is the difference between the number of shares that closed on an uptick and those that closed on a downtick

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 sharesHI-LO-CLOSE CHART A hi-lo-close chart is a bar chart showing for each day the

high price low price and closing price

POINT AND FIGURE CHARTS Point-and-figure charts are a way of showing only major price moves and their direction A ldquomajorrdquo up move is marked with an ldquoXrdquo while a ldquomajorrdquo down move is marked with an ldquoOrdquo A new column starts every time there is a change in direction

HEAD AND SHOULDERS FORMATION Once a chart is drawn technical analysts examine it for various formations or pattern types in an attempt to predict stock price or market direction in the case of head-and-shoulders formation

ODD-LOT The ldquoodd-lotrdquo indicator looks at whether odd-lot purchases are up or down

HEMLINE Followers of the ldquohemlinerdquo indicator claim that hemlines tend to rise in good times

SUPER BOWL The Super Bowl indicator forecasts the direction of the market based on whether the National Football Conference or the American Football Conference wins

CONCLUSION

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

78

CLOSING ARMS ldquoClosing armsrdquo or ldquotrinrdquo (trading index) is the ratio of average trading volume in declining issues to average trading volume in advancing issues

Z-BLOCK TRADES ldquozBlock tradesrdquo are trades in excess of 10000 sharesHI-LO-CLOSE CHART A hi-lo-close chart is a bar chart showing for each day the

high price low price and closing price

CANDESTICK CHART A candlestick chart is an extended version of the hi-lo-close chart It plots the high low open and closing prices and also shows whether the closing price was above or below the opening price

POINT AND FIGURE CHARTS Point-and-figure charts are a way of showing only major price moves and their direction A ldquomajorrdquo up move is marked with an ldquoXrdquo while a ldquomajorrdquo down move is marked with an ldquoOrdquo A new column starts every time there is a change in direction

HEAD AND SHOULDERS FORMATION Once a chart is drawn technical analysts examine it for various formations or pattern types in an attempt to predict stock price or market direction in the case of head-and-shoulders formation

HEMLINE Followers of the ldquohemlinerdquo indicator claim that hemlines tend to rise in good times

SUPER BOWL The Super Bowl indicator forecasts the direction of the market based on whether the National Football Conference or the American Football Conference wins

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

GLOSSARY

SECURITY ANALYSIS stands for the proposition that a well-disciplined investor can determine a rough value for a company from all of its financial statements make purchases when the market inevitably under-prices some of them earn a satisfactory return and never be in real danger of permanent loss

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS is the analysis of a stock on the basis of core financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stocks price

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS is the study of prices and volume for forecasting of future stock price or financial price movements

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)

MOVING AVERAGE A moving average is the average price of a financial instrument

over a given time RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX The Relative Strength Index Technical Indicator

(RSI) is a price-following oscillator that ranges between 0 and 100

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

LIMITATIONS

Like all studies based on samples this study also suffers from some limitations

1 As the study depends on human perceptions so there are chances of study getting biased2 Error due to some oversight or misinterpretation3 The scope of study was limited due to some constraints4 Any other error which could have crept in the course of the Project

CONCLUSION

73

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

CONCLUSION

RECOMMENDATIONS

1) ACC- At current price it is not advisable to buy the stock Reasons for not

buying the stock

The stock is currently trading above all the important trading moving averages

The moving average crossover of 13 days amp 40 days is observed on 22nd Dec

2006 triggering price trend reversal and buy at current levels

The stock is trading with lack luster volumes Volumes should ideally expand for the advance to gather steam

2) INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES- At current market price its advisable to buy the share Reasons

The stock is currently trading below all the important moving averages

The stock is trading with good volumes Volumes are ideal and are set to gather further steam

3) TATA MOTORS- At current market price we should buy the share because of the

following reasons

Since 1991 opening of the economy has changed the face of auto industry

Today it is amongst the main drivers of growth of Indian economy with an output

multiplier of 224(for every Re1 invested auto sector gives back Rs224 to the economy)

Tremendous Growth -Tata Motors has decided to enter into a 50-50 JV with Fiat

at Pune for manufacturing passenger vehicles engines and transmissions for both domestic and international markets The Company has also entered into a JV with Hitachi to set up a new plant in Kharagpur

74

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

4) HPCL

Strengths

Favourable production ndash sale mix

Entry on petrochemicals and gas sector will reduce dependence on RampM sector

Second largest refining capacity and pipeline infrastructure in the industry

Good presence in high demand regions of west and north India

Growth potential

Per capita energy consumption low in country

Deficiency of coal will benefit oil and gas sector

Growing domestic market for gas

Overseas presence in upstream and downstream will determine growth

5) HDFC BANK Growing stock and its advisable to invest in this stock for long term

HDFC bank acquired TIMES BANK in 2001 which increased its customer base by 3

lakh customers

Growth in net revenues of 422 Net profit up by 32 Total customer asset increased by 449

6) JET AIRWAYS We should not invest in the stock because of the following reasons

ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) prices and airport charges in India are among the highest in the world

Regulatory and infrastructure bottlenecks have prevented accelerated growth in the industry

6) RELIANCE INDUSTRIES Good stock for any Portfolio

Very high GRM thus it will continue to produce Positive Cash Flow

Charts show good volume with positive uptrend

75

TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS OF SECURITIES

8) STATE BANK OF INDIA Should be Sold

Due to tight monetary policies it will remain under pressure

Very low volumes plus twenty day moving average both indicate that it should not be held

10)MARUTI UDYOG Can be held

Being market leader it has best chances but high input costs are putting pressure on margins plus rising interest costs are going against the stock

It has taken a sharp run in the last rally and now there is a dip in the volumes in the past

11)RANBAXY PHARMACEUTICALS Should be bought

Due to latest permission from USFDA FOR 180 Day exclusive marketing rights for its Diabetees molecule

Its participation in the last rally was not very significant but this USFDA news it appears is acting as a trigger

Volumes are increasing so it appears there is a upside left to this stock

12)MAHINDRA amp MAHINDRA Should be held

In the auto pack it is one of the companies which can bear the rising input cost plus higher interest rates

Twenty day moving average plus it is around a very strong support so it seems that it can show a rally

DOW JONES THEORY The Dow theory is a method of interpreting and signaling changes in the stock market direction based on the monitoring of the Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages

ELLIOT WAVES BASICS Breaking through support or resistance levels results in a change of tradersrsquo expectations

SUPPORT Support is a level at which bulls (ie buyers) take control over the prices and prevent them from falling lower

RESISTANCE is the point at which sellers (bears) take control of prices and prevent them from rising higher

ROLE REVERSAL When a resistance level is successfully broken through that level becomes a support level Similarly when a support level is successfully broken through that level becomes a resistance level

BULL TREND The start of an up trend is signaled when price makes a higher low (trough) followed by a rally above the previous high (peak)

BEAR TREND when a rally ends with a lower peak and then retreats below the previous low The end of a bear trend is identical to the start of a bull trend

LARGE CORRECTION A large correction occurs when price falls below the previous low (during a bull trend) or where price rises above the previous high (in a bear trend)
