Hot Pick: FCS Software Solutions Ltd. Bse: 532666

Friends, I'm happy that my last three buy calls have all more than doubled in the last couple of months. While the index stocks (the big caps) have rallied a lot after the elections, there is a lot of value in the Mid-Small caps. One such stock is FCS Software which is a dividend paying company, giving consistent results over a period of time. The promoters hold a good 67.92 % in the company which should give confidence to the other shareholders. The nine months EPS of the company is already Rs.16 and the fourth quarter results will be out by the end of June. The stock is grossly undervalued at current price of 46 and is trading at a PE of less than 3. Investors can buy this stock at current price.

Cheers!

Panic bottom signals a trend change?

Lehmann Bros. filed for bankruptcy today and the global markets have tumbled. The Indian markets are no exception. The price of crude is now below $ 100, yet our markets have not rallied. The reason for that is the unusually fast depreciation of the Indian Rupee against the US Dollar. The USD has risen from Rs. 40 to Rs. 46 in just a few months. The rise has been very sharp since the day Derivatives trading in Forex was launched in India. So such a sharp move in the USD-Indian Rupee exchange rate was sort of expected on the back of heavy speculation. The rise of the dollar against the rupee has almost nullified the fall in Crude Oil price.

But such bankruptcies in the US financials can actually be good news for the markets, in the sense that all the bad news is finally getting out in the open. Also consider the fact that the bell weather stock of India, Reliance Industries has finally taken a pounding. During the entire bear market phase of 2008, RIL was the last man standing coz it hadn't fallen much as compared to the mid-caps. It was sort of holding the fort above Rs. 2000 levels. But today it has broken down to a low of Rs.1832. To my mind, this is a sure sign that we are finally close to a trend change and the end of the extended bear phase. RIL will soon form its bottom and then usher in a rally for the Diwali-Christmas season. Most of the midcap stocks may have bottomed out already and it makes sense to go out and buy such beaten down value stocks in bulk. I think we are on track for a rally around Diwali which could last upto Christmas. So keep your shopping list ready.

Cheers!

Are we getting ready for Diwali Fireworks?

The first eight months of 2008 have been quite dismal for stock market investors. But with crude oil coming down to $109 levels there is a ray of hope. As explained in one of my earlier blogs, since the beginning of this year, money flowed from the equity markets to Crude and other select commodities like Gold. It seems that the cycle is now turning in favor of the equity markets. If crude goes below $100, the Nifty will climb above 5000 effortlessly. And if it goes below $80, we can expect to see fireworks! FIIs are coming back into the Indian markets and the rate of inflation is likely to peak out (or has already peaked out) soon.

The IPO market is also seeing a revival with Resurgere Mines & Minerals India Ltd doubling on the first day of listing. Another IPO is being listed today which is AUSTRAL COKE & PROJECTS LIMITED. This is a group company of Gremach Infrastructure Equipments & Projects Ltd and a positive listing of Austral Coke today will have a great positive impact on the share price of Gremach Infra also.

Cheers!

Hot Stock Ideas

Ok. The markets have played out exactly like I had previously opined. Crude Oil has come down to $ 120s again and I reckon it could go lower. That can only mean good news for the Indian Stock Market. The political uncertainty is also out of the way with Manmohan Singh's govt. winning the Trust vote. Mars is leaving Saturn on 10th August. Time to buy.

I have been receiving repeated requests about suggesting some stocks for investment now. Here are a few of my Top Picks:

1. GREMACH INFRA (BSE CODE : 532836) - This stock used to be the darling of the markets just six months ago. Having seen highs of over Rs. 500, this share is now trading at a mere Rs. 88. The diluted EPS for FY 2007-2008 was Rs. 23.74, which means this once highly rated Infrastructure stock is trading at a PE of just 3.7. I will buy this stock.

2. GODAWARI POWER & ISPAT LTD (GPIL) : This stock has come out with a stellar performance in the 1st quarter, despite the slowdown in the rest of the market. It posted a diluted EPS of Rs. 13.09 in the June qtr. With an expected annualized EPS of Rs. 55, and cmp of just Rs. 204, this super stock is trading at a PE of a mere 3.7. I will buy this stock.

3. CREW BOS : This stock has a one year high of Rs. 163, and currently available at a throw away price of just Rs. 33. Having posted a diluted EPS of Rs. 2.4, with an annualized EPS of Rs. 10, this stock is trading at a PE of a mere 3.3. I will buy this stock.

Cheers !
