I have read the BSE clarification provided by Cupid yesterday night and thought to myself, Mr. Garg, do not worry, this is called market re-rating. Typically re-rating will be ferocious and will be over even before people realise. This re-rating was expected after the Q2 results were announced as indicated in my earlier post that several factors are improving in company’s favour.
- Re-rating is the way market recognises all the hard work the promoters have been putting in consistently and then rewards you with higher market cap.
- While the re-rating is in progress, short term players looking for quick buck will come in, typically when most of the re-rating is underway and push the stock prices up. A little bit of bad always comes with good. Long term holders must realise this and build positions based on their conviction.
- I felt pleasantly surprised that Cupid has released a statement to BSE by themselves and before exchanges probed. Very good touch.
- Any further earnings visibility and market will start discounting 1 year ahead earnings as well.
- For the re-rating to sustain, earnings visibility, promoter integrity, growth with margins oriented focus and shareholder friendliness are the pillars and I believe Cupid has these qualities.
- Cupid’s Tagline, at least for African nations, should be, “Cometh the hour cometh the company!”
Disclosure: I hold Cupid and I’m biased.
