Investing Basics – Feel free to ask the most basic questions (27-10-2023)
Thanks @royatirek for the response. I usually see companies revenue & margin to check if the company/sector is cyclical or not. Please see below charts for steel and paper industry (vertical bars depict revenue while line chart shows net profit margin).
For tata steel, while, revenue’s are increasing but margins are fluctuating, hence yes, it is cyclical.
However, see below chart for JK paper
I see both revenues and margins growing consistently. Should we still consider this as cyclical?

In typical cyclical industry P/E
When the EPS is high, then the P/E becomes less but the high EPS is not sustainable hence the PE rerating does not happen in case of cyclical industry. Eg – J K paper
When the EPS is low(earning destroys), then the P/E becomes high(It is not due to rerating of PE).
Eg – Tata Steel
Everything is cyclical but paper and steel are deeply cyclical.
Cement is not too much cyclical.
Kovai Medical Center and Hospital – Health and Wealth (27-10-2023)
Kovai has experienced the biggest activity in the last year, with 59,000 shares traded on the BSE today and 90% delivery. Part of this could be because of the fact that shares are temporarily banned on the NSE platform (for unknown reasons)… still average trading volumes seems higher even on on combined (NSE+BSE) basis. Further, share closed up at 5%…
Any technical analyst tracking this stock, please guide how to interpret this.

While studying a paper company, I observed that paper industry is one of the cheapest sector currently (P/E of 5 to 6). In past too, sector usually traded cheap at average P/E of 7 to 8. While I understand this is cyclical industry but so is steel or cement (& in my view cyclicality in steel is much more than paper) but still they trade at relatively higher multiple. Could someone please guide how to interpret this?
Why not leave it to the experts? (27-10-2023)
Interesting topic:
Investing directly in stocks is no more about returns after you have been in markets for sometime and have done decently (not lagged index).
- Direct stock investing grows on you. It gives you some sense of purpose.
- Your stock selection begins to reflect your personality.
- You tend to think as a part owner of businesses.
- You begin to delve deeper into technological and socio-economical trends. It’s an intellectual pursuit.
- You don’t mind short term under-performance and won’t give up this pursuit for a 1-2% higher return.
Dreamfolks services limited( DFS) (27-10-2023)
I couldnt attend the call, but from the Q2 numbers it seems that the gross margin is back near to 15% (13.7% to be exact), does it mean that the mgmt has renegotiated the contracts with the banks? Did the management mention any thing on this?
