Please explain.

ReplyDeleteCan you please provide your view on PHOTOQUIP India. I was purchase @ 50, now trading around 40. Can I hold for long term ?
ReplyDeleteWhat is your view on the upcoming MCX IPO?
ReplyDeleteDear Nalajala
ReplyDeleteNot tracking Photoequip
Apply for MCX at cut off.
ReplyDeleteDear Valuepick,
DeleteI could not understand the logic of recommending MCX. Normally if company require money to expand they go for IPO. In this case this is not happening, some promotors are selling their stake. At any rate they have much better information then us about MCX. Why a promotor should sell their stake, if it is a good stock for long term. Is there any rationale that you have considered?
Dear Sandeep
DeleteWhat is wrong in taking profit ?.A trade takes place only when there is two sets of people one pessimist and one with optimism.Many Big investors bought shares as Anchor investors , can we say they are fools and the selling people is only wise ? .If that is the logic , what about the public issues of many PSU companies where govt is selling their stakes.?
Dear Valuepick,
DeleteGovt sell their stake to raise money to invest in business that give better return. They require these funds for achieving their Fiscal deficit targets too. I think it was the case of sheer optimism that IPO was subscribed 54x. Do not you think companies can take the advantage of such optimism to sell their stake.
My point was if one promoter such as financial technologies know much about MCX and its future prospects. Why would they sell their stake, if they know that this is still going to give good return.
Dear VP,
ReplyDeleteYou mean MCX ipo at lower price band or upper.
Regards
Jagat
Dear jagat
ReplyDeleteCut off means the rate at which company allotting the shares, whatever it may be.In that case practically which is equal to applying at upper price band.
