Dear Value Pick
ReplyDeleteThank you very much for your recommendations. May I seek your coveted opinion on JINDAL POLY FILMS? I hold 410 shares of this company at an average rate of Rs.300/-
Regards,
Aravind
End product price is fluctuating sharply in past few months
Deleteit seems over price compared to other.
ReplyDeleteDear ValuePick,
ReplyDeleteWhat is the average PE for the auto ancillary industry? I checked the BSE website but it listed Bosch and a couple of other companies that I am not sure can be used as the benchmarks.
Thanks,
RN
Value pick sir
ReplyDeletewhy have you deleted the comment of one mr mohit kaushal if i remember correctly who rightly pointed that the share has already moved from 40 to 80 quiet recently?
you are far above all this i thought?
None of the published comments deleted
DeleteTasty Bite: depends on results of Q4, now huge loss (PP: 149)
ReplyDeleteAries Agro: No takers (PP: 98)
Claris Life: Back to Square One (PP: 190)
NBCC: Not moving (PP: 96)
This is the plight of my portfolio :(
I bought all of them, on or below your recommendation price (PP: Purchase Price). Please advice.
It seems your are selecting some stocks from the whole lot just for criticizing my postings.I have recommended Tasty Bite on February 27,2010 @Rs.165.Thereafter in 6 months ,ie, in July , It hits a high of Rs 346/-. This means an appreciation of more than 100% in just 4 months.I have never recommended it as a BUY after 4th quarter result of this FY as mentioned by you.
DeleteIn the case of Aries Agro - even if it once touched Rs.206 after my first recommendation @ Rs.100/-I have recommended it later at higher level and it is really an under performing case.
Claris recommended in this month @ Rs.158 and now trading @ 187/- ( last year claris mentioned to points out the importance of management quality in getting higher valuations)
NBCC - Recommended only last week ,don't consider it as a place providing 'Tips'.This is just meant for only investors who are willing to do some homework
I am sorry but I did not mean any offence. These are stocks in my portfolio running in little bit loss and not just to criticise you. However I am a regular to your blogsite and very much grateful to you.
DeleteThanks a lot

DeleteHello Sir,
ReplyDeleteWhat's the take on Avanti Feeds presently. Unfortunately, I bought it at a very high price of Rs 150/. Willing too hold it for a year (till Sep '12)
Thanks a lot,
Bhupesh
Dear Bhupesh
DeleteAvanti's business is seasonal and generally first two quarters are good.
Hi,
ReplyDeleteI also entered the couner when it was recommended here and made a profit of 25000/- in a span of one month. And reentered the same at rs 120, but did not feel comfortable with the co, immediately came out by booking loss of 15000/-. I am simply sharing personal view only. Regards Rama Mohana rao
Dear Value pick Sir,
ReplyDeleteNitta was another great pick.
Bharat Gear-this is the only stock which has fallen post your recommendation ( may be due to the recent market churn).
Would you suggest remaining invested in Bharat gears ?
Also for Schneider, can I make fresh positions now?

Sales rose 28.30% to Rs 424.05 crore in the year ended March 2012 as against Rs 330.51 crore during the previous year ended March 2011.

Whats going on here ... significantly down after June 2012 result ?
ReplyDeleteHi sir,
ReplyDeleteAs per your recommendation i have purchased bharat gears at Rs 80/- per share. Right now the stock is trading at 65/-. Should i hold this stock?
