Heavy Electrical Equipment sector, bird's eye view :

Quantitative view : Top 5 companies take away 90% of the market capitalization of the entire sector.

We'll have to narrow down our qualitative search to these 5 companies and ignore the rest.
Return ratios and company health (debt burden) shows that despite Adani having highest market cap, it has poor ICR, indicating heavy debt.

Siemens has 0 debt and an ICR of 150. This is indicative of a very healthy balance sheet.

Siemens : 1
Rest : 0
Inferences :

Adani has highest market cap but :

BHEL has the highest sales
Siemens has second highest sales
BHEL and Siemens has highest profit

Adani's profit, compared to the rich valuation is too LOW, signaling an overvaluation bubble in Adani.
Growth rate analysis suggests that Adani has the fastest rate of growth (potentially why the market is giving it rich valuations).
Profit ratios show that

Triveni Turbine has highest NPM in the sector
Voltamp has highest ICR (i.e profit/debt)

But both are miniscule players. Ignore them

Adani has highest debt (red flag)
Siemens (ICR) : annual profit is 150x times debt.

Massive green flag for Siemens.
Siemens has highest ROE in the sector, indicating that the management is able to churn out big profits today (1000Cr) from relatively smaller startup capital of 71Cr Vs Adani, which is making ONLY 68Crs profit today from a massive startup capital of 1500Cr.
Final verdict: The heavy electrical sector as a whole runs on wafer thin margins of 3-4%. It is a capital intensive sector commanding huge turnover but miniscule profits. 90% are in debt.

Siemens is good company, from a bad sector. This will become a 🚀if the sector turns around

Profit trends suggest that it has been in a 10Y stagnation

Any breakout from here will start a multi-year rally.
Raw materials constitute 70% of its operating costs.

Any breakout/breakdown depends more on raw material price cycle rather than sales/demand growth.

If copper becomes cheaper, Siemens will capitalize on it. Conversely, if Copper becomes costly, the consolidation will continue.

#Schaeffler valuation

2018 quarterly sales (1100/ QTR)
2020 Corona quarter (430/ QTR)
Current quarter (1100/ QTR)

Sales, profit margin, EPS, all have recovered to previous glory. CMP's languishing because the crowd is busy chasing momentum in Pharma. Potential turnaround story.
DCF valuation.

2030 projected EPS at 14.6% discount rate= 960rs/share

2030 CMP= 960 x median PE(20): 19,200
Potential risks: Revenues (B2B) come from industrials & automobile sector. Both are cyclical in nature and rely on other cyclical factors like steel prices and interest rates.

All alpha comes from buying at the bottom & riding till tailwinds last. Keep <3% exposure in portfolio.

Don't let the crowd's madness clout your judgment.

At any point, 40% up/down is speculative froth from momentum chasers. On the first -10% correction, the speculators all jump off the ship and the stock falls another 30%. 1-2-3 provides cleaner entry point for real investors.
@Goldsmithgunner

Fundamentals aside, #3MIndia was available at 15.8k & 23k in a short time span. 46% price difference due to crowd behavior.

21k is still a good price. This will become apparent at 26k. THEN brokerages will invite people giving 29k target celebrating 10% upside.
Some big institutional buyer has punched in a massive buy volume of 55,000 stocks on Dec 1,2, at 21k. He also knows that PE is 144, still he's buying with confidence. And retail investors are busy trying to outsmart destiny by buying cheap stocks because Warren chacha said so.
