Table of small-cap earnings yield as measured by their cash flow from operations divided by enterprise value and g-sec below. The difference between earnings yields and g sec has been negative for 11 out of 19 observations. (1/9)
9 out of these 11 observations, the small-cap index has returned negative the following financial year. True to this, FY23 so far has been negative 17%. It is unlikely that we see a runaway rally in small-cap index with such a huge negative differential between earnings & gsec
Even if gsec yields were to come down to Mar 2004 levels of 5.1%, we will still have a negative differential with current small-cap earnings yield of 4.8%.

Natural Gas prices are soaring. Logistical issues, delay in capacity expansion due to covid, decline in storage capacity etc are reasons attributed to this. However these are only temporary. Structural reasons differ. (1/4)
Coal plants are being retired. Nuclear continues to demonized. Wind and Solar are unreliable and intermittent. They are like drunkards who need the support of a pole (Natural Gas) to stand. (2/4)
As countries add more drunkards, it increases the demand for poles. And what is worse? Places where sun shines the most and wind blows the strongest (best renewable spots) are already taken. Therefore location advantage becomes marginal. (3/4)

Fintwit believes Chemplast Sanmar delisted at ₹5 and IPOs again at ₹540 thereby making more than 100x. A cursory look at RHP reveals that CSL paid ₹15 per share of ₹1 face value and not ₹5. Current IPO price of ₹540 is ₹5 face value. In essence the delisting price was ₹75
Which means the difference between current IPO price (₹540) and delisted price in 2012 (₹75) is 7.2x and not the 100x it’s made out to be. What has been the performance of some of CSL’s competitors (chemical pack) since May 2012 till date? See the list below: 👇🏼(2/5)
2012 Avatar of CSL did not have a custom manufacturing business. Current avatar houses custom manufacturing business. A segment growing at 35% CAGR. (Source: RHP)
