Everyone talks about "follow the smart money"

But 90% of investors read insider buying data WRONG

Here's the framework I use to separate real conviction from noise:

A masterclass in reading SAST filings 🧵

First, understand the 3 types of insider buying:

1️⃣ Open Market Purchase
→ Promoter buys from secondary market
→ Signal strength: MODERATE

2️⃣ Preferential Allotment
→ Company issues fresh shares to promoter
→ Signal strength: STRONG

3️⃣ Warrant Conversion
→ Promoter converts warrants to equity
→ Signal strength: STRONG (already paid 25% upfront)

🚩 RED FLAGS - Avoid these types of "insider buying":

❌ Inter-se transfers (just moving shares between family members)
❌ Reclassification (converting public to promoter category)
❌ Inheritance/gift transfers
❌ Frequent issuance of shares/warrants

These show ZERO conviction. Just accounting jugglery

Analyzing a banking stock is very different from studying regular listed company

Banks follow unique accounting norms making their analysis distinct

In this 🧵, we’ll simplify key banking terms to help you understand how banks operate

(1/n)

How Banks Earn Money

Banks take Deposits from their account holder customers and give Loans to others. Bank pay you a small interest and charge borrowers a higher one

The difference = Bank's main profit

That’s where NIM (Net Interest Margin) comes in

(2/n)

NIM (Net Interest Margin)

NIM = Interest earned on loans – Interest paid on deposits

NIM Margins= (Interest earned on loans – Interest paid on deposits) ÷ Earning Total assets

Higher NIM → better profitability. Lower NIM → rising funding costs or weaker pricing power
