US Fed's new Emergency Stabilization Plan

1⃣ Provide loans to banks
2⃣ Value US Treasuries held by banks at par for collateral, even if they are currently not valued at par
3⃣ Inject USD 25B into banking system

They are calling it BTLP

Its essentially QE with a different label It took Fed ~2 years to sell $600B and only a few days to reverse 50% of that

Just last week alone Fed bought $300B worth of assets

Current size of Fed Balance Sheet ~8.5Trillion USD

Why you should not be wasting your time with microcaps (less than 500cr market cap)

A data driven analysis 🧵👇 As of last week, there are ~4250 listed companies in 🇮🇳 stock market representing about ~3.23T USD

Of these 4250, about ~49% (2069) are below 100cr market cap and further about ~21% (900) are between 100cr to 500cr market cap

Effectively ~70% of listed universe is below 500cr

#AartiPharmaLabs lists today, here are some slides from my presentation at @ias_summit to help you understand the business ⤵️

The current share price is expensive, I wouldn't be a buyer at this price 🛑

All upgrades I have made to my investing process in 2022

1⃣ Automated macro/ global financial health monitoring
2⃣ Metric + Data driven monitoring of price + volume in Indian stocks
3⃣ Incorporated technicals & stages into buy/sell process
4⃣ Automated analysis of insider buying 5⃣ Proper Industry & Sub Industry Classification of all stocks > 100cr market cap
6⃣ Automated signal generation of bulk/block deals
7⃣ Create a bot to fetch, save and organize research reports into G Drive
8⃣ Better organization of notes & research material via Discord

Seems like a good day to post some stats 📊

Percentage above 40W EMA

Large Cap: 63% (was ~78% two weeks backs)
Mid Cap: 51%
Small Cap: 52%

Large caps were leading the market but the gap between large vs mid & small is now reducing Only ~28% of IT stocks and ~45% of Pharma stocks are above their 40W EMA

Banks, Metals and Capital Goods are ruling the market
