QUALITY STATEMENT of Megha Investments and Research

QUALITY STATEMENT

Of MEGHA INVESTMENTS AND RESEARCH

We believe, in our activity, there are two aspects,

1. The quality of Analysis, and
2. The quality of Delivery of service

We strive to remain best in both of these aspects.

Our MAIN FOCUS remains on highering our existing CUSTOMER RENEWAL RATIO than ACQUISITION OF NEW CUSTOMERS.

And that also explains our No Sample Trial culture followed since beginning of fee based services.

1. THE QUALITY OF ANALYSIS:

To take care of this important aspect, we follow top-down as well as bottom-up approach.

We have team of experienced, qualified and MOST IMPORTANLY those fellows who have ability to imagine, work with and deliver through THE MOST OBVIOUS to MOST ADVANCED AND INNOVATIVE in these subjective field of market research and analysis.

We encourage and entertain such study people in our organization, who can imagine of flying in skies while their feet firmly on the ground.

We believe in concept of internationalization and inter-market analysis, i.e. all markets classified into asset-class, locations, and so on are interconnected and increasingly doing so. However, the magnitude and frequency of co-relation keeps changing with times.

We suggest to read 'About Us' page for more views on research and analysis.

2. THE QUALITY OF DELIVERY OF SERVICE:

To take care of this aspect we have put down in place robust systems that ensures,

1.    Prompt receipt of new customer queries and response to it via phone call, SMS, email, contact form.

2.    Priority of task mentioned in 1^st point above for EXISTING CUSTOMERS than new prospects.

3.    Regularity of respective services, and informative SMS when services are disrupted of for other reasons.

4.    Specificity of all the services. This goes with our hard-core approach that we must know what we are offering PRECISELY, and the investor/trader must know what he is BUYING IN THE FORM OF OUR SERVICE.

Many times we help prospects to identify their need and choose right service from our basket of useful services.

We happily apologize for our customer care executives’ rigid behavior in explaining and getting too specific!

Diversification in Investment

Diversification in investments:

      It is literal and clear that diversification has all to do with reducing risk. You may also want to fancy-name it ‘asset-allocation’. Why would one ‘allocate’ to multiple asset classes or ‘diversify’ if one is safely sure about one asset class, and the return on would get, one would never think of any sort of allocating or diversification. Yes it also has to do with the advent of the ‘financial industry’. Recently we see in indian markets the launch of, simultaneously, gold etf and hybrid mf schemes involving equity, debt as well as gold etf investment. Why? They have launched only now? Wasn’t there as need of ‘gold-touch’ earlier? Or in one year only gold has become ‘investible’ or worth giving ‘allocation’? thus most of us do/or should understand, this is about business and they have to sell financial products, any for that matter.

Well, coming to the main topic, lets’ see some expert thoughts on diversification in investing:

Legendary investor Warren Bufferr has said for diversification,

“Diversification is protection against ignorance; it makes very little sense if you know what you are doing.”

He also says,

IPOs-Some Most Important Things to know about

WHEN ITS HOT AND FIREY!

IPOs only and only come in hot and bull market. Why? So that they can obtain the highest price.

MERCHANT BANKERS AIN’T YOUR FRIEND

Investors forget that Merchant Bankers are selling agents of the issuers. And many times they are also given extra fee for performance selling over and above fixed fee.

Merchant/Investment banking is a cream business. So many are in race to get mandates for IPOs from issuer companies. They will do everything to please the company.

SELL ON LISTING? If you’re lucky enough.

Most investors have only one funda for investing in IPOs.

To sell on listing!

They all think that they will be able to sell and outsmart everyone else.

They all feel so because of psychology. They have seen some issues listing at high premium and their listing premiums quoting in so called ‘gray-market’; and this brings the representative bias. The availability bias makes him confront only good and positive news and information. They ignore the discounted/failed listed IPOs. And in hot market there is all news of economic growth as well.

New sectors are not invented every now and then: The fad and fancy for ‘new’ in markets:

Many IPOs come which are highly pricey and shares of some peer company are already available in secondary market. Still

HOusing Finance Counters: Update on Recommendation given on Behavioral Finance principles

Behavioral finance has just evolved in earlier part of this decade.

Understanding of behavioral finance can help tremendously in investing; and so in trading and speculation as well.

On 13 May, we reported in brief about the application of rule of behavioral finance in housing finance sector stocks. We talked about the ‘representative’ and ‘leadership’ bias. How small companies tend to follow the sector leader. We covered a sector with fewer listed companies.

The LIC Housing is listed industry leader and after it Dewan Housing, Gruh Finance, Ind Bank Housing, Can Fin Homes can be listed amongst the housing finance specific companies.

DEWAN HOUSING has since shot up to new high of 260 from 230 levels.

While GRUH FINANCE has since shot up to new high of 351 from 290 levels.

Can Fin Homes hit new high of 140 today, while Gruh Finance, and Dewan Housing also hit highs in this month. while Ind Bank Housing is trading firmly above 20.

We still recommend both of this stocks for fresh buys.

Experience and Learning

Experiences and learning:

“The second name of experience is to learn”

-Dhirubhai Ambani

         Would anyone contradict with this great personality? Every day is experience, every hour is experience, every minute is experience, every event is experience, every response is experience, every action is experience, and every reaction is experience. So does that mean all the life is experience? And by virtue of all the experiences being learning; there is nothing in saying that life is an experience or/and learning. Experience can also be described as the meeting place or convergence of the situation one faces and the mental effects of those situations.

            There is a thin differentiation understanding it. But there are few things to it. All experience, but
