Hi Jaideep,
Honestly I was expecting a correction at 7.80 itself. However the panic I see in the script is unreasonable. If I can rightly justify the reason for this is what follows
People entering a penny counter say at Rs 3, the stock goes upto 6 and he sells off without considering the future prostects. A traders mentality looks at a stock like this in an alternate way- a stock bought at 300, it has reached 600, doubled so lets quit(or book profit).
Also considering other factors like The sensex has crossed 7k mark, but you can very well say it was none others but Reliance. Few other counters like Bharat Forge, Bajaj Auto and L&T have moved up smartly is also worth mentioning.
Analysing a bit further into the mid-caps, we find that this sector has turned out to be completely flat in the past couple of weeks, counters like VSNL posting a profit rise of 400% have base points of 224 and an above limit of 237.
Coming back to small caps, a traders mentality right now is "BUY A SHARE WITH STRONG FUNDAMENTALS". This is why at a 7k benchmark the milestone for small caps is being seen nowhere. That is why even counters like Sun Beam are trading far below their expected price.
The counter has posted a net rise of 185%, ok thats possible in a penny couter.
But the selling pressure is what I see as a panic.
Let us hold this counter in controlled quantity.
I will not suggest to start averaging currently because further downside is possible if this is the mentality of the investors.
I have myself bought this script at 5.70.
I have always believed that the share market is not a place to gamble, it is a place where you know the company and you have tracked the counter for long before you invest.
Sun Beam is one such which has growing fundamentals. I would suggest you to look at the company stats yourself before you invest or take any action on your the stock.
I would suggest to enter the stock on a strong closing above a 5.8-6.0 level and watch out for the next target of 7. Look carefully that the stock has always visited the 6.7 and 6.9 mark recently but failed to cross it, if it crosses that it should go up to the suggested level.
Any further suggestions are always welcome.
