Investing is an Artā¦.. Investors are not made, they are born by birthā¦. You can not prepare an exclusive list of check-list to find a potential multibagger stockā¦. But you can check few most important parameters to increase the probability of the stock being a Multibaggerā¦.. Retail investors should understand that on an average all asset class like Gold, FD, Property, Stocks etc give approximately 10% returns per yearā¦. So in 2 years you will get 20% approx. returns on normal basisā¦. But a Multibagger means a stock which multiplied 10 to 20 times in few yearsā¦. So If you are able to find a true multibagger, you will get 1000% to 2000% returns compared to just 20% returns on normal basisā¦. So you can see that there is a huge difference in returns and that is why probability of finding a multibagger is 1 out of 100 stocks⦠i.e. 1 pct.
But fortunately, I was able to keep the Multibagger ratio in my portfolio above 50 pct !!!ā¦. That means that 50% stocks in my personal portfolio and suggested portfolio became 10 Baggers i.e. Multiplied 10 timesā¦. So you must be thinking how I managed to make 50% of my portfolio stocks multiply 10 Timesā¦.. As I said that there is no exclusive list of factors to be checked, but I will give you most important parameters to check to find a potential Multibagger Stockā
- Warren Buffet give you first rule ā āPrice is what you pay, Value is what you getāā¦.. At one other place he also said -ā Buy stocks in the same way you buy your grocery, not the way you buy your perfumesāā¦.. What he wants to say in these 2 statements?ā¦.. He is saying that buy a stock when it is cheap⦠When investors are not rushing to buy itā¦. When it isĀ in neglected stateā¦. And sell a stock when it become famous⦠when investors are falling upon each other to buy itā¦. when it is being discussed in all investment forumsā¦ā¦ Buy a stock whose downside is limited and upside is hugeā¦.. But my own observation is that when a stock doubles in value, retail investors are more eager to buy it which is not an intelligent investor behaviour.
- Do not track the stock prices on daily or weekly basisā¦.. If you have bought a fundamentally strong stock, then just focus on Business performance of the company and sector healthā¦. Treat yourself as a business partner in the company instead of shareholder.
- It is much better to buy an Excellent company at average price than buying an average company at Excellent pricesā¦.It means that dont buy a company just because it is cheapā¦. There can be reasons because of that the company does not deserve high pricesā¦.. Try to find companies which are strong in all respect but still trading at comparatively low valuationsā¦. Most important criteria to find excellent companies is consistent high Return on Equity.
- Stay away from Debt laden companiesā¦.. If you want to sleep well after buying stocks, stay away from high debt companiesā¦. Debt is like a time bomb which can blast in slow growth periodsā¦.Debt Equity ratio of 1:1 should be the maximum criteriaā¦. Debt more than this should be avoided.
- Check the Cash Flow Statements of the companiesā¦.. Company may be making good ROE but all its profits might be stuck in Debtorsā¦.. Profits are of no use unless it is converted in Free Cashā¦. Look for good Cash from Operating Activities.
