TOP 10 – main market to shine

September 10, 2017 by

Sagiocr Group returns to TOP 10 list

IC Insider.com said last week, the main market sits just below the critical 290,000 point mark and seems headed to break through that level, based on the shortage of supply for Scotia Group shares.
During the past week the All Jamaica Composite Index (AJI) surged to 296,779.53 during trading on Thursday.
The AJI high of the past week is just shy of the 298,000 points the report stated the cut in BOJ’s bench mark rate would translate to. Having broken through the critical 290,000 points resistance level it looks like the main market is free to move to the next resistance level around 370,000 points. The junior market on the other hand raced ahead of the main market earlier this year and is struggling currently as a number of the stocks were pushed to values well ahead of the rest of the market and have been undergoing downward adjustment. The other factor is that many investors are not looking ahead as to what earnings could be. The recent trading of Stationery and Office Supplies is a case in point. Demand fell away ahead of the release of half year results, only to climb after the company released strong growth in profit, suggesting it could be just slightly ahead of IC Insider.com’s original forecast of 40 cents per share. This is not the only case of investors currently miss pricing stocks, but time usually takes care of it.
Buying came in for Barita Investments that returned to the top list last week pushing it out of the list once more, as some buying came in for the stock even with increased selling and Sagicor Group returned to the listing having been pushed out in the prior week.
The average PE ratio for the Junior Market Top stocks is at 7.3 and the PE for the main market TOP 10, ends the week at 6.9. The average PE for the overall main market trades at 13.2 and 13.2 for Junior Market, based on 2017 estimated earnings.
At the close of the week, IC Insider.com’s TOP 10 stocks now trade at an average discount of 45 percent to the average of the market for Junior Market Top stocks and it remains at 48 percent for the main market.

2 new entrants to TOP 10

September 4, 2017 by

“The biggest change to stocks this coming week may well be guided by the recent cut in interest rates, with Treasury bill rates falling and Bank of Jamaica cutting its overnight rate by 25 basis points.” That was part of last week’s opening statement for the TOP 10 stocks report by IC Insider.com.
During the week main market stocks surged to record levels on 3 days with Friday closing with the third highest daily gain in the market’s history. The main market sits just below the critical 290,000 point mark and seems headed to break through that level, based on the shortage of supply for Scotia Group shares on Friday with a closing bid of $52. The cut in BOJ’s bench mark rate would translate to the all Jamaica Composite Index climbing to 298,000 points.
At the close of last week, there were no changes to the TOP 10 Junior list but two new companies swapped places in the main market with Barita Investments returning, as investors cooled on the stock following a run up in the price following news out of the company that the directors were considering a bid to acquire majority shares. Based on the third quarter results showing unrealized investment gains more than doubling the level at the end of September last year to $1.1 billion at June, the company should see major gains going forward in this area, with falling interest rates and rising stock prices. Salada Foods fell in price to $8.50 and along with Barita pushed out Sagicor Group and Pan Jam Investment, both of which rose in price during the week.
The average PE ratio for the Junior Market Top stocks is at 7.3 and the PE for the main market TOP 10, ends the week at 6.9. The average PE for the overall main market trades at 13.4 and 13.3 for Junior Market, based on 2017 estimated earnings.
At the close of the week, IC Insider.com’s TOP 10 stocks now trade at an average discount of 45 percent to the average of the market for Junior Market Top stocks and it remains at 48 percent for the main market.
