Protect your portfolio with low-beta stocks

  • Volatility measures the risk of security. Higher the volatility, higher the perceived risk of a stock.
  • Beta is one of the ways of measuring volatility. Any stock with a beta of less than one would be less volatile than the market
  • The Safe Haven smallcase consists of stocks whose beta is less than 0.65
  • Equity research analysts study companies from a specific industry to gain sufficient understanding of the business model and fundamental performance of the companies in the industry. They then produce recommendations regarding these stocks.
  • This smallcase selects only those stocks which have been recommended by the majority of the analysts
  • Institutional investors like mutual funds only invest in stocks of companies that have high management quality, good performance track record and expectations of bullish performance going forward.
  • Stocks in this smallcase have witnessed an increase in the number of shares held by financial institutions like mutual funds over the past 3 months
  • Momentum investing is a strategy of buying stocks that are trending up and selling those that are falling. The strategy is backed by the rationale that, once a trend is established it is likely to continue
  • The Safe Haven smallcase has been trending up over the previous 6 months and returned 27.0% returns compared to Nifty Midcap returns of 17.2%

The Safe Haven smallcase provides an investment opportunity that protects the portfolio against volatility.

Markets update

  • Concerns over slowing production and weakened demand in China due to the Coronavirus outbreak, as well as Moody’s slashing India’s growth forecast to 5.4% for 2020 from 6.6% projected earlier pulled markets down this week.
  • Nifty closed down 0.27% at 12,080.9 and Sensex closed at 41,170.1 down 0.21%.
