God knows what but my broker friend is extremely bullish on ...

In a recent post, Amit had penned the following comment :

Hello shankar,

My broker is extremely bullish on jHUNJHUNWALA VANASPATI.This stock has been hitting circuits for the past some time,the current market price(at todays circuit) is 58.He expects it to reach a three figure mark in a months time(atmost).

One other stock is UB enginerring trading at 63(todays circuit) which has also hit circuits almost daily in the past few days....

Will look forward for your advice on UB Engineering and JHUNJHUNWALA VANASPATI.

God knows what but my broker friend is extremly extremly bullish on JHUNJHUNWALA VANASPATI.

Best regards,
Amit.


Jhunjhunwala Vanaspati has risen from 40 rupees (Mar-28) to 65 rupees (Apr-21) - a return of 62.5% in 3 weeks [Charting]

On a more sanely and boring front, lets examine the financials of this scrip -
1. The stock is at a fwdPE of 6.12
2. Has been profitable over the last 5 yrs and all quarters are in the black (this isn't some small company .. it has sales of almost 500 crs)
3. Although quarterly profits are not high .. the company should close the yr with 10 crs of PAT

I would advice a small sum of money (not to be entirely taken as a gamble) ... towards this company. Keep a stop loss of 50 rupees however.

UB Engineering was at 32.95 (Mar-28) and has risen to 66.00 rupees (Apr-21) without a single day of negative returns .. one reason why Amit has not been able to lay his money on this stock [Charting]

UB Engineering has been posting losses for the last 4 yrs. One reason for recommending this stock can be the expectation that UB Engineering will be in the black this quarter like the previous one and perhaps actually, have had made some money. I would advice a "no buy" on this scrip.
