Intro
The video introduces the concept of identifying stocks with the potential to deliver 100x returns (100 baggers). It contrasts the high investment required for regular investments to reach a corpus of one crore rupees versus the potentially lower investment needed if one can identify and invest in multibagger stocks. The video emphasizes that simply picking stocks based on names is insufficient; thorough understanding and conviction in the company's business are essential to achieve such high returns. The presenter shares that the video will provide insights from a research report on characteristics of past 100 baggers and potential future ones, cautioning viewers against blindly following stock tips without proper research and understanding.
Multibagger explanation
The presenter shares data on the prevalence of multibagger stocks in the Indian stock market over the last 15 years. Out of 1000 listed stocks, approximately 270 have delivered returns exceeding 10x, while 32 stocks have achieved 100x returns. The presenter highlights the potential for wealth creation through multibagger stocks, noting that, on average, a ₹1 lakh investment in a 10x stock would have grown to ₹15 lakhs, and a 100x stock would have grown to ₹784 lakhs. This data underscores the importance of identifying and holding onto fundamentally strong companies for long-term wealth creation.
The Sectors with most of the Multibaggers
The video identifies the sectors from which most 100-bagger stocks have emerged. Out of 26 sectors with 100-bagger stocks, seven sectors account for the majority (117 out of approximately 180) of these high-return stocks: financial services, healthcare, capital goods, chemicals, auto and auto ancillaries, FMCG. The presenter attributes this concentration to long-term structural tailwinds in these sectors, suggesting that investing in fundamentally sound companies within sectors with sustained growth potential increases the likelihood of achieving 100x returns. Additionally, the video notes that the number of 100-bagger stocks has increased since 2008 due to favorable entry valuations following the market downturn. A correlation of -0.95 exists between entry valuation and 100-bagger returns, meaning that overpaying at entry significantly reduces the chances of achieving such high returns.
Key Parameter 1 and the Stocks
The presenter discusses key characteristics of stocks that have delivered high returns, noting that many of these stocks were either overlooked, out-of-glamour, or underwent significant business transformation, such as moving from commodity products to specialized offerings. The presenter suggests that NBFCs (Non-Banking Financial Companies) currently fit this profile, as they have been largely ignored by the market following the IMFS issue, leading to attractive valuations. The presenter believes that regulatory changes by the RBI could lead to an uptick in NBFC stocks, particularly those with strong parentage and good business practices, such as Shriram Finance and various microfinance companies.
Key Parameter 2
The video highlights the importance of companies focusing on niche segments. Examples of companies that have delivered 100x returns by focusing on niche markets include Asia Motors (Royal Enfield in the two-wheeler market), Balakrishna Industries (off-road tires), Symphony (air coolers), and Garvare (high-tech fish nets). The presenter identifies potential niche-focused companies in the current market, such as Azad Engineering, ThenSJS, Exigo (confirmed tickets and buses), and Sweet Dreams (women's premium nightwear).
Key Parameter 3 and the stocks
The presenter discusses the significance of companies building strong "modes," such as brand recognition, distribution networks, dealership depth, and consistent quality service. An example is shared of Siras Entware, which has delivered returns exceeding 550 times in the last 20 years by focusing on brand awareness and dealer incentives in semi-urban markets. The presenter identifies companies currently building such modes, including Kajara Ceramics (distribution network), Devyani International (QSR space), and Thyrocare (diagnostic space with a distribution model in Tier 1 and Tier 3 cities). The video also cautions against companies growing rapidly by leveraging debt, citing Unitech as an example of a star stock that destroyed wealth due to unsustainable debt-fueled growth.
Key Parameters for the future Multibaggers
The video provides filters to avoid investing in risky, rapidly growing stocks. The first filter involves selecting companies with a market capitalization between ₹300 crore and ₹10,000 crore to ensure data accessibility and clear disclosures. The second filter requires companies to have an average revenue and profit growth of at least 10% CAGR over the last five years. The third filter focuses on return ratios, requiring an average return of at least 12% over the last three years and a 3% increase in return on equity (ROE) compared to the previous three years. Additionally, the video emphasizes the importance of operational efficiency, specifically asset-to-cash flow conversion (CFO). The presenter also highlights the importance of qualitative parameters, referencing Part 2A and 2B of their Fundamental Analysis series, and shares a list of 13 stocks from the research report that exhibit characteristics of potential 100-baggers, while cautioning viewers to conduct thorough research before investing.
