Research on Indian Equities

Diary Of A Private Investor

Diary Of A Private Investor is my attempt to share Notes, Research and Thoughts as I carry out day-to-day chores as a Full-Time Investor in the Indian Equity Markets. I am looking to write about everything markets; from Business Insights, Stock Specific Research, Useful Analysis Concepts and Interesting Perspectives on Investing. I am currently a Full-Time Investor and I’ve been investing for over 6 years now, including professional stints at a couple of Research & Fund Management Firms. Over these years in the market, I’ve had a unique experience to learn the roots of traditional investing as well as the new-age investing frameworks; and with this unique blend is how I approach the Puzzle of Investing.

Technical and Quantitative Research

Vermilion Research

Vermilion’s objective is to deliver timely, actionable, and unique technical research to professional investors through the application of our various technical indicators.

Our research strategists seek to highlight securities which we believe are at major inflection points, based on our various technical and quantitative indicators, and offer asymmetric risk/return profiles. Our unique research methodology, centered on relative strength, enables our strategists to deliver superior investment recommendations.

Our process begins by organizing the universe of actively traded stocks into discrete sectors, then into industry groups. We then apply our technical and quantitative tools to identify developing price trends. Once attractive trends are identified within a selected sector or group, we screen for individual stocks which we believe offer the best risk/reward profile. We provide a historical perspective that often reveals, through our long-term charts, how price patterns often repeat themselves over time.
