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.

Thematic (Sector/Industry)

As 2Q FY19 earnings season comes to a close, there is clear message that while many companies across sectors have not done badly on sales growth, the picture on margins looks much less promising. The interesting thing is that pressure on profitability is not limited to a few companies or just few categories. In addition, geographical exposure and client base doesn't seem to matter as well. We believe this is an important trend because while business strategy of these companies can't be questioned, demand may not be as robust as inferred from sales numbers alone. Despite recent correction, Indian markets are not in value zone yet and no or little PAT growth is bad news. The valuations continue to remain at elevated levels for several stocks and it will be key for market performance over short to medium term.
