Good stock selection. CCL is a very volatile stock. Depends when you entered it. Cash on hand is a good strategy. You will get ample opportunities with the recent carnage in the market to enter into stocks you wish to add. Suggest not to diversify your portfolio too much. Try to know each stock inside out so there is no fear when it falls. This will give you the confidence to buy more.
I do not know if I am a Senior or Junior to advise you. (Joking)
IN CCL, I ENTERED AT AROUND 252. I HAVE STRONG CONVICTION FOR ITS VIETNAM PLANT.i have sold off ccl at.325.being commodity stock,i go on booking profits of more than 20 %.thus making my holding cost in ccl almost to 50 %.i will add at 275 to 280.
MY RECENT STRATEGY IS NOT TO BUY THE STOCK,BUT THE BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY,THIS HAS HELPED ME A LOT
I have a colleague in office by the same name. He is a doctor for computers though.
Did some technical analysis from my side and saw that you know CCL pretty well. On the Point and Figure charts the stock is currently in the O column and has support at 270-260 and 255. It is a strong stock and trading above the Bullish Support Line indicating that the long term trend is upwards. Good to buy around 255-270 region.
Strong stocks should be bought on dips which is the right strategy.
Excellent choices. Perhaps a telecom play? There is no question that competitive intensity in this space has reduced. Customer acquisition costs and churn has fallen. Regulators have pretty much realized that unless they get off, they will kill the goose that lays the golden eggs. Tariffs in the last two years have not kept pace with inflation. Imagine the profitability increase with a 10p/min increase in tariffs.
Bharti has the Africa Millstone, Rcom the debt millstone. Idea seems to be the best choice
