I think my PF has managed to hold on to the gains despite weakness in the market as a whole. This is most likely due to fact that all of these are high earnings growth companies.

  1. Sold out of tricoat as I had said I will. Tricoat product volumes have also gone down.
  2. Added Saregama. Read the concalls and annual reports. Watched some interviews and also talked to an investor friend who is invested. Saregama has a very bright future due to their massive song catalog. The music streaming revenues they will generate should grow at at least 20% CAGR implying much higher profit CAGR due to very low variable costs. Caravan is a massive optionality with potential to become a platform for audio content. Yoodlee films is one of the best professionally and financially prudent run film houses I have ever seen. Look at their SOP. Look at the checks and balances. They also intend to acquire 20% of new songs with 5 year pay back period, implying business throws up enough cash to have a self sustaining business model. Only reason I have not invested more is because I am starting to run out of idle cash. Want to keep some cash at all times to take care of responsibilities, emergencies and also a market crash fund.
  3. have reduced size in Route because it seemed like the least differentiated business model among all my businesses and also due to entry of twilio in Indian market.
  4. Continuing to track indigo paints. If it falls a bit more there could be an opportunity to enter in my opinion.

PS: Apologies for late replies to everyone, I was in between shifting houses in BLR and hence was unable to spend enough time on my investing commitments.
