    Read this if your stock-market results are disappointing.


    I'm reading a great book that is making me think about how I've been managing my share portfolio, even after several years of stock-market investing.
    It's called "Selecting Shares That Perform" and was written by Richard Koch and Leo Gough, one a successful investor and the other a prolific author of financial and investment books.
    Some of their rules for portfolio management challenge my previously held views, but I think they make sense. The following list starts with the rules that are rocking me the most:


    1. Never 'average down' when the price is falling
    They must be joking, right. Never average down; surely that flies in the face of conventional wisdom. Heck, I've averaged down on my investments loads of times, when they've moved against me.
    But here's the thing -- although times of general market weakness may be a good time for bargain hunting, maybe there's a rational argument for not averaging down when an individual investment tanks. What we are talking about here are shares that fall despite being part of a rising index or portfolio. After all, we buy shares in companies because our analysis leads us to think that they will go up. If they go down, we were wrong, plain and simple.
    Averaging down means we think a share is about to turn around and go up again, right? Well that's a tough call to make and one that's easy to get wrong. If you don't believe me, look at shares such as Royal Bank of Scotland (LSE: RBS), Lloyds Banking (LSE: LLOY) and Taylor Wimpey (LSE: TW), all popular 'value' favourites around 2007. Look at the share prices of these companies now and think of those investors that averaged down into the share-price destruction.
    To me, it seems wise either to maintain our original weightings in such bad performing investments, or even to consider using the next rule:


    2. Never be afraid to sell at a loss
    Instead of averaging down, why not axe a falling share? I mean, it's doing the exact opposite to what it was 'supposed' to do, so why not just cut and run after a predetermined decline? The book I'm reading suggests 7-10%.
    I wish I'd done that much more often. Shares such as Trinity Mirror (LSE: TNI), Dixons (LSE: DXNS) and HMV (LSE: HMV) could have been prevented from causing so much private-investor carnage if those punters had simply sold on share-price weakness.


    3. Balance patience and prudence
    Whether we fall into the 'long-term buy and hold' camp or the 'it's never wrong to take a profit' camp, it's a good idea to seek a balance between the two philosophies.
    How patient should we be? If we are holding a share for years, and nothing happens, maybe it would be more prudent to sell and move on to other opportunities. Similarly, if a share rockets very quickly, maybe it's prudent to pocket some of those gains. My own rule-of-thumb is 'the faster the gain, the faster the sale.'
    Generally, I think it's wise to be flexible and not become too entrenched in either philosophy.


    4 Do not over-diversify your portfolio
    Traditionally, a diversified portfolio of shares is seen as a defence against individual company risk, but too many shares in a portfolio can actually increase risk.
    With too many shares, it's hard to know the underlying companies that well. There is a risk that the quality of your choices might decline and, with so many holdings, you could end up chucking in a few speculative punts with hardly any thought.
    With greater focus on just a few shares, it's more likely that we will be on the ball when it comes to buying and selling. The book suggests that between five and ten shares is adequate for most investors.


    5. Do not invest heavily when everyone else is
    You've probably heard the adage: "When they are crying, it's time for buying; when they are yelling, it's time for selling."
    In other words, when everyone has gone share crazy, there's a good chance that markets may be close to a cyclical high -- often a disastrous time to buy most shares.
    Conversely, when markets have plummeted and shares are very unpopular due to recent investor losses, it is usually a good time to pick up cheap shares on depressed valuations.


    6. Only invest if you are confident in the company's prospects
    The book cautions: "Investing in the stock market is not like picking a winner at Aintree", and we can only be confident in a company's prospects if we have researched and analysed it thoroughly.
    If we invest in speculative companies with no profits, but with great 'potential,' it is usually very similar to betting on the horses with an unpredictable outcome. On the other hand, finding attractively valued, profit-making businesses with good growth prospects can help us to achieve results that are more predictable.

    About EAST - This is very much overvalued now..


    CSE is now moving with not fundamentals. We have to look at the trading pattern also.

    1. EAST - we didn't find big selling orders yet. All were in this forum Talked more about CSD. but it stopped it's run due to big hand's selling. We obviously observed that last week.

    2. Foreign holding of EAST is increasing DAY by day. If we look at the CLND and HVF - froreigners sold during rally. BUT EAST - they are increasing their holding upto now. (today - we've to wait to see).

    3. Now east is illiquid in the market. and, They are pushing the price systematically. So, price movement will be easy with EAST. I am not promoting EAST. but these are my observation only. Anything can happen anytime.

    reachin 70 might be possible if huge qty of shares re among few ppl.. then its quite easy to drag it up. if so its blady hard to predict the exit point.

    would like to others guessings as well ..This is not buy /sell/hold recommendation.Do ur own analysis

    Brokers Credit or Margin Credit – a necessary part of stock market trading

    The Securities Exchange Commission introduced a prohibition on Broker firms extending credit to clients. This was done to prevent overheating of the market with a possible bubble being created which when it bursts harms both the market as well as the economy.

    The SEC so acted because a significant segment of trading in the market was on the basis of credit extended by the broker firms. The broker firms did not have legal margin agreements but extended credit to clients informally. The clients assumed that they could buy on credit and sell whenever it is profitable for them to do so despite the settlement provision of T+3. The brokers did not force sell but allowed extended credit. Some broker firms charged interest while others even gave free credit. All this encouraged the clients to buy much more than their assets warranted. The broker firms took the risk but as the market was continuously going up they made light of the risk exposure. This sort of situation prevailed in USA during the years before the Great Depression of 1929 and was a contributory cause to the stock market bubble of the late 1920s which led to the bursting of the bubble in 1929.

    The Colombo Stock Exchange had a rule that credit extended by brokers should not exceed 50% of the value of the client’s portfolio. Of course the portfolio value keeps changing with the changes in the market prices of the shares that constitute the portfolio.

    The Brokers were allowed to lend to a client up to 50% of the value of the portfolio. If the value of the portfolio fell the client was required to make up the value by depositing cash up to the value of the shortfall. The client was required to make good the shortfall within 24 hours. If he fails to do so the broker firm is required to sell such number of shares as necessary to bring up the 50% requirement. These rules of margin trading were not followed by the broker firms and they thereby took on the risk of the fall in market value of the portfolio. Some did not even conform to the Regulation. But the broker firms did not force sell at all. This sent the wrong message to the clients who borrowed. But this is an unstable situation and the broker firms were risking exposure to undue risks.

    Broker firms in other countries require an initial margin in cash of about 25% of the value of the shares they want to buy in addition to the maintenance margin of 50%.

    The SEC has now allowed broker firms to lend up to the value of the liquid assets they hold. These assets are defined in the annex to the circular. How many firms have already exceeded the value of their liquid assets? The extent of Debtors balances may have exceeded the liquid assets of some brokers. They would have to force sell unless they pump more cash to the company. The SEC calls it zero leverage. Will the broker firms be happy with the new rule? As I see it there are two problems. One is concerned with the financial stability of the broker firm which the SEC has addressed. The other is prudent lending to clients. The broker firms should at least enforce the 50% maintenance margin requirement and stop credit to clients whose debit balance exceeds the 50% value of the portfolio.
