Looking to invest in PSUs ? Have the right mix of expectations as the risk rewards equation is very different in these 45 public sector stocks
If one looks at the last three months of the stock market moves, a new industrial house appears to be born and has caught the fancy of the street. Yes, we are talking about PSU as a set of companies. It is not owned by one individual but by the government of India so there is an element of the largest shareholder being one entity and that is why it may be called a new industrial house. Stocks which have been listed for years and till a year back were available at dividend yield of 6 % and no one was ready to look at them. They have suddenly caught the fancy.
BSF guards endure 55 deg C, blinding sandstorms in Rajasthan desert to protect Pak border
Sam (Rajasthan): From enduring scorching temperatures of 55 degrees Celsius in summer to freezing winters at zero degrees Celsius, BSF personnel stationed along the Indo-Pakistan border in Rajasthan's Jaisalmer district face numerous challenges. Blinding sandstorms force them to switch from SUVs to camels for patrolling, making it vital for them to learn how to ride these animals. Commandant Manjit Singh emphasized the importance of maintaining strict vigilance along the 464 km-long boundary to prevent intrusion or drug trafficking. The extreme weather conditions necessitate an acclimatization process for the troops, and there are plans to introduce "cool jackets" to help combat the high temperatures.
Investing in PSUs: Risks are of a different nature and so is reward for these 45 public sector stocks
Few years back, for a PSU stock to do well there was an unwritten rule on Dalal street. Is that company a divestment candidate? If yes, then the street would look at in a positive manner otherwise it was a no go area. Nobody on the street was interested in looking at whether the company is growing at a good enough rate, what the business was, whether it had any moat or not. Over the years, as no divestment took place, interest in PSU came down. The only time there was some activity at these stocks was when dividends were announced as the yield was high in these stocks. But then all of sudden things changed. In the last nine months, PSU stocks are the new stars of Dalal street. Will 2024 see the continuation of this trend ?
