How the Nifty will change in the coming decade?

20 of today’s Nifty constituents are highly likely to be booted out over the next decade. We outline how you can identify the exits (relatively easy to do) and the entrants into the Nifty (a little harder to do) over the next decade. If you are good at spotting the 20 entrants into the Nifty you are likely to deliver 40% CAGR over the next decade.

The Nifty typically churns by 40% over a ten-year period implying that 20 of the current Nifty constituents will find themselves ejected from India’s most actively traded benchmark index whilst an equal number will find themselves entering the index. If you or I can second guess some of these exits/entrants we will improve our chances of generating returns significantly higher than the long term returns of investing in the Nifty (the total returns from the Nifty were 10% per annum in the decade running upto 1st December 2019). For example, if we had taken the Nifty as it is stood a decade ago and invested only in those 30 companies which have stayed in the Nifty through the intervening ten-year period, our returns would have been 19% per annum.

The anatomy of a stock market bubble staring India in the face

On 18 December, the price to earnings (PE) ratio of the Nifty 50 stock market index reached an all-time high of 37.84. This was around 87% higher than the average PE ratio of 20.26 since 1 January 1999.

The PE ratios of the Nifty 50 and other broader indices continue to remain at extremely high levels. This ratio is essentially the number of rupees that investors are ready to pay for every rupee of earnings over the last 12 months of the stocks that make up any index.

The average yearly PE ratio of the Nifty 50 has been largely rising since 2013. This basically means that share prices have risen much faster than company earnings. This is true for other indices as well. Interestingly, the overall net profit of listed companies in India hasn’t grown in many years. Their overall net profit in 2019-20 was lower than in 2007-08. Of course, 2019-20 profits would have been slightly hit by the covid pandemic, but even the overall net profit for 2018-19 was lower than that in 2010-11.

How to get rich without being lucky - by Naval Ravikant

Naval Ravikant is an Indian-American entrepreneur and investor. He is the co-founder, chairman and former CEO of AngelList. He has invested early-stage in over 200 companies including Uber, FourSquare, Twitter, Wish.com, Poshmark, Postmates, Thumbtack, Notion, SnapLogic, Opendoor, Stack Overflow, OpenDNS, Yammer, and Clearview AI, with over 70 total exits and more than 10 Unicorn companies. 

Ravikant is is also a podcaster who shares advice on pursuing wealth and happiness.

Seek wealth, not money or status. Wealth is having assets that earn while you sleep. Money is how we transfer time and wealth. Status is your place in the social hierarchy. 

↓ 

Understand ethical wealth creation is possible. If you secretly despise wealth, it will elude you. 

↓ 

Ignore people playing status games. They gain status by attacking people playing wealth creation games. 

↓ 

You’re not going to get rich renting out your time. You must own equity—a piece of a business—to gain your financial freedom. 

↓ 

You will get rich by giving society what it wants but does not yet know how to get. At scale. 

↓

Pick an industry where you can play long-term games with long-term people. 

↓ 

The internet has massively broadened the possible space of careers. Most people haven’t figured this out yet. 

↓ 

Play iterated games. All the returns in life, whether in wealth, relationships, or knowledge, come from compound interest. 

↓ 

Pick business partners with high intelligence, energy, and, above all, integrity. 

↓ 

Don’t partner with cynics and pessimists. Their beliefs are self-fulfilling. 

↓ 

Learn to sell. Learn to build. If you can do both, you will be unstoppable. 

↓

Arm yourself with specific knowledge, accountability, and leverage. 

↓ 

Specific knowledge is knowledge you cannot be trained for. If society can train you, it can train someone else and replace you. 

↓ 

Specific knowledge is found by pursuing your genuine curiosity and passion rather than whatever is hot right now. 

↓ 

Building specific knowledge will feel like play to you but will look like work to others. 

↓ 

When specific knowledge is taught, it’s through apprenticeships, not schools. 

↓ 

Specific knowledge is often highly technical or creative. It cannot be outsourced or automated. 

↓

Embrace accountability, and take business risks under your own name. Society will reward you with responsibility, equity, and leverage. 

↓ 

“Give me a lever long enough and a place to stand, and I will move the earth.” 

—Archimedes 

↓ 

Fortunes require leverage. Business leverage comes from capital, people, and products with no marginal cost of replication (code and media). 

↓ 

Capital means money. To raise money, apply your specific knowledge with accountability and show resulting good judgment. 

↓ 

Labor means people working for you. It’s the oldest and most fought-over form of leverage. Labor leverage will impress your parents, but don’t waste your life chasing it. 

↓

Capital and labor are permissioned leverage. Everyone is chasing capital, but someone has to give it to you. Everyone is trying to lead, but someone has to follow you. 

↓ 

Code and media are permissionless leverage. They’re the leverage behind the newly rich. You can create software and media that works for you while you sleep. 

↓ 

An army of robots is freely available—it’s just packed in data centers for heat and space efficiency. Use it. 

↓ 

If you can’t code, write books and blogs, record videos and podcasts. 

↓ 

Leverage is a force multiplier for your judgment. 

↓ 

Judgment requires experience but can be built faster by learning foundational skills. 

↓

There is no skill called “business.” Avoid business magazines and business classes. 

↓ 

Study microeconomics, game theory, psychology, persuasion, ethics, mathematics, and computers. 

↓

Reading is faster than listening. Doing is faster than watching. 

↓ 

You should be too busy to “do coffee” while still keeping an uncluttered calendar. 

↓ 

Set and enforce an aspirational personal hourly rate. If fixing a problem will save less than your hourly rate, ignore it. If outsourcing a task will cost less than your hourly rate, outsource it. 

↓ 

Work as hard as you can. Even though who you work with and what you work on are more important than how hard you work. 

↓

Become the best in the world at what you do. Keep redefining what you do until this is true. 

↓ 

There are no get-rich-quick schemes. Those are just someone else getting rich off you. 

↓ 

Apply specific knowledge, with leverage, and eventually you will get what you deserve. 

↓ 

When you’re finally wealthy, you’ll realize it wasn’t what you were seeking in the first place. But that is for another day. [11]

NSE Clearing suffered a tech glitch before Nifty fell by 3% on Monday

NSE Clearing, the trade-clearing and settlement arm of the National Stock Exchange (NSE), was hit by a ‘technical glitch’ on Monday that affected several stock brokers, sources in the know told BusinessLine.

Before the Nifty index witnessed its worst single day fall of over 3 per cent, or 432 points, in nearly seven months , many brokers saw their trade orders being automatically deleted and some even had their terminals disabled, brokers said.

“At around 11.38 AM, all our pending orders were cancelled by the exchange. Market regulator SEBI should look into this as to how it happens on the day volatility is high,” a dealer at a south-Mumbai brokerage house said.

At around 11.30 AM, the Nifty index was trading at 13,722 levels. But in less than three hours around 2.45 PM, the index crashed to 13,212. According to brokers, the orders pending in the system at lower levels often act as a cushion for the markets during severe price fall. However, since pending orders of several brokers were ‘automatically’ deleted the selling seemed intense, brokers said.
