Introduction
Welcome to the first anniversary issue of PRAGATI. PRAGATI was
born on the Internet in April 1992. Thank you for helping
PRAGATI grow and evolve over the past year.
Special thanks to all those who congratulated us on making
PRAGATI a real venture. We are overwhelmed by your enthusiastic
support. Our mailing list seems to be filled with some really
nice people (with big ambitions for themselves too!).
In the March issue of PRAGATI we recommended two
telecommunication companies- Centigram and CCOR Electronics.
Both are leading companies in their group Recently all the high
tech. stocks got a beating in the market. And with them both
Centigram and CCOR went down before reaching the Stop Buy price!
Centigram struggled its way up and again pulled back a little.
CCOR remains at the bottom. We continue to recommend Centigram
at the stop-buy mentioned in the March issue. We would like to
withdraw our recommendation on CCOR for now. Its earnings are
expected and we would like to wait till then.
HEI Inc, recommended in the March issue for 9-7/8 got pulled
down on Friday along with all the stocks in the Wall Street.
However, our stop-loss was not touched. We recommended a
stop-loss of $7.63. It fell all the way to $7.75 and started
rising again. So $7.63 appears to be a good stop-loss to hold
on to for now.
New Image Industries was again recommended in the march issue.
New Image Industries is spinning off a company called Styles On
Video, Inc. This company will be taking charge of marketing New
Image's systems in the Beauty Industry. This spin-off will
enable New Image to concentrate on its products for the dental
industry. Styles On Video is likely to trade on the American
Stock Exchange with the symbol SOV. If it does not get accepted
by AMEX it will trade on NASDAQ with the symbol STYL.
On March 10, 1993 New Image distributed to all its stockholders
of record on the record date of February 8 1993, one share of
Styles On Video for every five shares of New Image Industries.
So, if you bought New Image stock and sold it after February 1
1993, for every five shares of New Image, you should have
received 1 share of Styles On Video. Also, for every share of
Styles On Video received they are providing a right to buy
another share of Styles On Video at $6 each.
Summary of Recommendations
Note that we have started updating STOP-LOSS for our earlier
recommendations.

We have six new recommendations for this month: CML Group,
Decorator Industries, Andrea Electronics, Global Industries,
Reflectone, and Huffman Koos Inc.
Name of the Company: CML Group
Symbol: CML
Exchange: NYSE
Can be followed in: IBD, WSJ, Barron's.
Phone: (508)-264-4155

Description:
CML is a speciality retailer whose businesses are conducted
through retail store chains and through mail order. Some of the
companies it operates are Nordic Track, Nature Company, Britches
of Georgetown retail and catalog stores.
Nordic Track designs, manufactures and markets high-quality
aerobic and anaerobic exercise equipment to customers through
direct response advertising in print and on TV. Products
include eight models of cross country ski exercisers, which
range in price from $299 to $1,299. Nordic Track accounted for
over 40% of sales in 1992.
Nature Company sells nature-related merchandise including
books, gifts, children's educational toys, music, clothing,
accessories, backyard and garden items, sculptures, posters,
optics, paper products, and nature tapes. The Nature company
accounted for 26% of CML's income.
Birtches of Georgetown sells men's casual and sports wear,
business suits and women's casual wear through about 70 stores
in the Mid-Atlantic and Southeastern states.
This year CML agreed in principle to acquire the Smith & Hawken
Inc., a gardening supply catalog business.
CML group being a fairly large company may take a little longer
time to move up. With continued increase in earnings, we believe
that the stock price will go up steadily. This is an excellent
long term stock.
Reasons:
NordicTrack is the strongest company of CML group. Their cross
country ski exercise equipment is a very unique product and is
gaining a lot of popularity.
The company has about 34 million shares outstanding and
management owns about 8% of the stock.
The company's Long Term Debt is about 5 million compared to its
revenues of 495 million.
The company's earnings for the quarter ending Dec 25 1992 are:

52 wk Hi Lo: 37.75, 4.75
Recent Price: 37.75
Recommended Price: 37-7/8
Stop Loss: 32-5/8
Description:
The company manufactures intercommunication and other electronic
products for military and industrial use. Results for the first
9 months of fiscal year 1992 were hurt significantly due to
higher operating costs incurred in the development of Andrea's
noise and vibration cancellation division. 57% of sales are to
industry, 42% sales to the governments and 1% to commercial.
Some of its major customers are lockheed, General Dynamics and
Textron.
Reasons:
This stock is moving up in anticipation. The company hasn't
shown any profits in the first 9 months of last year. It is
conducting negotiations with several major telecommunications
companies with regard to its active noise cancellation product.
Over 50% of shares are owned by the management.
Andrea has a long term debt of $79,000.
Twice the company hit a new high and pulled back. Again on
Friday the stock price went up to new high grounds.
The company's new product promises to be a very useful tool
in the telecommunications industry to reduce noise levels.

diving services to the offshore oil and gas industry primarily
in the Gulf of Mexico was incorporated in Louisiana in May
1990.
Reasons:
The company has 7 million shares outstanding , of which 60% of
the shares are owned by the management. A tight hold on the
company's shares by the management indicates a large interest
in the companies growth.
Since Jan. 1993, the Oil and Gas field industry's market value
has increased about 13.8%.
The company's earnings announced on March 22 1993 showed over
100% increase as given below.

Description:
Reflectone, an affiliate of the British Aerospace PLC produces
flight simulators and provides flight and ground school
instructions for the military and commercial aerospace markets.
It designs and manufactures flight simulators, weapon system
trainers, maintenance trainers, and so on. The company's
training devices simulate the exact controls and instrumentation
present in the cockpit and train the personnel interactively. In
addition they develop training systems or instructional training
services that can support training services at both commercial
and government locations.
Reasons:
Reflectone returned to profitability, after 5 years of losses,
in 1991. In 1991 it had a profit of 7 cents per share. In 1992
the earnings surged to 53 cents per share. For the quarter
ending December 1992, earnings were 17 cents per share up from
6 cents per share for the prior year same quarter.
In October 1992 the company was awarded a $26 million contract
to manufacture a weapon system trainer, to be delivered in 1994,
for the Sikorsky SH-60 Helicopter. Reflectone will provide
maintenance and operational support for at least two years.
There are a little over 2 million shares outstanding.
The fact that the company could turn out and become so
profitable in a period that was generally bad for the aircraft
segment of the industry makes it likely that it can profit
substantially from the forthcoming turnaround for the industry
segment.

Basics of Stocks
CHAPTER 5: ENTERING THE STOCK MARKET AND UNDERSTANDING
PARAMETERS FOR PICKING STOCKS
There are zillions of strategies for buying stocks. And there
are several that work. Which ones to choose depends completely
on the investor: his goals, his personality, his time, his
ambitions, and so on.
There is nothing like a single best strategy. In fact, there
cannot be a single best strategy. If there was, everyone would
follow it and it would no longer work! You can imagine playing
in the stock market to be like playing a game. If every player
is following the same strategy clearly it will not work. Someone
has to win and someone has to lose. So the strategy has worked
for some and has not worked for others.
If there is no single best strategy what strategy do I follow?
While there is no single best strategy for everybody, there are
several good strategies for each person individually. What works
for one person may not work or may not work as well for another
person. Why? Because each of us is unique and we behave
differently. This implies that we react differently to the same
behaviors of stocks. For example, some steady, patient people
can handle fluctuations in volatile stocks well. Suppose some
stock that they have bought at $10 went up to $20 and fell in a
day to $17, they might wait patiently to see its further
behavior. There might be others who might panic and sell off. If
the stock subsequently takes off to $30, the patient person has
won. On the other had, if the stock plummets to $15 the next
day, the panic sellers have won (assuming the stock simply lies
low for the next several years) and the patient investors have
lost. This is clearly an exaggerated scenario, but illustrates
quite clearly why stock strategies that are best for some may
not be the best for others. It also illustrates that stock
strategies that are good in some situations may not be good in
others. But usually a strategy good for me will help me pick
stocks well and sell stocks well. For instance, the hypothetical
patient investor above can pick somewhat volatile stocks with
excellent fundamentals and long-term growth potential and live
through the daily fluctuations peacefully. The impatient
investor, on the other hand, might do well with low volatility
stocks that doesn't excite his jumpy nerves too much.
Here is one strategy for finding a strategy for trading in
stocks (there might be others!):
Do not reinvent the wheel. There are several strategies that
have been well researched and for which there is a lot of
empirical evidence. Study those strategies. There might already
be one that suits your purposes very well. Or pick a strategy
that is close to your interests and tailor it to make it better
for you. But do it. Read the strategies others have used. Be
wise and use others' experience.
State your investment goals. I have heard tons of different
goals from different investors:
I want my investments to make more than the paltry 5 or 6%
interest that the banks are willing to offer.
I want to make a million dollars in the stock market (Do not
laugh!) There are people who had such goals and who made it.
Nicolas Darvas is one such person who has clearly documented
how he did it).
I want my savings to grow steadily over time for my retirement,
for my children's education, for the down payment on my
house/car, and so on.
I want to have enough profits on my savings to help me buy the
small things I want without worrying about the money: a car, a
stereo, a 27" television, a home theater system, new bedroom
furniture, ... the list is endless.
Different investment goals need different strategies for their
attainment. So it is important to state concretely and in
writing exactly what your goals are.
State your investment time. How much time do you have to devote
to your investments?
No time
A few hours a year
A few hours a month
A few hours a week
A few hours a day
Again the kind of investment strategy you choose depends upon
how much time you have for your investing activities for
different strategies place differing demands on your time. Your
answers to the above two questions must be compatible.
Pick a strategy that is compatible with your goal and time. Now
start your experiments. Give yourself 6 months of study time.
YES! Resolve that you will not invest a penny until this 6
months of study has been satisfactorily completed. Ignore what
others say and what other temptations may come along your way.
"This is the biggest bull market in the history." That is
alright. There will be another one soon. "This is a fantastic
stock. It will shoot up." Good I will watch it shoot up, learn
from it and figure out how to pick such winners in the future.
Start a book for your own personal investment research. Write
down your strategies in that book and follow them, over time,
"fine tune" them to your liking.
At the end of your experiments put down very clearly your
strategies. Make them as detailed as possible and try to cover
as many situations as you can think of. What should I do if the
stock shoots up? What should I do if it plummets? What should I
do if it stays flat for a few months? What should I do if I find
some other great stock when I am fully invested? How many shares
do I buy? How many companies do I invest in at a time?
Once you are ready to step in make another crucial decision.
How much do I put in? There is no need to make this an all or
nothing decision. This can be a series of small, well
thought-out decisions. Start small and think big. As we build
our confidence and expertise we can start adding to our
principal. Before answering this question, it might help to
answer a related question: How much can I risk losing? This
brings out the worst case scenario in stocks. If I lose the
$5000 (or whatever your number is) I put into stocks, can I
survive that? Will it kill me? If such a loss is tolerable then
I am ready to invest that $5000. I am mentally prepared for the
worst case and any money that I can make or that remains out of
the $5000 is a bonus!
Action! Start investing. Simply follow the written strategy and
consult it before taking any action on your portfolio. It is
best to keep the heart out of investing completely. This is
usually very hard. So minimize it to the extent possible. That
is, think with your head and minimize the effect of what you
feel. Stick to your rules.
Periodically evaluate. Every few months, go over your successes
and mistakes. Modify your strategy based on this evaluation.
This process of application, evaluation, and modification can
help one evolve into a very good investor over time.
Persistence pays. In spite of many precautions, we all get
burned one time or the other. Everything seems to be working
against us. But it is when the outlook is so bleak that we need
to have the courage to persist. Like in any other endeavor,
persistence and experimentation pays. What Thomas Alva Edison
said seems appropriate: Genius is 99% perspiration and 1%
inspiration. Running away from investments after the failure,
like a rabbit with the tail between its legs, does not help. The
best investors have all got singed badly at times. But they
never gave up. That is the secret of their success. William
O'Neal is another such. His book. "How to Make Money In Stocks"
is an excellent reading.
Here we will briefly look at some possible strategies. Obviously
the list is far from complete in any sense. It is meant to give
a flavor of the widely differing strategies available for buying
stocks and get you started on figuring out what strategies to
study. Browsing through books on stocks in your library might be
a good idea. Simply pick a few that seem interesting and get
going.
There are several features of stocks. Such features are useful
in formulating strategies or stating them compactly and
precisely. Here is an incomplete list of features about stocks:
Price: current price, daily high, daily low, weekly high, weekly
low, yearly high, yearly low, historical high, historical low.
Volume: daily, weekly, average
Price variation: Daily price variation, moving averages (100
day, 200 day, etc.).
Industry group: What group is it in? Furniture, Real Estate,
Local Area Networks, ...? Is the group hot today? Is it a slow
and steady group (e.g., utilities)?
Products/Services: Does the company offer any new services or
products? For example, Dell Computer's mail order strategy
worked wonders, at least temporarily, against its competitors.
This is an example of a unique service. New Image has a unique
imaging system for helping a dentist scan a patient's mouth and
design dental devices. This product escalated the company's
earnings and its stock price shot from about a dollar to over
$20 in a year.
Earnings: Latest quarter earnings, earnings for this fiscal
year, annual earnings.
Shares: How many shares are outstanding? Is it a small number of
shares or Large number of shares? William O'Neal says that stock
market is like any other market. There is the perennial question
of supply and demand. A company with say 3 million shares is
likely to move (up or down) much faster than a company with 300
million shares. The greater the number of shares outstanding for
a company, the greater its inertia in general.
Per share figures: As each share represents ownership of a piece
of the company it makes sense to figure out various items on a
per share basis. For example, earnings per share for a quarter
(EPS) for a quarter can be obtained by dividing the income for
the quarter by the number of shares outstanding. The price
earnings ratio (PE ratio) is one of the most popular of such
figures. It is obtained by dividing the current price of the
stock by EPS for the past year (income for the past year divided
by the average number of outstanding shares).
Long-Term debt: This is another very important measure of the
health of a company. Too much long term debt is not good. In
fact, most companies that seek bankruptcy protection (file for
Chapter 11) do so because they are unable to meet the debt
payment obligations. A low long-term debt is usually an
indication of a healthy, well-controlled company. A high
long-term debt may or may not be an indication of ill health.
There are several companies that need to keep high level of
inventories, etc. and may need a large cash supply. Such
companies may have a large long-term debt by the nature of their
business. So far as they can comfortably meet the demands of
repayment, it is fine. A fall in interest rates, for example,
might dramatically increase the net income of a company with a
large long term debt because their loan repayments may be
dramatically reduced.
Acquisitions: Acquisitions are a common way for companies to
grow. They usually acquire companies that can complement or
strengthen their main businesses. Companies may spin-off or sell
parts of their organization to focus on their main products or
to get rid of poorly performing parts. For example, New Image is
spinning off its beauty segment so that it can concentrate on
its core business: dental imaging. For some companies,
acquisitions work out very well. They blend fast and start
producing miraculous results immediately; for example
Tandycrafts bought some leather manufacturing businesses and
started churning out huge profits. On the other hand,
acquisitions may not work for some companies. For example,
Sports and Leisure made some acquisitions and started a long
run-up of miserable earnings (this was one of our early failures
that led to the adoption of the stop-loss strategy).
Patents, Alliances, Agreements: Holding patents is like holding
the trump card: patents can make slaves out of some of the
strongest leaders in the industry. Companies pay huge royalties
to get patent rights and those that infringe on them pay even
bigger penalties (for example, all major camera companies paid
Honeywell over $150 Million for patent infringement. Right now
Fonar Corporation, a small company on NASDAQ, is suing companies
such as Hitachi and GE for over a billion for patent right
infringement. Although the outcome cannot be predicted, the
company sure is worth watching! Alliances with giants can have a
very beneficial effect. For example, the recent alliance between
Stratacom, Cisco, and AT&T for networking sent Stratacom's stock
skyrocketing (it has pulled back since).
Expansion: A company might expand by opening new branches in
other locations in the same country or even abroad. Best Buy has
been expanding at a breakneck speed, at the same time
controlling its expansion so well that it has been able to turn
new ventures to profitability in a very short time. Result? The
stock price has shot up. Rapid, uncontrolled expansions can
result in tremendous debt increases and ultimate bankruptcies
(this list is very long, Hills Departmental stores, Carter
Hawley Hale, ToysRUs, Ames, Highland, Child World, and so on).
Book value: Book value is the net worth of the company per
share. This figures is obtained by subtracting debt and other
obligations from the company's net assets and dividing by the
number of outstanding shares. For some companies, book value
gives some sort of a lower bound on how much the stock price can
fall to (This rule fails quite often though).
Cyclical: There are several (especially small) companies that
are cyclical. Fonar (FONR: NASDAQ), for example, has fluctuated
in the past between $1 and $2. Some other cyclicals are TJ
Systems (TJSY:NASDAQ), MHI Inc (MH: NYSE). There are several
seasonal companies that are cyclicals (for example, winter
clothing retailers, ski resorts, residential builders, and so
on).
Growth: These are small companies that are growing rapidly by
one or more of the following strategies: acquisitions,
expansions, increasing market share, alliances, new products,
and so on.
Legal proceedings: Legal proceedings is another major item to
which a careful investor should pay attention. When Intel won
the lawsuit against Advanced Micro Devices(AMD: NYSE), the stock
price plummeted by about $10 to around $7. Of course, in this
case, the bargain hunters minted money because the stock has
since moved up (in less than a year) to over $20. Similarly, if
a company is winning lawsuits against others, its stock price
can shoot up. So legal proceedings can sometimes make or break a
company.
Insider holdings: If the insiders hold a lot of the company's
stock, they have great interest in seeing the share price soar.
Therefore, they are likely to be highly motivated to work toward
increasing the share value. It might work the other way around
if the insiders do not own much stake in their own company. Then
the situation would be one of shareholders paying for the
insiders' opulent lifestyle!
Institutional holdings: Institutions are the largest investors
in the stock market and their actions can make big waves in the
market. So it helps to keep an eye on their actions.
Charts: For most technical analysts, charts are useful if not
essential. They show the historic price and volume variation of
the stock. With experience, a technical analyst can often make
successful predictions about the future behavior of stocks based
on certain well-defined patterns that can be discerned by the
trained eye.
In the next issue, we will examine briefly a few strategies and
how they can be designed and expressed based on the above
features.
