Find the change before it becomes consensus.
Follow Indian businesses where new customers, fuller factories or a recovering cycle could change earnings. See why each company made my watchlist, what the price assumes and which evidence would change my mind.
Inside the research
Understand what needs to go right.
Every company is forced through the same questions. What changed, why might it persist, what is the market already assuming, and which observable fact would prove the thesis wrong?
What changed?
The operating evidence that may make future earnings different from the past.
Can it endure?
The moat, balance sheet and terminal-value test before valuation begins.
What is priced in?
Bear, base and bull earnings translated into a probability-weighted value.
How can I be wrong?
Explicit falsifiers that force the thesis to change when the facts do.
The inflection map
A story is not an inflection.
Stage 2 is usually the interesting zone. Customers, orders, utilisation or cash variables start validating the possibility before reported earnings look clean.
