Investment Securities Analysis
Securities Analysis 1

We, all 3rd year Financial Management of UST, member of JFINEX, were invited to go to Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE) Trading hall located in Ortigas for the seminar entitled “Investment Introspection: Exscinding the Inquisitiveness Behind the Trends” last November 24, 2012. The said event talked about the capital markets and analysis of trends in the economy. It provided the students learning and comprehensive understanding about technical and fundamental analysis, plus a tid bits of trading and the stock market. There were three speakers of the seminar namely: Ms. Mary Jane Pangan from the PSE, Mr. Louell Sala, MD., MBA, Treasurer of Philippine Active Shareholders Association (PASA), and Mr. Ibin Sobejana, a broker from Accord Capital. The presenters lectured about the additional information and happenings in the capital market, introduced the online stock brokerage firm Philstocks.ph, and the fundamental and technical analysis of trends on the stock market, respectively. Ms. Pangan had her talk focused on the introduction of the Philippine stock market and the PSE as the governing body above all activities because if not for PSE, the economy and the whole capital market will be in chaos and it will really be disorganized. While Mr. Sala engaged us in analyzing trends in the economy and the stock market using charts such as the cup and handle, rounding bottom, MACD, etc., and other instruments. Last is Mr. Sobejana, who endorsed his brokerage firm Accord Capital and their very own hosted online stock trading philstock.ph, taught us students how to trade online, utilize the website and how to look on the board lot table (bid, ask, high, low), charts, and placing orders (buy and sell). Overall, it was an activity full of learning. It is indeed something that is picked up outside the four corners of the classroom. I am looking forward for more activities like this one but I’m expecting for a more intense seminar, a more advanced

    In 1995, AB Capital and Investment Corporation was tapped by the UP Foundation, Inc. (UPFI) to manage an equity fund of 2.5 million pesos, which is a small portion of their 260 million peso endowment fund. The interests earned from the fund, which is used to support the professorial chair requirements of the University, has dropped due to a decline in the returns of treasury bills - that being the bulk of UPFI's investments. In response to this, the investment committee of UPFI has proposed that some portion of the fund be invested in the Philippine stock market, which was observed to have experienced an increase of more than 150 percent in 1993. In line with this, Patricia Tan of AB Capital was tasked to design a portfolio for the fund in which she plans to include mostly "blue chips" and other sound "second liners", thereby taking into consideration UPFI's conservative stance. So far, Patricia Tan has come up with an analysis of the various stocks included in the portfolio as preparation for a possible inquiry from the investment committee on the fund's performance.…
