Performance of select quality parameters:
At NJ AMC, an exhaustive examination of various quality parameters has been undertaken, revealing several robust metrics indicative of a company's financial robustness. Some of these metrics are Return on Equity (ROE), ROE Consistency, Dividend Payout Ratio, Debt-to-Equity, and Current Ratio Consistency. We would like to share an analysis of the comparative performance between high-quality and low-quality stocks as measured by these metrics. The findings demonstrate that high quality stocks have consistently outperformed their lower-quality counterparts and market indices over extended periods.
Presented below is the cumulative growth of INR 1000 from September 2006 to November 2023 for both the top 100 high-quality and bottom 100 low-quality stocks, alongside the Nifty 500 Index. The accompanying table displays the Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) and annualised volatility. It is noteworthy to emphasise the superior risk-adjusted returns attained by high-quality stocks, assessed through diverse quality parameters, in contrast to low-quality stocks and the market index throughout this specified timeframe.
