Bloom Industries Receives 'Hold' Rating from MarketsMOJO, Showing Positive Short-Term Performance

Bloom Industries, a microcap company in the ferrous metal industry, has recently received a 'Hold' rating from MarketsMOJO on January 30, 2024. This upgrade comes after the company reported positive results in September 2023, with a higher net sales of Rs 14.40 crore and the highest PBDIT of Rs 0.41 crore in the last quarter.
The stock is currently in a bullish range, with technical trends showing improvement from mildly bullish on January 30, 2024. Multiple factors, such as MACD, Bollinger Band, and KST, are also indicating a bullish outlook for the stock.

Majority shareholders of Bloom Industries are the promoters, which can be seen as a positive sign for investors. The stock has also outperformed the market (BSE 500) with a return of 47.43% in the last year, compared to the market's return of 30.88%.

However, the company's long-term fundamental strength is weak, with an average ROCE of 2.38%. The operating profit has only grown at an annual rate of 12.47% over the last 5 years, indicating poor long-term growth. Additionally, the company's ability to service its debt is weak, with a poor EBIT to Interest (avg) ratio of 0.02.

The stock is currently trading at an expensive valuation, with an enterprise value to capital employed ratio of 2. Despite this, it is still trading at a discount compared to its average historical valuations. In the past year, while the stock has generated a return of 47.43%, its profits have only risen by 4%, resulting in a PEG ratio of 1.8.

Overall, MarketsMOJO's 'Hold' rating on Bloom Industries suggests a neutral stance for investors. While the stock has shown positive performance in the short term, its weak long-term fundamentals and expensive valuation should be considered before making any investment decisions.
