TRANSCRIPT
JANUARY (2020)
1
The DSEX gained 17 points (0.38%) in January, with an initial sharp fall of 9.36% and a subsequent exceptional recovery of 12.19% that was short-lived. The persistence of panic sale in the first 10 trading days of the month caused the premier bourse to nosedive by 417 points (9.36%). Subsequently, Bangladesh Bank's plan and the PM's directives to rejuvenate the capital market were unveiled, and news such as the appointment of GP's new CEO and the announcement of SQURPHARMA's directors’ intention to buy the company’s shares also emerged. These news jointly revived confidence in the market and led investors to binge on large cap undervalued stocks, which helped the market add back 492 points (12.19%) in 8 trading sessions. This included the biggest single day gain of 232 points (5.60%) in the past 7 years. However, this trend did not sustain as the main index slipped back to red yet again as most companies reported earnings that failed to meet investors' expectations, causing the key index to shed 59 points (1.29%) in the last 4 trading days. Some large cap stocks such as GP, SQURPHARMA, and BRACBANK were among the top turnover leaders. Additionally, the majority of the stocks that made it to the top gainers and losers list have been operating with poor earnings.
While exports edged up by 2.89% in December owing to the RMG sector’s peak period, H1 reported an overall 5.84% decline. The government has set up a USD 10 mn fund to help improve the dismal condition of exports. On the other hand, remittance reported another large gain of 39.79% during the month. Moreover, with the big success of the implementation of the 2% cash incentive, the government expects to bag more than USD 20 bn in remittance in the current fiscal year. Point to point inflation came down slightly by 30 bps to 5.75%, but the 12-month average went up by 3 bps. Poor revenue collection and increasing ADP expenditure has led to the budget deficit crossing 5% in FY 2018-19 for the first time in 11 years and this trend has continued into the first four months of this fiscal year as the budget deficit grew by 130% during the period. Meanwhile, the government’s bank borrowing to finance this deficit has exceeded the whole year's target within the first half of the year itself (101.4%), digging a deeper hole in the banking sector. A solution for the banking sector's woes is in the works as a bank reform commission tasked with determining appropriate reforms for the sector is in the offing and a Public Asset Management Company is also being formed to give the country’s financial sector a fresh start.

LR Global managed funds have consistently beat the market with over 40% cash dividends. Despite a flat market since 2010, LR
Global managed funds have materially outperformed the benchmark index.
Our funds perform resiliently even when the market experiences a bearish phase. For instance, DBH1STMF and GREENDELMF
successfully disbursed attractive dividends with their commencement in 2010 even though the market crashed in that same year.
The cumulative dividend yield of our funds in the last five years indicate that our unitholders have been the recipient of attractive
returns as a result of investing in our mutual funds.
Our ten years of tested investment process has generated attractive returns, including attractive cash dividends. Our tested
investment process includes security selection, asset allocation and an ongoing risk management process.

CAPITAL MARKET UPDATE
Monthly Sector Return Sector Contribution to Total Turnover
The P/E ratio of majority sectors also increased with the overall market, but stocks still remain at attractive prices.
LHBL’s price hike resulted in the cement sector marking the highest gain while the telecom sector recorded the second highest loss as displeased investors offloaded GP’s shares due to low dividend declaration.
The stability and strong fundamentals of the pharmaceutical sector alongside cheap industrial and textile stocks drove investors to continue to binge on these stocks.
The DSEX gained 17 points (0.38%) during the period amidst a highly volatile environment.

LHBL became investors’ favorite pick with news of its amalgamation with Holcim and announcement of plans to transform into a building materials solution provider.
With the exception of LHBL, the remaining stocks in this list enjoyed the highest gain despite operating on a negative EPS or registering an EPS decline.
The majority of the top ten losers that lost significant value during the month also reported an EPS decline or a negative EPS, which sent investors on a selling spree.
January started off with low liquidity, as the average daily turnover (ADTV) mostly hovered below the USD 35 mn mark in the first 12 trading sessions. Market activity however gained momentum mid-month and attracted more investor participation. Hence, ADTV increased by around 1.5 times in the remaining period of the month, boosting the overall turnover in January.
GP reported a flat earnings growth for the year ended 2019 and declared the lowest dividend in 9 years. GP’s business
performance was affected by bandwidth restrictions, ban on network equipment import and new package approval by BTRC
alongside increased supplementary duty and SIM tax imposition in the last national budget.
While most top pharmaceutical companies reported positive earnings growth, ACI and ACMELAB recorded a negative growth. Additionally, almost all companies in the industrial sector declared poor earnings due to an overall slowdown in economic activity in the country.
