What is Holdings: Definition & Meaning Explained

Interest Coverage Ratio

Interest Coverage Ratio (ICR) is used to determine the likelihood of a company’s ability to pay interest on existing outstanding debt. A low ICR typically indicates that a company is less likely to pay interest.

In fact, it indicates that the company may be heading towards bankruptcy. A higher ICR means that a company’s financial health is solid and more than likely to pay interest on existing outstanding debt.

Candlesticks

Candlesticks are technical charts used in trading to understand price movements. A candlestick chart will show the following information: There are three components to a call option:

High (for the period)
Low (for the period)
Open price
Closing price

The main body of the candle will be green if the closing price is higher than the opening price and red if the closing price is lower than the opening price.

Long green candles mean more investors and traders want to buy a stock. Long red candles mean more investors and traders want to exit a stock.

Convertible Bonds

A convertible bond is a hybrid security that’s initially designed to be a debt instrument that pays a fixed interest rate in exchange for a loan. Once the loan’s tenure ends, the holder can decide to take one of either action:

Don’t convert bond: face value of the bond is transferred to the holder on maturity

Flipping

Flipping is the act of buying and selling an asset quickly to make a profit. The term is commonly used in real estate where an investor buys a property and sells it within a short span of time, say days or weeks, to make a quick buck.

The real estate investor may flip the property after making small improvements to it, thereby increasing the chance of making potentially lucrative returns. Flipping is also a term used to describe an investor’s actions during an IPO.

For example, let’s assume Mr. Apple invests in the IPO of Juice & Co. and intends to sell the shares days or weeks after the company’s stock is available on the secondary market.

The stock soars on the first day of listing, right at the opening bell, and Mr. Apple sells. In such a case, Mr. Apple will have earned potential profits by flipping IPO shares.

Fibonacci Retracement

A Fibonacci Retracement is a predictive technical indicator that is used to determine possible direction or trend reversal of a stock or index’s price with horizontal lines for potential support as well as resistance levels.

Fibonacci retracement in action

The logic behind tuning to a Fibonacci Retracement is the assumption that prices will reverse direction towards a previous price-level, especially after a new trend is in motion.

Cash Reserve Ratio

Cash Reserve Ratio (CRR) is the amount of liquid cash a bank has to deposit with the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), calculated as a percentage of the total deposit of the bank. The latest Cash Reserve Ratio in India is 4.5%.

There are two important uses of CRR:

It acts as a reserve or collateral because banks borrow money from the RBI
The RBI decides the interest rate for borrowing based on the CRR

These two pointers become extremely important during high inflation as the RBI can hike interest rates with the assurance of having collateral from banks.
