There was a man named Raj who
was taking a stroll when he came
across a bunch of ragpickers.
They were scanning through
piles of garbage and waste.

He realized they were searching for valuable stuff that
sometimes accidently makes their way into the garbage.
This practice of the ragpickers reminded him of a term in
investing known as “Bottom Fishing”.

If we look at the stock market, the stock market's health is
largely dependent upon “NEWS” flow reflecting the state of
the macro-economic environment. In other words, a good
macro-economic environment leading to good and positive
“NEWS” flow improves “sentiments” of investors.

No investor would like to invest when the economic
environment is not conducive because the risks of investing in
adverse conditions are rather high.
Let's say a country which had favorable political conditions,
suddenly finds itself in the throes of terrorism. Under such
circumstances the stock market plummets to a level that is
commonly referred to as the “bottom”.

At such times, the stock prices of perfectly healthy and robust
companies also tend to test the bottom.
The sentiments are so discouraging that everything is viewed
from the same “pessimistic” lens and all companies good and
bad get painted by the same “gloomy and gray” brush.

However, such are times that present
the best opportunities to astute
investors. There are opportunities to
identify stocks that are quoting at
prices below their intrinsic values.

Such under-valued stocks can yield handsome returns when the
negativity in the macro-economic environment alleviates.
Identifying such valuable stocks in what is popularly known as
“Bottom Fishing” which translates to “fishing for good
companies when the markets bottom out.”
