Deal Team – At Your ServiceConsumer Durables Thematic: Warming up for summers...

• The best known indicator of seasonal progression is outdoor temperature. As the summer of 2017 isjust around the corner, we take a look at the price charts of some air conditioner stocks, whichappear to be warming up for a rally ahead of the summers when the demand for air conditioners(AC) really starts picking up Seasonality is defined as a pattern that occurs at given times within the(AC) really starts picking up. Seasonality is defined as a pattern that occurs at given times within thecalendar year. The reason we like to look at seasonality is because technical analysis is based on thepremise that price patterns repeat themselves and seasonality is rooted in this very same concept

• The air conditioner (AC) industry recorded a mixed Q3 performance wherein companies recorded acontraction in margin (200 bps YoY) led by higher discounts to dealers amid demonetisation. TheMay-July period (strong summer) is considered to be the strongest period for sales of AC andcontributes ~30% to overall annual sales. Considering the strong summer ahead, we believe volumegrowth of cooling products is expected to pick up as retailers have gradually started buildinginventories to meet seasonal demand from the south and north. This will also be supported by risingcash availability in system and recent pay hike (due to implementation of Seventh Pay Commission).

Based on these observations, we believe that the secondary correctivephase has approached time wise and price wise maturity and the stock is set to resume its primary uptrend therebyproviding good investment opportunity from a medium term perspective to ride the next major up move.
