<a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/angel-broking-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:33510:1" rel="noopener">Angel Broking (ANGELBRK IN)</a>'s stock has risen &gt;4x over the last four months on the back of strong growth in the digital broking industry in India. However, we think the stupendous growth of &gt;17x in Angel's active client base over the past couple of years may not sustain. While the shift to digital and discount broking is inevitable, the recent growth seems to be temporary and will likely reverse led by high customer churn. Cyclicality and heightened competition in the sector will further adversely impact the fundamentals and lead to de-rating of the stock once the euphoria in the sector subsides. The market is also pricing in high optimism around Angel's potential to be a fintech platform. We again differ here based on our insights into Angel's customer base, competitive scenario and nascent track record of Angel in the quasi-passive quant-based asset management and wealth management space.

Executive Summary:  A slightly declining US interest rate yield curve aided in driving credit spreads tighter during the month of May while Asia’s bank credit market conditions remained largely positive, despite the recent flare-up in Covid-19 cases across the region. Global market liquidity metrics continued to push investors into risk assets and Asia’s bank debt benefitted from concerns in other parts of the market.Asia’s Tier 2 bonds slightly outperformed Additional Tier 1 (AT1) bonds during May. Both bank debt capital components generated positive total returns during the month. Given five-year effective durations, Asia's AT1 bonds have generated slightly positive total returns year-to-date while Tier 2 notes lag. As with April, Asia’s (x-Japan) US$-denominated bank bond performance diverged by duration during the month of May. Shorter-duration bonds outperformed and, for the most part, longer duration notes underperformed in Option Adjusted Spread terms.Longer duration, high BB rated bonds led spread widening over the month. These bonds were also predominantly Basel III debt capital securities. Unlike in April, there was a mixture of low and high spread bonds amongst underperformers. This suggests greater investor differentiation, via credit fundamentals, in longer duration notes.
