Genghis Trading Ideas for the week…
Equities
LONG-TERM BUY – EABL on recovery of financial performance
Released financial results indicated a rebound in Jun – Dec 2020 period (sales jumped 53.2% against Jan – Jun 2020 period), whose momentum is expected to continue this year with our outlook of diminishing risk of pandemic-related lockdowns.

Fixed Income
SELL IFB1/2021/16 at 11.50% - 12.00% levels.
Interest in the recently issued infrastructure bond has been the dominant theme in the fixed income asset class in the recent two weeks. We see scope of reducing holdings in the paper at 11.50% - 12.00% levels.
