PROPOSED CLASSIFICATIONS FOR PHILIPPINE STOCKS BASED ON MARKET CAPITALIZATION

 

Based on the ranges indicated in Part 2 and converting Dollars to Pesos at the rate of P50.00 to US1.00 gives us an initial basis for classifying Philippine companies based on market capitalization as indicated in Table 14 below.

 

Table 14

 

If we apply this table to Philippine companies, not a single one  would even qualify for the PhP 10 Trillion level.  Based on BPI Data as of Sept. 30, 2018  in terms of  market capitalization the highest in the PSE are Manulife Financial Corporation (MFC) with PhP 1.549 Trillion, SM Investments Corporation (SM) with PhP1.119 Trillion, Sun Life Financial, Inc. (SLF) with PhP 1.082 Trillion and SM Prime Holdings

Considering that the PSE has only about 270 plus listed companies, compared to more than 4,000 in the United States, I am proposing a more practical approach by not  using   the Mega Cap Classification while adopting the rest.  We have to adjust the cut-off for the Nano Cap by including companies with market capitalizations below PhP 1 Billion for a more even distribution  as indicated in Table 15.

 

Table 15

The Market Capitalization of a stock is usually provided in the Stock Quotation of your online broker. If not provided, you can always go to PSE EDGE (www.edge.pse.com.ph) to get your data.

Table 16 shows the Philippine stocks listed in the PSE classified accordingly based on the proposed Market Capitalization.

 

Table 16

My reason for the proposed Market Capitalization is to properly classify the Micro Cap and the Nano Cap.  Basically, these are the companies whose trends are relatively flat but go parabolic when they breakout.  It will be our hunting ground and the subject of my next book: “Momentum Trading with TRT – A Definitive Guide for Daytrading and Scalping the Philippine Stock Market.”

Good luck on all your trades.

NOTE: No change in numbering of Figure is made so that those who have my books, “The Responsible Trader – a Thinking Person’s Guide for Trading the Philippine Stock Market” and “Swing Trading with TRT – a  Definitive Guide for Swing Trading the Philippine Stock Market”  can refer to them easily.
