Carbures, one of the most speculative values of the national equities, is making headlines these days due to news that may give a new direction to the quotation of its prices. Because in effect, this listed company reinforces his relationship with Pemex, the Mexican oil giant. The Spanish technology company specialized in the design, engineering and manufacture of structures in composite materials has extended by seven months the two-year contract it signed in 2015 with Petróleos Mexicanos, Pemex, for the development of platforms and other oil infrastructures.
As a consequence of this extension of the contract, the termination of which has now been set in December of this year, entails an additional turnover of 83 million pesos Mexican companies (3,5 million euros) for the technology company throughout 2018. Carbures channels this extension of the contract with Pemex through its Mexican subsidiary, PYPSA, and the engineering tasks are limited to the onshore and offshore oil assets that the oil company mexicana has in the North and South regions of Mexico.
On the other hand, “the extension of this contract is a clear reflection of the trust and the good work that we have been doing since Pemex decided to start working with Carbures”, explains the president of Carbures, Rafael Contreras. In this sense, Carbures is one of the leading exponents of the aerospace and defense sector in Spain. Not very prolific, on the other hand, in the number of companies that engage in this business activity. Rather, being present in other geographical areas of the European continent, such as Germany and our neighboring France. With several companies of these characteristics that are listed on European equities.
Carbures: business line
In any case, Carbures is a company that has more than 15 years of experience as Tier2 in the aerospace industries and defense, to the point that it has taken off as a key factor in the manufacture of composite material parts and structures for the industry giants and the most relevant Tier1 companies in the world. Carbures is currently a company that produces composite parts for a large number of the latest civil and defense aircraft.
Currently, the division, like the rest of the organization, is working on the latest generation of sensorized structures, allowing to receive information in real time of any incident and of the behavior of the material to variations in the environment. One of the most unique projects is the construction of the Hyperloop capsule, the train that travels in a vacuum at a speed of approximately 1200 kilometers per hour.
More chicharro than capitalization
Despite all the triumphant statements by this national defense company, it looks more like a pea than the typical national equity values. Not surprisingly, there is a signal that identifies this trend and it is the fact that very few securities are exchanged every day in the financial markets of Spain. Sometimes with a ridiculous volume and in this way it is highly unlikely that it can be revalued in a stable and balanced way. It is above all a value of those considered as peas and despite what their managers may say.
As a consequence of these very relevant characteristics, it is not a stock exchange proposal to have it in a more or less stable investment portfolio. There is a reason for you to understand this trend and it is as clear as that you have more than lose than win. Despite the latest contracts and with which it tries to attract a greater number of small and medium investors. Something that the latest figures from the financial markets deny in a very notorious way. Because you cannot forget that you are facing a very problematic stock market value despite the line of business it represents. This is a factor that should not go unnoticed from these precise moments.
It is listed at 0,30 euros per share
The time has come for you to know what its current market price is and it is around 0,30 euros per share. A very typical quote within the securities called speculators or peas and that will explain very well what can happen to you if you choose to open for this small company that is listed in one of the secondary equity indices. Because in effect, Carbures is integrated into the Alternative Stock Market (MAB) which is governed by its own contracting conditions. And that it is very exposed to excessively volatile movements in all the values that are integrated in it. To the point that it is very complicated to operate with its values as you can understand from the beginning.
On the other hand, you cannot forget that values such as Carbures are they are very erratic from all points of view and whatever the strategy you are going to use from now on. By being based on expectations rather than business realities and that can lead to your prices plummeting in a really short space of time. Do not forget it because you can fall into a huge error if you take positions at this value during the next few weeks. Not surprisingly, you can still have a certain downward journey that can make you lose a lot of money on investment.
It moves with high volatility
If the actions of this company for defense are distinguished by something, it is because of their high volatility. Because in effect, it can generate divergences in their prices up to 5% or even more intense. Where with very few titles, the price of the company can move in one direction or another. For this very reason, only investors with more experience in the equity markets can handle themselves with some agility to try to make a profit on their savings successfully.
Of course, it is not easy to operate with this company that is currently listed on the Alternative Stock Market (MAB). If not, on the contrary, it requires a special technique that not all small and medium investors can contribute. Where risks are present every day in your price and there can be really very complex situations for everyone. Not surprisingly, Carbures is within that very special group of securities that trade below the euro unit and this in itself means many things about the most relevant characteristics of this particular security.
Operational with this value
From another perspective, it is necessary to measure what are the benefits that a market value like this one that we are talking about can provide. Because it presents a series of identity signs that it will be very easy for you to recognize them to undertake your investments, of course if this is your main desire. Starting from the premise that we are not dealing with a common equity value, such as Endesa, BBVA or Inditex, to cite just a few examples. In any case, Carbures will be characterized by an important range of contributions.
- First of all, it is a highly listed company small cap and from which it may cost you some effort to get in or out of their positions. At least at the price that you would like to carry out the buying and selling operations. At the risk of being hooked on the value.
- Of course it is not no benchmark of national equities. In other words, the Spanish stock market can go up widely and Carbures shares can go down with great intensity or vice versa. It is not governed by the patterns of other values on the continuous market.
- It is true that you can earn a lot of money with their operations, but for the same reason leave you many euros by the way. It is a very complex scenario that may not compensate you in the investment strategies that you are going to make from now on.
- You have in equities another series of stock values that are calmer to have in your portfolio or at least to be calmer in their positions. Without going any further, within the benchmark index of the national stock market, the Ibex 35. It may be more practical to take positions in some of its members.
- Carbures' business line is not speculative, but its development in the financial markets. This makes you have many doubts to know whether or not it is convenient for you to open positions in a company of these characteristics.
- It was a value that years ago it was fashionable but it was useless and proof of this is that at the moment it is not trading above 0,40 euros per share. This fact is giving you more than one clue about what you have before your hands with this company.
- And finally, remember that this is one of the favorite values of the more speculative investors. Where they try to earn a lot of money in a very short space of time. Something that is not always achieved.
