What are the hottest stocks on the Spanish stock market?

The hottest stocks on the stock market are those that are more active in their price, even in an excessive and even irrational way. And of course to the taste of the most speculative investors with their operations. These movements are due, not only to its own conditions in its equity price, but also to the corporate operations that can develop in the not too distant future, and that generate significant gains (or losses) in the same trading session.

It is enough to review the offer presented by the Spanish continuous market to detect a series of companies that operate under these characteristics. It will not be difficult for you to find them as you can see in this article. And that they usually import a percentage of increases or decreases in their price above the other values. It is common for you to see how they have been boosted in the financial markets by more than 5%, and vice versa. A paradise, without a doubt, to make your operations profitable in a few days, and in some cases, even in the same session, with intraday operations.

If you want to have strong emotions, you are undoubtedly your best choice, above other more stable ones that do not offer excessive variations in their prices.

And they are securities from which you can obtain a splendid profit, although with some caution, because you can be trapped in them, and the losses can weigh down your investment for many years.

If you want to know what are the very special values ​​that these characteristics present, in this article you will find a series of proposals, that only the most aggressive investors will be in a position to operate with them. Their risks will be significantly higher, but in many cases they currently constitute a real buying opportunity for the low prices at which its shares are traded. Completely unimaginable a few years ago.

The time has come for you to know the names of these listed companies. Surely most will be on the lips of all savers, yours too, but there will be others that will surprise you, and may even give you an idea of ​​how to channel investments from now on. A good part of these proposals come from companies with great specific weight in the Spanish benchmark index, the Ibex-35. It is convenient that you take this into account when preparing the investment portfolio. They are not peas, as you may have guessed at the beginning.

ArcelorMitall, stocks bearish

If there is a stock with a clear downward trend in recent years, it is none other than this steel company. Its negative process in the financial markets seems to have no end. It always seems that it can go up in its price, but in the end the same thing always happens: its prices plummet, and in what way, as you can see in its charts.

During the last twelve months its shares have depreciated by more than 50%. That is, if you invested 10.000 euros in this company, now you will only have around 4.000 euros available. Not in vain, in this period its shares have gone from trading 10 euros to only 3, which is what it currently marks. Its crashes are very virulent, for many days, like the rallies it has in the markets, although these are rather limited as they are specific rebounds.

At the current levels at which it is listed, there are several financial analysts who believe that a first position could be taken to try to make the savings profitable in the medium or long term. Its potential for revaluation is enormous, but it needs to be realized. Something that has not happened so far. It is greatly affected by the drop in consumption in the Chinese economy, but above all due to the depreciation of base metals in international markets

Repsol, spinning with oil

Another of the conflicting values ​​where they exist, and that is weighed down by the brutal fall in the price of black gold. Your dependence on this financial asset is maximum, and as long as their prices do not recover there will be nothing to do with the Spanish oil company. It presents a discount in its prices more than notorious. And when it rises again, its explosion will be very vertical, to the delight of small investors who have taken positions.

Just twelve months ago its price was around 19 euros. Now, he is fighting not to lose the barrier of 9 euros per share. In this case, its depreciation in the markets has also gone very far, losing their shares 60% of their value. With a rare virulence, and from which he suffered in previous exercises. As a positive element, it has a high dividend, and one of the most profitable of the Spanish selective, of almost 8%. An incentive for the most defensive investors in the market.

Abengoa or the resolution of your problems

This Sevillian company is the paradigm of conflicting values, and whose operation is the most difficult of all, at least until its financing problems are resolved. In a few weeks his shares have gone from trading 3 euros to a single unit, and as a result of his serious financial problems. You can also earn a lot of money by opening positions in the security, but at the risk of losing almost everything. The equation between profitability and risk in this case is not attractive.

It is a very sensitive alternative that will surely not be suitable for your interests, especially if you are not used to operating with such dangerous companies due to price fluctuations. That is why it is not surprising that stock brokers do not recommend taking positions, but rather the opposite. And of course while the future of the company is not definitively clarified.

FCC, the worst of the construction companies

The bad economic situation that this company is going through is one of the reasons why it is currently trading above the 6 euro barrier. And after having stayed for a long time above 10 euros. The composition of its shareholders is another source of controversy that is damaging its evolution in equity markets.

Is even seeing surpassed by the increase in contracts in other rival companies within its own sector. Even so, and if its financing problems are solved in the short term, it has another of the most expansive revaluation potentials of the stock markets. In spite of everything, it does not finish taking off, even having the favorable opinion of some brokers who recommend their purchase to customers.

Sacyr, excessive dependence on Repsol

It is another of the great victims of the latest falls in Spanish equities. But in this case under a clearly atypical explanation in the sector. Your excessive exposure to oil as a result of the integration of part of its shares in the oil company Repsol. From this scenario, it is not surprising that its performance has been worse than other construction companies during the last twelve months.

It is another of the cases of very vertical falls, plummeting from 3 euros to the euro and a half that its shares are currently worth. Its association with black gold has only worsened its technical aspect, with large depreciations. Even, neither the aid of the economic recovery has benefited him to boost his prices in the markets, to the despair of its small and medium shareholders.

Gamesa, in the heat of mergers

Although we have talked about hot stocks that have shown a clearly downward trend, it is necessary to name a company that has developed the reverse movement. This is Gamesa, which has allowed investors to have large capital gains if they bought its shares a year or so ago. Its appreciation in the financial markets has been continuous and brilliant, with daily revaluations that have reached almost 10%, even more in some sessions.

The manufacturer of wind generators In a statement to the National Securities Market Commission (CNMV), it admitted last week "the existence of conversations aimed at a potential integration of certain wind energy businesses with Siemens by way of a merger operation." This news has been celebrated by the markets with increases in their price of 18%, and whose movements can be sharpened even more during the next trading sessions.

Telefónica or the ballast of Brazil

And finally, the Spanish telecommunications operator cannot be forgotten. And despite becoming one of the most stable values ​​in recent decades, this time it has not been able to play this role. Its shares have depreciated significantly, going from 14 to 9 euros, with a decline close to 30%. When just six months ago it showed one of the best aspects of the selective index.

Your exposure to Brazil It has been one of the most important channels to shape this downtrend in financial markets. Not surprisingly, the latest economic data for this Latin American country indicate that it has entered a recession, and will affect the accounts of the company chaired by César Alert. However, it has as a positive element, one of the most profitable dividends on the Spanish stock market, which is made through two annual payments, in the months of June and November. With a profitability of more than 5%.
