Safir Anand Shares Investment Success Story As Bosch India Shares Hit 52-Week High

Bosch Ltd., the Indian subsidiary of Robert Bosch GmbH, the German engineering, and technology MNC, hit a new 52-week high on Wednesday after a big upcycle in recent weeks — a move that value investor Safir Anand had called back in August 2022.

What Happened? Anand took to Twitter to recall a tweet from August 3, 2022, when he’d added more Bosch India stock to his portfolio after a strong outlook call with analysts by Bosch’s board of directors.

Anand who’s also a renowned IP lawyer said he’d managed to buy Bosch stock at a relatively reasonable price.

The reason for Bosch stock trading at a relatively low price back in August 2022 was “due to fears on IC [internal committee] overlooking CO's investments and ability to transform big,” Anand says.
