I remember asking about Coronation insurance on the group chat from the great minds but got no response and now it is reflecting on this guide. The stock has been on up and down movement, though it is not liquid enough.
Very valid observation . Coronation Insurance has indeed shown inconsistent price movement largely due to liquidity constraints. For stocks like this, conviction should come from fundamentals, while entries should be timed patiently because volatility can test emotions.
 
MTN Nigeria Communications Plc

The low P/E looks attractive, but the market is not mispricing blindly, it is pricing in regulatory risk, FX exposure, and capital intensity. The high RSI tells you something important:

This is not being bought because it is “cheap”, it is being bought because capital believes its future cash flows are more resilient than most alternatives. That’s a different kind of conviction.
Brilliant perspective
This is exactly the distinction many miss value vs conviction. MTN’s movement is less about cheap valuation and more about market confidence in its ability to sustain earnings despite macro and regulatory pressures. That’s a deeper layer of demand.

There's always correction in the market and that doesn't mean market is falling

It could be an opportunity for you to buy more at a discount
Well said
The difference between experienced investors and others is perspective while some see decline, others see discounted opportunity. The discipline is in identifying quality within that correction.
 
Coronation Insurance Plc is one of those low-liquidity stocks, so the price can move up and down quickly without strong volume behind it.
The movement you’re seeing is likely due to:
Low float
Few buyers and sellers
Speculative interest
That’s why it can look attractive but also risky.
For stocks like this, the key is patience and caution
Exactly
Low liquidity amplifies both upside and downside. That’s why discipline and a longer-term lens are especially important with stocks like this.
 
Thanks for the update. MTN’s strong momentum shows confidence in its earnings resilience, while C&I Leasing’s low RSI signals potential for a rebound. Both are worth watching, but timing and patience remain key.
Spot on
That conviction-driven demand is what sustains trends longer than expected. It’s less about “cheap” and more about confidence in future cash flows.
 
Coronation Insurance’s low liquidity means its price can swing quickly with small trades. The key here is patience—watch the fundamentals and don’t get swayed by short-term movements.
Exactly
Entry matters just as much as selection. Even the best stock can underperform if timing is ignored patience completes the strategy.
 
Exactly. The low P/E signals value, but the market is factoring in risks like regulation, FX, and capital needs. The high RSI shows strong buying momentum—not just cheapness, but confidence in MTN’s resilient cash flows. It’s conviction-driven demand, not a bargain hunt.
Strong point
Filtering out noise is key. Not every price move reflects real value especially in low-volume stocks.
 
Absolutely. Market corrections are normal and often healthy. They don’t signal a crash, but rather a chance to add quality stocks at a lower price. It’s about seeing opportunity where others see fear.
Brilliantly put
That mindset shift from fear to opportunity is what separates reactive traders from strategic investors.
