Time to own Bitcoin? Chris Wood to trim Gold weightage and make way for Bitcoin investment

Bitcoin is again making headlines with the unreal upwards movement it recorded on the price charts recently, setting fresh all-time highs. The crypto currency has gained nearly 400% since March this year and over 200% since the beginning of this pandemic struck year. Investor’s interest in bitcoin has been gaining steam in 2020 and it’s not just small investors, institutions too have joined in cheering it. Seeing these developments, Chris Wood, global head (equity strategy) at Jefferies, has decided to introduce Bitcoin in its long-only global portfolio.

In his weekly newsletter, Greed & Fear, Chris Wood said that Bitcoin will be introduced in the long only global portfolio for US dollar-denominated pension funds. Chris Wood had made a case for owning Bitcoin back in June of 2019. The investment space for Bitcoin will be made by reducing the weight of physical gold bullion by 5 percentage points. “If there is a big drawdown in bitcoin from the current level, after yesterday’s historic breakout above the US$20,000 level, the intention will be to add to this position,” Chris Wood said last week.

Bitcoin institutionalisation

His views on owning the crypto currency have been strengthened by the ‘institutionalisation of Bitcoin’ and with custodian arrangements being made available. Retail investors can now buy into Bitcoin via quoted vehicles, unlike before when the risk of Bitcoin accounts being hacked was real. Wood also highlighted the case of Nasdaq-listed MicroStrategy, a business intelligence software company, that has invested in the Bitcoin equivalent of$425 million ($250m in August and$175m in September), amounting to almost 100% of its own treasury funds, to hold on its balance sheet.

MicroStrategy, in its filings to the SEC said that the aim is to make Bitcoin “the primary treasury reserve asset on an ongoing basis”, along with cash and short-term investments. “This marks a watershed moment in GREED & fear’s view since the auditors approved MicroStrategy putting Bitcoin on its balance sheet as did the SEC,” Chris Wood noted. He further highlighted that MicroStrategy’s market capitalization has risen 131% since announcing its investment in Bitcoin and the value of its Bitcoin holding has almost doubled to $917 million.

Gold not out

Although Chris Wood is trimming Gold’s weight, he said that this does not mean that he is going to give up on gold. “… the yellow metal should rally again if the Fed stays dovish in the face of the dramatic cyclical recovery that is coming on the other side of the pandemic, in line with GREED & fear’s base case,” he said.

PVR fundamentals intact despite near-term hiccups

PVR has scheduled a board meeting on December 18 to consider raising funds through issue of equity (or other instruments) by way of QIP (or other modes). We believe that the company is adequately funded to sustain operations for 6-7 months even if occupancy remains subdued and cash burn elevated at current levels. Additional funding would help reduce debt to enable investments in organic/inorganic opportunities post-Covid, or in event of resurgence of Covid-19.

PVR had liquidity of Rs 5.5 billion as at end-October 2020. It has to repay debt of Rs 1 billion by March 2021. As per our estimate, PVR is incurring Ebitda loss of Rs 500-600 million/month and interest expense of Rs 110 million/month at present (from November 2020).

Cash burn is higher (on expected lines) versus 1HFY21, as operations have resumed at subdued occupancy pending release of key movies. PVR is adequately funded to sustain operations for 6-7 months even if one assumes cash burn to continue at the current run rate.

PVR’s gross/net debt is about Rs 15 billion/Rs 10 billion as of date; equity fund raise would reduce leverage enabling PVR to invest in organic and inorganic growth opportunities post-Covid. We note that PVR raised Rs 3 bn in August 2020 through a rights issue.
