52 Week High
A 52-week high is the highest closing price of a stock or ETF in the last 365 days. Say for example you’re checking the history of a stock on 01-01-2022. Then its 52 week high will be the highest price it closed at between 01-01-2021 and 01-01-2022. 52 week highs are used as technical indicators by traders.
Holding Period
The holding period of a financial security is the time period between buying and selling the said security. It is the total amount of time for which the security has been held in the portfolio of an investor. At times, there’s a mandatory holding period attached to a security. During this mandatory holding period, the security can not be sold.
Consumer Price Index
The Consumer Price Index (CPI) measures how costly goods and services have become over time. It is calculated by measuring the weighted average of the percentage change in the price of a basket of goods and services.
If the CPI increases, it means that inflation is on the rise. In India, the CPI replaced Whosale Price Index (WPI) as the primary measure of inflation in 2013.

Hard Underwriting
A hard underwriting occurs when the underwriter agrees to buy their share of stock before the IPO opens. This is known as hard underwriting because in a regular underwriting process, the underwriter is liable to buy all unsold shares after the issue opens.
Convertible Debentures
A convertible debenture is a long term debt instrument that can be converted into equity on maturity. Convertible debentures are generally unsecured loans that small to mid-size companies take on in exchange for an interest rate.
Commodity
A commodity refers to physical goods and raw materials like aluminium, cotton, copper, sugar, steel, zinc, and others. Commodities are an essential part of the day-to-day life of individuals, companies, and industries.
But they can’t be traded like stocks in India. Instead, a commodity trader will enter into either of these three contracts to secure commodities or benefit from its price fluctuations:
- Futures contracts
- Options contracts
-
Cash contracts
These derivative contracts are traded on commodity exchanges in India like:
- Indian Commodity Exchange (ICEX)
- Multi Commodity Exchange of India (MCX)
- National Commodity & Derivatives Exchange Limited (NCDEX)
- National Multi Commodity Exchange of India (NMCX)
