Industries can be present in various categories like construction, manufacturing, light, heavy, durable, non-durable, domestic, and foreign among others. Based on this, automobile companies can be engaged in manufacturing, heavy and light vehicles, and other categories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What-is-industry-analysis\"><\/span><strong>What is industry analysis?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Industry analysis means assessing a market\/industry to understand its competitive dynamics. It helps investors understand a company\u2019s position compared to its peers. It helps gauge the overall attractiveness of the industry and the factors that determine a company&#8217;s success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Industry analysis tells what is happening in an industry in terms of demand-supply, competition within the industry and with other industries, prospects considering technological changes, and the influence of macroeconomic factors. All in all, it helps identify opportunities and threats for a company in the current scenario and future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This, in turn, gives you cues as to how well a company is positioned compared to its peers now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Types-of-industry-analysis\"><\/span><strong>Types of industry analysis<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are three common types of industry analysis:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Porter\u2019s Five Forces Analysis (Competitive Forces Model)<\/li><li>Broad Factors Analysis (PEST Analysis)<\/li><li>SWOT Analysis<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1-Porters-Five-Forces-Analysis-Competitive-Forces-Model\"><\/span><strong>1. Porter\u2019s Five Forces Analysis (Competitive Forces Model)<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This is one of the most famous models developed for industry analysis. It was introduced by Michael Porter in his book \u201cCompetitive Strategy: Techniques for Analyzing Industries and Competitors\u201d in 1980.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Porter, there are five forces that help in doing accurate industry analysis. They are as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>a. The level of competition in the industry<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Intense competition in an industry forces companies to battle against each other to gain dominance. Competitive battles can take the form of anything from price wars to new products and advertising campaigns or an expanded product portfolio. Additionally, government restrictions, labour union norms, and a lack of product\/service differentiation also tend to intensify competition among the companies. Together, these reduce the profit potential of the company in the industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>b<\/strong>. <strong>Threat of substitutes of products or services<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most companies in an industry compete with each other as they produce substitute products. Such substitutes limit the earning potential of the company when the industry imposes a ceiling on the prices. Substitution can be fought by product differentiation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>c. Bargaining power of buyers<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In an industry with more competitors and a single buyer constituting a large share of the market sales, the bargaining power lies with customers. They are in a position to negotiate lower prices for better quality or ask for additional discounts. This can impact the prices of products and services significantly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>d. Bargaining power of suppliers<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A company enjoys bargaining power if the industry has only a few sellers\/suppliers. If there are more suppliers, they have the bargaining power and can quote prices, quality, and discounts according to their needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, the aviation industry has only two significant aeroplane manufacturers\u2014Airbus and Boeing. Thus, the bargaining power of suppliers in the aviation industry is very high, and the companies can\u2019t do much to negotiate favourable terms for themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>e. Barriers to entry<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This indicates the ease of entry into the industry. If it is easy to enter the industry, companies constantly face the risk of new competitors. As more companies enter, the availability of substitute products limits the scope of increasing prices. If the entry is difficult, the company with a competitive advantage enjoys the benefits for a longer period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, entry barriers in the aviation industry are high, given it is an asset-heavy space and is subject to immense legal and regulatory requirements. Therefore, any company that enjoys a competitive advantage stand to benefit for a longer period of time in this industry. Some of the listed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tickertape.in\/blog\/best-aviation-stocks-in-india\/\">aviation stocks<\/a> are Vistara, Indigo, GoAir, Spicejet, and Air India.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2-Broad-Factors-Analysis-PEST-Analysis\"><\/span><strong>2. Broad Factors Analysis (PEST Analysis)<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Commonly called the PEST Analysis, this type of industry analysis evaluates the impact of Political, Economic, Social and Technological factors on an industry. PEST analysis helps analyse the macro environment in which the industry operates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li><strong>Political factors<\/strong> include government policies and regulations relating to taxes, tariffs, environment, labour laws, trade, ease of doing business, and overall political stability. Unfavourable policies can adversely impact a company\u2019s business. For instance, the increase in windfall taxes on oil companies will most likely reduce their profits.<\/li><li><strong>Economic factors<\/strong> include inflation, interest rates, exchange rates, GDP growth rates, capital market conditions, etc. In case the capital market conditions are not good, companies may find difficulty in raising finance for their operations. This could hamper their growth.<\/li><li><strong>Social factors <\/strong>are the trends in society, like demographics, population growth, and behaviour in terms of health and fashion, etc. The young population in any area is bound to get older in a few years. If a company is catering to the younger generation now, it will have to offer products for older generations in a few years to stay relevant. If not, it will be forced to shut shop and relocate elsewhere.<\/li><li><strong>Technological factors <\/strong>are the developments that change the way a company operates and the way of living life. For example, the advent of the internet. A washing machine company cannot survive if it doesn\u2019t offer innovative products and keep up with rivals in technologically-advanced times.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3-SWOT-analysis\"><\/span><strong>3. SWOT analysis<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>SWOT stands for Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats. SWOT analysis helps summarise various industry forces and determine their impact on the company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Importance-of-industry-analysis\"><\/span><strong>Importance of industry analysis<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Industry analysis helps an investor understand the market factors that tend to impact the company in question. These factors can be the industry\u2019s demand-supply forces, demographics, competitiveness, entry and exit costs, and so on.<\/li><li>Industrial analysis also helps understand if the industry has reached the saturation point or if there is growth potential. If there\u2019s no growth in the industry, the company can also become saturated unless it ventures into newer sub-industries.<\/li><li>You can compare a company with its peers to understand how it is performing versus them. Do this by comparing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tickertape.in\/blog\/financial-ratios\/\">financial ratios<\/a> and other key metrics of the stock in question with the industry average (the average of all companies in the industry\/competitors).
