High promoter stock pledges
See stocks with high promoter pledges. Promoters pledging their stocks is considered negative for the stock. Promoters may pledge their stake to raise loans, collateral, personal needs or for another venture. If the stock price keeps falling, the value of the pledged stock may fall below the collateral required triggering a 'margin call'. Stocks whose price have fallen and have high pledges are more suseptible to such 'margin calls'.
