IT stocks: A comeback which just needs a bit more confirmation; 7 stocks with an upside potential of up to 23%
Just before the expiry of the June series contract, bulls were seen in a segment of the market which has been long ignored by them — IT stocks. Because the upward movement was taking place at the end of expiry, one could not rule out the element of short covering. If one looks a bit deeper in the trend in IT stocks, two things have become clear. That while the news and opinion has been negative, the price action has not been so bad as has been painted. Now let's look at what happened in the IT sector and why there could be a case for contrarian buying. Yes, the sector has some headwinds which not many had thought would appear two years back. But the bigger question is whether this phase of underperformance is about to get over or not. It might be time to shed the bias of negativity around large IT players.
Small cap stock but business opportunity is big: 5 stocks from different sectors with an upside potential of up to 48 %
As nifty touches a new all time high, the desire to look at one's portfolio and see whether it has touched a new high. There is a high probability that if one had a higher exposure to small cap stocks the value of one's portfolio might not have touched a new high. The reason, a large part of the small cap market is in a consolidation mode. This is once again a reminder of the fact that there are phases where small caps will not perform and investing in small caps should be delinked from what is happening in nifty. So, if one is looking for small cap stocks, look at individual basis, which industry they are operating, is the industry size is large and is going to grow, only when Industry has tailwind of growth these players are going to see a growth and when the growth is more than ordinary it is than there is possibility of outsized gains.

Stock picks of the week: 4 stocks with consistent score improvement and upside potential of up to 39%

Given the event risk in terms of election results, we might see higher volatility as some profit booking takes place. If one is not a trader and knows how to hedge, it would be better to be cautious before investing. If one is taking fresh exposure to equity, ensure that there is some level of quality as far as the business and fundamentals are concerned.

Better suited for volatile market: 5 largecaps from different sectors with upside potential of up to 47%
In the last few days bears are not making any distinction between large or mid or small cap stocks they just crush everything, it might appear that there is no point in making a distinction between these segments of the market. But the fact is that periods like this are a reminder of many basic things which one should remember before taking any investment decision in equity. First and foremost, after buying a stock you will own a business and what business you own is more important than what is happening to nifty or any other indices. Second, if you are a real long term investor then short term corrections should not bother you as they have come in the past and they will come in future also. What one should look for is whether the underlying business is witnessing any change or not and whether that change is positive or negative for the business. Last but not the least, do your homework before investing and not after investing.
Volatility is an integral part of market: 4 midcap stocks from different sectors with potential upside of up to 39%
As the market gets volatile, questions are bound to be raised about whether the mid-cap segment would see a sharp correction or not. Fears about the kind of correction which was seen in March are bound to resurface. More than anything, the best way to navigate such market conditions would be to do two things, first stay with mid-cap stock with some track record in terms of fundamentals and give return to shareholders. Second, once you pick the stock, stay with it long term and dont sell in hurry due to any narrative which some global and domestic development might bring on the table. The reason, volatility is part of any market, but that should not determine your long term investment decisions.

As the market faces headwinds, questions are bound to be raised about whether the mid-cap segment would see a sharp correction or not.

Stock picks of the week: 4 stocks with consistent score improvement and upside potential of up to 38 %
After remaining under pressure for the first three weeks of March, there was some recovery at least in the broader market indices in the last two trading sessions of FY 24. It might be too early to call it a recovery, because if one looks at the market breadth, while it was positive, the way it cracked in the last one hour of trade indicates that a part of the market is still very much witnessing profit booking. So, it would be worthwhile to get more confirmation about bulls getting back to different corners of the street. In such times, it would be better to stay with stocks where there has been improvement in score due to one or the other reason. These selected stocks depict a strong upward trajectory in their overall average score which is based on five key pillars i.e. earnings, fundamentals, relative valuation, risk and price momentum. This implies that there has been a significant improvement in their market outlook in the given time frame.
IT stocks: There is a mixed picture by analysts, another round of warning on earnings coming; should you listen or ignore?
Late last week and early part of this week, the fall in the market was led by a few largecap IT stocks. The reasons, once again there are fears that as the Q4 earning season comes closer, large IT companies would be announcing lackluster results with no great guidance for FY 25. While the probability of that happening cannot be ruled out, the question is whether these all things have been built in the underperformance of the stocks. Stock Reports Plus, powered by Refinitiv, is a comprehensive research report that evaluates five key components of 4,000+ listed stocks - earnings, fundamentals, relative valuation, risk and price momentum to generate standardized scores.
Stock picks of the week: 4 stocks with consistent score improvement and upside potential of up to 27%
After the recent hit, there has been a bounce back in Nifty and sensex. Along with them there has also been an improvement in the market breadth But not enough to say that bears have once again have been beaten. At this point of time, one cannot rule out more profit booking which might emerge from global factors. The probability that the damage to stock prices in the mid-cap segment is still higher cannot be ruled out. In such times, if one is taking fresh exposure to equity, ensure that there is some level of quality as far as the business and fundamentals are concerned. These selected stocks depict a strong upward trajectory in their overall average score which is based on five key pillars i.e. earnings, fundamentals, relative valuation, risk and price momentum.

Stock picks of the week: 6 stocks with consistent score improvement and upside potential of up to 37%
For the first four trading sessions of the week, it appeared that bears are finally waking up but then on Friday, it was bulls all over the street again. Better than expected GDP numbers, and high GST collections, probably were the trigger point for the bulls to once again stay in control. While it might be too early to say, there is a possibility that the market's may see a more bullishness in nifty than broader market breadth. Essentially, the probability of a selective correction which is essentially led by the profit booking continues to be high. At this time if one is looking to increase exposure, it would be better that they should look for stocks where there are some improvements in the business operating matrix that tend to weather the storm better. These selected stocks depict a strong upward trajectory in their overall average score which is based on five key pillars i.e. earnings, fundamentals, relative valuation, risk and price momentum. This implies that there has been a significant improvement in their market outlook in the given time frame.
