Silver Medal Linings: In sports, business, or elections, it is the runner-up who defines a memorable winner
Evolution has hardwired into us the idea of a winner and, by the principle of complementarity, a loser. Out of breath and hiding away from a sabre-toothed tiger, managing to grab a seat on one of those Polynesian canoes headed to Hawaii (no stops), escaping the yearning jaws of prehistoric crocodiles at a watering hole, it was either ancient cremation rites or a few extra happy years for furthering hominid genes. Not a surprise that our genes learnt to be selfish, to think of a binary of win or lose.

Railways stocks: Stay bullish, just hedge a bit to avoid mistake of selling in haste: 7 outperforming railways stocks across different segments
Even the best of the rational brain can make wrong decisions when there is too much noise which gets created due to a narrative. Now for the last few days a narrative has been created that due to polls, FPI are selling. These kinds of narratives tend to hit the sector and stocks which are sitting with big gains and are dependent on government policy push. Railways was among the last sectors to get re-rated due to the policy focus.
