Being bullish & being cautious are not antonyms: 4 largecap stocks from different sectors with upside potential of up to 41%
There are a number of times when one hears on the street, that indices and stocks have gone so high, how much higher it can go, so forget it. Essentially the underlying feeling is that just because the nifty and sensex has moved up now it will not move so let's not invest. That is probably the worst mistake one makes because at every level, this narrative comes. When nifty was 20,000 this argument could have been made, now at 24,000 also this argument can be made and when nifty is much higher, the same argument will be made. One needs to look at the broader picture, there is no reason why one should not be bullish about India, but that does mean one should not be cautious in terms of selecting the stocks. so , continue to be bullish, also be cautious and invest in a manner that short term profit booking moves don't make you anxious.

With election results behind us, the focus of the street is on the first budget of this government. In the run up to the budget market may stay in range bound mode and post budget there could be a strong directional move.

So, while being bullish, one should also be more careful in selecting the stocks. See if the company has a track record of paying dividends. While the dividends are ignored in general by investors and more particularly in a bullish market as the whole focus is on capital gains. The fact is that a dividend is a reflection of the underlying business and that is what one owns when one buys a stock. We take a look at 4 stocks, which on one hand have seen an improvement in their score in the last one month, plus they have outperformed nifty and they also meet the certain critical criteria on financial ratios.
