Elections still on for them? But macro structure has changed for good: 5 sugar stocks with upside potential of up to 27%
In a sector, where government policies have a major impact, the risk of any change in policy impacting the players is always present.

So a narrative might get built against the sugar stocks. What needs to be done, make a distinction between the reality that the balance sheets of these companies are much stronger than what they were, their business model is not just about sugar, but about part of the clean energy which is something which is going to grow.
