    Summers are over. Should a tactical trade turn into a long-term investment? 5 AC & white goods stocks which surged with the rising temperature

    There are many sectors which make it to headlines at a particular time of the year. Like we would see agriculture and irrigation stock coming to headline around budget time, hotel stocks during holiday season. So, while they are cyclical stocks, because their cycles are much shorter as compared to typical cyclical stocks like metals, where cycles may last for many years, they are not typically classified as cyclical stocks. But essentially they are and cyclical stocks are more tactical trade rather than long term investment, which you can buy and forget for years. There is another set of companies who also make it to the headline and probably to the list of top gainers around the same time every year. Companies whose fortunes are linked with what happens in the summer season. This time again it happened, right from AC makers to fan makers to an ice cream company. All have witnessed an upward movement. Should be kept for it is time to say goodbye till next season.

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.

    • Smallcaps: Narrative might go against them, but if chosen with right filters, don't bother, 5 stocks from different sectors with long term perspective

      When investing in stock markets, it’s crucial to make the distinction between high-quality and poor-quality businesses across the small, mid, and large-cap spectrums, as well as the difference between the intrinsic value of a stock and the overall value of the company. Certain niche small businesses may still generate significant returns over time if they are held long enough. On the other hand, if one's approach to small-cap investments is merely based on the absolute value of a stock with hopes of a tenfold increase, then it's a misconception. Stock market investing, whether in small, mid, or large caps, should not be driven by unrealistic expectations; otherwise, it leads to nothing but undue stress, rather than substantial returns.

      As election dust settles, making a come back along with bulls: 4 largecap stocks from different sectors with upside potential of up to 21 %

      As the bulls move from state of control to absolute control of the street, there are a couple of things which one needs to remember. One of the things which they throw out of the window is the “sense of risk”. It is this risk which needs to be given due importance in such time because even in raging bulls markets, there are periods of correction which come unannounced. We are not saying that a correction will come any time soon given the fact that the US Fed is clearly indicating that the interest rate will come down. But given the fact that valuations are still high, it would be better that one should be more cautiously bullish and more selective when putting in fresh money into stocks.

      Fresh tailwinds of export markets: 5 stocks from engineering sector, 4 with upside potential of up to 30%

      They say that tough times bring the best out of some. In case of India Inc, there are many examples where the economic slowdown post 2008 global financial crisis, made companies deal with all kinds of troubles and after various permutations and combinations they were able to find solutions, first to survive and then grow. In the case of engineering companies where the role overlapped to some extent with capital goods, it was the export market which turned out to be the solution. Because it is not easy to venture into the export market as there are large global players who ensure that it is not easy to get into their turf. For some companies it was a long drawn process which is now delivering results and leading to a situation where the return on capital and effort employed is much better today.

      Smallcaps: Don't be afraid of narrative against them, but surely check critical points: 5 stock from different sectors for long-term investors

      Soon after election results, there was and probably still there is chatter on the street that small caps are not going to see the same kind of performance as they have seen in the last two years. Can anyone argue against a broad based statement ? Probably, No. But then expecting a small cap rally all the time is also incorrect. There are more than 2000 small caps stocks, a handful are actually worth looking at and even fewer worth having in a portfolio. If one is able to get the right of the small cap stock then the returns are extremely high, but at the same time, risk of getting it wrong and capital erosion is ever present. At times when one cannot rule our phases of volatility, for investors looking for small caps, some rules need to be followed to avoid wrong decisions of buying in haste or selling in panic.

      Own midcaps? Do a check & balance exercise to avoid decision of haste: 7 midcaps from different sectors with an upside potential of upto 49%

      Every now and then the market goes through phases, where it prefers a certain set of stocks, not based on sector but based on the overall market cap. So, sometimes it is large caps, at other mid-caps. Now this partially happens, due to the flows which are coming to markets. For example, if more flows are coming to mid-cap or multicap schemes there is bound to be out performance in the mid-cap space. Now what it does is that it tends to create a sudden surge in mid-cap. Similarly when there is an outflow like the kind of one which we saw in March this year, midcap stocks tend to decline sharply. Essentially, it is the flows which impact the broader matrix of how midcaps behave. So there are phases not owning a midcap stocks appeared to sin and then there phase, where owning them appears to be sin. But if one focuses on the underlying business and some critical parameters, there is a possibility of getting rid of these phases of anxiety which keep coming to the street and create long term wealth.
