KRSNAA DIAGNOSTICS LTD Q4 RESULTS
Getting ready to end the 3-year exile: 5 stocks from diagnostics sector with upside potential of up to 53%
There are some businesses, where only a black swan event leads to sharp growth in profit. Otherwise the underlying nature is such that they don't have any sudden spike in their profits. But there is constant growth. The constant growth could be because of many reasons. It may be because of the fact that penetration of that good or service is very low and over a period of time as it improves, both top and bottom line keep moving upward. It could be because of the movement of business from the unorganized sector to the organized sector. Or due the fact that the “need” of that good or service is such that spending on it cannot be postponed. In the case of diagnostic business, it is all the three, or rather four. The fact is that in 2020, a black swan took place which led to the sudden spike in FY 2021 numbers, but then back to normal growth curve. Now for three years, there has been a painful process of partial normalization of valuation and end of price wars. Has the time come for extreme long term investors to bring them back on watchlist ?

Do Dr Lal Pathlabs' results indicate a turnaround for the sector? 4 stocks from diagnostic space, 3 with upside potential of up to 31%
Some sectors have a company which can be called as the bell weather of that sector and that is why its results of that company probably are indicative of what is happening in the sector. In case of the diagnostic, it is probably the Dr Lals path labs which would fit the criteria, it has national presence, large network, present in both physical and digital segment. So when the quarterly numbers come and they show improvement on many fronts then probably it is time to have a look at them more seriously and see if there is a possible turnaround building in the sector. This became even more important because these stocks had gained extremely high valuation and also popularity in terms of both retail and institutional participation. But then for close to two years, they have been a strong under performer in a strong bull market. Does this result mean that finally in terms of price war for customer acquisition over and now the valuation readjustment will start in the upward direction.

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. ET screener powered by Refinitiv’s Stock Report Plus applies different algorithms & filters to all BSE and NSE stocks, and lists stocks which fulfill the various criteria as specified into the algorithms & filters to find those which might help navigate the stock market.
Tackling volatility, qualitative & quantitative way: 4 small cap stocks with long term perspective
The way the market slipped on Friday, probably is another reminder that even the best of the bull market corrections are going to come. The problem with the corrective move is that if it sustains for longer, it is the small caps stocks which come under more pressure and shed an inordinate amount of weight. There is a technical reason for this, the liquidity in small caps stocks is lower as compared to large and midcaps. So, whenever there is a selling in this segment, the impact cost is always higher. But the other fact is that if one is able to hold on small at the time when correction is taking place, probability of more than normal return is also higher. But the question is how does one develop the ability to hold onto stocks when the narrative which is being governed by price action becomes so negative. The solution lies in combining a couple of things, which include qualitative and quantitative measure and last but not least ability to ignore noise.

Painful readjustment of valuations over? 4 stocks from diagnostics sector with upside potential of up to 31%
In the last four years, many sectors have made a comeback. However, there are few, who have probably a full life cycle in this short period of time. From all the love on the street which made them touch dizzy heights of valuations. Then a realization that the street is paying too much for them. It is about the diagnostic sector. From being part of a star portfolio manager tops picks, to him admitting that he made a mistake. Diagnostic stocks have seen a cycle. There is another side to the story. Every sector which goes through such cycles in the short term, tends to see a recovery. The only difference is the recovery time, both of the business and getting recognised once again by the street. So, these stocks will make a comeback, whether it happens in one quarter or after years is the question. But one thing is for sure, that if you are a long term investor, don't be in a hurry to get out of the sector.
