Bearing the brunt today, but good for long term: 6 stocks from the financial services sector with upside potential of up to 30%
For all those who were again thinking why the financial services sector stocks are leading the recent phase of decline. A look into FPI holding patterns would throw the answer.

While it should be done for every sector, for some sectors it is extremely important to make a distinction between the narrative which is making rounds on the street and what is happening in the real business. The reason, it is a narrative which is going on the street which makes expectations high and when they are not met then investors end up making the wrong decision both at the time of buying and selling. First, a large market size does not mean that players will see all the growth in the short term, it might be a long term play when it comes to overall growth of the markets. So, while insurance is a big opportunity, it will pan out over a period of time. Second, a number of times, the name of both life and non- life and health insurance companies is taken in the same breadth. But they are very different in every aspect and the stock price movement will also follow a different trajectory.
