Defence stocks: Long runway, hedge a bit to avoid narrative-based decisions; 8 PSU & Pvt sector stocks, 4 with upside potential of upto 44%
In an election season, there are bound to be times when one or the other narrative may make one question about whether one should sell the stocks. The underlying reason would be fear of losing the gains on which one is sitting. Especially when it comes to sectors like defence, railways and others which have seen a strong re-rating and siting with big gains and already there has been skepticism about their stock price moving ahead of time. Now let's look at the issue in two ways, first is whether the fundamentals of the sector are on a strong foot and business is fine or not. Second, how to hedge the exposure so that one is not forced to sell due to narrative, because the fact is that a continuation in policy push means that the companies have just started their journey. While defence PSUs are well known, there are other private sector players, whose lifeline is dependent on defence expenditure and in the last few years they have also done well, both on the street and in terms of real business. So, it is better that one should hedge and stay with them and not get jittery because of one or the other narrative which will keep hitting the street till 4th June.

Candidates of strong directional move on 4th June: 5 PSU stocks which have benefited the most due to government policy push and spending
In the last two years, it is a well known fact that every PSU stock has been re-rated by the street, right from perennial under-performers like oil marketing and refining oil companies to PSU banks. But if one looks a bit deeper there are some which have been re-rated more than others. The reason, these are PSUs which are from the sectors where the government has clearly decided are its priority areas and there has been a policy push for these sectors. A company which is going to be providing finance for the expansion of the solar energy network which is the next focus of the government. The overall demand runway for these sectors is longer which means overall growth will be higher when confirmation of policy continuity comes. Also they are in business where it would be difficult for the private sector to compete. Now because it is the policy push which matters, the continuity of tailwinds of higher government spending, will push them for another round of re-rating on the result day.
