Higher ability to withstand sudden headwinds: 5 largecap stocks with right mix of RoE & RoCE
There are two kinds of risk in equity markets, first the overall market or asset class risk. Second is individual risk. First risk is not under control of anyone, because it can hit the market due to any reason, right from any geopolitical uncertainty to any monetary event in any part of the world. Probably the first kind of risk got played recently with the flip flop of the US and development in the middle east. The second risk which is individual risk is about the choice of the stock which one buys. In equities after a point of time it is more important to manage individual risk than to take risk. In equities the risk is more in the short term, over longer term, it is not very high. One way to manage risk is that when valuations are high, move to companies which have strong and large balance sheets and have seen many economic cycles and have survived the slowdowns in the past.

Relative safety in a volatile market with a reasonable growth premium: 4 largecaps and 1 midcap stock with right PEG ratio
When a sector gets discovered we see a sudden rush of money getting into that sector. The reason is that the earnings of the companies in that sector are likely to grow faster and it makes sense to pay more for a stock whose earnings grow at a faster rate. Now, how much more should be paid is the question. One of the ways is to determine by dividing a company’s PE multiple by its growth ratio. Look carefully at the PEG ratio which in the long-term indicates many things in a better manner than most other alternatives like PE which tend to create a mirage of value.
