    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.

    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.

    For medium to long term investors: 4 midcap stocks with right ratio matrix and upside potential of up to 30%

    It is never easy to find a good stock. Not for any other reason, but the fact of “ good stock” is an open ended term.

But when it comes to business and management , there is only one thing “good business” and “ good management” which has no open ended interpretation. A business which generates good cash flows and has large market size to grow and for management a clean balance sheet and good corporate governance.

If one looks at the reaction of the street to a positive surprise in Q4 results coming from a mid-cap company, it is very clear there is still lots of money which is ready to move into midcap stocks.

Don't panic if tomorrow due to what the US Fed does or anything happening in the Middle east, there is a correction. That will only happen, if one has done his or her homework before buying the stocks.
