Summers are over. Should a tactical trade turn into a long-term investment? 5 AC & white goods stocks which surged with the rising temperature
There are many sectors which make it to headlines at a particular time of the year. Like we would see agriculture and irrigation stock coming to headline around budget time, hotel stocks during holiday season. So, while they are cyclical stocks, because their cycles are much shorter as compared to typical cyclical stocks like metals, where cycles may last for many years, they are not typically classified as cyclical stocks. But essentially they are and cyclical stocks are more tactical trade rather than long term investment, which you can buy and forget for years. There is another set of companies who also make it to the headline and probably to the list of top gainers around the same time every year. Companies whose fortunes are linked with what happens in the summer season. This time again it happened, right from AC makers to fan makers to an ice cream company. All have witnessed an upward movement. Should be kept for it is time to say goodbye till next season.

IT stocks: A comeback which just needs a bit more confirmation; 7 stocks with an upside potential of up to 23%
Just before the expiry of the June series contract, bulls were seen in a segment of the market which has been long ignored by them — IT stocks. Because the upward movement was taking place at the end of expiry, one could not rule out the element of short covering. If one looks a bit deeper in the trend in IT stocks, two things have become clear. That while the news and opinion has been negative, the price action has not been so bad as has been painted. Now let's look at what happened in the IT sector and why there could be a case for contrarian buying. Yes, the sector has some headwinds which not many had thought would appear two years back. But the bigger question is whether this phase of underperformance is about to get over or not. It might be time to shed the bias of negativity around large IT players.

Stock picks of the week: 5 stocks with consistent score improvement and upside potential of up to 25%
Every now and then the nifty keeps witnessing volatile movement, the difference this week was amidst all the intraday volatility because the bias of volatility has changed, nifty was able to touch a new high. Also because market breadth was positive, the trend for the majority would be bullish. Given the fact that macros are shaping for good, it appears that there is no reason for bulls to leave their control any time soon. While being bullish, be ready for a phase of volatility. In such times, if one is taking fresh exposure to equity, ensure that there is some level of quality as far as the business and fundamentals are concerned. These selected stocks depict a strong upward trajectory in their overall average score which is based on five key pillars i.e. earnings, fundamentals, relative valuation, risk and price momentum. This implies that there has been a significant improvement in their market outlook in the given time frame.

Big 4’s management consulting arms gain muscle
The management consulting business has been growing 25-30% for all firms in the last two years. At the Big Four, the total number of partners engaged in strategy, operations, and the top end of digital advisory — areas typically dominated by firms like McKinsey, BCG and Bain — stands close to 300, with consultant numbers at 5,500-6,000. However, the varying number of digital consultants each firm adds to management consulting complicates direct comparisons.
