Stock picks of the week: 5 stocks with consistent score improvement and upside potential of up to 43%
While the indices might be witnessing correction on intra intra-basis, the broader markets are still very much under the control of the bulls. There is greater likelihood of bullish sentiment continuing, so be bullish but more than anything else in the long term what matters for a stock is earnings and valuation. So be selective, avoid impulsive investing, and keep reviewing one’s portfolio and stay away from penny stocks especially. It is very likely that some of the penny stocks will fly and be distributed amongst retail investors. We look at stocks which have witnessed a continuous rise in their score in the last one month. 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.

Smallcaps: Don't be afraid of narrative against them, but surely check critical points: 5 stock from different sectors for long-term investors
Soon after election results, there was and probably still there is chatter on the street that small caps are not going to see the same kind of performance as they have seen in the last two years. Can anyone argue against a broad based statement ? Probably, No. But then expecting a small cap rally all the time is also incorrect. There are more than 2000 small caps stocks, a handful are actually worth looking at and even fewer worth having in a portfolio. If one is able to get the right of the small cap stock then the returns are extremely high, but at the same time, risk of getting it wrong and capital erosion is ever present. At times when one cannot rule our phases of volatility, for investors looking for small caps, some rules need to be followed to avoid wrong decisions of buying in haste or selling in panic.

In the last ten years, there are many industries which have either emerged as fresh plays or there are some which have emerged due to the fact that troubles they were facing have gotten over. This led to the emergence of a new set of large cap companies. A number of them have a strength which is not easily replicable either because of the fact that industry is such that it can have only one or two players, in case of other the need of service and size of the industry is so big that there is room for everyone to grow and this particular player has its house in order to grab bigger share and grow more efficiently.

Own midcaps? Do a check & balance exercise to avoid decision of haste: 7 midcaps from different sectors with an upside potential of upto 49%
Every now and then the market goes through phases, where it prefers a certain set of stocks, not based on sector but based on the overall market cap. So, sometimes it is large caps, at other mid-caps. Now this partially happens, due to the flows which are coming to markets. For example, if more flows are coming to mid-cap or multicap schemes there is bound to be out performance in the mid-cap space. Now what it does is that it tends to create a sudden surge in mid-cap. Similarly when there is an outflow like the kind of one which we saw in March this year, midcap stocks tend to decline sharply. Essentially, it is the flows which impact the broader matrix of how midcaps behave. So there are phases not owning a midcap stocks appeared to sin and then there phase, where owning them appears to be sin. But if one focuses on the underlying business and some critical parameters, there is a possibility of getting rid of these phases of anxiety which keep coming to the street and create long term wealth.
