Has the worst been priced in for Indian IT sector? 7 stocks with upside potential of up to 39%

Both globally and in India, there is an old principle in the stock market. When stock prices stop reacting negatively to bad news, probably the worst has been priced in or one can say that the stocks have bottomed out. When the stock stops reacting positively to good news, that is probably an indication that stock has topped out as all the good news has been priced. Look at what has been happening with the IT sector. Large cap companies are announcing their Q4 results, literally everyone is showing hardly any growth. Not giving any great guidance for the current year. Now look at the stock price reaction. When Infy announced its result post market, its ADR dipped sharply by 5 % but within less than two hours it was trading with a cut of less than 2 %. Same is the case with Wipro, bad results but stock price did not fall, infact it moved up. Now take the case of smaller IT companies, they declared slightly better than expected results, stocks jumped by 7 to 8 %. Is stock price movement indicating that the street has priced in all bad news or rather bad expectations? Does this warrant that long term investors should ignore the noise on the street about how AI will kill the Indian IT sector.

This summer look beyond AC stocks: 4 stocks from consumer electrical space with upside potential of up to 34%

In the last one month as the temperatures have been soring, the stocks related to air conditioner companies have been moving higher, with buy reports pouring in. There is another side of summer heat leading to higher sales. There are other consumer electrical goods companies which are not in air conditioners, but in other goods, like fans and goods like juicer mixers, whose demand is also strongly linked to intensity and duration of summer month. But these stocks have not seen the kind of run up, Probably because they have been facing headwinds of higher competition. The question is whether the push of summer sales, help them recover fast and if that was to happen, these stocks which were probably best performing stock till late 2021, may see getting back interest.

These midcap stocks with 'Strong buy' & 'Buy' recos can rally over 25%, according to analysts

From the start of the financial year FY 24, midcap stocks have been making a comeback. If one looks at their recent performance in the last few days of volatility, it is clear that there is not much selling pressure and also the way street is rewarding a good Q4 result, it is clear that there is enough liquidity on the street as far as mid-caps are concerned. If one goes on by the market breadth, there are indications that bulls might be back in control. Keep an eye on liquidity and the market breadth in the next few sessions as that will determine what happens to mid-cap stocks in the medium term. If the market breadth stays positive then it is very likely that we might see more strength in mid-caps. ET screener powered by Refinitiv’s Stock Report Plus lists down quality stocks with high upside potential over the next 12 months, having an average recommendation rating of “buy” or "strong buy".

Intent of global acquisitions, has the tide turned for the long term? 5 pharma stocks with upside potential of up to 31 %

Just yesterday, there was a news report which suggested that the French government is planning to block the sale of a French generic drug maker and two Indian pharma companies were in fray to buy it. Now it might just appear to be another news, but probably it signals more than it. It is after years of being bogged down by US FDA and other issues of shrinking margins, The move indicates that at least some of them have reached a point where they can again think of inorganic growth to boost growth. There are others who instead of looking for expansion outside India, have been buying products and brands from MNC players. Then there is a third set of companies, which might not look at inorganic acquisition but only look for organic growth and enter new markets and segments. In all conditions, one thing is clear that the condition of the Indian pharma companies is much better than what it was 5 years ago. As the learning of the last decade and debacles get implemented, does it increase the probability of them getting re-rated on a sustained basis?

Not in good books today, but better placed for long term : 4 large cap stocks with upside potential of upto 36%

There are phases, when bulls don't make any distinction between large or mid or small cap stocks they just push everything up. At that time, it might appear that there is no point in making a distinction between these segments of the market. But the fact is that when bearish times come or even a correction comes, the first phase is led by decline in large caps but the price wise pain is felt more in mid and small caps. While given how things are panning out for the short term we might see a phase, where large well managed, strong balance sheets and strong brand companies might appear to be stocks, where there is lack of momentum in a raging bull market, hence they can be overlooked. Some of them might be facing challenges on the business side, but the fact remains that they have a track record of being able to deal with such challenges and coming out even stronger. So, don't dismiss them, just because of short term underperformance and bad narrative on the street

Beneficiary of structural changes: 7 mid and smallcap private sector banks with upside potential of up to 46%

Post 2015 and then again in 2018, RBI did a strong rejig in various banking policies, right from capital adequacy to the operational matrix, to loan disbursement mechanism. In sectors like banking when a regulatory rejig takes place, every player has to follow a new set of rules. It is not possible for any entity to escape the regulatory regime. This leads to a situation where entities which are large or are already following best practices are able to make transition to a new regime in a short span of time and are the first one to get rewarded on the street. Others who take time to the follow which normally are smaller or mid sized players tend to get attention later. So, While ICICI and SBI have been in the limelight for a long time, mid and small-sized banks, who took time to clean up their act are likely to get the attention. They have very different hybrid kinds of ownership, a sort of quasi private sector banks. These are private sector banks of mid-sized banks which operate in particular regions.

Turnaround after battling many headwinds? 4 microfinance stocks with upside potential of up to 38% in next one year

Right from the Covid-19 crisis to the tightening of regulatory requirements on capital in a short span and increasing competition, all these three headwinds hit the microfinance industry in one go. The result, the stocks that at one point in time were getting high valuations cracked sharply and underperformed. This is how the journey of the last few years of microfinance companies can be described. However, given the fact that they are the lender to the most marginalized section of society where the requirement of capital is always high, these companies have been able to manage and have been able to survive though growth has not been as expected. In any sector, the phase of headwinds comes at the face where two things tend to happen. First, few players get more attention on the street second the upward journey of stocks is slightly more volatile in the initial phase of recovery.

Small caps are about taking right exposure and patience: 5 stocks with right ROE and other parameters

Small caps have an inherent risk which is technical in nature but it still can be a big headache, if one is caught on the wrong foot. A number of these small caps stocks have limited floating stock, which means a bout of demand can lead to a sharp rise in prices, which is good in bullish times, but at the same time if there is a small bout of selling at a time when valuations are high, there is hardly any buyer. So, the risk of these stocks moving downward circuit to circuit. If in doubt, just look at what happened in March this year. That is the risk which probably made the market regulator give advice to mutual funds to put some restraint on collecting money in their small cap schemes. But by April, some of them are making a comeback. For all those die hard small and micro cap fans, one basic principle should be remembered. Investing is about taking stake in a business and that business should have growth prospects and management should be transparent.

These largecaps have 'strong buy' & 'buy' recos and upside potential of more than 20%

While it might be a bit early to say, but the way things have panned in the last couple of weeks, it is clear that bulls are once again making an attempt to control every corner of the street once again. But because valuations are high, one has to be cautious, while being bullish. The reason why we are being cautious is the fact that while at this point of time tension in the middle east might have come down, but in geopolitical tensions, one cannot rule them making a sudden comeback. Also, clarity has to still emerge on what course of action the US Fed will follow. Also as a thumb rule, one should remember that corrections and consolidation are part of every bull market. We will continue to see them at regular levels.
