[hfe_template id='11223'] [ad_1] Synopsis The way things are developing on the India-Pakistan border, one thing is almost certain: The return of volatility. In the current scenario, be prepared to see some amount of drawdown in the value of your overall portfolio. Also, don’t hit the panic button. Focus instead on things you have control over. So, don’t react to every headline, and be discriminatory in stock selection. Remember that the best returns on your investment will come in the medium to long term. Now that conflict has been sparked between India and Pakistan, when it will end is anyone's guess. But the way the street has been reacting to events, it appears that it expects only a limited conflict. The big question at this juncture is this: Should you bother about what is happening at the border or what is happening in specific sectors and companies? The answer is both. We have to be concerned about what is happening at the border because ETMarkets.com May 10, ...

[hfe_template id='11223'] [ad_1] Synopsis At this juncture in the market, it is important to look at the macro picture of the sector and the Q4 numbers of the company before making investment decisions. If there is a decline in Q4 performance with no logical reason for the decline, stay away from the stock. Now, what do we mean by “logical reason”? For example, there are some sectors where, cyclically, Q4 results are bound to be bad. So, there is a logical reason for the poor results. When there is no such reason, it’s a red flag. Our selected stocks for today depict a strong upward trajectory in their overall average score which is based on five key pillars: 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.

[hfe_template id='11223'] [ad_1] Synopsis As volatility increases on the street, you will hear talk of the Nifty getting support at XYZ or some other level. This is where investors need to be cautious. The reason is simple: The bottom line and earnings of companies are not impacted by where the Nifty is trading. It is impacted by what is happening in their sectors. And you can get a fair idea of what is happening in a sector from what the management says in its con-calls after the quarterly earnings. Our selected stocks for today depict a strong upward trajectory in their overall average score which is based on five key pillars: 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. The markets are now again volatile. This phase of volatility could spark feelings of “let's postpone buying decisions” for some more time, especially as recent events...

[hfe_template id='11223'] [ad_1] Synopsis The way the street has reacted to early Q4 results, it appears that the market has priced in some of the numbers. So, it is probably time to be bullish, but also very selective. There is, however, a caveat. Global developments can still play spoilsport and cause the market to come under pressure. Our selected stocks for today depict a strong upward trajectory in their overall average score which is based on five key pillars: 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. Given how the markets have been reacting to Q4 numbers, it appears that there is a greater chance of the bulls staying in the game. Both at the level of the index as well as market breadth. Just to put this in perspective: Look at the stock performance of Infosys and BHEL. These are two very different companies, but both delivered a m...

[hfe_template id='11223'] [ad_1] Synopsis While it makes sense to wait for the storm to blow over, you cannot wait forever for perfect conditions to put money in the market. For, by the time perfect conditions arrive, stock prices may have moved up sharply. So, you have to take a risk. The trouble with taking a risk at this juncture is that it is not domestic but global factors that are creating uncertainty. And no one knows when and how they will resolve themselves. Our selected stocks today depict a strong upward trajectory in their overall average score, which is based on five key pillars – 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. More than the absolute level of gains which the Nifty and Sensex notched up this week, it was the market breadth which was the standout feature. It was not only positive, but positive by a big margin. Given...
