These mid-cap stocks with ‘Strong Buy’ & ‘Buy’ recos can rally over 35%, according to analysts
After six months of cooling off, are valuations in the mid-cap segment fairly priced? The answer is, no. Does it mean you should avoid this segment? The answer is, again, no. Over the next few quarters, stock price trends and the absolute value of stock prices will be impacted by sectoral fundamentals as well as valuations. As an investor, keep an eye on liquidity and market breadth for the next few sessions as they will determine what happens to mid-cap stocks in the medium term. If both market breadth and the Nifty stay positive, it is likely that we will see more strength in the mid-cap segment. And that would probably also signal the end of this phase of correction.

As Nifty & Sensex recover, these large-caps have ‘strong buy’, ‘buy’ recos, with an upside potential of more than 30%
It might be a bit early to say with certainty, but the way things panned out in the last two weeks, the worst may be over for the bulls. When we say bulls, we include retail investors. That’s because all retail investors are by nature bullish. And rightly so, as it pays to be bullish about the India story. Now, the long phase of correction has brought us to a place where a large number of blue chips are at levels where the chances are that being bullish on them will deliver returns. But while being bullish, be selective and cautious as well.
One index which better reflects undercurrent of the economy & should be watched before Nifty
As a country, we are obsessed with the Nifty50, Bank Nifty, and the Nifty Midcap Index. We don't bother to look at other indices. Of course, many are not worth looking at because they are there just for the sake of it. But there is one that probably meets, to some extent, the purpose of an index as an indicator of the “health of the economy”. How so? Consider its constituents: A company making HCV/LCVs; a port operator straddling the western and eastern coasts of India; a container company; a tyre company; a railway ticketing platform; an auto ancillary firm; a passenger car company; and many others. How do these companies reflect the health of the economy?

MNC stocks: Look beyond HUL and Nestle. 7 non-FMCG MNC stocks with an upside potential of more than 20%
Which definition suits an MNC more? First: A company whose majority stake is held by foreign company. And second: A company where not only is the majority stake held by a foreign entity, but the parent company operates in different parts of the world. Why make this distinction? Because, in the last few years, some Indian companies have seen their majority stake being bought by a foreign company. And they have started getting MNC-like valuations on the street. Even though the new owner has not brought anything to the table as far as their operations are concerned.
These large-caps have ‘strong buy’ & ‘buy’ recos and an upside potential of more than 26%
The Indian market, in correction mode for five months, is not a standalone underperformer. A part of the correction does and will continue to happen because of global markets. So, when Dow Jones Futures indicates in the afternoon that it will open with a 1% cut, or Nasdaq is set for a cut of over 2%, expecting the Nifty to end the day in the green is foolhardy. It’s simple: If the US markets are going to drop, there is no way the Indian market, or for that matter any other, whether emerging or developed, will see a standalone uptrend. Yes, there will be phases of relative outperformance. Are Indian markets going through that? Is market behavior indicating that?

These large- and mid-cap stocks can give more than 30% return in 1 year, according to analysts
Around this time last year, both policymakers and regulators were worrying about the froth building up in the mid-cap space. A slew of measures were announced to curb the flow of excessive money into both mid- and small-caps stocks. The expectation was that it would stem the flow and cool things down. But the overall flow, at least to the mid-cap mutual funds, continues to be the same. The last few weeks of correction has, however, brought retail participation down. So, it is not the regulator but prices which determine how much money will flow and what it will chase. At this juncture, the valuation differential between large- and mid-caps have narrowed. Will the trend continue? Or will there be a churn?

These large- and mid-cap stocks can give more than 48% return in 1 year, according to analysts
It is not often that the stock market heads to the Union budget with the kind of correction it has seen in recent months. Normally, there are more expectations. This time, however, there is not much expectation, which is probably a good thing. If one looks at post-budget market performance of the past, there have been times when large-caps have underperformed while mid-caps have outperformed. There have also been times when mid-caps have come under pressure and large-caps were able to show relatively better performance. In this context, it would probably be better to have a combination of both large- and mid-cap stocks in your portfolio. Another important factor: Diversification is the key.

While every earnings season is important, sometimes a particular season becomes critical because it provides a clear picture of what is happening not only with a company, but also the sector it is in, as well as the broader economy itself. The ongoing Q3 earning season is one of those critical periods. The reason: It will reveal how the festive season, so important for several sectors as well as the broader economy, has panned out. So, this earning season, be watchful and stay with select stocks. Also, make sure that you don't sell just because of short-term narratives governed by price action.
