Value Investors company & carried on “as is” basis.
In my view, the trade war worries are untenable and the markets will start focusing on other factors
and issues that genuinely impact specific businesses. Our markets were down as HNIs were heavy
sellers in the market owing to the LTCG factor. The FIIs and the DIIs remained net buyers into the
market in the past couple of weeks even as the stock prices tumbled. Going ahead, I believe the
markets should improve in terms of sentiment and
some good amount of buying will resume starting
April 1.
I am excited to share with you a list of top 250 mid-cap stocks in this special edition. Know our
views on mid-cap stocks in the cover story, which also brings to you experts’ views on mid-caps.
To understand what exactly happened in the PNB scam and whether more such scams are possible
in the banking sector, read our detailed story on one of the biggest frauds in banking sector that
shook the investing world.
We have also expressed our views on the gem and jewellery stocks in our separate special story,
which also talks about the past performance of the sector. Have a look to know what lies in store for
the sector.
When the time is tough for the markets, the only success mantra is to identify strongest possible set
of stocks for your portfolio. No innovation is required in such volatile times. Staying calm and
focused will more than do the job for investors in such a ‘noisy’ milieu. Stay invested in high
conviction stocks, and remember – no leverage trading.
Happy Investing!
