So, staying with the large caps segment, in that too staying with some segment sectors where the tailwind of either policy push or any other would be a better choice.

For a volatile market: 6 largecap stocks from different sectors with upside potential of up to 33%
When it comes to volatility, there are 3 things that one needs to take into account. Magnitude of volatility, frequency of volatile movement, and third which are the sectors leading it and overall market breadth during a volatile phase.

There is a high probability that we might see more of it in the coming weeks. So, it would be better to stay prepared for volatility.

Time for tactical investing: 5 stocks from 2 most unwanted sectors, but with very strong balance sheets
There is an age old saying on Dalal street, when stocks stop reacting to bad news, it means that bears have run out of ammunition and probably it is time to look at them. Similarly when stocks stop reacting to positive news, probably bulls will not be having a say in the near term. At this point of time, there is an interesting phenomenon which is playing out. While at the overall market basis, it appears that bulls may not have much to say in near term. But at the same time, there are two sectors, which have been getting bombarded with bad news for the last two years. Whether it is macro or micro, news or opinion, literally everything which has been said about them is either negative or at best neutral. But if one looks at price action on the counters on any bad news or even brokerage downgrades which is essentially an opinion stock prices are refusing to fall. Historically one of these two sectors were considered defensive,as stocks from this sector tend to outperform in bearish markets. So, is it the time to go against the narrative of negative news and get them on the watch list?
