Hindustan TimesWorried about correction? This shall too pass, these bank stocks can give more than 20% returns, according
In the last one week, not even one sector has been spared by bears, they were seen across the street. It is time like this that one needs to look at the relative performance and before taking any buy or sell decision one simple question should be asked. The question is that a sector which was doing well when the news about higher GDP growth and other macro numbers were coming, has suddenly corrected, is there something changed for the sector or not. Because if some negative development has taken place in the operating matrix of the sector then it is time to sell, but if nothing wrong has happened to factors which determine the bottomline then why panic and sell. What impacts the operating matrix of the banking sector ? It is the overall economic growth. Banks provide the lifeline of capital to all the sectors which form part of any economy, whether it is retail loans or corporate loans. So when these sectors do well, banks have a higher credit growth. Is there any indication that economic growth is going to come down, not at all. So, let the trader react, not the investor.

Capital goods and engineering companies had faced tough times for many years. Given the fact that hardly any capacity buildup was taking place in any industry, a number had to change their product portfolio and had to live with very low margins. But all the efforts have now started to show some results. Three things impact the demand for capital goods . First, spending by the government, spending by the private sector. Last but not the least the focus of the government policies. After the state election results, there is a higher probability that two out of three factors are likely to continue to play.
