Even for long-term investors, putting more checks and balances is the key: 4 largecap stocks with upside potential of up to 26% (2024)

Synopsis

While Nifty and Sensex have seen some respite and given the fact that few mega stocks have the ability to push indices even higher, one cannot rule out the possibility of reading the headlines “ nifty forms a new high” very soon. But as we have seen in the recent past, what nifty does and what is happening in the broader market can be very different. So, it would be better to focus on what is happening in sectors and companies, are there some tailwinds that are likely to lead to better overall growth of the sector and hence the companies. Even in those sectors stick with companies that have a proven track record of surviving economic cycles and on financial parameters they are better placed than others. Because it is finally the earnings which will determine whether the stock is able to outperform or underperform broader market indices. We take a look at four stocks where on two parameters, that is net margins and return on equity, the companies are clearly better placed and there are clear sectoral tailwinds.
