A play on revival of capex cycle: 5 PSU banks with an upside potential of up to 36%
After a gap of almost three months, PSU banks witnessed an across the board up move. If one looks deeper, even in the last three months of correction or rather consolidation, the cut in PSU stocks was not very high. They moved in a sideways range. This is very different if one takes into account how the stock used to lead the correction earlier. The re-rating of PSU banks has to be divided into three parts, the first part which was about clean up of the banking system which was full of NPA brushed under the carpets and they got cleaned up and their balance sheets became more reliable. Second part was mergers which meant improvement in the operational efficiency. Now it is the third part, which is more important, growth and that too profitable growth. Is now the street getting ready to re-rate them because of loan book growth, which is showing green shoots due to the capex cycle starting back

Simple moat is good enough reason : 5 large cap stocks from different sector with right ratio matrix and upside potential of upto 38%
There are many textbook definitions of the word “ moat”. But what it means in simple terms is that there has to be something in a business and the management which makes it different from others and also helps it grow faster and more importantly on a sustained basis. It is not a very complicated thing, just a look at some basic numbers, a look at what the company management had said 5 years ago, whether it has been achieved or not. For example, in sectors where the debt is normally high because of the nature of business, a company which has been able to grow while keeping debt at a lower level is positive and is surely a moat, while if one goes by strict textbook definition of moat it might not fit it.
