Midcap stocks drop 10% from highs, head for correction as growth outlook sours
Mid-cap stocks are approaching correction territory as concerns over slowing earnings growth and high valuations grow. The Nifty Midcap 100 dropped up to 2.9% on Friday, falling over 10% from recent highs, indicating a technical correction. This decline is driven by heavy selling from foreign portfolio managers this month, despite a 30% rally through September 23.

For risk takers with medium term perspective: 5 mid cap stocks from different sectors with potential upside of up to 46%
The problem with looking at an index and feeling bullish or bearish is the fact that the index is a collection of stocks which in all probability has little correlation with a stock you have in your portfolio. If you are feeling bullish because the nifty is touching and checking what has happened to the value of the portfolio, there is a high probability that you may get disappointed. The reason to be bullish has to be growth of the economy and the reason for selecting a stock has to be good business, management and growth of the company. Don't be afraid to be bullish but do a bit of simple work and enjoy the fruits of growth of the Indian economy.
Staying bullish and hedging go hand in hand: 5 mid cap stocks from different sectors with potential upside of up to 41%
In the last few sessions, there has been an uneasy calm on the street. At this point of time when the street is juggling with its own fear and anxiety because of what might happen in the global markets. The mid-caps segment of the market is witnessing some profit booking/ rational shifting/ consolidation. A part of that is happening because of the fact that the street is reacting and adjusting to Q1 numbers. The way stocks are moving, there is no one trend in mid-cap space. So there are many sub segments which are getting formed in mid-cap space and given the mix of head and tailwinds. So, one will have to do two things, one be bullish but be more selective and focus on managing risks and hedge for short term and think from long term perspective.
IT stocks: Yes, short term headwinds, but strength of balance sheet is good enough reason, 6 stocks with upside potential of 15 to 34% in 1 year
Just before the announcement by the US Fed, there was a sudden bout of selling in IT stocks. The IT index saw a cut of more than 3 percent and the decline in stock was across the board, whether large or mid-cap IT stocks, all of them witnessed a cut. If this is appearing unexpected, then probably consider just one simple fact that amongst IT is the sector where the FPI has one of the highest exposure. So, if there is a sector where there can be an implication of recession in the US and a hedge fund decides to sell then it would be IT stocks which will be on top of the list of selling. So there will be short term unexpected and what might appear to be the unexplained bout of selling which may come. But the bigger reason is the strength of the balance sheet and experience to deal with headwinds.
Mid-cap stocks: Time to review & realign portfolio. 5 mid-cap stocks from different sectors with an upside potential of up to 30%
With the Nifty and Sensex at new highs, there are segments of the market that are witnessing profit-booking. Given that valuations are high, it is time to divide decision-making on investing into two parts. One: What does one do with an existing portfolio? And, two: If one is to put in fresh money, where should it be deployed? The second question deserves more attention – because buying the wrong stocks at high valuations can lead to bigger problems. So, before making the decision to invest, do a simple check on some parameters and whether the company is meeting those criteria. If not, it’s probably best to skip that stock.
Sandip Sabharwal sees no value in Ola; it’s a wait-and-watch on crude sensitives
Sandip Sabharwal predicts that established brands like Bajaj, TVS, and Hero will dominate the two-wheeler market within the next two to three years. He sees limited value in Ola Electric stocks as these legacy players gain market share. Investors might find more opportunities in large-cap stocks if global markets stabilize and FIIs reallocate funds.
Valuations & business risks are two different things: 5 midcap stocks from different sectors with upside potential of up to 27%
There is nothing wrong in being bullish all the time for one simple reason. As the Indian economy grows at a faster rate, earnings of companies across different sectors and segments will grow faster and what drives the stock prices finally is the earnings. But yes, given the fact that valuations are high, one needs to be more selective in buying the stocks, because downward movements like the one which witnessed in March 2024 and early August will keep happening at periodic intervals. So, while being bullish one has to reduce the probability of making a mistake and reducing the risk of decline in capital invested in the market.
Own midcaps? Do a check & balance exercise as volatility may spike: 4 midcaps from different sectors for long-term investors
Every now and then the market goes through phases, where it prefers a certain set of stocks, not based on sector but based on the overall market cap. So, sometimes it is large caps, at other mid-caps. Now this partially happens, due to the flows which are coming to markets. For example, if more flows are coming to mid-cap or multicap schemes there is bound to be out performance in the mid-cap space. When flows for large caps would increase as has been the case in the month of August. they performed better. Now what it does is that it tends to create a sudden surge in mid-cap or the large cap. Similarly when there is an outflow like the kind of one which we saw in March 2024, midcap stocks tend to decline sharply. Essentially, it is the flows which impact the broader matrix of how midcaps behave.
For long-term investors with medium risk appetite: 6 midcap stocks from different sectors with upside potential of up to 49%
If looking for investing in a mid-cap, which would be a better stock to own. A stock which after a period of four years has once again paid dividend last year or a stock which in the last five years have missed dividend only in FY 2020, which was covid year. Yes, second one, but most investors don't look at these things which in the long run matter both for the real business and finally the stock price. Similarly, there are many small things which need to be looked at when investing in a mid cap stocks for very simple reason that market is sitting with a good amount of gain and short corrective move which may come largely because of global reason or just a simple profit booking move may hit midcap more than anyone else. So, while being bullish and increasing your exposure just do a little bit of work so that one is able to avoid anxiety in time of corrective phase of the market.
Some midcap have higher growth potential due to sectoral tailwinds: 4 midcap stocks with upside potential of up to 31%
At this point of time, while the tailwinds of liquidity are pushing all the mid-cap higher, there are some stocks where additional tailwinds of sectoral growth are also present. The sector is growing at a pace which is higher than many other sectors and the nature of the business is such that it is likely to grow at a higher rate. The reason why it is important to look at whether sectoral growth tailwinds are present or not is due to higher valuations. Premiums can only be justified if there is a reasonable probability of higher growth in future also.
Better placed than many due to track record: 5 midcap stocks from different sector with an upside potential of up to 38%
While it might not appear on the face of it because it is being masked by the market breadth and movement of indices, the fact is that some of the high flying stocks have corrected very sharply from their recent 52 week high. So, there is a correction going in the market. But even after the correction the fact is that the mid-cap segment is likely to outperform as money continues to get poured into mutual funds schemes. The only thing which an investor needs to do is to look at each stock carefully and check certain easily available information on the company and then just buy them for a slightly longer term time perspective.
About 25% stocks in smallcap space correct up to 60% this year. Is it a sign of a healthy bull market?
Domestic markets have experienced a relentless bull run this year, with key indices reaching record highs driven by solid macro fundamentals and discussions about easing the interest rate cycle. The rally has been broad-based, including small-cap and mid-cap stocks trading near their 52-week peaks. However, around 25% of small-cap stocks in the BSE Smallcap index have faced price corrections in 2024, according to Ace Equity data.
Ignoring mid-caps is not an option, and being selective is a necessity: 6 stocks from different sectors with an upside potential of up to 38 %
A recent report suggested that for the first time, the AUM of Midcap mutual fund schemes have gone above the AUM of large cap mutual fund schemes. There are two ways to look and interpret this. First, that too much money has gone into mid-cap mutual funds and it is time to be cautious. The other way to look at it is that finally mid-cap stocks have reached a level where institutional investors are able to find opportunities to invest and that is why they are coming with more schemes and more money is being collected in mid-cap schemes. Beside the above two, there is a third way to look at it, which is pragmatic: India's growth story is incomplete without mid-cap as these are the companies which are either emerging or re-emerging with their operating matrix turning better due to a couple of factors.
Midcaps blinking red. It’s time to go back to bluechip stocks
High valuations in midcap stocks are causing worries about a potential market downturn. Past data shows that when the Nifty Midcap 100 falls significantly after a strong rally, the Nifty 50 tends to do better than both midcap and smallcap indices.
Reduce the risks with checks & balances: 5 midcap stocks from different sector with upside potential of up to 42 %
While there is volatility in the markets, the underlying sentiment is still bullish. At this point of time, the macro picture is indicating that if there is no major problem which comes from global markets, there are greater chances of the Indian market staying under the control of bulls. While continuing to stay bullish, the only thing which investors need to take care of is that because valuations are not cheap, they should be careful in selecting the stocks and rather than buy on “ Tips”. Some homework should be done in terms of looking at what is the business of the company track record of promoters, and whether the company has been paying dividends or not. By putting these checks and balances, not only one increases the probability of buying better stocks but also it reduces the drawdown in a volatile market.
IT stocks: Time to be contrarian in select pockets? 6 IT stocks with upside potential of up to 34%
There is an old saying on Dalal street. News and stock prices have an inverse relationship. When news is good, stock prices are bad and when news is bad, stock prices are good. This probably has played in the IT space more than anywhere else. The news and also one may say opinion is bad about these stocks. It is not the first time that IT stocks are witnessing such a wave of negative sentiment against them. In the past also when the world of technology has gone through a structural shift, like the one when the “ cloud” came in, even then similar sort of sentiment was seen against them. They all adjusted and moved ahead. Today, it's AI, they have already started to adjust. Is there a case of taking a contrarian call in IT stocks ?
One reason is good enough to own them: 5 midcap stocks from different sectors and upside potential of upto 27 %
While there are phases, where they come under pressure, the fact remains that the last ten years best returns have come from mid-cap stocks. So, probably if one is not owning then the return even in the longest of the bull run will not be very high. One of the reasons why mid-cap stocks are able to do well when an economy like India grows at a faster pace is that mid-sized companies are able to improve their operating matrix. Whether it is the cost of capital which comes down, new markets getting opened, it is mid sized companies operating in certain sectors which see faster growth. But the bigger question is which stocks to own, when to buy them and what should be the horizon for which they should be bought and last but not least there has to be one reason why one is buying that particular stock. It could be market size, company being the leader or even a company having a library which no one can replicate.
Market continues to gain strength; no major signs of a correction: Devang Mehta
Many primary issues getting absorbed, stellar listings, most of the businesses doing well, sector rotation coming to the fore, DIIs present, FIIs coming back. I do not see many reasons for the market to correct in a large way.
Re-rating candidates as the sector makes a come back: 5 stocks from paper industry for medium to long term investors
When an industry stays in deep trouble for a long time, there are some players who are able to survive. How do they do it ? Either by changing the way they operate in terms of management ability, by adding new products or any others. The paper industry has been facing multiple challenges, now after years of consolidation in which many players exited, there are few left and have achieved a scale. Numbers are reflecting it, when will the street start to have a look at them more kindly and shed the old bias it has against some of the sectors.
Volatile markets & volatile business are two different things: 5 mid-cap stocks from different sectors with upside potential of up to 42%
However rational one might be, a new flash which shows Japanese indices, Nikkei down by 11% and Taiwanese indices down by 8% is bound to make you look at your portfolio value and get jittery. When one sees that value in red, two things may happen. First the urge to buy stock because you feel that correction is a buying opportunity. Second, question the decision of holding the stocks and sell in panic. Now markets are / were and will remain volatile. But decision making cannot be volatile, it has to be based on what business you will own after you bought the stock. Whether you are going to own a business which is growing or not, whether the management is transparent in admitting its mistakes, take care of your rights as retail shareholders. Let the economist fight on whether the US FEd is wrong and right, focus on what you own and if you own a bad business, even if you are sitting on gains, just sell and if you own a good business ignore the volatility and India VIX.
Volatility is a part of market, focus on underlying business & management for wealth creation: 5 midcap stocks which fit the bill
Given the way global markets have panned out and how the geopolitical developments are shaping up, one cannot rule out the probability that for some more trading sessions the market might stay in a volatile mode. Now there are two things one can do in this volatile market, either worry and make assumptions and go by the narrative of correction that is bound to pour if the corrections get stronger. Second thing which can be done is ignore these short term noises which have come in the past and will come in future also. Just focus on the underlying business, any positive change if that is happening in the sector and check the quality of the management by doing some simple things and holding the stock for some time rather than reacting to all the things happening across the globe. These noises are temporary, it is business and management which is permanent and matters to the street.
17 stocks where FII are increasing stake & DII are reducing stake. Who will be proven right ?
There has been a lot of talk about foreign institutional investors ( FII ) or foreign portfolio investors ( FPI) as they officially called being net sellers in India markets. The numbers tell a different story, if one looks at overall numbers except for calendar year 2022, where they have been net sellers, FPIs have been investing in India. In 2023 and in 2024 as on date, they have been net buyers. So, there is a difference in perception and reality. Now the question is where is the FPI money going and is the DII money which surely has seen a rise thanks to SIP flows into mutual funds is also going in the same direction where the FII money is going. We looked at a set of stocks and change in shareholding for the last three years and there are X stocks where FPI have been buyers, increasing their stake and DII have been reducing their stake. Now this could be for many reasons, but who will be proven right, FII or DII.
Don't be afraid to be bullish, if ready to do a bit of work: 5 midcap stocks from different sectors with upside potential of up to 37%
Just do a small test. What would have been your reaction if nifty would have touched the 25,000 mark? Would you have felt more bullish or would have felt that because the nifty has moved so high, how far it can go and postpone your buying decision. The problem with looking at an index and feeling bullish or bearish is the fact that the index is a collection, so if you felt scared then probably when nifty touched 20,000 the same feeling might have gripped you and missed an opportunity. If you felt over bullish and invested in an FMCG stock probably your returns are suboptimal in the journey of Nifty from 20,000 to 25,000. The reason to be bullish has to be growth of the economy and the reason for selecting a stock has to be good business, management and growth of the company. Don't be afraid to be bullish but do a bit of simple work and enjoy the growth of the Indian economy.
These midcap stocks with ‘strong buy’ & ‘buy’ recos can rally over 25%, according to analysts
Even as the volatility increased in the last few trading sessions, mid-cap continued to move in rational profit booking mode, which is a bullish sign if one looks at it from a long term perspective. A rotational move in terms of one set of stocks from a sector witnessing correction, while the other moves up — like this week it has been cement stocks which have been witnessing upward movement while there was some profit booking seen in metal stocks.

This time tailwinds for good and long term: 5 midcap pharma stocks where probably management has learnt the lesson
Pharma is one sector, where literally every company in the sector has gone through a phase where it is forced to have a look at its own business practices and model. From the US regulator being taken more seriously, to not indulge in speculative treasury practices, to not moving into the export market just for the sake of moving. The fact is the whole pharma sector and literally every company has gone through a good, bad and then a phase of learning and some of them are re-emerging. We look at them which had faced headwinds and now are emerging once again.
Forget additional 2.5% LTCG, finally it is economy and earnings: 4 midcap stocks from different sectors with an upside potential of up to 37%
The reaction of the street to the increase in both short and long capital gains tax is stronger because it was not expected by any section of the market. Specially, mid caps segment which has been sitting on big gains is the one which is facing more cuts. Today and for may be for some more time this increase would impact the sentiment, but in the long term it is the economy and earning which matters to the street. Now the question is whether the budget is a step in the right direction when it comes to the economy. Forget economists, even anyone on the street has any doubt about it. So while investing, ignore the short term noise and focus on the fundamentals of the company and track record of the promoters.
Midcap stocks: Time to focus on select few with a track record. 5 mid-cap stocks from different sectors with an upside potential of up to 40%
That mid-cap stocks will come under selling pressure during the periodic corrections in the market is a given. But, over the long term – and if chosen correctly – mid-cap stocks do deliver better returns. Investing in mid-cap stocks, however, requires a balanced approach – the ability to take risk, to manage the risk, and also have a long-term perspective. And to manage risk, use non-financial parameters. For instance, which company would you pick in the infrastructure space? One where the management has seen it all – from when infrastructure was the buzzword to when it was considered a bad word? Or a company whose management has seen only the good times of the last eight years? Probably the first one, because management experience has its own value and plays a big role in the long term.
Nifty at new highs. Time to be both, bullish & selective: 6 midcap stocks from different sectors with upside potential of up to 47%
As Nifty and Sensex continue to scale new highs, there is a mixed feeling on the street . How to manage the relationship between opportunity and challenges. Given the way markets are panning out, yes there are opportunities to make returns in a short term. But the challenge is finding the right stock which not only delivers a return in the short term but is also worth holding in the portfolio for the long term. So, one has to strike a balance between being bullish and finding the stocks which in case of a decline in market fall less. While there is no full proof of doing it, there are some simple things that if one looks at before buying the stocks, it would help in finding the stocks which have higher probability delivering return with relative lesser drawn down.
These midcap stocks with ‘strong buy’ & ‘buy’ recos can rally over 26%, according to analysts
While it is not very apparent, the fact is that midcap stocks are witnessing a correction, a correction which is taking the form of a rotational profit booking move. A rotational move in terms of one set of stocks from a sector witnessing correction, while the other moves up — like IT stocks not doing well on Wednesday but pharma stocks doing well. During this phase, analysts are bullish on select stocks from different sectors, a number of stocks on which analysts are bullish are essentially leaders of their sector.ET Screener powered by Refinitiv’s Stock Report Plus lists down quality stocks with high upside potential over the next 12 months, having an average recommendation rating of “buy” or "strong buy".

What's driving the rally in IT stocks? Abhishek Kumar answers
And with rate cut on the anvil in US, some of the levered sector like telecom, manufacturing, etc, can also start opening up come FY26. So, with these kind of anticipations, I think it is logical that investors will take position and that is essentially driving the multiples up in the hope that earning upgrades will come through in due course of time.
These midcap stocks with ‘strong buy’ & ‘buy’ recos can rally over 26%, according to analysts
As the Nifty touches a new high, the market breadth is also getting better, though Q1 has made the Street get into stocks specific mode. But clearly the underlying mood of the market is bullish and at this point of time there is no reason to believe that the long term trend will change. This essentially means the “risk on trade”, which took a pause for a while, is back on the Street. Keep an eye on liquidity and the market breadth in the next few weeks as that will determine what happens to mid-cap stocks in the medium term.
