Stock Market crash
Caution! This stock surge is a bear market trap, warns BofA
The strategists caution that the selloff that took the S&P 500 12% from its January record is not over and sharp rallies are typical of volatility in bear markets, with some of the biggest on record occurring in the throes of the dot-com meltdown and the global financial crisis. A closely watched Treasury market metric flashed a recession warning Tuesday.
Time to buy defensives over; we are accumulating fallen angels: Gautam Trivedi
“Given the correction, 80% of the BSE 500 stocks have corrected 20% or more and are in a bear market. Why would you want to play defensives now? Today I would start accumulating some of the fallen angels and start looking at those stocks; it is too late to get into defensives, one could have done that maybe a month ago.”
4 pharma and metal stocks to buy in this market: Rahul Shah
“Dr Reddy’s and Sun Pharma looks quite promising in the pharma pack. The recent correction in the market has given a decent room for a near-term upside. In the metal pack, Tata Steel looks like a value play from here. Vedanta also could do very well and the valuation looks quite promising.”
IT has been leading hiring; non-IT hiring bounced back in Jan and Feb: Hitesh Oberoi
“The recruitment market has been on a tear. We had great almost four quarters now and there are no signs of the market slowing down. In fact, till two month ago, it was mostly the IT market which was doing well for us. IT is a large part of the hiring sort of mix on Naukri but now even the non-IT companies are bouncing back.”
Sunil Subramaniam on how to make volatility your friend and not an enemy
“As good cyclical-oriented sectors and stocks are correcting, they are the ones to accumulate because the bounce back in earnings will more than justify those allocations though in the short run, it might look like one is taking on a lot more risk. It is a very blended play and that is the best way to harness volatility in our favour.”
If the conflict dissolved tomorrow, I would buy Indian shares and not US stocks: Marc Faber
“The US market has been soaring while the other markets have been moving sidewards or down. Emerging markets and Europe have never been this cheap compared to the US and if the conflict dissolved tomorrow, I would buy Indian shares and not US stocks. Also, one needs to own some gold, silver and platinum as an insurance against political problems . But if only 5% of your assets in gold, the hedge is way too small. ”
These 20 penny stocks defy gravity to zoom up to 700% so far this year
According to the data from Ace Equity, 20 penny stocks were able to tide through tough times to rally up to 725 per cent so far this year.
No need to panic for long-term investors; crises offer best opportunities: Jim O'Neill
“In terms of energy prices and if I add it to the move we had already seen in January in terms of rising bond yields and weaker equities translated into what I would call an oil price adjusted financial conditions index, that would be telling me that all odds being equal, the world economy will slow very sharply through the second quarter and beyond. ”
Good opportunities emerging in metal, IT & oil & gas stocks: Sudip Bandyopadhyay
“The geopolitical tensions of this unprecedented level will lead to some rethink on metals and mining and oil and gas. Even after the war stops and things normalise, countries will take a hard look at their metals and oil and gas strategy. So, if a country or if a company is producing metals or pumping oil or gas, they become much more valuable and that value will continue in the foreseeable future. ”
Russia-Ukraine war: Steel exports to EU and MENA countries to increase, says Jindal Steel MD
“Steel exports from India will increase because this is a good market today as far as the spot market is concerned. The opportunity for the Indian steel industry lies in exporting more and more to the European Union and also the Middle East and North African (MENA) countries. The increased input costs can be set off easily because the prices in Europe are much higher than the prices in India.”
Too early to buy but too late to sell? Sandip Sabharwal explains
“For people who have not taken money off the table, it might be too late to sell because the move down and a possible recovery could then both be pretty rapid. Markets will now start factoring in negatives very fast and it might not be a good opportunity to exit. ”
Prices to go higher as there is 50% chance of oil embargo against Russia: Priya Misra
“We are increasingly thinking that the chance of the sanctions against Russia becoming broader is higher than 50%. We think that oil could be included in sanctions and that is going to add to the pressure on the consumer. We are dealing with high inflation and at some point, it will start to hurt growth.”
Sensex ends 1,491 pts lower, Nifty cracks below 15,900; investors lose Rs 5.43 lakh cr

Can’t sit out the volatility? Look into these 3 sectors: Chakri Lokapriya
“Despite the developments in the Russia-Ukraine conflict, the US economy is in a very strong shape, they are not impacted by this oil move as much as some of the oil dependent countries like India are. Therefore, these are the sectors – IT, textiles and chemicals which are definitely worth looking into.”
We are in a shock setup; not the time to dial risk: Maneesh Dangi
“This is not a very good macro set up and not just for the reasons that I have mentioned for the last five-six months, The shock is that suddenly crude is deviating dramatically from its trend line. Now we have been served a $60-70 billion bill by the rest of the world in the form of higher crude prices, higher fertiliser prices, coal prices and so on and so forth. Who is going to foot the bill? It is not going to be a good deal for both bond markets and equity markets.”
2022 is a tough year, protect capital! Play safe in your portfolio: Sridhar Sivaram
“It is better to be safe right now. Be in stocks where you are sure about the earnings; concept stocks and price to sales and some other random multiples can be avoided. We are broadly underweight IT but we would be long on specific stocks where we think there is strong earnings momentum; we have been very long in PSU banks and have upped our exposure. In auto, commercial vehicles make the best bets.”

How investors can handle a stock market crash

Bear market 4-6 months old for mid and smallcap investors: Vijay Kedia
Questioning the definition of bull and bear markets, Vijay Kedia said everybody defines it according to their own portfolios.
Start buying but stagger it so as not to catch the falling knife: Ajay Srivastava
“We have told clients that if you have a Rs 100 budget, buy Rs 30 worth today. It does not matter. You can buy more tomorrow when the prices are lower. Do it maybe in four lots so that you are not catching the falling knife. You can average it out but do it at this point of time. Do not just sit and watch the market that will be really stupid.”
Don't go by price correction alone, stick to quality now: Aditya Narain
“Even if the Ukraine crisis eases off over the next couple of days, there has been a reset at some level in terms of geopolitical expectations. In that context, it probably makes more sense being in the quality end of whichever sector you play in. That would tend to make a little bit more sense rather than trying to be too cute and trying to find stocks that have got distorted significantly in this price correction. Within the space, you should play at the quality end rather than necessarily go low.”
Markets to come down further; start looking for bargains: Mark Mobius
“I would not say that it is a good idea to rush into the markets yet because it is still adjusting to what is happening. But there is no need to exit companies that have strong balance sheets and are growing earnings and have pricing power. ”
Russian stock market rout wipes out $250 billion in value
The military attack on Ukraine cast a shadow over global markets and sparked a fresh bout of risk aversion. Russian assets took the main blow after President Vladimir Putin ordered an operation to “demilitarize” Russia’s neighbor, prompting international condemnation and a U.S. threat of further “severe sanctions” on Moscow.
Buying anything now is like standing in front of running train: Manishi Raychaudhuri
“At this point of time, we do not know whether this would spiral into a military conflict. But the most obvious reaction of investors has been to sell and get out and wait for clarity to emerge. So many stocks may look fundamentally attractive after a sharp downturn, but it is obviously not the time to buy because you are quite likely to get a better price tomorrow or the day after.”
Keep your war chest ready to be able to buy at lower levels from where we are now: Manish Sonthalia
“If there is deployable cash and if one has stayed out of the market till now, then, if one was to invest at current levels, then the next one-year, two-year returns are going to be very favourable. One is going to buy favoured sectors at much lower prices than what it should be.”
Investors must not be impulsive, can invest in 1-2 weeks: Vikas Khemani
“Do not just jump in today, the first day of correction, Just wait and watch in terms of how events pan out. I personally would think that at any point around 16,000-16,500 there will be value buying opportunities which are occurring now. So once there is clarity that this is not something very full scale involving the world powers, then one can start nibbling in.”
What to do with mid and smallcaps as market continues to correct: A Bala
“From an investor’s point of view, there is no doubt that when there is fear, one buys. But the question is whether it is going to subside immediately and it does not look like it is going to subside immediately. Given the fact that structurally till the supply side constraints are there, commodity prices will remain at an elevated level.”
97 stocks on BSE 500 index hit their 52-week low levels
Overall, the market crash has pulled down nearly 279 stocks to their respective one-year lows on the BSE.
Be very patient before stepping into the market; there’s no back stop now: Arvind Sanger
“Russia is a major supplier of a lot of metals – Palladium, aluminium. They supply coal. So there are a lot of commodities that are coming out of Russia and that can create risks that we cannot quantify right now. The markets will have to get to valuations where all these risks are discounted. However, markets are far from being screaming buys.”
Use fall to add tier-1 banks, capital goods stocks: Pankaj Pandey
“From a capital protection or a buying perspective, banking and capital goods look attractive. Within the sub segments or within the other pockets, recovery plays and especially hospitality players are what can be looked at because if we are not going to see any further Covid waves, then potentially we will see a good recovery for that particular segment and the entire hospitality lot looks attractive.”
Don’t be in a panic to sell; let the dust settle & then buy: Hiren Ved
“There is no point in selling into fear. If you look back, at events like this, typically whenever these events wind down, the markets typically tend to bounce back. So unless it is absolutely necessary, it is counterproductive to sell into a panic like this; whether you want to buy or not is entirely up to the investor’s risk appetite.”

Use volatility in H1 to slowly position in right stocks rather than investing at one go: Trideep Bhattacharya
“We expect the first half of 2022 to be volatile, driven by not just geopolitics but also fears on inflation and US interest rate hikes among others. In the second half of the year, the earnings recovery would start to take some shape and form. We have been advising investors to use the volatility in the first half to gradually and steadily get invested rather than on a lump sum basis.”
Be ready for some more correction, time not ripe for bottom-fishing: Kunj Bansal
“The market is more news flow driven and so while in today’s market, in intraday we have seen the largecap index recovering, that recovery is not visible in the midcaps and smallcaps and certainly not in the individual stocks and more so not in the stocks which retail investors have been holding in general. It does not look like a comfortable point has been reached for bottom fishing. ”
If fundamentals hold, there'll be good buys once the dust settles down: Shankar Sharma
“No mark is given out for being extra brave. You just need to be averagely brave to make money. You do not need to bare your chest and scream “bring it on, I will take it on my chest.” So stay put. There are stocks getting more and more attractive. As long as the fundamentals hold, they will become good buys once the dust settles down.”
India story still exciting; expect 20% earnings growth over next 2-3 years: Mark Matthews
“If we are going into a rough patch for the US market, than that could prove to be a great positive. One good thing about India is that foreigners are not loaded to the gills with Indian stocks like they were in 2008. I do not see a lot of pent-up selling from foreigners because that selling has largely taken place already.”
Ukraine crisis neither opportunity nor threat; invest in Indian economy: Saurabh Mukherjea
"In a healthy economy, invest in high quality companies that are compounding their businesses, their cash flows at around 25%. Stay invested and benefit from it as your wealth grows 10x in 10 years. The more you get lost in the minutiae of Fed rate hikes, Ukraine, oil price and UP elections, the less money you will make."
Buy this crash? Not until market down 20%, says Mark Matthews
"I personally do not think the Ukraine faceoff is going to escalate into a real hot war. I think it is simply a representation of the fact that the world is splitting into blocks and we have probably already been in it for sometime – a cold war. This is unfortunate but the markets did well throughout the cold war with the Soviet Union. I think markets can do well in this situation and try to put a positive spin on it."
What to do in this market crash? Just lie low and don’t act: Deven Choksey
“Our advice to our clients is not to dabble into mid and small size companies as they are most vulnerable to inflationary pressures as cost of energy and raw material prices go up. Maybe they can stay with some of the large companies and within the large companies also try and avoid the commodity influences.”

“I believe that this kind of correction or a sharp fall is becoming an opportunity for investors to buy into. The traders may still want to wait, but investors would possibly look at this falling market to buy into the portfolios.”

3 stocks that can be picked up in this volatile market: Siddharth Sedani
“I would be sticking out for some constant compounders like Divi’s Lab in the pharma space which posted fabulous numbers. Here valuation also fits the bill. There is also value proposition in midcaps in the agri space like Sharda Cropchem. With a buyback in place, TCS is a special situation trade which we are recommending to our investors.”
Too early to start nibbling, let the downsides play first: Jai Bala
“This bull market correction in 2022 is likely to last at least for another couple of quarters. We will have intermittent bounces that will make the market volatile. The theme is an overall correction for 2022, but the bull market is intact. When the markets undergo correction, one must have cash to implement at lower levels.”
What is the right strategy to follow in a market crash? Sandip Sabharwal explains
“The market needs to give up some gains. Technology, financials, etc, could take a hit in the near term. I believe that there is a huge risk premium in oil and that might give away and give some relief. We need to let the markets settle down lower, Longer term markets always do well.”

It could be Paytm or Policybazaar, it is difficult to say because these companies are constantly evolving. ”
After consolidation, we will enter next stage of bull market: Atul Suri

SwamiSpeak: In a market so full of madness, a big global stock market crash is coming
Stock markets once examined every stock for value. Today, value investing is sneered at, and the big boys are rushing into companies that have never made a profit, just as during the dotcom boom, and for the same reason. Losses are seen as a sign of future growth potential rather than disaster. Everybody knows most startups will sink, but nevertheless continue searching for golden needles in a haystack.

“The pockets have changed and sector rotation will play a bigger role. Don’t go too long in 2022. Capitalise on short term opportunities and not take everything from a three or five year perspective.
