BANKING STOCKS TO WATCH

These large-caps have ‘strong buy’ & ‘buy’ recos and an upside potential of more than 25%
Why talk about a correction when the market is clearly in bullish mode? Because, for one, you should always be ready for a correction; along with volatility, it is a part of the market.

Now, this is very different from how things were in January and February when high valuations and low growth made it a structural issue. With Q4 earnings being better than expected, at least the concern over growth has been addressed. Valuations though are still not cheap. But if there is growth, valuations can be justified.
