MARKET VIEW | Stay invested in high-quality large caps but be selective in mid-small caps

Market moods are swinging wildly each day. After the 5-day losing streak, the Dow rebounded sharply yesterday with a gain of  586  points indicating the return of the bulls. In India, for some time now, this has been a 'buy on dips market' strongly favouring buyers. But at high valuations, the risk-reward ratio is slowly turning unfavourable to buyers. The market might be discounting a sharp recovery in corporate earnings expected this year. Also, the expansionary cycle of growth & earnings might gather momentum, going forward. Stay invested in high-quality large caps but be selective & cautious in mid-small caps. Brent crude at $ 75 is a macro concern for India while softening dollar index is emerging market positive.
