Tweet Buster: How is 2020 looking like for D-Street? Stocks to keep an eye on


NEW DELHI: Dalal Street showed strong performanxlce during the week gone by, mainly on account of positive news on the US-China trade front and good inflows from foreign institutional investors.

With the market ready to step into the last week of 2019, market honchos have started speculating on what lies ahead.

Sandip Sabharwal, an independent expert, said rural-focused companies could be in the limelight next year given the pick-up in commodity prices.

Value investor Safir Anand said investors are not appreciating the companies, whose managements have stood the test of time. He advised buying those in smaller lots.

Commenting on the divergence between the market and the economy, Sabharwal is hoping that the recovery theme would soon start playing out in the market.

Sabharwal also expects RBI to turn more hawkish next year in the light of a surge in oil prices and with inflationary pressures ticking up.

Sounding an alarm, Sabharwal said when market fundamentals delink themselves from economic fundamentals, the possibility of a sharp downside increases.

Shyam Sekhar of iThought says benchmark hunting on Dalal Street would go away only if and when real performers take the centre stage.
