Stock pickers market from here on

After the roaring bull run from September 2103 and the first major correction which happened over the last two months, we are likely to rest here for a while. Indices both the frontline as well as those of the broader markets are likely to remain range bound. However, what is encouraging is that domestic retail investors are still keeping their faith in the markets, investing mainly through the equity mutual funds route. Also select companies are doing well despite the slowdown and enjoy encouraging prospects going forward. All this is likely to result in a market where money making opportunities will still be plenty but an investor will need to adopt a stock specific approach to make money. The period of making easy money is clearly behind us and definite ideas backed by research is the way forward for prospering in this secular Bull Run.
