mid-caps are clear buy below 15.5 pe and give quick returns if you can tap by tracking daily. don't wait for 15.2 or 14.9, just see 15.5 or below say 15.41-15.49 and buy mid-caps blindly, icici pru discovery, hdfc mid-cap, idfc small and mid etc.
nifty is clear buy at below 19.45. say 19.44 or 19.41. don't wait for 19.3 or low, buy index fund as soon as nifty pe goes below 19.5 and if that day market is down. jm nifty, hdfc sensex plus or idfc nifty can be bought.
right now power and bse-teck stocks are at attractive value though i'll still wait for some correction (~2-3%). reliance diversified power and birla new millennium are funds that should be on radar. auto, banks, oil and gas looks attractive if there is fall of about 4-5%. uti logistic, sundaram energy, reliance banking are few funds to go for.
until there is drastic change in economy we'll have marry go round of pe, going up and coming down. i've made a good money just by tracking pe levels in past 1 year or so. right now i'm fully cash-rich and sitting on edge to buy. power and it/teck will be my 1st buy, oil, auto, nifty and lastly midcap will follow.
timing market for fall of x points is immposible and people miss the bus for this very reason waiting for a level like 18000, 17000 etc. instead pe levels should be gauge to measure market. also fii-dii figures clubbed with crude should be behind mind before making investment decision. kinda confusing, if anyone gets hold of all such data he/she will surely make alot of money! just a tip - crude is not inverse related to indian market in past 6 months. if crude goes up indian market goes up somehow, if it falls indian market falls too.
