The US-Iran peace deal is finally about to happen. There is a high probability that global markets will see a relief rally, a part of which is already visible. Will the Indian market participate in this rally? While nothing can be said with certainty about the stock market, probability-wise, yes, the chances are high that it might, because oil prices have cooled down. Our selected stocks for today depict a strong upward trajectory in their overall average score which is based on five key pillars: Earnings, fundamentals, relative valuation, risk, and price momentum. This implies that there has been a significant improvement in their market outlook in the given time frame. ...Less

Some auto ancillary stories are best understood by products. This one is best understood by buckets. The first bucket is still old auto, and it brings most of the revenue. The second bucket is the transition layer, where the company is trying to build more powertrain-neutral and EV-linked exposure. The third bucket is the diversification layer. In FY26, the old bucket was still around 70% of revenue, with the newer buckets forming the rest. So, business is more balanced than before, but not yet transformed. For investors, the key questions are mix change, order conversion, capex efficiency, working capital, and whether newer revenue can scale without weakening returns. ...Less

Why are oil, gold and silver prices down today, and will Brent futures, US WTI crude and precious metals prices continue to drop or rise again? Oil, gold and silver prices moved lower after reports that the United States and Iran could reach a peace agreement. Brent futures and US WTI crude declined as fears of supply disruption eased.

As the market seems to be in comeback mode, it helps to be aware that the best (and probably biggest) wealth creator of the last couple of decades was also a major underperformer in the past four years. Has it underperformed as a business? The answer: No. So, when investing, remember that stocks may underperform, but a business may or may not underperform. As a fresh move starts in the market, don't assume that what has done well in the past will continue to do so. ...Less

Belligerence is back. Both the US and Iran are hitting each other and the statements from both sides do not auger well for a peace deal. The only positive is that the back channel talks are still apparently on, and no one is outrightly dismissing the possibility of a deal. The latest Gulf flare-up should normally be very bad news for the Indian markets. But the way they have been reacting bears a closer look. ...Less

The Indian hotel and tourism ecosystem has benefitted from the post-Covid travel urge. Occupancies were high, room rates firm, supply is, in fact, still tight. But the bull case rested on an assumption: That households and companies would keep spending freely on travel, conferences, weddings, offsites, and premium stays. In hospitality, demand does not disappear first. The ability to pay does. Will higher inflation and trouble in the Gulf region change this equation?

We are in a phase in the US-Israel-Iran war where statements are made, then retracted. And, in a matter of just 48 hours, they are made all over again. Such back and forth will likely only continue in the near future. The worry is that this conflict in the Gulf will not be resolved soon and, much like the Russia-Ukraine war, will just continue without a clear outcome for either side. ...Less
