Are bulls back? Add diversification to being bullish & cautious: 6 large-caps from different sectors with upside potential of up to 28%

The markets love a good story, and renewed optimism around an India-US trade breakthrough is a great one. Hints of tariff compromises, smoother market access, and upbeat headlines can lift indices and compress risk premiums in a hurry. Traders should enjoy it; but investors should be careful with it. For portfolios that aim to grow over years, trade headlines are context, not thesis. The thesis still lives in earnings power, pricing, volumes, cost curves, balance-sheet strength, and, of course, that great story about India’s domestic growth.
