Headwinds, yes, but long-term story intact. 7 stocks from the engineering sector with upside potential from 21 to 42%

Many sectors have made some sort of a comeback in the last six years. In the last few quarters, some of them have been facing short-term headwinds. This is not unusual. Why? Because that is how sectoral cycles play out. In such a situation, while it is important to understand the reasons for the headwinds, don’t ignore the fact that some of these sectors have changed structurally, and for good. So, as investors, it is probably time to get these stocks on a watchlist. The reason: Structural improvements are far more important in long-term investing than market sentiment and short-term headwinds. Take the case of engineering and capital goods companies. They faced some issues because of a slowdown in government spending in 2024, and may do so for some more time. A window of opportunity?
