How to navigate Indian stocks amid the geopolitical war

Bengaluru (Karnataka) [India], November 21: The ongoing geopolitical war has sent shockwaves through global markets, with Indian stocks no exception. The Indian stock market has been volatile in recent months, with investors weighing the potential impact of the war on the Indian economy and corporate earnings.

Impact of the War on Indian Stocks

The war has had a mixed impact on Indian stocks so far. On the one hand, the war has led to higher commodity prices, which has impacted the profitability of Indian companies. For example, Indian oil and gas companies have seen their margins shrink due to rising crude oil prices.

On the other hand, the war has also led to increased demand for Indian exports, such as pharmaceuticals, IT services, and engineering goods. This is because India is seen as a safe haven destination for investments in times of market uncertainty.

A recent news report by The Economic Times highlighted the fact that the Indian stock market has outperformed other emerging markets since the start of the war. As on 17th August the Nifty 50 index has fallen by about 10% since the start of the war, while the MSCI Emerging Markets Index has fallen by about 20%.

The report also noted that the Indian stock market has been supported by strong foreign institutional investor (FII) inflows in recent months. FIIs have invested a net of over $10 billion in Indian stocks since the start of the year.

Another news report by Bloomberg Intelligence highlighted the fact that Indian stocks are trading at attractive valuations. The report noted that the Nifty 50 index is trading at a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of around 15x, which is below its historical average.

This outperformance can be attributed to a number of factors, including India’s strong economic growth, its relatively low exposure to Russia and Ukraine, and its attractive valuations.

Sidhavelayutham Mohanamoorthy, Founder & CEO of Aliceblue, a leading online stockbroking firm in India, had this to say about the state of Indian stocks:

“The Indian stock market has shown resilience in recent months, despite the ongoing geopolitical war. This is due to a number of factors, including India’s strong economic growth, country’s low dependency on affected countries, and its attractive valuations.

However, investors remain cautious about the potential impact of the war on the Indian economy and corporate earnings. It is important for investors to adopt a cautious approach and focus on quality companies with strong fundamentals while investing in Indian stocks in the current market environment.”

How to Navigate Indian Stocks

In the current volatile market environment, it is important for investors to adopt a cautious approach while investing in Indian stocks. Here are a few tips:

Focus on quality companies with strong fundamentals: Focus on investing in companies with strong fundamentals, such as a healthy balance sheet, a proven track record of profitability, and a competitive advantage. These companies are better placed to withstand the challenges of the current market environment.

Invest for the long term: Avoid short-term trading and invest for the long term. This will help you to overcome the volatility in the market and generate better returns over time.

Diversify your portfolio: Diversify your portfolio across different sectors and asset classes. This will help to reduce your risk exposure and protect your capital.

Conclusion

The Indian stock market is likely to remain volatile in the near term due to the ongoing geopolitical war and other factors. However, India’s strong economic growth and its attractive valuations make it a compelling investment destination for the long term.

As the global geopolitical landscape continues to evolve, staying informed and adapting investment strategies accordingly will be the key to success. By embracing insights, analyzing trends, and seeking expert advice, investors can navigate the complexities of the Indian stock market with resilience and foresight.
