Asian Paints, Can Fin Homes among 10 stocks that analysts say can deliver decent returns in 2-3 weeks

NEW DELHI: Fear of US recession came back to haunt financial..

NEW DELHI: Fear of US recession came back to haunt financial markets on Monday after a historical trend of inverted yield curve resurfaced last Friday.

This coupled with repeated weak macroeconomic data has strengthened the fear that all is not well with the global economy and India, being among the most prominent emerging markets, cannot shrug off the heat.

A 380-point fall in the Sensex came on the back of a wave of selloff across sectors.

Besides global cues, rupee weakness has also contributed to the fall in stocks. Analysts said investors should adopt a prudent, stock-specific approach in such a market.

Based on various brokerage recommendations, here is a list of 10 stocks that can potentially deliver solid gains over the next 2-3 weeks.

Heidelbergcement India | Buy | Target price: Rs 192 | Stop loss: Rs 167
This stock recently witnessed a sharp upsurge from Rs 145 level to Rs 184 and which was shadowed by profit booking that pushed prices back towards Rs 170 level with low volumes. At this juncture, the stock is showing much resilience after forming a Japanese candlestick pattern, which resembles a bullish engulfing pattern. Volume analysis indicated low volume during the down move, whereas high volume during the upmove suggests accumulation on the counter. In addition, momentum oscillator RSI seems to have formed a base around the 65 mark on the daily chart and has seen a fresh bullish crossover with its smoothened moving average.

On the daily chart, the stock has confirmed a Falling Channel bullish breakout, supported by a bullish breakaway gap. The recent bounce from lower levels was accompanied by increasing volume, indicating a bottom out and signs of optimism. The momentum oscillator has crossed above the positive zone at 50, supporting the buy call.

The RSI has also turned upward after taking support at the lower end of the bull zone i.e. 40-level. It has formed a positive trend reversal on the daily chart, suggesting bullishness on the counter.
