Finance Voyager’s (FV’S)TOP 20 STOCKS

Yes you heard it right! In this blog I will be revealing my top 20 stocks to buy in 2023. I came across these stocks after doing considerable research and analysis. My selection process was the following.

First of all, I filtered companies based on their industries. I used the sectoral rotation cycle to determine which sectors are about to prosper and which ones are going to decline. Of course , this cycle is never-ending and every sector(industry) is important in different stages of the economic cycle. A thorough look at the government yield curve suggests flattening of economic activity , almost as if the Indian economy has reached its maximum efficiency. Technological , healthcare and sometimes utility sectors are the best investments in this stage. However , the sector rotation cycle must not be relied upon entirely because there are multiple aspects that influence the performance of a company and its stock. I used a top-down approach because I felt it was easy to gauge the current economic stage using this technique. I firmly believe that , in this stage , consumers will start realizing the value of utilities such as Gas , Electricity and Water.

The next step was to conduct an analysis of financial statements such as balance sheets and profit and loss statements. To be specific , I analysed ratios such as ROE, ROCE,ATR,CR,PE,ICR,SG,etc. These profitability and liquidity ratios helped gain a holistic overview of the company and its operations. After all, the right way to invest is to invest in what you know. The validity of this statement is indeed a debatable one in today’s era as complex technological start-up firms succeed in their operations.
