Sector Performance

Here's a look at the YTD sector performance. The Y axis shows the % gain. IT is the top leader at 61% followed by Health Care and FMCG at 23% and 11% respectively.

Now below is a look at the sector performance from the recent bottom on 28th August:

Over here, Capital Goods is a leader at 48% followed by Banks at 31% and Metals at 28%

So my choice for the next year would be IT, Health Care, Autos, Metals, Capital Goods. Banks are a no no but if at all you want some bank stocks then maybe some private banks and not PSU's. Oil and Gas is another no no. Real Estate is a bit tricky - maybe one can trade stocks in this sector which keep bouncing every now and then.
