Stocks To Watch On October 14: Markets started the week on a weak note, pausing after the recent rebound. Concerns over tariff escalation — particularly following the US President’s remarks about a potential
100% duty on Chinese goods — triggered risk aversion across global equities, weighing on domestic sentiment.
Looking ahead, quarterly earnings will remain the key driver for market direction, though global developments may continue to add volatility. “We suggest maintaining a positive bias as long as the Nifty holds above the 25,000 mark and adopting a strategy of buying quality stocks on dips rather than taking aggressive leveraged positions,” said Ajit Mishra, SVP – Research, Religare Broking.
