Indian equity markets after a short bullish stint in the second quarter of the financial year have now taken the course of correction. There are many stocks that are closing in on their 52-week low, but is it the time to go for bottom fishing. Not as yet as many of these stock despite touching their 52-week low levels are looking expensive or are in the overvalued zone if you look at their PE (Price-to earning) ratio.
However, there are a few stocks among the BSE 500 stocks worth having a look. We have picked those stocks which have fulfilled 5 of Ben Graham’s 6 stock picking criteria. We have not strictly followed the criteria for positive EPS growth in the past five years.
