    Hi All,

    Any views on switching from Tata Steel to HPCL partially with SL 299. Since I think OMC's might perform well in the near future.

    Thanks
    Naveen

    Whats OMC? Also I don't see a reason for switch between those stocks. Whats your purchase point in Tata Steel and why you just cannot book profit (or loss as the case may be)?

    By OMC's i meant Oil Marketing Companies like BPCL, HPCL, IOC. Purchase point of Tata Steel was @ 299. Also by switching i meant to reduce my exposure to Tata Steel (since i already own a fair amount of shares) and venture in to a new sector. I thought of OMC's since they have been in a some what tight range and the change in pricing policies seems to favor atleast a slight re rating. If technicals also doesn't suggest a break down i could take the risk.

    Thanks Shabbir..

    The downside in HPCL is limited but I prefer investing and trading in stocks that can give me upside as well. HPCL looks like has not done much in last year or so and I don't see a reason it being doing something now.
