    You do have a quite a number of chemical stocks. What would be the strategy now if it turns out to be cyclical?

    I don't have too many but only 2 in my portfolio and it looks like they have good demand or are trading at great value. I generally do not invest in cyclical.

    Thanks, Shabbir...! How to keep away from all such strategies? I do have few stocks only targeting cyclical. I think applying too many strategies in pockets bloated the portfolio. In fact, you are giving a hint that it is now cyclical. People might use that as a strategy to enter.

    Everyone bloats the portfolio and I also think the same. I am reducing the number of stock in my portfolio as well. For you 30 stocks in the portfolio are too many and for me 15 because I see Vijay Kedia Sir and he has around 5. I want to go to 10 as of now but it is difficult for me because I see each one that I have in my portfolio can perform at the 25% CAGR level. Soon some won't and that will be the reason to exit
