Cooling Down?

The rise in temperatures throughout the country is set to increase the demand for air conditioners, leading to a surge in sales for AC companies. ETMarkets noticed a trend in the Indian air condition stocks, where most of these companies did not perform well in the short term (1 year), but over a longer period of 3 years, they have recorded gains ranging from 60% to 330% (Data Source: ACE Equity). However, a SWOT analysis reveals that, barring Blue Star, all other stocks do not appear promising as they have more weaknesses than strengths, as per trendlyne.com.
