Dharmesh Kant, Head of Research at Chola Securities, expects the commodity upcycle to continue for another year despite near-term volatility. He sees any correction in metal prices as a long-term buying opportunity, supported by reconstruction activity in the Middle East and a revival in infrastructure spending in countries such as India. Kant remains positive on metals and prefers Hindalco, Hindustan Zinc, Vedanta, Tata Steel and JSW Steel on declines.
