Jefferies' Christopher Wood Reshuffles India Portfolio, Adds MCX, Lenskart, Bajaj Finance
Jefferies strategist Christopher Wood has reshuffled his India long-only portfolio by removing HDFC Bank and PB Fintech's PolicyBazaar, adding Multi Commodity Exchange of India (MCX), Lenskart Solutions, and Bajaj Finance with equal weightings. The portfolio adjustments also include increasing Eternal's allocation and reducing Bharti Airtel's weight. This shift reflects a focus on exchange infrastructure and consumer retail amid renewed foreign investor interest and strong domestic economic indicators, with the portfolio benchmarked against the MSCI India Index.
