There is no doubt that the market is going through a volatile phase and bears are once again telling the street to never write them off. Will this correction continue even longer ? It would probably be clear by the end of the day as the election result finally gets settled. Instead of focusing on how much nifty or bank nifty or any other index is down or up, focus on the fact that whether the sector or company is doing well and will it do well in future because the fundamental operating matrix of that sector has changed for better. Because volatile phases come and go, changes in the operating matrix don't happen every day. Pharmaceutical is one sector where there is a fundamental change taking place and it has happened after 8 to 10 years of restructuring and painful readjustment. So, it would be worthwhile to have them on watchlist and if the market remains volatile then it is a sector which probably has a higher probability of outperforming.
