    While the September series has started on a slow note, with benchmark indices Nifty and Sensex closing the first session with a 0.3% decline, the current week is expected to be loaded with top action. Experts have selected six stocks for investors that could potentially deliver gains of up to 19% in the short term. The stocks to buy are Blue Star, Marico, Bharat Heavy Electricals (BHEL), Ola Electric, Wipro, and Maruti Suzuki. Here’s why:

    BLUESTARCO has shown strong momentum over the past few weeks and has broken out of a 'Cup and Handle' pattern on the daily chart. The stock has retraced to the neckline of the breakout, which coincides with the 200-day SMA, indicating a likely bounce. Momentum indicators and positive EMA crossovers suggest the stock may sustain its uptrend.
