Top stocks to buy or sell today: Stock recommendations for July 7, 2025 - here's what brokerages are saying
Top stocks to buy or sell (AI image) Nuvama has downgraded its rating on Trent to hold from buy and cut its target price to Rs 5,884 from Rs 6,627. The analysts believe Trent Hypermarket (Star Bazaar) can become bigger than Westside and Zudio given the size of the food industry. Star Bazaar is focused on the company's branded products while Big Basket is relatively more expensive. There are no plans to merge these two businesses. Trent plans to add over 250 stores in all formats combined for FY26 and may add more depending on market conditions and availability of investable properties. However, current run rate falls short of management's aspiration of 25% growth over the next few years. Pickup in Zudio Beauty and the Star business can become the next big growth levers but these businesses need to stabilise before scaling up.
