In this short video the panel discuss sectors and stocks that they like and how they handle a holding that gets crushed after missing investor expectations.   *Panel: Matthew Kidman from Centennial Funds is joined by Ben Rundle from NAOS, and Sam Granger from Totus Capital.* Key points: - As a whole reporting season should be ok but most of the growth is likely to be driven by the resources sector. - Sectors that have structural tailwinds should report quite well given the strong activity on the east coast. Ben Rundle likes Adelaide Brighton (ASX:ABC) as an exposure to this sector. - Small caps have already delivered some bombs with Isentia and Navitas. Sam Granger says he is cautious of companies that have had operational issues in the past 18 months. - If your holding gets crushed you should avoid getting anchored to the previous share price. - On the upside, if a holding delivers a great result this can lead to good momentum for an extended period of time. - Both speakers share a stock they think can surprise on the upside #### Watch Next: You can access more great market insights from Ben Rundle from Buy Hold Sell on [Offshore Earners Under Pressure](https://blog.naos.com.au/news-media/ben-rundle-offshore-earners-under-pressure) and [Five Market Darlings](https://blog.naos.com.au/news-media/ben-rundle-five-market-darlings) with nosebleed valuations.
