Abhijith Chennat: I hold below stocks and the price I paid with current return trend. Most of them were bought in the last 6 months. Looking for a long term investment. 

My concern is too much of Health/Pharma/Chemical exposure in my portfolio due to the recent trend although most are in Positive now. I want to avoid a few weak players if possible from these sectors. 

Also, the number of stocks in portfolio also too high (close to 50 stocks). To be frank, I have done some minimal analysis on most (except bluechip ones), but now it's getting out of hands to track.
