Midcaps and smallcaps to contribute to profitability this time: Experts

Wednesday, October 13, 2021

People should always focus on high-quality companies but the opportunity set itself is going to be very different from the ones that we saw in 2018 and 2019 where the markets got very narrow on the top. I see a much wider breadth of industries starting to contribute to the overall profit pool, say, experts. Actually, they believe that while there has been a very strong consolidation in every sector and the big are getting bigger and the strong are getting stronger, the breadth of the market is likely to remain much wider and the opportunity set is likely to remain much wider. People should always focus on high-quality companies but the opportunity set itself is going to be very different from the ones that we saw in 2018 and 2019 where the markets got very narrow on the top.

Are we heading into second phase of bull market?

Are we heading into second phase of bull market?

Friday, August 13, 2021

A very important trait of any bull market is that it should have a very good breadth. as of now large caps, midcaps, small-cap all have been doing well. Almost all sectors and even the biggest laggards are doing well and that is very positive. We are staring at two parallel markets. Nifty at an all-time high, blue sky. But there are dark clouds over mid and small-cap stocks. We just need to take a step back and understand the price action that has led up to this move. If you take the Covid bottom in March 2020, from there the small-cap index has been up 233% and the Nifty is up 116% or 118%. What has happened is that from the base, the small caps have outperformed the Nifty. If that is taken into perspective, it is very logical that at some point in time, the large caps need to catch up or the small caps need to rest. Read more

Sensex soared 613 pts; Nifty at 15,108 levels; MidCap index hits record peak

Tuesday, May 18, 2021

India's midcap rally amid Covid may be poised for a break

Thursday, April 22, 2021

The outperformance of India’s midcap stocks over the larger stocks since the coronavirus pandemic engulfed global markets may take a breather. Some Fund managers are currently avoiding midcaps based on global economic cues and valuations.

The S&P BSE Midcap Index has outperformed the benchmark S&P BSE Sensex Index in all but five months since the end of 2019, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. The smaller stock measure has gained nearly 33% in that span, more than double the rise in the broader benchmark, with the outperformance becoming particularly pronounced amid the recent market chill.
