Small Caps, Big Gains: 60 stocks deliver double-digit returns as markets hit a fresh high

Despite mixed signals in the global market, Indian benchmark indices recorded gains this week. The Sensex and Nifty50 both reached record highs, with the IT and private banking sectors showing notable recovery. The Nifty Energy, Nifty Oil & Gas, and Nifty Information Technology indices performed well, while the Nifty Realty, Nifty Media, and Nifty Metal indices experienced declines. Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) continued to acquire equities, further supporting the market. Attention will now turn to the release of US and Indian manufacturing data, the Fed Chair's speech, and the upcoming union budget proposals.

The billion dollar question: What to do in the markets now?

Devina Mehra, Founder and Chairperson of First Global, emphasizes that while there are high risks in certain areas of the market such as industry themes, small caps, and IPOs, she is not negative on mainstream stocks or indices on a two-year basis. She advises investors to book profits and move to a steadier portfolio if they have invested in areas that have seen significant gains. Mehra also highlights the importance of playing conservatively and warns against the misconception that high risk guarantees high returns. She concludes by sharing data on the volatility and unpredictability of small caps and urging investors to be cautious in this segment.

Riding a Wave of Optimism, Small and Midcaps Outshine Large-caps in May

In May, small and mid-cap stocks outperformed large-caps, with Nifty Smallcap 100 and Nifty Midcap 100 indices delivering stronger gains than the Nifty 50. Improved fundamentals, easing macro risks, and renewed investor interest contributed to this shift. Mid and small-caps are attracting attention due to cheaper price-to-earnings growth (PEG) ratios compared to large caps. The rally extends across various sectors, supported by strong corporate earnings and easing global and domestic risks, suggesting improving market sentiment.

Sensex, Nifty snap 3-day losing streak on financial, pharma boost

India's benchmark equity indexes Sensex and Nifty ended a three-day losing streak, rising 0.5% each due to gains in pharma and financial stocks, though concerns over foreign outflows remained. All major sectors advanced, with small-caps and mid-caps rising 0.4% and 0.8%, respectively. Financials increased by 0.6% and pharma by 1.3%, alleviated by U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' comments on drug price cuts. Information technology stocks also gained, boosting overall market performance.

Daily Voice: US elections not a major factor for Indian stocks, says TRUST MF's Mihir Vora

Mihir Vora, CIO of TRUST Mutual Fund, believes that US elections are not significant for Indian stocks. He predicts potential earnings downgrades in banks, metals, oil and gas, FMCG, and some large-cap IT stocks for Q2FY25. Vora suggests that the options for high-growth segments are predominantly in small-caps or mid-caps, and there is still ample scope for stockpicking in small-caps. He states that small-cap stocks offer growth-adjusted valuations that are not expensive and are well-suited to TRUST Mutual Fund's philosophy of 'Terminal Value Investing'. Vora also identifies undervalued sectors for investment, such as banks, NBFC, chemicals, defence, auto and ancillaries, and asset management. He believes that India remains a buy-on-dips market and the US elections have minimal impact on Indian stocks.

Why consumer firms are lagging benchmark indexes in India's sizzling stock market

Consumer stocks in India's booming economy are underperforming benchmark stock indexes. Despite double-digit gains, consumer firms selling everyday goods are struggling due to low income growth and volatile inflation impacting demand. Meanwhile, luxury goods are selling well. Private consumption, which contributes to 60% of economic growth, is expected to grow at the slowest rate in two decades. The wealth gap is also widening in India, with the richest 1% accumulating the highest concentration of wealth in six decades. This trend suggests that the premium segment, which sells high-end products, is experiencing growth while the broader consumer sector remains weak.

Why small caps will continue to sizzle

The BSE Midcap and BSE SmallCap indices experienced significant losses on Monday, falling 3.6% and 4.21% respectively. However, market experts believe there are enough driving factors to suggest that mid-cap and small-cap stocks will continue to outperform larger stocks in the near future. The strong systematic investment plan (SIP) flow in schemes focused on mid-caps and small-caps is seen as a major driver in sustaining this rally. Despite concerns over valuations, the consistent SIP inflows are supporting these segments. Investors are advised to maintain realistic expectations and proper asset allocation.

Equirus Flags Valuation Risks, Backs Large Caps and Rural Demand

Equirus Securities' report forecasts large caps leading India's equity market by 2025, fueled by rural demand resurgence. Overweight sectors include auto, cement, and FMCG, benefiting from rising rural incomes and favorable monsoons, indicating improved purchasing power. While small caps pose valuation risks, mid-caps offer visibility in growth areas. Domestic investors, bolstered by strong SIP inflows, play a crucial role, stabilizing demand. Monetary policy supports returns, and public capex remains robust despite some global uncertainties.

Investors get the whiff of higher value in high dividend yielding small-cap stocks

Amidst the recent sell-off in broader markets, some small-cap stocks are stabilizing and even outperforming the markets. The BSE Smallcap index has seen a 4.13% increase since March 13, while the benchmark BSE Sensex remains relatively flat. Several high dividend paying small-cap stocks have fallen sharply but are now stabilizing and gaining ground. Accumulation is observed in select small-cap stocks with high dividend yields, indicating a potential reversal in trend. Long-term investors seeking value in dividends may find opportunities in these stocks as the recent correction has improved their dividend yield. The expected earnings growth for small caps is also favorable, making them attractive to investors.
