Retail pain rises as smallcap stocks miss the bluechip party: Is the undercurrent turning bearish?

Image
[hfe_template id='11223'] [ad_1] As the Sensex danced 1,300 points higher this week, toasting a 1.6% gain, the smallcap brigade looked like it had shown up at the wrong party — or worse, got turned away at the gates. The BSE Smallcap Index slipped 1.33%, and the real drama unfolded deeper down: at least 50 smallcap stocks crashed into double-digit losses, some nosediving as much as 18%. Call it the tale of two markets. On one side, heavyweight Reliance Industries — India’s most valued stock — roared 9% higher, buoyed by a Q4 earnings glow and a fresh wave of FII love. On the other hand, investors in names like Gensol Engineering, Tejas Networks, Sterling and Wilson Renewable Energy, Godrej Agrovet, and Senco Gold lost money. Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) pumped nearly $1 billion into Indian equities this week, drawn in by a softening dollar and the stability of bluechips. But while the giants soaked in the inflows, investors used the rally as an exit cue from br...

We expect a re-rating to follow this growth," Morgan Stanley analyst Mayank Maheshwari said, setting the t...

Reliance Industries shares down 25% from peak, Rs 5.4 lakh crore gone! Time to pounce?

[hfe_template id='11223'] [ad_1] Shares of billionaire Mukesh Ambani-led Reliance Industries (RIL) have been under bear pressure, shedding 25% of its value since hitting a record high of Rs 1,608.95 on BSE on July 8. Investors have seen a staggering Rs 5.4 lakh crore vanish as foreign institutional investors (FII) sold the bluechip stock amid a retail slowdown and weak refining margins. The stock has underperformed Nifty by 10% since January 2024, fueling extreme pessimism. However, a glimmer of hope has emerged—RIL has rebounded 4% in the last two trading sessions, suggesting some bottom-fishing. But is this just a dead-cat bounce, or is the worst truly over? Pessimism at Extreme Levels Analysts at Jefferies believe the current valuation is overly bearish, noting that the market cap now implies an enterprise value of just $48 billion for RIL’s retail business, compared to $106 billion in its last funding round. “A combination of same-store sales growth and area addition...
