It all started at the Pre-AGM (Annual General Meeting) Conference Call conducted on September 14, 2021, wherein one of the ace investors of the Indian equity market shared his pain about the performance of the stock.

The BSE Bankex was top sectoral index after BSE Telecom index and BSE Utilities index. BSE Bankex gained by 3.46 per cent in the week gone by. In 2021 alone BSE Bankex is up by ~21 per cent while in one year BSE Bankex has jumped by ~71 per cent. 

Several stocks we could see outperformed the markets in the past one week with at least 190 stocks jumping higher than 20 per cent in the past one week alone.

Clearly the stage belonged to the mid-caps in the week gone by with Zee Entertainment and Vodafone Idea creating maximum wealth for investors in such a short period of time.

BSE Sensex gained by 1.6 per cent in the past five days while BSE SmallCap index was up by 1.31 per cent.

Well, we are a cricket-crazy nation and since the cricket festival is coming, I believe that it would be interesting to look at the historical performance of the Indian equity markets, a month before the IPL, during the period of IPL, and also, one-month post IPL. Theodore Roosevelt had once said, "The more you know about the past, the better prepared you are for the future."  

Several stocks below Rs 100 per share saw jumped higher, outperforming markets. Few shares were locked in the upper circuit on Friday.

The market benchmark indices have erased the previous trading session's gains and Sensex has settled at 59,015.89 level, 0.21 per cent lower and Nifty ended at 17,585.15 level, 0.25 per cent down. The broader markets also dipped into red as the BSE Midcap index squeezed by 1.14 per cent and the BSE Smallcap index closed with a loss of 1.06 per cent. The sectoral indices also experienced selling pressure as most of the indices ended in red, the BSE Realty index being the weakest among all. 

Furthermore, Indian VIX index was surging with more speed and ferocity; however, it cooled off a bit in the dying hours of the trading session. As the volatility subsidised from the day’s high, some of the stocks witnessed a good recovery from the day’s low. We have come out with a list of stocks to help you know which stocks have recovered from mid-cap and small-cap space.   

Going ahead, the stock selection would be of high importance as it’s going to be stock picker’s market; hence, we have curated a list of stocks based on the T20 breakout system.
