<p>The Smallcap and Midcap stocks led the gains in the larger indexes, which concluded in positive territory. Among the other sectors indexes, IT and Metal stocks did better, while PSU Banks and Financial Services stocks declined.</p>
<p>According to Vinod Nair, Head of Research at Geojit Financial Services, “the market was able to recover half of last trading day’s sell-off as leverage-based square-off neutralized it, while institutional buying sustained the buoyancy.”</p>
<p>Additionally, according to Nair, domestic economic data showed that wholesale price inflation (WPI) dropped to a four-month low in February of 0.2% YoY, easing the projected trend of the CPI and providing comfort for future rate decreases. The larger market is using Mid and Small cap as a negotiating tool to outperform the flagship indexes.</p>
