Sensex flirts with 39,000; over 40 smallcap stocks rose 10-40% in 5 sessions

The S&P BSE Sensex which hit a record high of 39,270 in the week gone by failed to hold on to the momentum, but closed 0.49 percent higher at 38,862 for the week ended April 5. The Nifty50 too failed to close above the 11,700-mark, but recorded gains of 0.36 percent for the week. Benchmark indices witnessed some profit booking at higher levels, however, the real action was in select stocks that hogged the limelight.

In the S&P BSE 500 index as many as 11 stocks rose 10-30 percent which include names like Forbes & Company, SAIL, HSIL, Shankara Building, Tata Motors, Godrej Properties, and The Lakshmi Vilas Bank among others. The broader market underperformed benchmark indices as the S&P BSE Smallcap index rose 0.12 percent while the S&P BSE Midcap index gained 0.19 percent in the same period.

Experts predict that market action can get skewed towards select stocks as we kick-start the earnings season this week. In terms of benchmark indices, volatility is likely to continue until the elections conclude. The S&P BSE Sensex might have touched record highs in the first week of April, but only a handful of names in the S&P BSE 500 index witnessed fresh 52-week highs with most names belonging to the mid and smallcap space.

As many as 28 stocks in the S&P BSE 500 index touched fresh 52-week highs which include names like ICICI Bank, Titan Company, Atul, HCL Technologies, PI Industries, Varun Beverages, Bajaj Finance, Pidilite Industries, HDFC, Godrej Properties, and Bajaj Finserv among others.

But, most of the stocks which hit a fresh 52-week high witnessed profit taking. Almost 40 percent of these stocks witnessed selling pressure at higher levels as they closed the week on a negative note including ICICI Bank, UPL, Havells India, Gujarat Fluro, Titan, etc.
