Sensex, Nifty 50 close flat, mid & small-cap stocks bleed amid hawkish Fed, rising geopolitical tensions
Stock market today: Indian stock market witnessed another lackluster performance during Thursday's trading session, June 19, as weak global cues and a lack of fresh domestic triggers kept investors away from risky assets, leaving the frontline indices largely unchanged. While blue-chip stocks saw little movement, mid- and small-cap stocks faced heavy selling pressure throughout the day, as their expensive valuations raised investor concerns amid ongoing market challenges. The Nifty 50 shed 19 points, or 0.08%, to close at 24,793 while the Sensex ended 83 points lower, or 0.10%, at 81,361. The Nifty Midcap 100 and Nifty Small Cap each lost nearly 2% in trade. As widely expected, the US Federal Reserve kept its policy rate unchanged for the fourth consecutive time but warned that Donald Trump's trade policies could drive up prices. Policymakers revised their Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) inflation forecast for 2025 to 3.0%, up from the earlier projection of 2.7%, and consequently lowered the GDP growth forecast for 2025 to 1.4% from 1.7%. Policymakers expressed concerns that Trump's policies are already starting to impact the economy. Their remarks aligned with recent warnings from the IMF and the World Bank. The Fed also signaled a slower pace of rate cuts, now projecting only two reductions by the end of the year. On the geopolitical front, tensions between Iran and Israel have entered their seventh day, with no signs of de-escalation. In a fresh barrage of attacks, Iran launched 25 missiles in a fresh attack on Israel, with missiles reportedly taking down the Israeli stock exchange building. On Wednesday, Donald Trump confirmed he was considering a military strike on Iran's nuclear facilities, although he stated that no final decision had been made. In response, Iran's Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, warned the US of 'irreparable damage' if it proceeds with military action—indicating that the ongoing Middle East conflict may persist in the coming days. On the domestic front, the Indian economy showed early signs of slowing income growth. Advance tax collections by the Centre rose by only 4% year-on-year to ₹ 1.54 trillion as of June 15 in FY26. This is a sharp drop from the 27% growth recorded during the same period last year, primarily due to lower personal income tax payments. Public sector banks—particularly mid- and small-cap counters—saw a sharp sell-off in today's trading session, resulting in a 2% drop in the Nifty PSU Bank index, making it the worst-performing sector of the day. Media stocks, which had remained resilient in recent sessions, also came under pressure, with the Nifty Media index falling 1.78%. The decline in real estate stocks continued, sending the Nifty Realty index down 1.55%, while metal stocks also remained weak, pushing the Nifty Metal index lower by 1.21%. Hawkish commentary from the US Federal Reserve weighed on IT stocks as well, with the Nifty IT index losing 0.96%. On the positive side, Nifty Auto was the only sectoral gainer, managing to defy the broader trend and ending the session with a gain of 0.50%.

Smallcaps soar Rs 75 lakh crore in value over 7 years, growing 5x: Study
India's small-cap stocks have added a staggering Rs 75 lakh crore in market value since 2017, ballooning from Rs 17 lakh crore to Rs 92 lakh crore by end-2024, a fivefold jump driven by a 27.6% compound annual growth rate, according to a study by Bajaj Finserv Asset Management Company (AMC). This sharp rise dwarfs the returns of large-cap and mid-cap peers and underscores the growing clout of small caps in India's equity landscape. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Many Are Watching Tariffs - Few Are Watching What Nvidia Just Launched Seeking Alpha Read Now Undo The study found that while large-cap and mid-cap indices posted a CAGR of 14.5% and 21.6% respectively between 2017 and 2024, small caps have firmly outpaced them. More telling was the contribution of small-cap companies to the overall market capitalisation, which rose 1.4 times over the past three years, even as their share of corporate profits swelled 2.5 times in the last four years. Despite a modest 4% rise in the small-cap index since FY24, the segment saw a 38% jump in profit after tax (PAT) during FY25, climbing from Rs 21,669 crore to Rs 29,941 crore. Bajaj Finserv AMC pointed out that this decoupling between prices and earnings suggests 'unrealized value' in the space. Moreover, the study noted that '74% of the top 250 small-cap companies reported a double digit returns on capital employed (ROCE),' signaling strong fundamentals despite recent price corrections. Live Events Quality is key as volatility persists The second half of FY25 saw a correction in small-cap stocks, with most still trading below their 52-week highs as of April 2025. This has opened up 'an opportunity to accumulate quality small caps at better valuation,' the study said. Still, the volatility underscores the importance of selectivity. Bajaj Finserv AMC warns that 'nearly 50% of small-cap companies from 2017 have declined into the micro-cap category,' reinforcing the risk of indiscriminate exposure. Although 196 small-cap IPOs hit the market since 2020, only four have transitioned to mid-cap status and none to large-cap territory — further highlighting the need for careful stock selection. Quality index outshines peers Bajaj Finserv AMC emphasized that quality small caps have consistently outperformed their broader counterparts. 'The Nifty Small Cap 250 Quality 50 TRI has outperformed the Nifty Small Cap 250 TRI in 14 of the last 19 financial years,' the study said. In fact, the quality index 'delivered higher returns than all other indices in nine financial years from FY10,' with evidence that it has weathered volatility better in 17 of the past 19 financial years. Additionally, in some years, the Small Cap Quality index 'has exhibited lower standard deviation than large caps,' the study said, underlining its potential for steadier performance. While smallcaps remain prone to cyclical movements and elevated risk, the study presents a case for investors to reassess the segment with a quality lens. The long-term outperformance of quality indices and growing earnings power signal a maturing sector, albeit one that still demands rigorous screening and discipline.
