However, there is a silver lining for readers looking beyond the broader market sentiment. Certain small-cap stocks are defying the odds and resuming their bullish momentum. These stocks are breaking out on the charts and showing strong potential to outperform the market soon.
On Tuesday, we highlighted three breakout stocks that help you beat the stock market selloff. Before we head to the stocks list, let us analyse the Nifty Smallcap 250 index chart.
Nifty Smallcap 250 Chart
The Nifty Smallcap 250 index, which tracks the performance of smaller companies, is currently at a crucial support level. The 200-day exponential moving average (200DEMA) channel, created by plotting the high and low values of the 200DEMA, has proven to be an effective indicator.
Over the past 18 months, this index has demonstrated remarkable, bullish opportunity, consistently bouncing back from the 200DEMA support and pushing higher. This trend suggests that small-cap stocks are positioned well to resume their upward trajectory despite the broader market’s weakness.
