Investors with a five-year horizon can expect decent returns from small caps: Sahil Shah of Edelweiss MF

"Smallcap valuations are attractive compared with larger peers. Smallcap Index is trading at a discount to largecap index.

The current valuations of small-caps seem reasonable," says Sahil Shah of Edelweiss MF.

3 industries where managers of small‐cap mutual funds went looking for treasure

Small-cap fund managers in India have identified three sectors with high potential returns in recent years: specialty chemicals, consumer durables, and building materials. These sectors have outperformed others due to attractive valuations, above-average growth rates, and strong demand tailwinds. More than 95% of the small-cap funds in India have allocated investments in these sectors, although more than 50% of the fund managers have reduced weights and partially booked profits in the last year. The consumer durables industry has seen significant growth due to lifestyle changes and urbanization, while the specialty chemicals industry has witnessed phenomenal growth due to increasing demand from the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries. Building materials have been liked by small-cap fund managers due to their long-term growth prospects and direct link to the booming construction and infrastructure industry. Choosing the right sector and weightage is essential for producing alpha for fund managers.

How banks’ infra play will ensure another record year for bonds

India's infrastructure focus, particularly on roadways, appears to be moving at a fast pace, with banks playing a significant role in funding infrastructure. Despite reservations, banks have issued "infrastructure bonds" at a record high, and this greater acceptance could sustain the government's drive to boost the sector. Indian bond issuance is expected to become another record high as the government looks to crowd in private capex with its record capital expenditure. While it is traditionally preferred to use specialised institutions such as insurance and pension funds who have long-term liabilities, banks lending for infrastructure remains significant.

Learn With ETMarkets: Why do big traders prefer option writing over option buying?

Similar to how insurance companies make money despite the risk of payouts, option sellers rely on probabilities of gains. Option sellers may only lose money if the option turns against them, and they can make gains in other scenarios such as when the market goes up or even stays flat. Overall, option writing has become a popular strategy for big traders due to its high win probability. However, combining option buying and selling may lead to even greater profitability and win rates.

Gold slips as yields gain after US payrolls rise

Gold prices fell on Friday due to higher-than-expected US jobs data which led to an increase in Treasury yields. However, gold still experienced a weekly gain due to high unemployment rates indicating that the Federal Reserve may pause interest rate hikes. Currently, traders anticipate that there is a 70% chance of the Fed leaving rates unchanged later this month. The rise in interest rates lifts Treasury yields, making gold less attractive since gold has zero-interest yield. Silver prices also fell, while platinum and palladium experienced weekly losses.

US Treasuries rose by 10 basis points to 4.46% following the jobs report release; the odds of a June rate hike rose to 31%, up from 24% on the previous day.
