Tackling volatility, qualitative & quantitative way: 4 small cap stocks with long term perspective
The way the market slipped on Friday, probably is another reminder that even the best of the bull market corrections are going to come. The problem with the corrective move is that if it sustains for longer, it is the small caps stocks which come under more pressure and shed an inordinate amount of weight. There is a technical reason for this, the liquidity in small caps stocks is lower as compared to large and midcaps. So, whenever there is a selling in this segment, the impact cost is always higher. But the other fact is that if one is able to hold on small at the time when correction is taking place, probability of more than normal return is also higher. But the question is how does one develop the ability to hold onto stocks when the narrative which is being governed by price action becomes so negative. The solution lies in combining a couple of things, which include qualitative and quantitative measure and last but not least ability to ignore noise.
