While the markets have been correcting for some time, the pain of correction has been being felt more in the last three to four weeks. The reason, extremely negative market breadth and that too in the mid-cap segment. Until recently, corrections did not appear to be very obvious because one or the other sector kept witnessing sharp up moves and the whole focus of the market went there. So, sometimes it was railways stocks, sometimes power PSUs which keep the noise levels high. The reality is that corrections come and go, the only thing any investor needs to make sure of is that in any corrective phase, bias when making fresh investment should be toward large cap stocks as there is a possibility that they would see less damage in corrections which are stronger in nature due to global or macro developments.
