The recent correction in the market has been primarily led by rising bond yields in the US and concerns around the rising coronavirus cases. The benchmark index Sensex fell over 6 percent from its recent high of 52,516.76 (recorded on February 16, 20201) to 49180.31 on March 24. 2021. A similar or much worse crash was seen in individual stocks as well. From a technical perspective, when a counter is trading much below its 52-week high, the valuations can be looked at. But at the same time, it should be above its 200-daily moving average. The 200-DMA can help traders filter stocks that are showing signs of strength amid market volatility. The general rule is if a stock is trading above its 200-DMA the trend is largely upward, although there could be a short-term downward movement. On analysis, Moneycontrol found there are 11 stocks among the BSE500 index that have fallen more than 25 percent from their 52-week high but are still trading above their 200-DMA.
