Record high for Nifty, but 3 out of 5 stocks nowhere near record high. What’s the play for investors?

Despite Nifty and Sensex hitting record highs in 2025, most investors aren’t celebrating. Three out of five NSE 500 stocks remain far below their peaks, exposing a sharply narrow rally driven by a handful of largecaps. Experts advise shifting toward quality largecaps and midcaps as smallcaps continue to underperform.
