In other words, the markets remain polarized. That leaves fund houses to cherry pick stocks, especially in the mid and small-cap universe.<\/p>\n<p>Such stocks, of course, may not be too favoured by the market currently as they are beaten down for a reason \u2013 either because of sector downturn, or for being at too nascent a stage in an emerging industry or theme. These stocks also need patience in terms of holding to reach a stage ripe enough to deliver returns, but may hold the potential to become multi-baggers during an economic upturn.<\/p>\n<p>Fund houses seem to find opportunity in this segment in the current market scenario and hence, the launch of closed-end funds in this universe.
