Analysts at Morgans have been running the rule over the market ahead of earnings season next month.
One area of the ASX that the broker has been looking at is the small cap space.
The good news for investors that dabble with the small side of town is that its analysts believe that the tide is turning for small cap ASX shares, making now a great time to make some investments.
The broker commented:
Small-caps continue to look constructive. Small-caps have historically bounced hardest upon confirmation of a flattening-out in the rates cycle. Several ingredients remain in place supporting a rebound in this space (rates, trading/fundamentals, sentiment/positioning). We think the tide is turning for small-caps, and now is an opportune time to build exposure to forgotten small-caps.
