What is 52 week low?

The 52-week low in the stock market refers to the lowest price a stock has traded over the past 52 weeks (or one year). It helps investors understand the stock's worst performance in the last year.

Importance:

  • Performance Benchmark: Indicates the stock's lowest point, helping assess how much it has recovered or declined.
  • Support Level: Often seen as a price where buying interest might increase, preventing further decline.
  • Investor Sentiment: A stock near its 52-week low may signal undervaluation or potential for a rebound.

Example: If a stock’s 52-week low is ₹300, it means it hasn’t traded below ₹300 in the last year.
