TEDPIX Fell 0.4% While the Equal-Weight Index Set a Record Close; a Fourth Straight Session of Small-Cap Outperformance (Saturday, 1 August 2026)

On Saturday 1 August 2026 (10 Mordad 1405), Tehran's board carried two contradictory headlines: TEDPIX closed down 20,437 points (0.40%) at 5,054,000, while the equal-weight index rose more than 6,694 points to 1,439,000, its highest close on record and a fourth consecutive session of small-cap outperformance. The less-noticed detail: that record was set on a day when more than 1,300 billion tomans of retail money left the market.
