Small Caps Rise, Blue Chips Stumble 

Tehran stocks were mixed on Tuesday as most small-size companies gained while blue chips faltered. 
The equal-weighted index of Tehran Stock Exchange gained more than 0.5%. This index better reflects the performance of small caps as it gives the same weight to all listed companies stocks.
Selloff pressure in many large caps dragged down the market cap-weighted TSE benchmark, TEDPIX, to slightly below the flatline. TEDPIX lost 424.30 points or 0.03% to wrap up trade at 1,399,889.
