Money Times Talk (MTTs) – 23/02/26

  • As per astrology view, some important turning dates are 24th, 27th February and 3rd, 6th, 10th, 12th and 16th March 2026.
  • Alert-alert-alert: Domestic MFs and SIP flows have largely offset FII exits over the past two years. However, heavy losses in SME, small- and mid-caps and several IPOs have hurt retail sentiment. Despite stable Sensex and Nifty, nearly 80-90% stocks remain 30-90% below peaks. As per market grapevine, weary investors may slow fresh equity flows and shift towards PPF, bank FDs, debt funds and precious metals, which could keep cash volumes muted in March.
  • Alert IPOs: Post-listing pain persists. PhysicsWallah down 37%, Ola Electric 80%, FirstCry 68%, Swiggy 46% and Meesho 40%. The trend revives valuation concerns. Quant MF CIO Sandeep Tandon cautioned that investors are paying unrealistic IPO valuations, driven more by greed than fundamentals.
  • Multibagger Mantra: True multibaggers typically emerge from five pillars – megatrend, earnings explosion, scalable business, clean and investor-friendly promoters, and the ability to hold. The first four are analytical; the fifth tests conviction and patience.
  • Brokerage Radar: Emkay downgraded Ola Electric to Sell with TP Rs. 20 from Rs. 50. Kotak Securities also maintained Sell with TP Rs. 20, citing weak volumes and earnings visibility. The firm may face continued losses through FY26–FY28.
