🚨 SME Results Season: Reality Check for All! 🚨 1️⃣ This season, a staggering 90-95% of SMEs reported disappointing numbers. Despite all the hype during the bull run, most couldn’t back it up with real performance. 2️⃣ Bull Market Illusions: When markets soared, many SMEs flashed impressive results—mostly to attract QIP/funding. Now, with the rally cooling off, it’s clear those “great” numbers were often just for show. 3️⃣ Even Experts Got Trapped: Let’s be honest—even seasoned investors got caught up in the euphoria and backed the wrong stories. This is a humbling reminder: we’re all human. Don’t take anyone’s words as gospel. Always DYOR (Do Your Own Research). 4️⃣ Broken Promises: #tgl and many others promised the moon, but reality turned out the opposite. No wonder investors are rethinking their approach to SMEs. 5️⃣ Smart Money Shifting: Now, funds are moving out of weak SMEs and into those with real fundamentals—where both results and guidance inspire confidence. Only the best will thrive from here. 6️⃣ Look Beyond Stories—Focus on Promoters: In SME investing, the real edge isn’t in chasing stories—it’s in spotting good promoters. Any promoter giving aggressive future guidance without a solid track record (especially in the first few quarters after listing) is a red flag. Always check how the company has performed for 2-3 quarters post-listing before trusting their projections. 7️⃣ Beware the Listing Euphoria: Most SME IPOs debut with lots of buzz, but 95% will eventually trade below their issue price. Before investing long-term, always read the RHP/DRHP, and watch the promoter’s interviews on YouTube to judge intent and clarity. Never trust an SME IPO before it’s proven itself with at least 1 year of results. 8️⃣ Kedia Sir Was Right: As @VijayKedia1 always says: “In the long run, only quality prevails. Stories fade, but solid execution stands tall.” 🔍 Bottom line: The SME shakeout is ON. Stories won’t cut it anymore—focus on consistent results, credible guidance, and promoter quality. Nobody is infallible in the markets. Among the top 5% of good SMEs, only about 1% will become future multibaggers. Your edge? Deep research, patience, and the discipline to ignore the noise. These are my personal views and not a financial recommendation of any sort. Please do your own research before making any investment decisions. #sme #investing #stockmarket #results #multibagger
