The underlying fabric of the market in the last 8-10 days seems to be getting slightly weak.

If you want to take that kind of risk on smallcaps that is okay, on a 30-stock portfolio you say okay 2% or 5% I will risk on a couple of smallcap stocks but in a centre of plate or large companies to see governance issues or compliance issues, that becomes a very big red flag and especially in India. When you have so many alternatives, why go down that route?” What is happening to the markets? We reached fresh high levels and then this sudden bout of profit booking comes in.
