The SEBI advisory to mutual funds relating to the extreme valuations in the mid and small cap schemes is more likely to restrain the efficiency of the broader market, says V Okay Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Financial Services. The irrational exuberance in the broader section has no basic justification, he added.
In distinction, the benchmark BSE Sensex is buying and selling flat. Small and mid cap indices have outperformed the benchmark indices for months now.
