After blockbuster listing, what should you do with Zomato stock?

After a bumper debut, analysts advise short-term investors to book profit though long-term investors, they suggest, should continue to hold on to the counter and accumulate on a dip.

MARKET VIEW :: Dr. V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial

The legendry investor Howard Marks recently said, " We don't know where we go from here. But we should know where we are." This statement reflects the uncertainty & confusion about the future market trends, even among the best investor brains. It also cautions investors about the prevailing excessive valuations. The potent combination of superabundant liquidity and ever-rising retail investor participation ( 2.45 million new Demat accounts being opened on an average every month during April-June) is providing great resilience to the market. Retail is buying every dip while FIIs are selling every rise. From a fundamental perspective, the retail reaction is emotional while the FII response is rational. Emotion can dominate reason in the short run. Big events like Zomato listing, AGR case verdict & RIL results can influence stocks & the market today.
