Over the past three consecutive quarters, mutual funds (MFs) have steadily increased their holdings in around 39 BSE midcap companies, including in the September 2026 quarter. Such sustained buying often draws retail investors’ attention, as MF investment decisions are generally supported by extensive research and detailed interactions with companies.Continued accumulation by institutional investors over multiple quarters can signal growing confidence in a company. However, despite sustained MF buying, most of these stocks have delivered negative returns in CY26 so far. Among them, five midcap stocks have gained between 15% and 75% during the period. We also highlight four major laggards that have declined by 30% to 45% in CY26 so far. (Data Source: ACE Equity). MF Buying Spree
