Small, mid caps press 52-week highs: 7 at 100%

Seven small and mid caps are pressing 52-week highs. They trade at 100% of their 52-week range. Not 99%. Not 98%. The absolute top. Add Honasa Consumer at 97%, and you have a cluster where the market has already done the repricing.

The uncomfortable question: what has to go right from here? For the high-P/E names, earnings need to accelerate. Not just grow. Accelerate. For the low-P/E names, the cycle cannot roll over.
