Everyone wants to find the elusive multibagger.
The next 10x stock. It sounds exciting.
It feels like a shortcut to wealth.
But in reality, this mindset can destroy your portfolio and peace of mind.
...............................................
Yes, some stocks grow 5x, 10x, even 50x. But-:
No one knows a stock will be a multibagger at the time they buy it.
In hindsight, everything looks obvious. In real-time, it's just uncertainty.
The reality is that less than 2% of NSE stocks turned out to be 10x+ multibaggers in the last 15 years.
................................................
Even if you pick the right stock:
You might sell too early during a bad quarter.
You might panic during a crash.
You might switch when something else moves faster.
The problem isn’t just analysis. It’s behavior.
................................................
So, rather than chasing the next multibagger, it is prudent to:
Build a portfolio of high-quality businesses with strong fundamentals
Invest with discipline, diversification, and a long-term mindset
Let time and compounding work quietly behind the scenes
And stay patient through market cycles
Because multibaggers are not found — they’re held.
And the truth is:
Most people don’t miss multibaggers because they didn’t find them.
They miss them because they didn’t hold them long enough.

Even legendary investor Peter Lynch said, “All of my best investments started off looking like losers.”
