In this episode of The 1% Club Show, Sharan Hegde sits down with Shashank Udupa, a SEBI Registered Research Analyst (INH000021207) and smallcase manager, to understand what actually happened to the Indian stock market; and how a rules-based quant strategy managed to generate alpha through one of the most volatile years in recent memory.Shashank is an ex-investment banker at 360 ONE and the co-founder of Avalon Meta, and has been investing for over a decade before turning full-time into research. He now manages the F.L.U.I.D family of smallcases, including the FLUID Q Quant basket that is available inside the 1% Club app. In this conversation, he opens up the actual performance chart of the basket and explains, month by month, every decision behind it including the cash call taken during a 10% index crash, why he refused to rebalance mid-cycle during a painful drawdown, and how one or two winners ended up carrying the entire year's returns.Guest Social Handles:Shashank UdupaLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/shashankudupa1Twitter/X: https://x.com/ShashankUdupa1Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/shashank_udupaWebsite: https://www.shashankudupa.co.inSubscribe:The 1% ClubInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/onepercentclubLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-1-clubfwsSharan HegdeInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/financewithsharanLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sharanhegde95Twitter/X: https://x.com/financewsharan—Sharan Hegde is a personal finance creator & founder of the 1% Club, simplifying money, markets, and mindset for India's next generation of wealth builders.—Timeline:00:00 - Introduction01:18 - Inside The New 1% Club App02:24 - Meet Shashank Udupa03:06 - Why Indian Markets Gave 0% Returns04:13 - How FII Outflows Changed The Market05:08 - When Corporate Profits Catch Up To Valuations06:15 - Large Cap vs Mid Ca
