Shrikant Chouhan, head (equity research), Kotak Securities, said: “For the trend following traders now, 81,000 would act as a sacrosanct support zone.Above 24700/81000, the market could continue the positive momentum 81,600-81,800. On the flip side, below 81,000 traders may prefer to exit out from the trading long positions.” Below which it could retest the level of 80,400-80,300.
Prashanth Tapse, Senior VP (Research), Mehta Equities, said: “Markets rebounded sharply from its lacklustre trades seen over past few sessions as buying in the beaten down IT stocks and select banking stocks pushed both Sensex & Nifty to new highs. Markets cheered the better-than-expected Q1 results of Infosys, which fuelled a rally in the IT pack. With a couple of trading sessions left before the budget announcement, investors have placed bets on stocks that had underperformed in the recent upsurge. Nifty’s 200 DMA is placed at 21732 mark which is comfortably scaling higher since many sessions from the past.”
Vaibhav Vidwani, Research Analyst at Bonanza Portfolio, said that Nifty and Sensex closed on positive note. Ahead of the Budget release, investors continued to trade cautiously, and negative signals from Europe and Asia further soured the mood. Globally, the dovish comment from the FED chief on inflation trajectory and a drop in US 10-year yield ahead of US retail sales data increased the likelihood of a rate cut in September which is supporting optimism in the market.
