Mumbai: On Thursday, the benchmark indices witnessed a lacklustre activity as BSE Sensex was down by 27 points. Among sectors, Media index gained over one per cent whereas Reality index shed nearly 1.5 per cent.
Technically, after a positive opening entire day the market hovered between 79,470 and 80,150. On intraday charts, market witnessing non-directional activity perhaps traders are waiting for either side breakout.
Shrikant Chouhan, head (equity research), Kotak Securities, said: “For the bulls now, 80,150 would be the immediate breakout zone. Above the same, the market could rally up to 80,500-80,700.” On the flip side, below 79,470 the selling pressure is likely to accelerate. Below which the market could slip till 79,100-79,000.
Prashanth Tapse, senior V-P (research), Mehta Equities, said: “After early volatility and a sharp fall thereafter, markets recouped most of its losses to end marginally lower at close on selective profit-taking despite optimism in global equities. We have already seen most of the rally part before the budget, hence investors would be cautiously optimistic and may take selective bets over the next few weeks.”
