Fundamental view
VK Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services predicts Sensex to reach 80,000 level given the current market momentum.
"The healthy trend in the recent rally is that it is driven by fundamentally strong largecaps like RIL, Bharti Airtel and leading private sector banks. However, corrections can happen any time since the market is in the overbought zone and DIIs are booking profits," he said.

"The zone near 78,600 would be the near-term support for index whereas 77,500 shall be maintained as a strong support," she added.
