Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Financial Services:
Market turned positive due to buoyancy from telecom stocks supported by tariff hike plans. Positive vibes also witnessed in PSU banks having exposure to distressed assets. Gains in Pharma, energy and infra stocks pushed markets higher while losses in Auto, metals and consumer stocks limited the gain. Fear of downgrade in FY20 earnings due to slow pace in consumption demand and industrial growth may consolidate the market in the near term.
Ajit Mishra, Vice President, Research, Religare Broking:
On the global front, investors are awaiting for US-China trade deal, as it would induce some volatility in the markets. Meanwhile, we continue to remain cautious on the markets in the near-term as it hovering around peak levels.
Manav Chopra, CMT, Head Research - Equity, Indiabulls Ventures:
Bulls continue to show resilience as buying activity continues. Banking is taking leadership during this phase of consolidation which is a good sign. Market breadth was tad negative but nothing alarming. Profit booking so far from 12k levels is shallow which suggests underlying strength in the market. Markets are much healthier now as the participation is wider. we continue to remain overall positive on the index and believe the index is poised to hit fresh all-time highs above 12,100 zone.
Sameet Chavan, Chief Analyst-Technical and Derivatives, Angel Broking:
For the coming session, traders need to keep a tab on above mentioned levels; but with a positional view, our bias still remains bullish and we advise traders to create longs in any such intraday declines. We reiterate that it’s a matter of time, we would see index traversing this intermediate barrier of 11950 to head towards all-time highs.
Although, indices are consolidating with no major momentum, bundle of individual stocks did extremely well for themselves. The Pharma space was clearly on a roll, especially some beaten down mid-cap names. Also, some of the marquee names from the Metal pack had shown good traction. We expect such individual themes to play out well during the remaining part of the week as well.”
Market Close: The benchmark indices ended higher on the back of buying seen in the PSU bank, infra and energy stocks.
