Market Khabar 13th Sept 2010

Buoyed by better-than-expected US data, markets across the globe had a positive week during the week ended. Ignoring the surge in food inflation and flood situation in many parts of the country, benchmark indices closed at a 32-month high.

On the BSE, the Sensex surged towards 19,000-levels closing at 18,800 gaining 579 points and the Nifty on the NSE ended 161 points higher at 5,640. The indices are now only 11 per cent below their all-time high. Market breadth continued to be positive with heightened activity in many midcap and smallcap counters. Stick to stocks that have stood the test of time.

Weekend IIP numbers were pleasant surprise with exceptional performance from capital goods sector. Despite the base effect, analysts feel that the economy is slowly inching towards high-growth path.

However, the faster-than-expected growth has also revived expectations of monetary tightening by RBI in its next review. Barring any surprises from the global front, advance tax numbers and expectations over second quarter numbers may determine near term direction of markets.

For the week ahead, chartists predict a trading range of 18,520 and 19,180 for the Sensex and 5,500 and 5,780 for the Nifty. Strong resistance can come at 18,960 and 19,100 and 5,685 and 5,740. Immediate supports are at 18,670 and 18,540 and 5,610 and 5,560. Stock markets are becoming more and more volatile. The stock market reacts to breaking news by shooting stock prices higher one day, then pounding them lower the next. So, be flexible.

FUTURES & OPTIONS
Mirroring the strong bullish undertone, robust volumes were seen in the derivative segment. Sentiment indicators like open interest, implied volatility, put/call ratio and VIX reflect a positive undercurrent. Open interest build up in the Nifty5700 strike opti-ons reflects bullish trend in the market currently.

Metal stocks are back in the limelight. Tata Steel, JSPL and Hindalco look good for targets of Rs 650, Rs 800 and Rs 210 in next few weeks. Capital goods stocks BHEL, L&T, Crompton Greaves, BGR Energy, Voltas and Cummins can touch targets of Rs 2,650, Rs 1,975, Rs 340, Rs 900, Rs 255 and Rs 800 in the near term.

US restrictions on outsourcing is unlikely to hurt IT majors significantly. Analysts feel that present sloganeering is only for election gains. Accumulate on declines good counters like Infosys, TCS, HCL Tech and Wipro. Disclosure of Satyam’s restated results may give fillip to stock price of Tech Mahindra.

Led by SBI, banking counters were on a roll. Further gains are likely in BOI, BOB, Corporation Bank, ICICI Bank, IDBI Bank, Kotak Bank, Federal Bank and PNB. Ride the boom in the sector with trailing stop loss.

Neglected sectors such as fertilisers, sugar and paper are getting a‘re-look’ from savvy punters. Stories of decontrol, price revisions are doing rounds. Adopt buy on rumour; sell on news strategy. Among the stocks looking good are Chambal Fertiliser, Dabur, Godrej Industries, HCC, IDFC, Noida Toll, Piramal Health, Opto Circuits, United Spirits and Onmobile.

A good trader need to have — A chronic inability to accept things at face value, to feel continuously unsettled, and to have humility.
