Previous Week : Sensex rose by 4.3% to close at 19966
Our markets rebounded well after a swift fall and closed at 5992 after seeing a low of 5690 in the previous week. Both domestic and global news pulled the indices in the green in the previous week. Positive GDP numbers for Q2FY11, strong US employment numbers and upbeat economic data from China fuelled the rally across globe. Metals, IT, banking, oil & gas and pharma lead the pullback in our markets.




The S&P CNX Nifty also jumped by 241 points or 4.2% to close at
5992 for the week
It was a week full of positive surprises and we saw a stellar
response to the MOIL IPO
This shows that the appetite for quality government paper is still very
strong and the pipeline continues to remain healthy
The disinvestment ministry is now looking to divest a stake in IOC
and PFC
WeeAhead : We advise to add banking stocks on dips and avoid real estate and metals
The key question now is can we go higher? Or is it a technical bounce from oversold territory? We were not expecting such a swift recovery from the lows of the previous week and were caught wrong footed. We believe that if we can sustain above the 6030-6050 zone for a couple of days then we can see the levels of 6150-6200 in a short time.
We would stick to our view to stay with blue chip names in such a
market where we are witnessing a sharp cut in a few midcap counters
We are positive on Auto, FMCG, IT and Pharma sectors
We advise to add banking stocks on dips and avoid real estate and
metals
The liquidity scenario will remain tight with a strong IPO pipeline and
advance tax outflows in December
As a pre-emptive step, the RBI has announced liquidity easing
measures by allowing banks to borrow up to 2% of their NDTL till January 28. Since 1996, in 12 out of 14 times, the Nifty has given positive returns in December
To sum it up, we are cautiously optimistic on the markets and are
recommending addition of quality stocks at lower levels
