Stock Expert Speaks
Prashanth Tapse, Senior VP (Research), Mehta Equities
Markets are likely to see a firm opening on the back of sharp gains in the Gift Nifty index, although Asian indices are exhibiting a mixed trend. The two positive catalysts likely to aid sentiment are sluggish crude oil prices at USD 74.50 a barrel and both FIIs and DIIs turning net buyers of local stocks in Friday’s session. Investors are likely to maintain caution ahead of the exit polls of five state elections on 30 November.
Also, monthly F&O expiry this week will see investors covering their positions. Technically, if Nifty moves above the 19889 mark then it’s safe to assume that Christmas has come early to Dalal Street and stock markets across the globe.
