Market Outlook—February 3, 2010


Dealer’s Diary
The Indian markets recouped the losses of the previous trading session, as they traded with strong gains throughout the day, without any major volatility. The indices witnessed a gap-up opening, along expected lines, as global indices traded with gains in excess of 1%. The BSE Sensex and the NSE Nifty soared by 2.1% each. The BSE Mid-cap and Small-cap indices underperformed the benchmark indices and gained 1.5% and 1.1%, respectively. Among the frontliners, Sterlite, Tata Steel, L&T, HDFC and Hindalco were up by 3-6%, while Sun Pharma was down by 1%. In the Mid cap segment, Prakash Ind., Blue Dart, Core Projects, Rajesh Exports and BGR Energy were up by 6-11%, while Spice Communications, CRISIL, HT Media, Andrew Yule and Simplex Infra were down by 3-6%
The trend deciding level for the day is 16420/4904 levels. NIFTY trades above this level during the first half-an-hour of trade then we may witness a further rally up to 16629–16763/4977–5022 levels. However, if NIFTY trades below 16420/4904 levels for the first half-an-hour of trade then it may correct up to 16287–16077/4859–4786 levels.
