21-Dec-09

Markets were trading with negative bias throughout the week and corrected sharply after consolidating in narrow range last week. The market breadth was negative and the fall was more or less across the board. Pharma, Technology and Cement were the sectors which stood out for their outperformance. Ranbaxy, ACC, HCL Tech, Wipro, Cipla, Sun Pharma and Infosys were among the top gainers while Unitech, Axis Bank, IDFC, HDFC Bank, RCom and DLF for the top losers in Nifty.

The global cues are mixed we may witness some range bound activity back home. Nifty closed below 5000 once gain after repeated attempts to breach 5200 failed during the past one month. Immediate term resistance on Nifty remains at 5070 and a strong short term resistance remains above 5150. Supports exist at 4940 and further at 4800. Long positions must be exited if it manages a close below 4940. Markets may trade stock specific and hence short term trading is recommended with adequate stoplosses. Metals look particularly strong and we expect weakness in Banking stocks.
