0
Helped by positive global cues and foreign inflows, the headline indices rose for the fourth consecutive session today. Power, auto and telecom stocks were among the top sectoral gainers while pharma ended in the red.

Here’s how analysts read the market pulse:

Prashanth Tapse – Research Analyst, Senior VP (Research), Mehta Equities, said the simple strategy on the benchmark Nifty is to establish long positions and remain a buyer as long as Nifty trades above its biggest interweek support at 16,821 mark.

Deepak Jasani, Head of Retail Research, HDFC Securities, said going by the current momentum, Nifty could test 17,457-17,651 band over the next few days. “A lot of up gaps on the way up also raise the possibility of these gaps being filled after Nifty makes an intermediate top.”
