Trading Guide:
Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Financial Services reportedly quoted as saying,a rebound in the global market and an ease in domestic CPI inflation provided respite to the broader indices. This may provide some leeway for RBI in its next policy meet; however, rising oil prices and higher 10-year yields will be watched carefully. The IT sector weighed down amid concerns over weak earnings guidance for Q4. The domestic sentiment will be more inclined towards the ongoing earnings season and upcoming union budget, which has a mixed view.
Market experts have recommended five shares to buy—Madhya Bharat Agro Products, Piramal Pharma, Healthcare Global Enterprises, Anjani Portland Cement, and BSE.
