Market Experts' Insights
Prashanth Tapse, Senior VP (Research), Mehta Equities
The Dow Jones Industrial Average has hit 40,000 for the first time, buoyed by optimism from a softer-than-expected April inflation report, which has increased bets on a September rate cut by the Federal Reserve. This positive sentiment extends to Indian markets, with the Nifty likely trading between 22000-22500, facing resistance at 22500 and support at 22000. Key stock picks include TVS Motors, Indian Hotels, IRCTC, and Coal India. Notably, Balrampur Chinni is recommended for buying at CMP 379, targeting 395/403 with aggressive targets at 419 due to its oversold status. Corporate results from major companies like JSW Steel and Pfizer are also expected today.
