Nifty (4253) Sup 4150 Res 4315
Rumours going around in the market that Radico Khaitan the maker of 8PM whisky might be an acquistion target. The stock rose more than a 13 percent on 3 times its usual volumes.GHCL, Gujarat Sidhee and Sasken are some of the stocks that look technically strong and would be worth keeping an eye on.
The market seemed to have rejected the exaggerated fears of the RBI move as benchmark indices advanced after a four-day drubbing. But don't accept the gains as a reversal in sentiment as yet. Most of the gains could be attributed to the short-squeeze ahead of the F&O expiry today. Things are not looking too bad for the bulls this morning either. US ended higher (though off the day's highs) after the Federal Reserve left its key rates steady and expressed concern on rising inflation
We expect our markets to follow the global trend and inch further up, driven by further short covering. Having said that, considerable risks still remain in the system due to multi-year high inflation and rising interest rates. The political situation still remains uncertain. So, don't go overboard. May sound too basic but remember to buy at dips and not at bouncy intra-day tops.
FIIs were net sellers of Rs3.64bn (provisional) in the cash segment on Wednesday while the local institutions poured in Rs5.3bn. In the F&O segment, foreign funds were net buyers of Rs1.11bn

The Indian Market is expected to have negative opening on the back of weak global cues, political uncertainty and rates hike by RBI. Tuesday, the Indian market closed in red for the fifth straight trading day backed by selling across the ground. The BSE Sensex fall below the 14,000 mark for the first time since late August 2007
Investors will have eye on the crucial meeting of the members of UPA with left scheduled today to decide on the fate of proposed deal between the Congress party and the U.S. President. Left parties had threatened to withdraw support if the government went ahead with the deal.
RBI on Tuesday raised its key lending rate and the CRR by 50 basis points each to tame inflation that hit a 13-year high early in June. As a second increase this month in its repo rate, the RBI raised the key lending rate to 8.5% from 8.0% with immediate effect. RBI will raise the cash reserve ratio to 8.75% from 8.25% in two stages, to 8.5% from July 5 and to 8.75% from July 19. These hikes will have adverse implications for the manufacturing sector, which have impact of high interest rates.
Today's Pick - Chambal Fertilisers
We recommend a sell in Chambal Fertilisers & Chemicals from a short-term perspective. From the charts to the stock we note that it had been on a medium-term uptrend from its March 2008 low of Rs 41, till it encountered resistance at Rs 94 in mid June.
The reversal from Rs 94 level has been supported by negative divergence in the daily moving-average convergence and divergence (MACD).
Recently, the stock penetrated the 21-day moving average and the medium-term up trendline, signalling bearishness. The daily MACD has displayed negative divergence and is indicating a sell.
The other daily momentum indicators are declining in the neutral region towards the bearish zone. Our short-term forecast for the stock is negative. We anticipate the stock’s down move to continue until it hits our price target of Rs 66 in the upcoming trading sessions. Traders with short-term perspective can sell the stock while maintaining stop-loss at Rs 79
For the time being there is no fear of the unknown. The RBI has done what he can and we haven’t seen the last of hikes as yet. Just the other day the RBI governor Dr. Reddy had hinted at a "calibrated" approach to control inflation.In what seems to be a desperate political move to reign in inflation, the RBI has hiked both the repo rate and the CRR by half a percentage points each. We hear that a section of the market was perhaps aware of something like this in the offing. That explains the sharp fall yesterday in the last half an hour. The bloodbath may continue, at least at the start today.
On the political front, expect lots of voices from New Delhi as the UPA-Left panel on the Indo-US nuke deal meets today. Both sides may try and hammer out some compromise formula, as nobody wants an early election. The market may benefit if the outcome of the meet is definite. Any further uncertainty on this front will hit market sentiment. One will have to see which way the dice rolls. As far as global markets are concerned, there hasn't been any major fall, though the undertone remains precarious amid fresh worries over the financial sector and near-record crude oil prices.
Coming back to our market, banking, realty and auto stocks will bear the brunt of the selling pressure. Others like capital goods, construction and consumer-centric sectors may also decline. This doesn't mean stocks in the rest of the sectors will be any better off. Overall, we expect a gap-down opening. However, things may stabilise a wee bit as FIIs weren't big sellers yesterday and globally things are not that bad.
Much of the action today will be seen in the F&O segment, where most indicators are pointing to further weakness. For the Nifty, 4200 was seen as a big support. But, that has been broken. Most traders are net short. With F&O expiry tomorrow, Fed announcement (nothing much is expected) later today, and the UPA-Left meet, the bulls have their task cut out. Expect high volatility as has been the case in the last two days.

The Indian Market is expected to have negative opening on the back of weak global cues, political uncertainty and rates hike by RBI. Tuesday, the Indian market closed in red for the fifth straight trading day backed by selling across the ground. The BSE Sensex fall below the 14,000 mark for the first time since late August 2007
Investors will have eye on the crucial meeting of the members of UPA with left scheduled today to decide on the fate of proposed deal between the Congress party and the U.S. President. Left parties had threatened to withdraw support if the government went ahead with the deal.
RBI on Tuesday raised its key lending rate and the CRR by 50 basis points each to tame inflation that hit a 13-year high early in June. As a second increase this month in its repo rate, the RBI raised the key lending rate to 8.5% from 8.0% with immediate effect. RBI will raise the cash reserve ratio to 8.75% from 8.25% in two stages, to 8.5% from July 5 and to 8.75% from July 19. These hikes will have adverse implications for the manufacturing sector, which have impact of high interest rates.
Today's Pick - Chambal Fertilisers
We recommend a sell in Chambal Fertilisers & Chemicals from a short-term perspective. From the charts to the stock we note that it had been on a medium-term uptrend from its March 2008 low of Rs 41, till it encountered resistance at Rs 94 in mid June.
The reversal from Rs 94 level has been supported by negative divergence in the daily moving-average convergence and divergence (MACD).
Recently, the stock penetrated the 21-day moving average and the medium-term up trendline, signalling bearishness. The daily MACD has displayed negative divergence and is indicating a sell.
The other daily momentum indicators are declining in the neutral region towards the bearish zone. Our short-term forecast for the stock is negative. We anticipate the stock’s down move to continue until it hits our price target of Rs 66 in the upcoming trading sessions. Traders with short-term perspective can sell the stock while maintaining stop-loss at Rs 79
For the time being there is no fear of the unknown. The RBI has done what he can and we haven’t seen the last of hikes as yet. Just the other day the RBI governor Dr. Reddy had hinted at a "calibrated" approach to control inflation.In what seems to be a desperate political move to reign in inflation, the RBI has hiked both the repo rate and the CRR by half a percentage points each. We hear that a section of the market was perhaps aware of something like this in the offing. That explains the sharp fall yesterday in the last half an hour. The bloodbath may continue, at least at the start today.
On the political front, expect lots of voices from New Delhi as the UPA-Left panel on the Indo-US nuke deal meets today. Both sides may try and hammer out some compromise formula, as nobody wants an early election. The market may benefit if the outcome of the meet is definite. Any further uncertainty on this front will hit market sentiment. One will have to see which way the dice rolls. As far as global markets are concerned, there hasn't been any major fall, though the undertone remains precarious amid fresh worries over the financial sector and near-record crude oil prices.
Coming back to our market, banking, realty and auto stocks will bear the brunt of the selling pressure. Others like capital goods, construction and consumer-centric sectors may also decline. This doesn't mean stocks in the rest of the sectors will be any better off. Overall, we expect a gap-down opening. However, things may stabilise a wee bit as FIIs weren't big sellers yesterday and globally things are not that bad.
Much of the action today will be seen in the F&O segment, where most indicators are pointing to further weakness. For the Nifty, 4200 was seen as a big support. But, that has been broken. Most traders are net short. With F&O expiry tomorrow, Fed announcement (nothing much is expected) later today, and the UPA-Left meet, the bulls have their task cut out. Expect high volatility as has been the case in the last two days. In these turbulent and uncertain times, like we mentioned yesterday pick up the better counters available at rates you once asked for!.

SELL ONGC IN TRUCK LOADS N HOLD
Nifty at a support of 4212 and 4156 with resistance at 4325 and 4390 levels.
After a partial rebound from lower levels yesterday, we expect some bounce today. Barring European markets, which tumbled on bad set of economic data, most global markets ended flat to slightly negative. We see a cautious to perhaps a slightly higher opening in our market. Though a short-squeeze we predicted yesterday didn't fully materialise, the F&O segment did see some short covering. The Nifty June futures closed with a slight premium as against a discount of a few points. The open interest too declined substantially.
These factors point to short covering by the bears. More can be expected over the next couple days ahead of Thursday's settlement day. We will also have the outcome of the Fed meeting, where the US central bank is likely to keep rates steady while stressing on containing inflation.
On the political front, there hasn't been any significant new development, though some reports suggest that the UPA and Left may agree to some comprise formula to avoid early polls. A truce between the Congress and the red brigade could come as a welcome breather.
On the whole, the bulls may well have a good day in office after a four-day drubbing during which the Sensex has lost some 1,400 points. Much will hinge on global markets and F&O trends.
FIIs were net sellers of Rs6.66bn (provisional) in the cash segment on Monday while the local institutions poured in Rs917.5mn. In the F&O segment, foreign funds were net sellers of Rs1.66bn.
On Friday, FIIs were net sellers of Rs9.53bn in the cash segment. With this, they have pulled out almost $5.9bn from the Indian market this year.

Today's Pick -Tata Chemicals
We recommend a sell in a Tata Chemicals from a short-term perspective. It is evident from the charts that it was on a medium-term uptrend between March 2008 and May 2008 (from a low of Rs 255 to a high of Rs 440). However, the stock reversed direction and started experiencing selling pressure, after touching an all-time high of Rs 440. We notice a head and shoulders pattern (a top reversal pattern), spanning the last two months with neckline at Rs 333. On June 23, the stock breached this neckline and tumbled 6 per cent. The daily relative strength index has entered the bearish zone. The daily moving average convergence and divergence has entered the negative region too. We are bearish on the stock in the short-term. We expect the stock’s decline to prolong until it hits our price target of Rs 290 in the approaching trading sessions. Traders with short-term perspective can sell the stock while maintaining stop-loss at Rs 341

Gap down for sure BUT Squeeze…handle with care!
Today, Nifty has support at 4,234 and resistance at 4,419 and BSE Sensex has support at 14,218 and resistance at 14,801
The outcome of this week's Federal Reserve meet and that of the UPA-Left panel on the nuke deal will have some bearing on the sentiment.
Today, we expect another gap-down opening. The current situation warrants extreme caution. Any advance (dare we say) is likely to be driven by short-covering as fresh buying is negligible. FIIs continue to be heavy sellers even as local funds are continuing their shopping spree. The market will remain under pressure unless crude oil (and local inflation) cools off sharply and FIIs turn net buyers.
The Indian Market is expected to have negative opening on the back of weak global cues as the US market closed in red and Asian markets are trading weak. On Friday, the Indian market closed with heavy losses pressurized by selling across the ground. It was a hard day for the domestic market as it hanged around extremely negative zone after positive start. It had shown negative attitude through out the trading session. Nuke Deal and inflation worries also caused distress for the market as political uncertainty occurred after CPM threatened the UPA to withdraw its support if government moves forward with the deal. Inflation figure released on Friday reached to 13 years high to 11.05% for the week ended 7 June 2008. From the sectoral front, metal and oil & gas stocks were most unfavorable as most of selling was seen in these baskets

BUY RANBAXY IN TRAIN LOADS AND TIMELY BOOK PROFIT
For more please subscribe ...............
We expect the market to open on a weak note and the trend may not change for most part of the day, unless there is some fresh short covering. The market will have to keep one eye on New Delhi and the other eye on global markets. Quite a strain for the eyes and the market!
FIIs were net sellers of Rs4.35bn (provisional) in the cash segment on Wednesday while the local institutions poured in Rs1.94bn. In the F&O segment, foreign funds were net sellers of Rs1.93bn.
The institutions remain sluggish to buy at lower levels and that more or less explains the continued tension on the bourses. After a two-day rally (any small gain is a rally these days), the key indices gave up some of the gains. Renewed weakness in global markets and fresh tension between the Government and the Left parties over the Indo-US nuclear deal played spoilsport. The sudden rise in political temperature in New Delhi could do some more harm today amid worries over the fate of the Congress-led UPA regime. Given the uncertain political environment, the bulls may like to tread cautiously. Also, global markets fell sharply overnight while Asian markets too are in the red this morning. Crude oil continues to be highly volatile, keeping global markets on the edge.
Today's Pick - Bank of Baroda
Picks - SUJANA TOWER,GSS AMERICA, BURNPUR CEM
We recommend a sell on Bank of Baroda from a short-term perspective. From the charts of Bank of Baroda, we note that the stock has been on an intermediate-term downtrend, since its January 2008 high of Rs 501, forming lower peaks and lower troughs.
However, after touching 2008 low of Rs 211 on June 9, the stock witnessed a corrective up-move.
This up-move of the stock did not sustain, as the stock encountered twin resistances (a key resistance level and down trendline) at about Rs 260.
On June 18, the stock declined and formed a dark cloud candlestick pattern that indicates bearishness. The weekly momentum indicator is featuring in the bearish zone and the daily momentum indicator is likely to re-enter this zone.
With the intermediate-term down trendline still intact, we are bearish on the stock in the short-term. We expect the stock to decline until it hits our price target of Rs 218 in the upcoming trading sessions. Traders with short-term perspective can sell the stock, while maintaining stop-loss at Rs 258.

A rocket won't fly unless somebody lights the fuse.
Today, we expect another cautious to slightly positive start,
Nifty (4653) Sup 4580 Res 4695
Seeing buying in Ashok , Suzlon in dips
The bulls may have regained some lost ground with bears covering their shorts in the last couple of days. Global markets too have largely held up quite well and oil prices have retreated a bit. Lack of fresh bad news coupled with buying by local institutions have kept the bears on the defensive in the last two days. FIIs turned net buyers in the cash segment yesterday on a provisional basis. However, it remains to be seen whether the current momentum can be sustained, as the bulls still lack conviction.
Mutual funds may be sitting on a huge pile of cash, but the market needs FIIs to turn net buyers in a big way. In short the FIIs have to light the fuse to ignite positive action in the Indian bourses.

Today's Pick - Allcargo Logistics
We recommend investors buy the stock of Allcargo Global Logistics with a short-term perspective. From the charts, we see that it has been on a long-term downtrend from its January 2007 peak of Rs 1,355 to its June 2008 low of Rs 620.
However, the stock found support at around Rs 640 for the second time (a key support level) recently and commenced an up move. At around Rs 700, the stock crossed over the 21-day moving average, showing signs of bullishness.
Recently, the stock penetrated the 50-day moving average as well as the long-term down trendline. The daily relative strength index is featuring in the bullish zone and the weekly RSI is rising towards this zone. The moving average convergence and divergence is on the brink of entering positive territory.
We are bullish on the stock in the short-term. We expect the stock’s current up move to prolong until it hits our price target of Rs 895 in the approaching trading sessions. Traders with a short-term perspective can buy the stock while maintaining stop-loss at Rs 750

The bulls may have regained some lost ground with bears covering their shorts in the last couple of days. Global markets too have largely held up quite well and oil prices have retreated a bit. Lack of fresh bad news coupled with buying by local institutions have kept the bears on the defensive in the last two days. FIIs turned net buyers in the cash segment yesterday on a provisional basis. However, it remains to be seen whether the current momentum can be sustained, as the bulls still lack conviction.
Mutual funds may be sitting on a huge pile of cash, but the market needs FIIs to turn net buyers in a big way. In short the FIIs have to light the fuse to ignite positive action in the Indian bourses.

The daily relative strength index is featuring in the bullish zone and the weekly RSI is rising towards this zone.

After short squeeze a flat day!
Nifty support at 4515-4430
Resisitance at 4630-4690
For the day, we expect the market to open on a flat to slightly positive note, as the short squeeze may continue
F&O indicators suggest that there may be more upside in the offing. The Nifty futures expiring in June shed more than 20 lakh shares in open interest while the discount slumped from about 30 points to almost nil. With this, the total open interest in Nifty futures has slipped below 4 crore shares. Over the past few months there have been a few instances where the market trend has taken an about turn following this event. It remains to be seen if the bulls are lucky this time round as well.
The advance tax numbers for a few top companies are out and as usual it’s a mixed bag. Banks like ICICI Bank, SBI and HDFC have done well and so has Reliance Industries. Bajaj Auto, Tata Motors and Ambuja Cements have reported lower tax outgo versus the same period last year.

Today's Pick - GSFC
We recommend a buy in Gujarat State Fertilizers & Chemicals from a short-term perspective. It is clearly visible from the charts of Gujarat State Fertilizers & Chemicals that it had been on an intermediate-term downtrend from its January 2008 high of Rs 370 until it reached its June low of Rs 152.
However, after finding support at around Rs 150 (a significant long-term support level) in the recent times, the stock began to move up. During this upmove, the stock conclusively penetrated the intermediate-term down trendline and its 21-day moving average.
There is also an increase in trading volumes over the past two trading sessions.
We believe that the stock will continue to move higher in the short-term. The daily Relative Strength index is rising towards the bullish zone. We notice a crossover in the daily moving average convergence and divergence and it is rising in line with the stock price, indicating bullishness. Our short-term forecast for the stock is bullish. We expect the stock to move upwards until it hits our price target of Rs 200 in the forthcoming trading sessions. Traders with short-term perspective can buy the stock while maintaining stop-loss at Rs 167.

Main support at 4350 -4270
Buy Tcs in dips for 2-3 days
The IIP numbers come out today , they can change market scenario
Overall we think market will be down, but do not expect a crash or a carnage in the street.,Recovery is possible
THE SO CALLED DEAD CAT BOUNCE SEEMS TO BE OVER - IN A SPAN OF ONE & A HALF TRADING DAYS NIFTY RECOVERED FROM THE LOW OF 4370 TO 4540, A SOLID 170 POINT RISE.
SIMILARLY SENSEX MADE UP ABOUT 581 POINTS FROM TUESDAYS LOW OF 14645 TO WEDNESDAYS HIGH OF 15226.
WITH CRR HIKE BY RBI COMING AFTER MARKET HOURS ON WEDNESDAY, BE SURE TO SEE A BIG GAP DOWN OPEN IN MARKETS LIKE EARLIER CASES OF CRR HIKES OF 2006 & 2007. SO EXPECT ABOUT 2 TO 2.5% GAP DOWN OPEN FOR INDICES.
FIIS HEAVY SELLING IN EQUITIES CONTINUED ON TUESDAY & WEDNESDAY & THEY WILL BE FIRST ONES TO LIQUIDATE POSITIONS ON THURSDAY IRRESPECTIVE OF CONDITION OF DOW & OTHER ASIAN MARKETS.
In details
A hike in repo rate – a short term interest rates, by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) after trading hours on Wednesday, 11 June 2008, and an overnight setback in US stocks are likely to take their toll on the bourses today. The market, however, had factored in a rise in interest rates with bank and realty stocks witnessing a sharp fall over the fast few days. Banks are likely to raise interest following a strong signal from RBI that interest rates in the economy are headed north. Higher interest rates will raise borrowing costs and hit bottom line of corporates.
US stocks sank on Wednesday, 11 June 2008, with all the three indices viz. the Dow Jones Industrial Average, S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite index - losing around 2%, after oil prices shot back near their record high, stoking fears about inflation and its toll on consumers. More signs of trouble in the financial sector further soured the mood on Wall Street. The Financial Times said on Wednesday that Lehman Brothers may look to raise more capital, hammering shares of the investment bank.
Oil futures jumped almost $7 to an intraday high above $138 a barrel on Wednesday, and settled at $136.38 a barrel on that day.
A surge in global commodity prices led by crude oil spooked stocks across the globe in the past few days. In India, foreign funds have pressed heavy sales. FIIs sold shares worth a net Rs 5170 crore in the first few days of this month, till 10 June 2008. They had dumped stocks worth a net Rs 5011.50 crore in May 2008. Their outflow in calendar 2008 reached Rs 20539.40 crore, till 10 June 2008. There has been heavy buying by domestic funds led by insurance firms in the past few days, but that has failed to stop the slide on the bourses.
A near term trigger for the market will be corporate advance tax payments for the first installment which falls due on 15 June 2008. The income tax law requires a company to 15% the estimated tax liability for the year as advance tax in the first installment. The advance tax payment by the corporate sector will give a cue on Q1 June 2008 results.
The market will also be keeping a watch on the industrial production numbers for April 2008, which the government will unveil today, 12 June 2008, which will give a cue on the extent of slowdown in the Indian economy caused by high interest rates.

Market will be Volatile throughout the Day
Still, It's Not Advisable to Take Any Fresh Long Position.
However, Trader Can Trade, with Little Qty
On Upper - Side It Can Try to Hit 4510 - 4535
Support : 4390 - 4330
we may see some bounce back after yesterday's carnage. Stick to the defensive sectors like IT (given circumstance it is defensive for time being), Pharma and FMCG and stay away from the risky ones like Real Estate, Infrastructure and Capital Goods. Of course you can argue that the beaten down ones will recover fastest. But we are worried it may take longer. So be on the defensive.
Also, small- and mid-cap stocks could be risky, especially now. On the other hand, quite a few large caps have fallen to attractive levels. Long-term buying can be considered in these stocks.

BUY IN DIPS FOR SHORT TERM
Dont be late to subscribe...............
Level to watch on sensex 15250
Maybe this is the dip one should buy at - however, since we cannot confirm whether this is a long term bear or short term bear market - one could just nibble selectively and not buy huge lots.
Today, we see a gap-down opening, but do not rule out a slight rebound later in the day if global indices reverse the weak trend. Short covering could be the only other factor which could lessen the damage. Some key markets in Asia are actually shut today for holidays, which may be of some help to the bulls. Get in with an investment view. Should you be able to pocket some gains in the brief reversals, no harm in booking some quick profits. The undertone remains precarious and fragile.
FIIs were net buyers of Rs766.5mn (provisional) in the cash segment on Friday while the local institutions poured in Rs4bn. In the F&O segment, foreign funds were net buyers at Rs3.05bn. On Thursday, FIIs were net sellers of Rs14.19bn in the cash segment. With this, they have pulled out a net of US$4.6bn (Rs186.6bn) from the Indian market this year so far. Mutual Funds were net buyers of Rs5.47bn.
Gokaldas Exports and Inox will announce their results today.
Today's Pick - JSW Steel
We recommend a sell in JSW Steel from a short-term perspective. The stock has been on a medium-term uptrend from its April low of Rs 490 levels.
However, the stock encountered resistance at Rs 1,200 recently and began to decline forming a bearish engulfing candlestick pattern in the daily chart. This reversal has been supported by the negative divergence in the daily Relative Strength Index (RSI). The RSI has entered the neutral region from the bullish zone.
A crossover in the daily moving average convergence and divergence indicates a sell signal. The stock is currently testing the medium-term up trendline around Rs 1,085 level.
Considering the above factors, we are bearish on the stock in the short-term. We expect the stock to penetrate the uptrendline and decline until it hits our price target of Rs 980 in the approaching trading sessions. Traders with short-term perspective can sell the stock while keeping the stop-loss at Rs 1,138 level.

Level to watch on sensex 15250
Maybe this is the dip one should buy at - however, since we cannot confirm whether this is a long term bear or short term bear market - one could just nibble selectively and not buy huge lots.
Today, we see a gap-down opening, but do not rule out a slight rebound later in the day if global indices reverse the weak trend. Short covering could be the only other factor which could lessen the damage. Some key markets in Asia are actually shut today for holidays, which may be of some help to the bulls. Get in with an investment view. Should you be able to pocket some gains in the brief reversals, no harm in booking some quick profits. The undertone remains precarious and fragile.
FIIs were net buyers of Rs766.5mn (provisional) in the cash segment on Friday while the local institutions poured in Rs4bn. In the F&O segment, foreign funds were net buyers at Rs3.05bn. On Thursday, FIIs were net sellers of Rs14.19bn in the cash segment. With this, they have pulled out a net of US$4.6bn (Rs186.6bn) from the Indian market this year so far. Mutual Funds were net buyers of Rs5.47bn.
Gokaldas Exports and Inox will announce their results today.
Today's Pick - JSW Steel
We recommend a sell in JSW Steel from a short-term perspective. The stock has been on a medium-term uptrend from its April low of Rs 490 levels.
However, the stock encountered resistance at Rs 1,200 recently and began to decline forming a bearish engulfing candlestick pattern in the daily chart. This reversal has been supported by the negative divergence in the daily Relative Strength Index (RSI). The RSI has entered the neutral region from the bullish zone.
A crossover in the daily moving average convergence and divergence indicates a sell signal. The stock is currently testing the medium-term up trendline around Rs 1,085 level.
Considering the above factors, we are bearish on the stock in the short-term. We expect the stock to penetrate the uptrendline and decline until it hits our price target of Rs 980 in the approaching trading sessions. Traders with short-term perspective can sell the stock while keeping the stop-loss at Rs 1,138 level.

Expect Dead Cat Bounce
FRIENDS, CONTINUOUS SELLING BY FIIS FOLLOWED BY NERVOUS RETAIL INVESTORS MAKE NIFTY BREACH THE CRITICAL 4633 LEVELS AND CLOSED BELOW IT. AT PRESENT INDICES LOOK HIGHLY OVER SOLD, AND ANY TIME A GOOD BOUNCE CAN BE EXPECTED, BUT ANY BOUNCE MAY MEET WITH HEAVY SHORT SELL & FRESH SELLING PRESSURE BY FIIS WHO ARE CONTINUOUS SELLING IN OPEN MARKET. -VE DOW FUTURES DURING THE AFTERNOON SESSION AND HIGHLY -VE EUROPEAN BOURSES ADDED FUEL IN LAST 1 HOUR MARKET FALL; ANY SMALL BOUNCE IS A POINT OF HEAVY FRESH SELLING (BASKET SELLING). NOT GO LONG BELOW NIFTY 4840 !! CHANCES – 1. 60% CHANCES R THAT WE TEST NIFTY 4448 (DT. 22/01/08) 2. 20% CHANCES R THAT WE SEE BOTTOM AT NIFTY 4200 3. 20% CHANCES R THAT WE NOT BREACH NIFTY 4503, AS LOW OF 18/03/08
A minor pull-back is not ruled out. But, any rally should be looked at a chance to lighten positions.
FIIs were net sellers to the tune of Rs11.99bn (provisional) in the cash segment yesterday while the local institutions poured in Rs4.2bn. In the F&O segment, foreign funds were net buyers at Rs3.35bn. On Tuesday, FIIs were net sellers of Rs9.52bn in the cash segment. Mutual Funds were net buyers of Rs1.24bn.
Fortis Healthcare and HOV Services will announce their results today.
After correcting sharply in yesterday's trades, the market is likely to witness sideways movement. However, on the other hand, the undertone still looks bearish on the back of strong selling by the FIIs. For the Nifty, the key resistance level is at 4635 and has a likely support at 4540 on the downside. The Sensex has a likely support at 15300 and resistance at 15700.
As usual, the Left parties, and the BJP slammed the Government's decision. Even the RJD, very much part of the Congress coalition, has called for a rollback. If the political temperature continues to mount, there could be a small reversal in the fuel price hike.
Coming to the markets, the much-awaited announcements didn't cut much ice with the investors. Even the shares of OMCs gave up most of their gains by the end of the day. Though the price hike and other measures will provide some relief to OMCs, they will still be in considerable pain. What's more, the fiscal situation is also likely to worsen. Inflation is soon expected to hit double-digits. Companies in sectors like Auto, Aviation, Cement and Steel will be hit the most. Banks will also be affected as higher inflation will lead to more monetary tightening.
To add to the macro-economic woes, we have the fresh concerns over the global front. There are talks that Lehman Brothers could report losses and will have to raise fresh capital to stay afloat. Two of the biggest US bond insurers may have their ratings cut by Moody's. Though oil prices have cooled off substantially from US$135 per barrel, they are still quite high. The US economy may have avoided a recession (only technically though), but it's not going to gallop either. Also, Federal Reserve chief Ben Bernanke has hinted that the central bank may not increase rates any further.
Given the slew of negative factors, we expect the market to remain under pressure in the near-term. There are more chances of it falling than rallying from here. Technical and F&O indicators too are negative. FII selling has accelerated in the past few days. So, the bulls appear to be cornered from all fronts.
