Breakout stocks to buy or sell: Following the uncertainty surrounding global trade developments, the Indian stock market witnessed selective profit-booking and finished flat on Thursday.

Among sectors, the IT index outperformed on the previous session, rallying over 2%. This could become possible due to US President Donald Trump’s more conciliatory tone on the H-1 B visas.

Speaking on the outlook of the Indian stock market, Sumeet Bagadia said, “The Indian stock market sentiment is cautiously positive despite strong profit-booking on Thursday. The Nifty 50 index finished below 26,000 after a profit-booking trigger around the 26,300 levels. The 50-stock index has crucial support placed at 25,750. Therefore, one should adopt a stock-specific approach and examine those stocks that appear strong based on their technical chart patterns. One can look at breakout stocks as well.”
