Sumeet Bagadia’s breakout stock recommendations
Sumeet Bagadia, Executive Director at Choice Broking, believes that despite sell-off on the previous session, the Indian stock market sentiment continues to remain cautious to positive as the Nifty 50 index is sustaining above 24,500 support.
Speaking on the outlook of Indian stock market, Bagadia said, “ On the upper side, the 50-stock index is facing hurdle at 50- DEMA levels, which is placed around 24,900. So, in short, the key benchmark index is in a tight 24,500 to 24,950 range. One should maintain stock-specific approach and look at those stocks that are looking strong on the technical chart. Looking at breakout stocks can be a good option.”
