Market Update

•Nifty has broken down below the 5700-6200 range after testing 5700 a few times in the past. Also in doing so it has created a new lower bottom and thus has given a Sell signal as per Dow Theory.
•FIIs continue to sell.
•Irony is Western, European and Asian Indices all continue to be in uptrends so the global scenario is positive. Dow Jones has support at 11000, S&P at 1230, FTSE at 5800, Nasadaq at 2650, Dollar index in downtrend…resistance at 81.5 and 83.5
•We are near the 200 DMA which is a zone where there is massive fight between bulls and the bears to decide the next direction. So it is choppy and expected to be choppy for the next few weeks
•For long term investors it is best to be on the sidelines till we get some direction for the market.
•Bank Nifty is now clearly making lower tops and lower bottoms. Every rally is being sold into and is a great shorting opportunity for traders.
•IT Index continues to show the highest relative strength
•Realty continues to remain very bearish

Strong counters in the current market – HCl Tech, Sun Pharma, TCS, Hindalco

Agri Commodities bullish







Most Agri commodities are bullish currently. Wheat, Refined Soyabean Oil, mentha oil, pepper, castor seed. Investors should use Commodities as a means of diversification. Those troubled with the volatility of the Nifty would be happy to see the 50-60% returns that most commodities have given in the last 18 months. In India there are three main categories of commodities - Metals, Agricultural and Energies which are traded on the MCX and NCDEX. HNIs have increasingly started using commodities as part of their asset allocation to get superior risk adjusted returns.
