Markets opened on a positive note and continued to move up in a slow and steady manner and finally spot Nifty closed 57 points higher at 5520. Market breadth was relatively strong as advances on NSE were an impressive at 943 as against 487 declines. Among the frontline stocks Infosys Technologies led the market from the front and it got support from other stocks like Tata Motors, HDFC Bank and Bajaj Auto. Tech Mahindra was the surprise winner as it closed at Rs.743 ( went up by Rs.65). With the political stalemate between DMK and Congress getting resolved, a little bit of more short covering will be expected tomorrow. Rising crude oil prices still continue to remain a worry as Libya crisis is still to be resolved. The 200 DMA lies at 5660 and the best case scenario for the bulls would be a rally till this level. The journey to this level is however not expected to be smooth as higher levels would definitely see intense selling . Crude is the biggest worry for the market and market movements will hence be extremely volatile and choppy till this issue gets resolved.
The best strategy in the current scenario would be to adopt a trading approach in frontline stocks and investment in midcap and smallcap stocks postponed till the 200 DMA is decisively crosses. One should stay in cash and there is no hurry to invest into the market. Short term preferably intraday trading is what one should follow.
