Markets could see major correction of up to 3-5% on Nifty in days

Indian markets continued to retain a buoyant flavor and present technical indicators do not hint at conditions that warrant caution.


The bullish upturn in the markets strengthened with the Nifty breaching the 9,700 mark last week. Fresh momentum was injected in the Indian indices with investors on the sidelines joining the rally and adding fuel to the euphoria.
Indian markets continued to retain a buoyant flavor and present technical indicators do not hint at conditions that warrant caution.
Though present positive fundamentals continue to spur a bull run in the markets, a sense of complacency has set in the system, as seen from the continuing low levels of India VIX.
Taking into account an upsurge in market fundamentals, a target of 10,000 had been envisaged for this leg of the bull trend, a level at which the market completes a large upcycle.
The importance of this number does not stem from the fact that it is a round number but indications from several technical studies like Elliot, Trendline, Pattern, and Fibonacci which allude to the fact that major resistance crops at this level.
As the Nifty has risen from the 7900 mark to 9900 levels without any reasonable correction, it warrants a case from the 10000 mark (+/- 100 points).
If the index performs along expected lines, one can expect a retracement of 3-5 percent with support at 9700 and 9500 levels.
The markets have traversed a bullish trajectory for long and are starting to look stretched from a short-term perspective. In the present situation, as the Nifty scales the five figure mark, it is prudent to take some profits and book out of trading positions.
As there is no justification for risk or reward here, there should be considerations for fresh entry on a reasonable dip. Investors should remain entrenched in the market and not pull out.
Participants with ongoing SIPs should envision a long-term investment picture and not tamper with their investment plans as the lure to book gains may be tempting.
The Metals, Power, Infrastructure, and Auto sectors are expected to outperform in the near term.

Rewards for speculators who ride out unpredictable markets

The previous couple of years have been unstable ones for South African speculators, and a few late shocks to the nearby and worldwide money related frameworks –, for example, the bureau reshuffle, Brexit, Donald Trump's triumph in the United States – have added to the instability. What ought to financial specialists do in times, for example, these? Presently, like never before, speculators need to adhere to their long haul monetary plans and not change out of higher-hazard ventures, for example, values, into more secure ones, for example, money instruments. Financial specialists who change all through ventures in view of how they read the business sectors charge far more terrible, for the most part, than the individuals who stay consistent with their speculation objectives.

Euphoria grips the Street and IPOs – whether reasonably priced or not— get through with ease.  Conversely, primary market frenzy is often seen as harbinger of market peaking. This trend is playing on Dalal Street these days. But retail investors who ignore valuations of IPO in this euphoria often end up getting the wrong end of the stick.  Analyst warn that investor who wish to hold new papers on quality parameters should pay heed to valuations. “Many a times, companies with very high pricing also attract good subscriptions. Remember the Reliance PowerBSE -1.35 % issue in 2008? It did very well, but we all know what happened next. One should always look at valuations before putting money in an IPO. If you find an IPO more than fairly priced or aggressively priced, ignore it and look for opportunities in the secondary market instead. Some of the recent IPOs such as...
