In the week gone by, Nifty has managed to close above 16,200 levels which is the 50-Day exponential moving average for the first time in 52 trading sessions. The pullback rally was not only quantitative but also qualitative in nature, as over 70% of stocks from the Nifty 500 have rebounded above their 20-day simple moving average levels. This broad-based rally indicates improvement in market sentiments.
What should investors do?
Investors should look to buy the dips until 15,950 levels are not breached and should accumulate quality stocks. Traders should focus on stocks and sectors that are relatively outperforming the Nifty. Our preferred large-cap picks are L&T, ICICI Bank,
, and HDFC Bank; on the mid-cap front, stocks like ABFRL, Foods and witnessed strong buying interest at lower levels. We are suggesting a Nifty Bull Call spread by buying 16,250 Calls and selling 16,450 Calls with a premium cost of 72 points and a potential reward of 128 points. Keep a stop loss of 35 points of the premium.
