Sumeet Bagadia’s stock recommendations
Sumeet Bagadia, Executive Director at Choice Broking, expects the Nifty 50 to extend gains to touch 25,600 and 26,000.
“The Indian stock market sentiment has turned positive as the Nifty 50 index has breached above 25,000 decisively. Once the benchmark index breaks above Friday’s high decisively, we can expect the 50-stock index to touch 25,600 and 26,000 respectively,” said Bagadia.
This week, market participants will focus on the consumer price index (CPI) inflation data and the index of industrial production (IIP) data to get fresh cues about the health of the Indian economy.
The progress of the monsoon and sowing patterns will also be on the radar of market participants.
