India Stock Market predictions for 8 February 2011

Yesterday: Yesterday was a choppy market with all experts divided on which direction will go. The trade today is also expected to on same lines. There is too much uncertainty.  Don’t get into hefty long positions for today.

Prediction: Unpredictable trade and to be safe Future contracts for March can be purchased to hedge the equity investments. Hold your mid caps and mutual funds, it is the worst time to offload them.  Stay away from MFI ,Real estate , Infrastructure at least for now.

Stock to Watch: ICICI  has breached its several lows. It can be a good time to enter the script. Gail is another long term counter showing some short term weakness. It will be good to get inside these scripts at these valuations. SBI looks bit expensive vis-a-vis the hit borne by other banking stocks. Hold on to your mutual funds if they are one of those dividend based schemes. All dividends are expected by March 15.

Bears’ Honey

Inflation , oil breaching the 100$ barrel mark, political instability due to Subramanyam Swamy requested governor nod to prosecute Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Karunanidhi and the new ISRO spectrum scam can be bigger than the whole telecom scam are ruling the minds of investors.

Bulls’ Horns

FII‘s might return to take charge of market just before the budget session.

Tomorrow shall put the report on what happened in market today.

Stock Market Prediction for 1 February 2011

Yesterday: As predicted the day started with across the board fall of 300 points on Sensex, but recovered later. Bharati Airtel reached further lows and is expected to bottom out today.  The technology sector with biggies like Infosys and TCS has corrected by good margins. However the storm is yet to settle post WIPRO and MindTree high profile exec exits.Banking stocks seems to be recovering but it is too soon to be complacent about them. The clouds have not cleared fully

Prediction: A minor upside , no wild movements for today . Selective n across the board fall with OMC bearing a fair degree of brunt owing to pressure on oil supplies. There is no need for widespread panic right now. It can be good opportunity for selective buying in the Banking sector. Hold your mid caps, it is the worst time to offload them.  Stay away from MFI  & Real estate at least for now.

Stock to Watch: RIL, Bharati Airtel( The results for tomorrow & sentiment are expected to be positive riding on the roll out of 3G services in India), Siemens ( Big Bull , rose due to buyback offer but buy date is too far …March End… Stay out but keep watch)

Bears’ Honey

Inflation data and continuous battering of mid caps is a big dampener. RIL after hitting its 52 week lows was  expected to bounce back and spearhead the northbound movement. Crude prices flirting with the 100$ /barrel mark might weaken the old horse ability to lead. Banking stocks might go back into red over NPA provisioning fight b/w RBI and SBI.

Bulls’ Horns

The Egypt clouds have cleared a bit and it would be a while till impasse is resolved. Close on the heels of all other indices recovering from Egypt shock, that factor is not expected to play a major role today. Sensex saw lot of comeback after registering a 300 point fall in the opening hours.  So the positive sentiment are expected to stay.

Tomorrow shall put the report on what happened in market today.
