Stock picks of the day

May 07, 2008 09:52 IST

The market has remained in a mixed state of mind, has come off its intra-day high and has finally ended the day in negative territory. Banks, Consumer Durables, Oil, Auto, Capital Goods, Healthcare, PSU & Realty have ended negative in varying degrees while FMCG, IT & Metal have ended in positive territory. Volume registered a noticeable increase (read as turnover) while the undertone seemed subdued.

Sensex

Last Close - 17373.01 | Support - 17292, 16964 | Resistance - 17494, 17711

Trading Range - The Sensex opened at 17441.41, moved up to an intra-day high of 17502.15, declined to an intra-day low of 17237.68 and closed at 17373.01.

Review/Outlook - The Sensex has had a mixed trading session, has had a negative opening, has moved both ways, has faced selling pressure even at lower levels, has come off from its intra - day high and has finally ended in negative territory on higher volume. Volatility can be the order of the day; an intra-day upside (seems like a possibility) could come in above the 17391 level while significant resistance at higher levels (17480) - would limit the upside. The outlook has turned positive again while resistance comes in at the 18300+ level and support comes in at the 16600 level.
