Stock picks of the day

August 07, 2008 08:56 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 positive territory. Consumer Durables, Oil, Capital Goods, Banks, FMCG, Auto & IT have ended positive in varying degrees while Healthcare, IT, Psu, Realty & Metals have ended in negative territory. Volume registered a noticeable increase (read as turnover) while the undertone seemed confused.

Sensex

Last Close - 15073.54 | Support - 15037, 14732 | Resistance - 15330, 15638

Trading Range - The Sensex opened at 15263.65, moved up to an intra-day high of 15422.82, declined to an intra-day low of 15035.60 and closed at 15073.54.

Review/Outlook - The Sensex has had a mixed trading session, has had a positive opening, has moved both ways, has faced selling pressure at higher levels, has come off from its intra - day high and has finally ended in positive territory on higher volume. Volatility can be the order of the day; initial weakness could be followed by an intra-day upside (seems like a possibility) which could come in above the 15074 level while significant resistance at higher levels (15300) - would limit the upside. The outlook has turned positive again while resistance comes in at the 15300+ level and support comes in at the 12780 level.
