Stock picks of the day

August 13, 2008 09:41 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. Consumer Durables, IT, Psu, Realty, Capital Goods, Healthcare, Metals, Banks & Auto have ended positive in varying degrees while Fmcg & Oil have ended in positive territory. Volume registered a noticeable increase (read as turnover) while the undertone seemed shaky.

Sensex

Last Close - 15212.13 | Support - 15037, 14732 | Resistance - 15330, 15638

Trading Range - The Sensex opened at 15577.20, moved up to an intra-day high of 15579.78, declined to an intra-day low of 15124.91 and closed at 15212.13.

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 negative territory on higher volume. Volatility can be the order of the day; an intra-day downside (seems like a possibility) could come in below the 15212 level while significant support at lower levels (14800) - would limit the downside. The outlook has turned positive again while resistance comes in at the 15900+ level and support comes in at the 12780 level.
