Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Financial Services Market recovered from the initial disruption after a clear victory for government in Gujarat and Himachal Pradesh state election. Increased investors sentiment will attract liquidity in the market while participants focused on the fulcrum of improvement in fundamentals to strengthen the valuation. Triggers like earnings season and global market movement will be closely watched for any earnings upgrade and US tax reform for the direction. Market breadth The breadth, indicating the overall health of the market, was positive. On the BSE, 1,437 shares rose and 1,209 shares declined. A total of 178 shares were unchanged. Broader markets The S&P BSE Midcap index ended at record high level, up 0.7% to 17104, while the S&P BSE Smallcap index settled at 18252.68, up 0.4%. Jayant Manglik, President, Retail Distribution, Religare Securities It was an eventful day as Nifty witnessed a swing of nearly 400-odd points in early trade and finally settled with gains of over half a percent. Initially, markets reacted sharply on negative side, citing unexpected lead by the Congress in Gujarat election, but not for long. The situation completely reversed in next few minutes as BJP took over Congress in both the states and progressed towards comfortable win. However, volatility remained high on stock-specific front, keeping the uneasiness intact. Nifty has again reached closer to its record high, clearly indicates that bulls are in control. Participants will now be at ease as there's no major event ahead and global cues will take over. We suggest keeping stock-specific trading approach with bias on the positive side.
