Sensex, Nifty end higher

Shrikant Chouhan, Head Equity Research, Kotak Securities, commented that the benchmark indices continued positive momentum second day in a row.
“We are of the view that the index has completed one leg of pullback rally and now 50 day SMA or 22300/73500 would act as key resistance areas for the bulls. For traders, above 22300/73500 the next hurdle would be 22400-22425/73800-74000. On the flip side, fresh selloff possible only after dismissal of 22100/72800 below which, the index could retest the level of 22050-22000/72600-72400,” Chouhan added.
Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Financial Services, said, “The domestic market has sustained its recovery path from recent lows, aided by moderation in India’s CPI and favourable signals from its Asian peers. Volatility and range-bound trading are likely to persist in the near term, given the ongoing uncertainty surrounding the low turnout.”
