For the outlook on the Nifty 50 and the Bank Nifty index, Vaishali Parekh said, “Nifty just managed to close above the 25,000 zone with bias maintained positive and the overall sentiment has much improved anticipating for further rise in the coming days.”
“We expect the index to carry on with the positive move for the next near-term target of 25,600 level with frontline stocks like L&T, Infosys, ICICI Bank and Maruti Suzuki indicating positive bias and can help to pull the index to new heights,” said the stock market expert.
“Bank Nifty now moving past the 51,000 zone has improved the bias and with a gradual rise is slowly and steadily strengthening the trend expecting for further upward move with targets of 52,500 and 53,400 levels anticipated with significant 50-EMA (Exponential Moving Average) zone of 50,800 level maintained as the immediate near-term support,” said Parekh.
