03No If, No But - We are in a good market
Filed Under (Market Observations) by Deepak Singh on 03-03-2010

Nifty has moved up 4.7% in last 3 days. It is trading above 20 day ma, 50 day ma and 200 day ma. And so - technically, the market looks to be in fine shape. The internals are also looking good and technically strong stocks are breaking out and making new highs. Finding a fault with current market just does not make sense. We have to accept that we are in a bullish healthy market, where one should just focus on technically strong stocks.
Reliance: Road to Nowhere.
Today, Reliance closed up 4.23% and there was lot of excitement…but the fact is Reliance has done nothing since May 2009. The good news - that despite today’s upmove - Reliance can travel some more distance till it hits the major resistance area of 1140.

The chart also indicates that market can stay range bound for a fairly long period of time.
Ranbaxy: Chart reflects confusion
Ranbaxy stock has clocked huge volumes in last 3 days. The newsflow has not been very encouraging yet stock has held on and not sold off as widely anticipated.
The 50 dma may apply resistance to the stock but it seems stock may find buyers at lower levels especially around 422.
Indiabulls Financials = Rising from ashes - up 11% today
IndiaBulls Financials has been a dead stock for market participants. Have a look at the chart below and you will understand why I am making such a statement. But post budget - there has been return of excitement in the counter and it may just beginning of strong up move to 140-150.

The big question: will there be clean follow through move?
Few more Observations
- Real Estate stocks are moving up - but difficult to say whether it is short covering or genuine bargain buying? The service tax confusion may result in choppiness.
- Today, JP Associates shot up 6% to close right at 200 dma of 146. Is bullish conviction returning back in this stock?
- If market has to move up from current levels - stocks like SBI and HDFC have to stand up and be counted.
- Financials are showing strength. Oriental Bank of Commerce made new 52 week high today. Bank of Baroda and PNB is already trading near 52 week high
- One more space that exhibited bullishness today: Power stocks be it Tata power, NTPC, or Torrent Power.
