Meanwhile, Nifty realty rose by 1.62 per cent at 1,101.25.
Commenting on the market outlook, Shrikant Chouhan, Head Equity Research, Kotak Securities, said, “For day traders, 23,400/77,000 will be the immediate resistance level. As long as the market is trading below the same, the correction trend is likely to continue. Below the same, the market may slip towards 23,100-23,025/76,100-76,000. On the other side, after 23,400/77,000 breakout, the index can rise to 23,500-23,520/77,300-77,400. Contra traders can take long bets around 23,025/76,000 with a strict stop loss of 22,900.”
Dr. V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Financial Services, stated, “A strong pillar of support for this bull market has been the mutual fund industry which is witnessing sustained inflows. The ₹34,697 crore net inflows into equity funds in May, and monthly SIP inflows, touching ₹20,904 in May, indicate that this domestic support to the market, will continue despite the FII selling. FIIs turning buyers during the last two days, and covering their shorts, will support the market in the near-term.”
