Sumeet Bagadia’s stock recommendations
Sumeet Bagadia, Executive Director at Choice Broking, believes overall Indian stock market bias is positive. The Nifty 50 index faces a hurdle in the 25,400 to 25,450 range. The Choice Broking expert said the 50-stock index may touch the 25,900 mark once the frontline index breaches this resistance. Bagadia noted that an aggressive US Fed rate cut by 50 bps is also expected to fuel bulls’ sentiment and suggested a stock-specific approach for intraday trading. He said breakout stocks can be a good option for those considering a stock-specific approach.
Regarding breakout stocks to buy today, Sumeet Bagadia recommended buying these five shares: Crest Ventures, BSE, Menon Bearings, Graphite India, and Torrent Power.
Speaking on the outlook for the Indian stock market, Sumeet Bagadia said, “The Indian stock market bias is positive, and the Nifty 50 index may touch 25,900 or maybe 26,000 once it breaches above its immediate resistance placed at 25,400 to 25,450 range. So, maintaining a stock-specific approach with a special focus on breakout stocks can be a good option for intraday trading.”
