Sumeet Bagadia’s stocks to buy today
Sumeet Bagadia, Executive Director at Choice Broking, believes that the overall sentiment of the Indian stock market is cautious as the Nifty 50 index is trading in the 24,900 to 25,300 range. The Choice Broking expert said that bullish or bearish sentiment can be assumed on the breakage of either side of this range. However, the Bank Nifty is looking positive after reaching above the 51,200 mark on a closing basis. Sumeet Bagadia said that the Q2FY25 results season has begun, and the market would react to the quarterly numbers of the listed entity. He advised a stock-specific approach focusing on the breakout stocks for intraday trading.
On the outlook of the Indian stock market today, Sumeet Bagadia said, “Banking stocks are expected to attract fresh buyers as the Nifty Bank Index has closed above 51,200. However, overall sentiment on Dalal Street is expected to remain cautious as the Nifty 50 index is trading range-bound in a tight 24,900 to 25,300 range. So, a bullish or bearish trend can be assumed on the breakage of this range on a decisive basis. Until then, I suggest a stock-specific approach focusing on breakout stocks.”
