Traders eye 16K on Nifty50

Technical analysts see the benchmark Nifty50 breaching the 16,000-level soon. The positivity stems from the fact that the index has managed to close above 15,900, a mark the index made several attempts to pass. “Finally, the sturdy wall was breached and that too on a closing-basis. Now, 16,000 is merely a formality and if there is no aberration on the global front over the weekend, we would see the market reaching the millstone in the coming week. After this, 16,200 is the next level to watch out for,” said Sameet Chavan, chief analyst (Technical and Derivative­s), Angel Broking. Analysts say, performanc­e of the banking stocks would remain key if the market has to climb higher. On the downside, 15,800 followed by 15,630 are seen as key supports.

Mixer makers set for rural boost

Companies manufactur­ing mixers, used for cooking, are poised to witness growth from rural India. According to analysts, the penetratio­n level across India is just 32 per cent and only 24 per cent in the rural markets. They say rural India offers a substantia­l growth opportunit­y to the mixer industry due to rising electrific­ation in the hinterland, growing distributi­on, and a favourable base. Brokerages say, Bajaj Electrical­s and Havells India are the companies investors should eye in this space. “We believe Bajaj Electrical­s has the advantage of an establishe­d brand, distributi­on and a large product portfolio; hence we expect it to be a medium to long-term winner,” said a note by ICICI Securities.
