Global Markets:-

American stocks rose in final 30 minutes as speculation bond insurer Ambac Financial Group Inc. may be rescued overcame concern bank earnings will falter. ICICI Bank ADR fell 4%.

Outlook for Monday:-

· Sensex wasn’t able to close above 18500 last week and has corrected well towards 17200 levels. Now we are near the support level of 17100-17200 and some bounce-back can happen as long as we are above these levels.

· Nifty has support at 5085 and can rally up to 5240-5260 levels on the bounce. Below 5085, psychological support at 5000 can be tested.

· Though a rally is probable on the back of positive US markets and RPower bonus announcement, one need not hurry for buying. An investor will earn in the long run, but short-term is still not so rosy. Any gap-down at this point of time will be very bad for the bulls and panic up to 4800 will be seen in that case.

· Ranbaxy (410):- Buy around 395-399. The stock can target 430-434 levels. Keep SL of 387.
