Global Markets:-

US Markets crashed on Friday after analysts boosted estimates for losses at banks and speculation increased that rising unemployment and lower manufacturing are pushing economy into recession. The Dow Jones closed down by 315 points. Satyam, Patni and Infosys were major losers from among Indian ADRs.

Outlook for Monday:-

· Indices to open lower on bad global sentiment and Sensex can test lower levels around 17000-17100 in early trade.

· Nifty has support at 5020-5050. If we close comfortably below 5020, it will be quite difficult to recover fast and we may test 4600 levels. A phase of consolidation can start which can last for 3 months at least.

· We have to see how foreign investors take this budget. Many reforms were suggested in the economic survey to take GDP growth towards double-digit but didn’t come through in the actual budget.

· If we recover from early losses, Nifty will have to cross 5250 to show strength. Pharmaceutical stocks like Biocon, Aurobindo, Dr Reddy, Ranbaxy can be picked in that case.

· Tata Motors can be bought for long term investment after excise cut on small cars. The acquisition of Jaguar should go through in months to come. Suzlon looks good for investment and one should accumulate this stock.
