Outlook for 21 August, 2008:-

  • Market has been like a rocking chair for the last 2 days. There have been ups and downs but ultimately it is at the same place i.e. around 4380-4410. Volumes too have dropped and trading activity is drying.

  • Indices moved up yesterday after 5 down sessions. The bounce may still continue but the FII selling is not stopping and low volumes are not able to absorb it.

  • Nifty may face resistance at 4530 levels. Crude has come down from 147 to nearly $110/barrel but there has not been any rally because of this so far. There are market-talks like NSG approving the Nuke deal but all good news seem to be discounted in the prices. One would rather wait for further action. Sometimes not having a position is also a position in the market.
