Stocks to buy or sell: Sagar Doshi of Nuvama recommends REC, Can Fin Homes, Aurobindo Pharma October Futures today

Stock Market News: At the start of trading on Wednesday, both the Sensex and Nifty 50, the domestic benchmark indices, experienced selling pressure, opening with a slight decline.

The Nifty 50 index began at 25,008.55 points, showing a decrease of 48.80 points or 0.19% while the Sensex opened at 81,646 points, down by 173 points or 0.21%.

According to analysts, the ongoing selling by foreign institutional investors is being countered by purchases from domestic investors, potentially leading to the Nifty 50 stabilising around the 25,000 mark.

Chief Investment Strategist, Dr. V K Vijayakumar from Geojit Financial Services pointed out that the ongoing bull run in India has largely been driven by consistent domestic investments, which have offset the selling pressure from foreign institutional investors.

The market will continue to receive support from domestic investments, but the high valuations will limit the potential for further gains. It is expected that the Nifty will hover around the 25000 mark during consolidation. The upcoming Q2 earnings are anticipated to be lackluster, except for the IT, banking, and certain segments of the automotive industry, explained Vijayakumar.

A retest of its previous breakout was observed on charts of CANFINHOME in last week’s trading session. Stock is forming a cup and handle pattern on daily charts after reversing its stance just before hitting the 200 DMA support. Upside momentum is likely to pick up above 900 as the stock further breaks out of a sloping trendline resistance for a 10-12% rally from CMP into new all-time highs.

Aurobindo Pharma October Futures (SELL) : LCP : ₹1,485; Stop Loss : ₹1,525; Target Price : ₹1,382
