📈 Investment Ideas
Short-Term (Next 2-4 weeks):
Consider selective entry into leading private banks and financials as the market shows renewed strength.
If Nifty slips toward ~25,050, watch for a buying opportunity, with 25,600+ as the target if momentum sustains.
Maintain tight stops — global risk (trade/commodity) remains a threat.
Long-Term (12–24 months):
The structural India story continues: consumption growth, banking credit expansion, infrastructure/cap-goods on the rise.
Focus on quality banks, strong consumer franchises, and companies with global export relevance.
Use market dips as accumulation opportunities rather than near-term breakouts.
Stock of the Day:
ICICI –With a strong showing today (+ ~1.03%), participation in the up-move suggests it’s worth a tactical buy for short-term, and a strategic accumulate for long-term, given its relative strength in the financials space.
✅ Closing Thought
Today’s strong rebound after two weak sessions signals that the market is willing to regain its footing — supported by domestic flows and positive global cues.
The focus now is whether momentum can sustain about 25,450 on Nifty. If yes, the next leg toward ~25,600+ becomes possible.
If global risk resurfaces, 25,000-level remains key support.
Stay selective, size wisely, and keep risk controls in place.
