How are benchmark stock indices placed on technical parameters now? How much downside could be expected? Is this the start of a bearish trend     
The trend is negative currently. Seeing targets is difficult but the Nifty could fall till 5850-5900 or lower. Nifty has support at every 50 point drop.          
            
Would you suggest new investors to enter market now given cheap valuation in frontline stocks?
No, i would rather want them to wait for the trend to exhaust itself.     
                 
What stocks would you recommend to investors to buck the impact of QE tapering?                    
IT and maybe pharma should do well if the rupee dips.
