'Market euphoria may extend till Jan-Feb'

The sentiment on D-street is bullish. A dip of a couple of per cent would be a good opportunity for traders and investors to enter. The euphoria in the market is likely to continue. It may extend till January-February 2022. Though the volatility is likely to witness an uptick.  I believe the stocks ranking higher in terms of outperformance will continue to shine. But traders and investors need to keep in mind the margin of safety in these stocks because their support levels are very deep.

VIEW: Intermittent volatility likely but positive momentum to continue

Equity market today had a historical day with Sensex touching 60,000 for the first time driven by large caps with many index heavyweights touching new highs. The rally in domestic market is driven by positive global cues, strong inflows by FIIs/DIIs, good corporate earnings, falling Covid-19 cases, upbeat corporate commentaries and low cost of capital. Amid the buoyant sentiment and increased activity, valuations has reached elevated levels and demand consistent delivery on earnings expectations. Given rich valuations, one cannot ignore intermittent volatility – however we expect the positive momentum to continue on the back of improving economic activity and recovery in corporate earnings.
