Stock Market LIVE Updates: 'Fundamentally strong fairly valued stocks will outperform'

Stock Market LIVE Updates: "Two strong factors have been at play in this consolidating market. One, the relentless selling by FIIs has been favouring the bears and pulling the market down. Two, the sustained buying by DIIs has been supporting the market preventing a crash in the market. 

How the market will trend in the coming days will depend on the relative strength of these two factors. In this context, it is important to note that the intensity of FII selling is coming down (yesterday FII selling was Rs 2,026 crores) and the inflows into mutual funds is steadily increasing which will enable DIIs to continue buying. 

Monthly flows into equity mutual funds have touched an all-time high of Rs 41,887 crores in October clocking a 22 per cent month-on-month increase. This can provide resilience to the market and fundamentally strong fairly valued stocks like the leading banking names will outperform."
