Technical Overview – Nifty 50

Another day, yet another benchmark index all-time high. The index had a gap at the beginning of the session and closed near the day low before stabilizing. The index closed above the upper band of the rising channel. Volumes of the index’s component parts appear to be trailing the momentum.

The momentum indicator RSI (14) has closed above the 72 level and continues to rise, confirming the upward trend of the benchmark index. The upward trend should continue because the MACD is rising and above its polarity on a daily basis. 

Over the past three sessions, the benchmark index’s equity breadth below the 200-day moving average (200SMA) decreased from 90% to 86%. 

Based on benchmark index OI data, a base formation may take place at the 24,300 level, where put writing is almost 30 lakhs contract. At 24,400, or almost 23 lakhs, the call writing contract’s value, resistance might arise. The PCR value of the benchmark index is 1.07. 

The support and resistance levels for the next sessions are at 24,200 and 24,050 and 24,400 and 24,500, respectively.

Technical Overview – Bank Nifty

The index opened with a gap over 53,550 levels, setting a new record high. The day’s open and high were the same, while the banking index showed a slight profit booking.

Over a 125-minute timeframe, the momentum indicator RSI (14) is displaying a hidden positive divergence. A horizontal resistance has been breached and closed above by the daily time-frame index. The upward trend should continue because the MACD is rising and above its polarity on a daily basis. The index’s position above each major DEMA lends more credence to the overall bullishness.

For the next sessions, the resistance and support levels are 53,500, 53,700 for resistance and 52,800, 52,450 for support.

Stocks in Spotlight

  • Wockhardt shares surged by 5 percent, extending their uptrend for the 12th straight session. With this sharp rally, the stock hit a fresh 52-week high of Rs 995, delivering exuberant gains of nearly 80 percent over the past month. Optimism for the company stems from its research and development prowess as it nears the launch of two blockbuster antibiotics, poised to change the course of the drugmaker’s earnings trajectory.
  • Inox Wind shares skyrocketed over 13 percent after the company announced a Rs 900-crore capital infusion from its promoter, Inox Wind Energy Limited (IWEL). The funds were raised through the sale of Inox Wind equity shares in block deals on stock exchanges, attracting participation from several high-profile investors. In a regulatory filing, Inox Wind stated that IWEL finalized the capital infusion on July 4, marking a significant step towards achieving a debt-free status for IWL. The proceeds from the infusion will be used to reduce Inox Wind’s external term debt, thereby enhancing its financial position and accelerating its growth prospects.
  • Shipping stocks | Shares of shipping firms like Cochin Shipyard and Mazagon Dock surged up to 17 percent. These stocks were among the PSUs experiencing a sharp rally lately, as investors anticipate that Budget 2024 announcements will further boost their performance. Veteran investor Raamdeo Agrawal believes that despite the recent upward movement, PSUs are still trading at single-digit PE multiples. The stocks also gained due to strong Q1 earnings expectations. In its June quarter earnings preview note, Antique Stock Broking indicated that the combined sales of eight defense companies, including Mazagon Dock, Cochin Shipyard, Bharat Dynamics, BEML, Hindustan Aeronautics, Bharat Electronics, PTC Industries, and Garden Reach Shipbuilders & Engineers Ltd, may jump 27 percent YoY.
