After The Bell: Manic Monday for markets, what should investors do on Tuesday?
We have collated views of experts on what investors should do when the market resumes trading on Tuesday, 4 August:
Expert: Vikas Jain, Senior Research Analyst at Reliance Securities
Bandhan Bank: Buy | Target: 360
The stock has reversed sharply from its 200-Days Moving Average and has witnessed a sharp correction on Monday due to a large block deal. On the downside, it has good support in the range of Rs 275-280 levels being the 100-day average and 50 percent retracement of (152-400) levels.
One should use the correction to buy at current levels and on declines at lower levels for a higher target of Rs 360 levels over the next few months.
UPL: Book Profits | Avoid Fresh Longs
The stock has failed to cross its 200-Days Moving Average at Rs 380 and corrected sharply post results capping the upside from current levels.
Its Relative Strength Index has reversed from the higher side on daily charts and we expect to break down witnessing a sell signal.
Tata Motors: Hold | Target: 120
The stock has broken out from its narrow range and closed at 8 weeks high with strong volumes.
We believe the current up move will extend to test the intermediate high of Rs 120 levels its last month high. On crossover, it will try to test the 200-day average placed at Rs 129.
