Sensex, Nifty hit all-time high: Five factors behind the rally

11. 46 AM: Market outlook

Sameet Chavan, Chief Analyst-Technical and Derivatives, Angel Broking said," Despite some challenging times, we remained hopeful at the start of the week as long as the key support of 11600-11500 is not violated. Market not only defended it but is very much at a comfortable position now with new record highs in sight. Technically, we can see a 'Bullish Flag' breakout happening along with a 'Breakaway Gap' on a daily chart. It is considered a strong development and hence, we are likely to move beyond previous highs soon. So, 12430.50 is the first level to watch and post then the theoretical target of the 'Flag' pattern is around 12700. Further levels can be projected as we move forward. On the flip side, Thursday's gap area of 12027.20- 11929.65 should act as a strong support. This rally can be considered a healthy one because almost all sectors have contributed to it and financial space has dominated it along with the late participation from the broader market."

Jyoti Roy- DVP- Equity Strategist, Angel Broking said,"Reliance Industries stock has been very volatile in the recent past with the stock cracking below the Rs. 2,000 mark post the Q2 numbers which were a mixed bag. While the Petchem division surprised positively with better margins the refining division posted a very muted set of numbers for the quarter with GRM of USD 5.7 as compared to street expectations of  above USD 6 /bbl. The retail and digital arm posted numbers which were in line with expectations. While overall the numbers were in line with street estimates the internals were on the weaker side. Post the Q2 numbers Reliance shares hit a low of Rs. 1835."

"However the stock reversed and rallied post announcement that The Public Investment Fund ("PIF") will invest Rs 9,555 crore in Reliance Retail Ventures Limited ("RRVL") for a 2.04% stake in the company. This investment values Reliance Retail at a pre-money equity value of Rs 4.587 lakh crore. The value ascribed by PIF to reliance Retail is higher than the value ascribed by earlier investors of Rs. 4.285 lakh crore.  This is the second investment by PIF into RIL group with the first being an acquisition of a 2.32% stake in Jio Platforms. While the stock has rallied post announcement of investment by PIF we believe that further up move from here on will depend upon further investments into Reliance retail along with developments on the company's plan to attract investments into the O2C business. markets will also be keeping a keen eye on progress of the Jio Mart platform."
