Yesterday, Nifty opened in the green and extended its gains as the day wore on, hitting a new all-time high. However, last hour selling pushed Nifty about 50 points off highs. Overall, volume was higher compared with the previous session. On the sectoral front, Nifty Auto, IT, and PSU Bank closed ~2% higher. Nifty Financial Services, Pharma, Realty, and FMCG closed almost flat.

With leadership broadening and indices above relevant intermediate-term moving averages, we will continue to look for leadership-quality growth names to form entry points. If a pullback/consolidation happens, it will be crucial for Nifty to hold its 21-DMA. It is advised to closely review the existing positions and book profits in stocks that are extended from their moving averages and showing technical weakness. Also, tracking distribution days is crucial as rising in distribution days can halt the uptrend.
