WEEKLY MARKET OUTLOOK FOR MAY 29 THRU JUN 02, 2017

WEEKLY MARKET OUTLOOK FOR MAY 29 THRU JUN 02, 2017
In our previous weekly note, we had expected this week to remain dominated with rollover centric activities. There were accumulated shorts in the Markets and it had a stronger-than-expected effect on the Markets. The benchmark NIFTY50 which was net negative for the week, turned the tables down, and ended this week with net gains of 167.20 points or 1.77% on weekly basis. Though the Markets remain strong, the coming week will some momentum tapering off and taking some breather. The art would lie in picking stock specific action to extract gains as Markets may take some breather without losing any significant ground.

The Markets are in uncharted territory once again and the levels of 9620 and 9735 may pose potential resistance. Supports come in lower at 9605 and 9530 zones.

The Relative Strength Index – RSI on the Weekly Chart is 75.8654. Though it trades in overbought zone, it has marked a fresh 14-period high and it is bullish. The Weekly MACD trades above its signal line and it is bullish as well.

The Pattern analysis shows the Inverted Head & Shoulder pattern that developed on the Weekly Charts remain perfectly in place. The Markets have successfully broken out of that pattern and has continued it’s up move without showing any significant retracement.

Overall, the Markets are overbought on Weekly Charts. However, being overbought is no reason to sell and on the contrary, it exhibits underlying strength in the Markets. We may see Markets remaining range bound for some time moving sideways in a defined trajectory with minor declines but in any sense, it is all likely to keep its primary trend intact.

A study of Relative Rotation Graphs – RRG show that REALTY stock will continue to outperform but may slow down so far as momentum is concerned. We will continue to see outperformance from NIFTYJR, PSUBANKS. Select INFRA Stock will be seen getting stronger. PHARMA has suddenly lost momentum and it is not likely to make any meaningful gateway this week. AUTO will continue to outperform. METAL stocks too seem to be preparing for some long term up move. IT is likely to take some breather after the recent pullback but that too, just like METALS is consolidating its space. No outperformance is expected from MEDIA and ENERGY stock.

Important Note: RRG™ charts show you the relative strength and momentum for a group of stocks. In the above Chart, they show relative performance as against NIFTY Index and should not be used directly as buy or sell signals.

MARKET OUTLOOK FOR FRIDAY, MAY 26, 2017

MARKET OUTLOOK FOR FRIDAY, MAY 26, 2017
In our Thursday’s note, we had mentioned about the existence of short positions. The benchmark NIFTY50 saw a huge relief rally primarily fuelled by short covering and supported by some fresh buying as well as the NIFTY50 ended the day with strong gains of 149.20 points or 1.59%. The zone of 9380-9420 has once again re-established itself as a strong intermediate support zone. Though we expect a quiet start tomorrow, we will now see Markets consolidating once again near the rising trend line as a clean breakout is yet to take place.

The levels of 9525 and 9580 will act as immediate resistance levels while supports will come in at 9470 and 9430 zones.

The Relative Strength Index – RSI on the Daily Chart is 63.2407 and remains neutral showing no divergence against the price. The Daily MACD still remain bearish while it trades below its signal line. A big white candle occurred. The importance of the formation is that this big candle has occurred near the support zone. This has re-established the credibility of the support zones of 9380-9420.

The pattern analysis shows the Markets bouncing back from the support zone of 9380-9420 and again resisting to the rising trend line drawn from 9200 levels. The rising nature of the trend line is helping NIFTY form fresh highs but it is still keeping it away from  achieving clean breakout.

All and all, despite Thursday pullback, a clear breakout is yet to be achieved. Until the NIFTY achieves such breakout, it remains prone to consolidation once again. We reiterate avoiding shorts at any higher levels and contrary to this, utilize the consolidation, if any, to make select purchases.
