Stock market analyst, Vishwas Agarwal stated, “If institutions feel the pressure due to hike in CRR by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), then the market may see the BSE Sensex falling to 15,950 or even lower levels of 15,750. But a pipeline of major corporate results may not allow panic selling in the market.”

Welcoming the RBI move, Mr. Agarwal stated that the CRR hike was a crucial step to control increasing inflation.

He expects strong recovery in the equities in the near term once the inflation levels get stabilized.

He also stated that the banking, auto and real estate stocks will have an impact because of CRR hike.

The 30-share index Sensex, which closed the week at 15,807.64, on April 11, will experience more ups and downs in the coming week.

Inflation numbers continued to be a sign of worry as it zoomed to three-year high of 7.41 percent for the week ended on March 29. The inflation climbed on the back of growing pressure on RBI to further tighten funds supply in its forthcoming annual credit policy later this month.

The BSE Sensex, on Wednesday, ended after making a gain of 161.37 points at 14,994.83, whereas the broad-based NSE Nifty ended at 4,573.95, up 40.95 points.

The 30-share index Sensex opened on a cheerful note with a positive gap of 492.33 points at 15,325.79 following the interest rate cut by US Federal Reserve.

The index traded sturdily for a short period because of buying activity seen across the frontline stocks.

But, the Sensex broke off from days’ peak by losing all its power. At last, it marked its closure positively. It also touched an intraday high of 15,465.81.

Continued buying interest in key stocks, firm worldwide cues and upbeat results of the companies led the Sensex to achieve a new peak of 19,095.75.

On this technical analyst, Vishwas Agarwal, said, “Ultimately our long awaited 5,678 was acheived today on NSE. Here I will take some rest, but there is a lot of opportunity for traders and also there are options in some stocks.”

Technical analyst, Vishwas Agarwal said the stock market was volatile mainly because of F&O expiry on yesterday, and some profit booking was also seen at upper level.

As projected the market touched - NSE Nifty 4,326 and BSE Sensex 14,900 level, chaired by frontline stocks, said Vishwas Agarwal, technical analyst.
