09:15 (IST) 17 Jan 2023 Bulls will be on right footing only above 18,265

“Markets are likely to wobble in early trades Tuesday, tracking mild volatility in SGX Nifty and other Asian peers. Investors may trade with caution due to lack of directional cues from the US markets, which was closed on Monday. The negative takeaway is that Nifty has got off to an uninspiring start in 2023 and has underperformed Wall Street significantly. Nifty is down 1.16% while Dow Jones is up 3.49%. Another negative catalyst which is seen haunting the markets are FIIs relentless selling. Foreign institutional investors this month have sold to the tune of Rs 18,170 crores. The technical landscape can improve and bulls will be on the right footing only above the 18,265 mark.”-Prashanth Tapse – Research Analyst, Senior VP (Research), Mehta Equities

08:58 (IST) 17 Jan 2023 Sustained FII selling has turned near-term structure of the market weak

“The dominant trend impacting the near-term texture of the market is the sustained selling by  FIIs for the eleventh time this month. There is selling even in bluechip names like HDFC Bank, that too, after impressive Q3 results. The simple logic behind sustained FII selling is that India is the only large market where FIIs are still sitting on good profits after the disastrous 2022 performance in most global markets. FIIs are playing it safe by moving money to cheaper markets where there is valuation comfort. The sustained FII selling has turned the near-term structure of the market weak. The best investment strategy in the present weak market would be to systematically buy high quality large-caps in performing sectors like banking, capital goods, telecom and construction-related segments. Soon, India’s strong fundamentals will bring cheer to the market.”- VK Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services

“A long negative candle was formed on the daily charts at the highs, which indicates a counterattack of bulls after the upside bounce of Friday. But, the market is currently moving in a narrow range hence, the predictive value of Monday’s pattern could be less. The short-term trend of Nifty continues to be range bound and the market has shifted into a squeeze type formation of a triangle. Having declined from the upper end of a triangle at 18050-18100 levels on Monday, one may expect further consolidation or upside bounce from the lows in the coming sessions. A decisive move beyond 18100-18150 levels or 17750 levels could confirm breakout in the market on either side,” said Nagaraj Shetti, Technical Research Analyst, HDFC Securities
