What should investors do?

In the coming week, investors will closely monitor domestic CPI data for July, which is projected to show a significant increase due to rising food prices.

In the upcoming week, the focus will be on the release of US and Indian manufacturing PMI data and the Fed Chair’s speech.

“The undercurrent of market is positive, with no major risk visible for the domestic market in the short term. All eyes will be on the union budget proposals which will dictate the market in the medium term,” said Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Financial Services.

“We expect this positive momentum to continue at a steady pace with stock-specific action. However, the release of economic data points next week would keep a little volatility in the market. Sector like Auto is expected to be in the limelight as OEMs would release their monthly auto Sales number,” said Siddhartha Khemka, Senior Group VP, Head – Research, Broking & Distribution, Motilal Oswal Financial.

Having moved up sharply, technically Nifty is currently facing hurdles at the resistance of 24000-24100 levels.

“Any dip from here is likely to be a buying opportunity. Immediate support is at 23800 levels,” said Nagaraj Shetti of HDFC Securities.
