Benchmark indices rose in early deals today. Sensex gained 78 pts to 65,524 and Nifty added 22 pts to 19,421
VK Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services said, “An important trend in the market is the surge in retail investor participation as indicated by the sharp increase in new demat accounts (2.36 million) opened in June. New retail investors jumping on to the market band wagon normally happens at the peak of a rally. This is a sign of caution. The FPI liquidity driven rally is showing signs of losing steam. Stay invested in high quality large-caps. Wait for the Q1 results for direction.”
