In the latest market analysis, experts have identified Manappuram Finance and Apollo Micro Systems as promising stocks for potential gains of up to 8%. This recommendation comes amid a consolidating market index, which has been fluctuating between 23,400 and 23,800 in recent days.
Rupak De, Senior Technical Analyst at LKP Securities, noted that the index's inability to reclaim the 20EMA has kept market sentiment weak. He emphasized that a decisive move above 23,800 could trigger a strong rally, while a fall below 23,400 might induce panic.
Manappuram Finance has broken out above the Rs 318–320 resistance zone, indicating a continuation of its uptrend. The stock is trading above all major EMAs, with an RSI near 65, suggesting sustained buying strength. Analysts recommend buying at Rs 319.15 with a stop loss at Rs 308 and targeting Rs 345 to Rs 355.
“Overall, sentiment remains weak, and this weakness may continue in the short term as long as the index stays below 23,800.”
