Analysts attribute today’s rise to Adani-GQG’s $1.87 billion deal. “The US-based investment firm GQG partners investing Rs 15,446 crores in four Adani stocks might influence the market positively. This money is mainly to be used for retiring debt, which means that the banks that had funded Adani companies will not face any stress. This is positive news for Bank Nifty,” said V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services.
“Bank nifty has support at 40661-40381 while resistance is placed at 41081-41222 range,” said Om Mehra, Equity Research Analyst, Choice Broking. “This week should witness a strong recovery up to 41300 to 41500 if Bank Nifty is able to hold onto 40700 in the next few days,” said Ameya Ranadive, CMT, CFTe, Equity Research Analyst Choice broking. “We can anticipate a short covering move in Bank Nifty in the direction of the 41500-42000 region,” said Santosh Meena, Head of Research, Swastika Investmart Ltd.
