Breakout stocks to buy or sell: The Indian stock market ended in gains, following a 25-basis-point rate cut by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) and the central bank's proposal for a ₹1.45 lakh crore liquidity infusion through bond purchases and dollar-rupee swaps boosted domestic market sentiment.
The Sensex rose for the second straight session, closing 447 points higher (0.52%) at 85,712.37. The Nifty 50 also advanced, finishing at 26,186.45 with a gain of 153 points (0.59%). Meanwhile, the BSE Midcap index inched up 0.21%, but the Smallcap index declined by 0.67%.
Sumeet Bagadia's breakout stock recommendations
Sumeet Bagadia, Executive Director at Choice Broking, believes that the Indian stock market sentiment is positive as the Nifty 50 index has surged near to 26,200 levels.
“The key benchmark index is facing hurdle at 26,300. On breaking this hurdle on a closing basis, the 50-stock index may soon touch 26,500 and 26,800. So, one should maintain stock-specific approach and look at those stocks that are looking strong on the technical chart. Looking at breakout stocks can be a good option,” said Bagadia.
