Nykaa, HDFC, Zee Media, Jet Airways, Power Grid, Berger Paints, Petronet LNG stocks in focus

Nifty futures tumbled over half a per cent or 108.50 points to 17,971.50 on Singaporean Exchange, suggesting a sell-off in BSE Sensex and Nifty 50 on Wednesday. Investors will closely watch the Paytm IPO, which closes for subscription today, and the listing of Nykaa IPO shares. Moreover, Latent View Analytics, a data analytics firm, will be open for public subscription today. Technical analysts say that the Nifty is now placed above the important moving average support of 10day and 20day EMA around 17970 levels. Unless this moving average support is violated decisively on the downside, there is a possibility of upmove in the market. “The market seems to be reluctant to pick up the upside momentum and stuck at the hurdle of around 18100 levels. Eventually, the market could break above this hurdle in the short term and move towards the next resistance of 18350 levels in the near term,” said Subash Gangadharan, Senior Technical and Derivative Analyst, HDFC Securities.
