The Breakout - Day 17
Shall We Test the Previous High....!
"The reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated. "
This is a comment supposed to have made by Mark Twain when someone queried him about some false news about his death.
Similarly, the present uptrend is still on and any news of it's end is also greatly exaggerated. The Nifty futures opened lower in tandem with the Asian markets and later on rallied on Thursday, the expiry day. The current month futures closed at 5260. The next month futures closed at 5277 with a premium of 17 points.
On Thursday, the European and the US markets were trading at new eighteen month highs on the news of a possible IMF backed rescue of the debt ridden Greece and infusion of fresh money by the Dubai government in to Dubai World. Meanwhile, Chairman Ben Bernanke of the US Federal Reserve reiterated that extremely low interest rates will persist for an extended period. All western markets are trading with positive momentum even though the eastern ones are a bit lagging now.
The Nifty futures may test the January, 2010 highs in the coming days. Meanwhile, it is reported that the turnover of the B Group shares have started exceeding the turnover of the bigger and higher capitalised companies in the Bombay stock exchange. Moreover, the advance decline ratio also seems to be a bit lagging the uptrend. These two factors are not very encouraging signs.
