**Market Watch: What to Expect on Monday**
As we head into a new trading week, all eyes are on the earnings reports from some of India’s biggest players. Anand James of Geojit Financial Services shares his insights on what to expect from Monday’s market action.
**Earnings in Focus: RIL, HDFC Bank, and ICICI Bank**
The performance of Reliance Industries (RIL), HDFC Bank, and ICICI Bank will be crucial in determining the market’s direction on Monday. These heavyweights have the potential to influence the overall sentiment, making their earnings reports a must-watch.
**Nifty Breaches 50-DMA: What’s Next?**
The Nifty has breached its 50-day moving average (DMA), a key technical indicator. While this could be a cause for concern, Anand James believes a sharp fall is unlikely. Instead, the market may consolidate and look for direction from the earnings reports.
**Bank Nifty: A Bounce on the Cards?**
The Bank Nifty, which has been under pressure lately, may attempt a bounce back on Monday. ICICI Bank and Kotak Mahindra Bank could lead the charge, providing a much-needed boost to the sector.
**Stability from Reliance, Pressure on Defence Stocks**
Reliance Industries, with its diversified business portfolio, could lend stability to the market. On the other hand, defence stocks continue to face pressure, and investors may need to exercise caution in this space.
**Trading Opportunities: Patanjali, GMDC, and Max Estates**
For traders, Anand James identifies Patanjali, GMDC, and Max Estates as potential opportunities. These stocks have shown promise and could be worth keeping an eye on in the coming sessions.
