Stock picks for August 27

Hemen Kapadia/ Morpheus Inc | August 26, 2003 20:35 IST

The market has staged a stunning comeback to end sharply in positive territory.

Banks, capital goods, consumer durables, pharma, IT, FMCG and PSUs all ended with gains of varying degrees.

Volume registered a decrease (read as turnover) while the undertone was euphoric.

Sensex --Last Close: 4152.29 | Support: 4028, 3895 | Resistance: 4166, 4322

Trading Range -- The Sensex opened at 4021.91, moved up to an intra-day high of 4160.02, declined to an intra-day low of 4021.91 and closed at 4152.29.

Review/Outlook -- The Sensex has once again posted a new high (a 29 month high) while the intermediate uptrend is very much back on track with the scintillating recovery. It has been a broad based rally across sectors while a further upside seems like a distinct possibility.

Polaris Software --Last Close: 124.45 | Support: 117, 080 | Resistance: 145, 163

Trading Range -- The scrip opened at 113.00, moved up to an intra-day high of 125.90, declined to an intra-day low of 112.40 and closed at 124.45.

Review/Outlook -- The scrip has reflected strength by giving an upward breakout from a consolidation phase and with the indicators looking strong, a further upside seems to be on the cards.

BASF --Last Close: 139.00 | Support: 124, 108 | Resistance: 146, 180

Trading Range -- The scrip opened at 132.00, moved up to an intra-day high of 140.00, declined to an intra-day low of 132.00 and closed at 139.00.

Trading Range -- The scrip opened at 131.80, moved up to an intra-day high of 145.00, declined to an intra-day low of 131.80 and closed at 144.35.

Review/Outlook -- The scrip has reflected strength by posting a 126-month high and with the oscillators looking positive, further appreciation seems to be on the cards.

Trading Range -- The scrip opened at 277.90, moved up to an intra-day high of 293.00, declined to an intra-day low of 276.00 and closed at 291.55.
