Top Stock Picks For Diwali And Samvat 2077: Brokerages
Here’s a list of top Diwali stock picks by leading brokerages.
Samvat 2076 was volatile for equities as the coronavirus pandemic disrupted the world economy.
Indian benchmarks joined their global peers in the worst selloff in more than a decade, tumbling 40% from the peak in January to their March-low, after the nation imposed one of the world’s harshest lockdowns. But they have since erased losses.
The Nifty 50 has risen 9.56% so far in Samvat 2076. The Nifty Midcap 100 and Nifty Smallcap 100 indices have gained 12.47% and 7.07%, respectively, during the period. The Nifty 500 is up 9.67%.
The mood turned upbeat after fiscal and monetary stimulus announced by the government and central bank. A faster-than-expected pickup in economic activities on easing lockdown curbs and the reports around a potential Covid-19 vaccine lifted the sentiment further.
The optimism will spill into the new Samvat 2077 as analysts bet on surplus liquidity in the market, a rebound in high-frequency indicators and encouraging demand environment.
