The market is going through a time correction, said Kunal Saraogi, CEO of market research firm Equityrush. “The Nifty is likely to spend some more time in this 200-point range [which is] between 9,550 and 9,750,” he told BloombergQuint by phone.
Saraogi said investors will be focused more on commentary coming out of the FOMC meet, rather than on interest rate decision. “A 25-basis point rate hike has been factored in,” he said.
In terms of investment idea, Saraogi picks midcap private sector banks over their larger peers. He also like some of the monsoon related themes. “The tyre stocks look good right now,” he said. Moreover, he advised investors to stay away from the pharma stocks despite some of them making a comeback.
