Market view by Dr. V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Financial Services.
An interesting feature of yesterday’s 158 point rally in the Nifty is that the up move happened despite the FII sell number at Rs 3228 crores being higher than the DII buy number of Rs 1401 crores. The implication of this change in trend, despite the persistence of FII selling, is that the retail investors are back in buying mode.
