Mastek – CMP Rs 2167
The stock falls in the IT category and has a sector tailwind with it. Mastek is on the verge of giving a breakout from Aug ’22 levels of 2200.
A close above 2200 on a daily time frame will open up 2350 and 2600 also in the stock on a larger time frame. The only caveat to this rally will be the upcoming quarterly results.
The whole IT sector is running on the expectation of a rate pause and inflation cooling off in the USA. Anyone holding the stock can ride the trend with a stop loss at 1950 levels and for new entry wait for a small pullback around 2100 zone.JBM Auto – CMP – Rs 1466
