Stocks to buy
ICICI Prudential Life Insurance Company BUY, CMP: Rs 678.9, TARGET: Rs 715, SL: Rs 665
The stock has underperformed after hitting the all-time high level and thereafter it entered into an accumulation phase near its important support area, finally, a strong reversal candlestick formation indicates resumption of a bullish uptrend in the coming horizon.
Coromandel InternationalBUY, CMP: Rs 827.05, TARGET: Rs 870, SL: Rs 810
Post decline from the levels of 900 the stock went into a range-bound movement where a strong bullish activity is spotted near the multiple support zone. Additionally, the formation of a bullish Marubozu candlestick pattern with a good volume suggests a strong up move in the counter.
Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) BUY, CMP 3833.3, TARGET 4030, SL 3750
After the strong uptrend, the counter took a breather for a few sessions with a gradual down move however recent strong reversal indicates the stock has found support in its demand zone, hence we expect the rising trend to persist from the current levels in the short term.
Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd (HAL)BUY, CMP: Rs 1,375, TARGET: Rs 1,450, SL: Rs 1,345
After hitting the all-time high of 1486 the counter has witnessed a range bound activity for a few sessions however current range breakout with incremental volume along with the formation of strong bullish candlestick pattern indicates that the counter has enough potential for further upside from current levels.
