Nifty hits all-time high of 20,000
The Nifty hit an all-time high of 20,000 taking 51 trading sessions to get there after breaching the 19,000 mark on June 28. The move was on account of both local and FPI flows. FPI flows have been constrained in their China investments on account of the dire outlook for its economy. A portion of those flows have come to India. Year to date FPIs have invested $15.9 billion.(Economic Times, Mint, Business Standard, BusinessLine)
Kotak pulls mid- and small-cap recommendations
Kotak Institutional Equites has dropped recommendations on midcaps that it covers as it cannot see too many opportunities for upside beyond the BFSI space. The brokerage has removed its favourite stocks in capital goods, healthcare, QSR and real estate sectors as it says it would be incorrect to recommend stocks with low conviction and potential downside to their fair values.(BusinessLine)
