The Nifty recently went through a five-week phase that many mistook for distribution, but it turned out to be a period of healthy consolidation. This helped build a higher base, and once the index crossed the 25,200 mark, momentum accelerated further. At present, there are no visible signs of the market topping out. Shah believes the Nifty could move towards the 26,200 level before a fresh review, and advises investors to stay bullish and not overthink the next 10–12 days.
Markets have already weathered considerable stress, both locally and globally. The broader market experienced a bear phase between October and March, with stocks declining an average of 36–37%. Coming out of that phase, along with signs of economic improvement and positive commentary from corporate India, Shah expects earnings to improve further. Additionally, recent measures by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) could act as a tailwind, making significant disappointment during earnings season unlikely.
The financial sector has been the key driver of the current rally. Banks, NBFCs, insurance, and housing finance companies are all performing well. According to Shah, these segments offer attractive valuations, have strong fundamentals, and are technically well-positioned. With visible earnings growth and signs of smart money flowing in, this sector is expected to lead the market for the next three to six months.
Gautam Shah highlights that the outperformers of the last three years are no longer leading the charge. Instead, new themes are emerging. Metals, particularly non-ferrous stocks, are technically poised for gains of 15–30%. Real estate, closely linked to India’s growth story, also looks attractive, with top names offering good risk-reward setups. Additionally, PSU stocks, especially PSU banks, remain undervalued—even with the Nifty at 25,500—and offer compelling opportunities.
