The resistance level for the Nifty is at 13,050 and if we can cross that, we could head to 13,200 by next week. A strong support lies at 12,800 and thereafter at 12,500. It is only post the breaking of 12,500 that we would consider a short term correction. Until then, the trend remains bullish with a strong upside momentum.

Markets are likely to consolidate around the current levels in the short run. However, in the medium term, markets are likely to turn increasingly volatile. Valuations are high and therefore upside is limited. Stick to bluechips, particularly in performing sectors like IT and financials. If Sensex moves beyond 45,000, increase cash levels. Invest in mid-small-caps through mutual funds.
