Sumeet Bagadia’s breakout stock recommendations

Speaking on the outlook of Indian stock market, Bagadia said, “ The key benchmark index is facing hurdle at 25,550. On breaking above this resistance we can expect the 50-stock index to touch 25,700 and 26,200 soon. So, one should maintain stock-specific approach and look at those stocks that are looking strong on the technical chart. Looking at breakout stocks can be a good option.”
