Market experts said that Fundamentals, technicals and sentiments turning favourable at the same time are rare in the market. This is what has happened now.
“The market went into the big event, like elections. Nifty corrected around 600 points from the May highs. Profit booking also happened on a large scale. The short position in the market also is high,” they added.
