Pre Market Commentary ..
Today we expect a flat opening due to indecisive global cues. The Dow Jones has closed below 10,000. Stocks in Europe finished higher. Asia is pretty much mixed.
We now have statistical evidence to substantiate that the green shoots in India have blossomed further. Apart from the subdued credit growth and tepid tax receipts (partly owing to fiscal stimulus) most other economic indicators have improved substantially.
The ball is now in the Finance Minister’s court. In that context, Feb. 26 will be a crucial day. Pranab Mukherjee is likely to take a calibrated approach to unwinding the fiscal stimulus. He has his task cut out on the fiscal front. So, we expect him to articulate strategy to return to the path of fiscal prudence. Any deviation from this will be disappointing.
Derivative indicators are pointing to further weakness. Technically, 4700 could give near-term support to the Nifty while resistance might kick in at 4800. The 200 DMA of 4640 will continue to be a crucial level to watch.

Pre Market Commentary ...
Today,brace for a gap-down opening as world markets are in a tizzy amid escalating concerns over the mounting debt problems in a few European nations. Whether the market manages to rebound remains to be seen as FIIs don’t seem to be in a mood to reverse their selling binge, at least for now.
Yesterday only we had warned against getting carried away with Wednesday’s rally. Unfortunately for the bulls, that prediction turned out to be a prophetic one. For those who heeded our advice though might have done better than most. Risk aversion has risen of late amid a spate of fresh worries from China’s tightening, to new restrictions for US banks to sovereign debt concerns in Europe.
For India, the big concern remains in the form of inflation and its ramifications on the stimulus-fueled recovery. The big event for India will be the Union Budget. Expectations are already building up. The Finance Minister has its task cut out with a yawning fiscal deficit staring him in the face. The 3G auction fiasco coupled with the lukewarm response to the NTPC FPO are only adding to his troubles. Some key support levels could melt amid the world-wide crash. Nifty futures trading in Singapore are down over 2% as of now. The Nifty could find support at 4740-4750. If there is no improvement in Asian markets, it could even fall below 4700. If the market rebounds, which could be either today or next week, the Nifty is likely to meet resistance at around 4900.
