Closing Bell! Eternal to IndusInd Bank - Prashanth Tapse suggests 3 stocks to buy in the short term
Stock market today: Indian benchmark indices dipped on Friday, as declines in information technology stocks, influenced by renewed uncertainty regarding US tariffs, overshadowed the optimism ahead of domestic growth data set to be released later in the day.
The Nifty 50 fell by 0.34% to 24,743.45 at 15:02 IST, while the Sensex decreased by 0.27% to 81,391.38. IT firms, which obtain a significant portion of their revenue from the United States, declined by 1% after an appeals court temporarily reinstated the most extensive tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump.
On the technical front, Prashanth Tapse of Mehta Equities believes that if Nifty 50 moves above 25,000 with good momentum, we could witness gains in the upcoming trading sessions. Tapse has recommended buying the below three stocks in the short term.
Nifty 50 continues to look positive after closing above the 24,800 level. The index has strong support at 24,700, and as long as this holds, the uptrend is likely to continue. On the upside, 24,900 and 25,000 are important resistance levels. If Nifty 50 moves above 25,000 with good momentum, we may see further gains in the coming sessions.
Resistance: 24,900 – 25,000
Bank Nifty is moving sideways but shows slight bullishness. It has a solid support level near 55,000. On the higher side, 55,550 and 55,875 are key resistance levels. A close above 55,875 could start a fresh upward move, but until then, the index may stay in a range with buying opportunities on dips.
Resistance: 55,550 – 55,875
Prashanth Tapse recommends buying these three stocks in the short term - Eternal Ltd, Central Depository Services Ltd (CDSL), and IndusInd Bank Ltd.
Eternal share price has been consolidating in a narrow range and has now shown signs of a breakout above ₹ 230, indicating a potential short-term rally. The RSI (14) is rising, reflecting increasing bullish momentum, while the MACD is about to trigger a positive crossover, supporting the upward trend. The price action suggests accumulation at lower levels, and any dip towards ₹ 225–228 should attract buying interest.
A move above ₹ 235 can lead to a swift rally toward ₹ 250. The risk-reward remains favourable with a stop loss placed at ₹ 222. Overall sentiment and technicals support a near-term bullish outlook.
CDSL share price has shown strong price strength after rebounding from support at ₹ 1,490, backed by a noticeable rise in volumes. The breakout above ₹ 1,530 indicates bullish continuation. RSI (14) at 64 reflects positive momentum, while MACD crossover confirms the ongoing uptrend.
As a key player in the booming depository and fintech space, CDSL stands to benefit from rising investor participation. The technical structure points toward a potential move to ₹ 1,650 in the short term. Any intraday dip toward ₹ 1,520–1,530 can offer a buying opportunity. Maintain a stop loss at ₹ 1,495 for risk management.
IndusInd Bank share price has bounced back smartly from the ₹ 795 support zone, indicating strong buying interest at lower levels. The stock has reclaimed its short-term moving averages and is showing signs of bullish reversal. RSI (14) has crossed 60, and MACD has turned positive, both suggesting further upside.
With Bank Nifty trending higher, IndusInd is well-placed to participate in the rally. The next hurdle lies around ₹ 835, above which a move toward ₹ 870 appears likely. Strong fundamentals, improved asset quality, and positive sentiment in the sector support this view. Keep a stop loss at ₹ 795 to limit downside risk.

Remove Ads How did the White House react to the acronym parodies? Could these acronyms be considered as mere jokes or do they serve as meaningful indicators? Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads FAQs Wall Street is more than just numbers and financial jargon; apparently, it's also got jokes. During President Donald Trump's second term, traders are transforming his slogan-heavy style into meme-worthy "TACO" to "FAFO," these acronym parodies are popping up on trading desks and in market chatter. Although they are often amusing, these memes reflect serious investor concerns regarding changing policies and economic risks during Trump's second observers have taken advantage of President Trump's habit of shortening slogans into acronyms like MAGA, DOGE, and MAHA, and they have been circulating among trading desks for the past four months of his second abbreviations devoid of a trading strategy capture elements that traders claim are crucial in Trump-era markets, like volatility and uncertainty, which investors should take into account when making strategies that benefited from Trump's trade, economic, and international relations policies are linked to some of the new labels. Others discuss his economic ramifications or abrupt reversals in response to his proposals from trade partners and to Potomac River Capital LLC 's chief investment officer Mark Spindel, the market is stuck in a "pinball machine as a result of Trump's policymaking process."In an email, White House spokesperson Kush Desai said that these ridiculous acronyms demonstrate how uncritical analysts have ridiculed President Trump and his agenda, which has already produced a number of inflation and employment reports that exceeded expectations, as quoted in a report by the following acronyms have gained popularity in the investment community, as per a report by Reuters:A Financial Times columnist came up with the term "TACO" (Trump Always Chickens Out), which has been used to characterize Trump's back and forth on tariffs following his "Liberation Day" speech on April 2.

Online shopping for MEGA hats, which mimic their MAGA counterparts, is simple. Due to the outperformance of European stocks immediately following Trump's "Liberation Day" tariff bombshell, traders and investors have given it new America Go Away (MAGA): Although the original Trump trade was also referred to as the MAGA trade, this version adopted the president's motto. It initially surfaced in reaction to Vice President JD Vance's short-lived and unsuccessful trip to Greenland, a Danish autonomous territory that Trump has indicated he would like to annex. The joke is circulating among trading desks in Toronto and Montreal, according to at least one Canadian investor, and it is causing "wishful thinking" about merely boycotting U.S. (Fuck Around and Find Out) is an acronym that was coined long before Trump was elected president, but it is becoming more and more common in trading desk discourse. It is employed to record the chaos and volatility of the financial markets brought about by Trump's policymaking process."YOLO (You Only Live Once) seemed to encourage outsized risks in concentrated investment themes," Art Hogan, a strategist at B. Riley Wealth, stated after the tendency that was a part of that Trump trade to pursue high-momentum strategies, like cryptocurrency, is referred to by the acronym YOLO. "While the term YOLO was popular for a period of time, it contradicts all conventional advice," Art Hogan stands for "Trump Always Chickens Out,' it mocks Trump's inconsistency on key issues such as tariffs, implying that he frequently backs down from bold use them to mock the chaos, volatility, and mixed signals in Trump-era markets. They're entertaining, but they also address legitimate investor concerns.
