Best stock recommendations today: MarketSmith India's top picks for 9 June
On Friday, the Nifty 50 surged 1.02% to close above 25,000, driven by the RBI's unexpected 50-basis-point repo rate cut and a 100bps CRR reduction, aimed at boosting liquidity and economic growth. This aggressive monetary easing lifted investor sentiment and triggered strong buying, especially in rate-sensitive sectors like realty, financials, autos, and metals. The RBI's shift to a neutral stance further supported the rally, resulting in broad-based market participation. Two stock recommendations for today, 9 June, by MarketSmith India: KEI Industries Ltd (current price: 3747.8) Why it's recommended: Strong market position, diversified revenue streams, strong product portfolio, and innovation Key metrics: P/E: 49.96 | 52-week high: ₹5,039.70 | Volume: ₹158.97 crore Technical analysis: Reclaimed 200 EMA Risk factors: Raw material price fluctuations, competitive pressure Buy at: ₹3,747.8 Target price: ₹4,290 in three months Stop loss: ₹3,490 Also Read: United Spirits is on a high after RCB's IPL win, JP Morgan upgrade and UK FTA. Can it keep buzzing? Bajaj Housing Finance (current price: ₹125.66) Why it's recommended: Strong market position, strong financial performance Key metrics: P/E: 174.44, 52-week high: ₹ 188.50, volume: ₹ 262.89 crore Technical analysis: Reclaimed 100-EMA Risk factors: Interest rate risk, regulatory risks, macro-economic risks Buy at: ₹125.66 Target price: ₹150 in three months Stop loss: ₹115 Nifty 50: How the benchmark index performed on 6 June On Friday, the Nifty 50 opened on a subdued note and witnessed volatility during the initial hour of trade. However, sentiment improved significantly following the RBI policy announcement, propelling the index past 25,000 intraday. The day's price action resulted in the formation of a strong bullish candlestick on the daily chart, with the index closing near the session's high. All major sectoral and broader market indices ended in positive territory. Notably, Nifty Realty, Metal, Banking & Financials, and Auto sectors outperformed, while Pharma, Energy, and FMCG lagged. The broader market participation remained robust, with the advance-decline ratio improving to 4:3, reflecting a healthy market breadth. From a technical perspective, the Nifty 50 is now trading above all its key moving averages across multiple timeframes, indicating underlying strength. The relative strength index (RSI) has turned upward and is currently hovering near 60, reflecting improving momentum. However, the MACD continues to display a negative crossover and has yet to confirm a sustained bullish trend. On a positional basis, a golden crossover, where the 50-DMA crosses above the 200-DMA, has occurred on the daily chart, signalling a potential resurgence of medium- to long-term bullish momentum.

As per O'Neil's methodology of market direction, the market status has been downgraded to "Uptrend Under Pressure" from 'Confirmed Uptrend" on 4 June. The Nifty 50 ended the session around 25,000 with a positive bias. However, for the index to exhibit further bullish strength, a sustained breakout and close above 25,200 is essential. Post-RBI policy announcement, overall market sentiment has turned positive, thereby increasing the likelihood of a near-term breakout. A decisive move above 25,200 could accelerate the upward momentum, potentially driving the index toward 25,700–25,800 in the coming weeks. On the downside, immediate support is placed near 24,500. How did the Nifty Bank perform yesterday? On Friday, the Nifty Bank decisively broke above 56,000, following the RBI policy announcement, after consolidating for five consecutive weeks. The index closed near the day's high in uncharted territory, registering a gain of 1.47% and forming a strong bullish candlestick on the daily chart. Additionally, a breakout above an ascending triangle pattern on the daily timeframe was observed, supported by robust price and volume action. On a weekly basis, the index advanced approximately 1.48% and formed a bullish candlestick, reinforcing the positive momentum. From a technical standpoint, the index is now trading above all its key moving averages across multiple timeframes, supported by strong positive momentum. The daily and weekly relative strength index (RSI) are trending upward, reflecting strengthening buying interest. Notably, the MACD has formed a positive crossover on the weekly chart, reinforcing the bullish trend. However, on the daily timeframe, the MACD continues to exhibit a negative crossover and would need to turn positive to confirm short-term strength. Additionally, the ADX/DMI indicator on the weekly chart also signals a firm bullish trend, further validating the upward bias. According to O'Neil's methodology market direction, the Nifty Bank has recently transitioned from an 'Uptrend Under Pressure" to a more constructive phase of a 'Confirmed Uptrend," highlighting renewed strength and resilience in the broader trend. Also Read: Russia-Ukraine war escalation: Impact on the Indian stock market The index is currently trading with a positive bias across multiple timeframes and is now navigating uncharted territory. As long as it remains above 56,000, the overall outlook remains positive. The recent breakout indicates potential for the index to advance toward 58,500–59,000 in the near term. Conversely, a breach below 56,000 could lead to a phase of sideways consolidation. Notably, the RBI's recent policy measures have had a significant positive impact on the sector, and it is likely to remain buoyant in the coming weeks.
