December challenges:

Unlike the rest of 2017, the month of December might be tough on bulls. The S&P BSE Sensex which climbed Mount 33K is now trading around 32,700 levels.

Benchmark indices climbed to record highs in the month of November but since then the trend shifted downwards.

It looks like market participants prefer to be on the sidelines ahead of key events such as US Federal Reserve policy meet and back home, the outcome of state election results. However, analysts advise investors to buy stocks on dips whenever possible as the structural bull market is still intact.

Nilesh Shah, MD, and CEO of Envision Capital sees a shallow correction for the Street. “It looks like there could be 4-5 percent correction ahead. That is how markets have behaved and it is unlikely to move in some other way. This could be year-end profit booking,” Shah told CNBC-TV18 in an interview.

Will political outcomes from state and general elections ahead make any impact on the market ahead? Shah said he won’t be surprised if political debate takes over the market between 2018 and 2019.

Frontline indices are going through a corrective phase, with the Nifty shedding around 300-350 odd points from record highs.

While some investors could raise concerns over it, but market veterans such as Madhusudan Kela see this time as a positive thing.

“There are plenty opportunities which are there in the markets, both in midcaps and large-caps. Corrections like these give investors to capture the opportunity,”Kela told CNBC-TV18 in an interview.

Further, he said that such a correction was long overdue as there has not been one since Nifty’s levels of around 7,800.

Speaking on the impact of upcoming Gujarat elections, Kela believes that if the verdict goes, either way, a meaningful correction is unlikely.
