Hi Diksha, I missed out buying HDFC Bank and Hindalco yesterday. Can I still buy these stocks today on 17 August?

Yes, these were short to medium term calls for 8-10% upsides. So, if you did miss out on Monday, you can surely pick up HDFC Bank and Hindalco. Ensure that HDFC bank is close to Rs.1,520 and Hindalco is close to Rs.440. Don’t worry about very short term fluctuations as that is normal. The markets are likely to remain under trading pressure due to a truncated week, with a holiday on Thursday. The undertone is positive, especially for metals.
