Stocks To Watch On Monday
From a Rs 16,350 crore steel expansion to a Rs 1 lakh crore infrastructure financing pact and a new wind power project, these three stocks could attract investor attention on Monday.
✨ Key Takeaways
Indian benchmark equity indices ended higher on Friday, July 3, with the Nifty 50 extending its winning streak to a third consecutive session and closing at a two-month high. Gains in information technology and realty stocks supported the rally after softer-than-expected US economic data eased concerns over near-term interest rate hikes by the US Federal Reserve.
The Nifty 50 opened nearly 200 points higher before witnessing profit booking during the session. The index slipped to an Intraday low of 24,252.35 before recovering to settle at 24,270.85, up 95.15 points, or 0.39 per cent. The Sensex also ended in positive territory, gaining 261.79 points, or 0.34 per cent, to close at 77,763.91.
Against this backdrop, the following stocks are likely to remain in focus during Monday's trading session.
