Good Morning, Everyone, Indian market created history yesterday which all of us waiting for and I am sure many of us celebrated it too. However, Like I said yesterday in our community, 16000 was a target till yesterday, but now it is just another number as we look forward to the next target of 16500.

Target gets interesting only when it is tough to achieve, as we have been seeing in the market for the last 6 weeks. The market was into total consolidation without major movements, each time giving us a high by closing near 15900 and then finally breaking that barrier and giving a break out in style. However 16000 is history now, let's move forward.

Global Markets:

Apple and some health care stocks rise to help the US market also attain a record high yesterday, which was so powerful that people have forgotten about the delta variant scare.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 278.24 points, or 0.8%, to 35,116.4, the S&P 500 gained 35.99 points, or 0.82%, to 4,423.15 and the Nasdaq Composite added 80.23 points, or 0.55%, to 14,761.30.

When US markets are positive along with Indian, we could see that effect in the Asian markets too as we could see them also higher in the morning trade today. Four initial public offerings worth more than Rs 3,600 crore open for subscription on August 4 and close on August 6 – Devyani International, Windlas Biotech, Exxaro Tiles, and Krsnaa Diagnostics.

Experts recommend investing in Krsnaa Diagnostics and Devyani International shares because both could make listing gains and are also good long-term bets.

Indian automakers are seeking an extra year to meet tighter rules on fuel efficiency, aimed at reducing carbon emissions, as the companies reel from the financial impact of COVID-19.
