The relentless surge in stock prices over the past several weeks has made several investors complacent that the good times will continue.
However, Ashwani Gujral, a veteran trader has struck a cautionary note and pointed out that the market is fairly over extended and a correction is due any day now. He stated that stock prices had surged so much that it was very difficult to buy anything of reasonable quality at a value zone.
Ashwani Gujral pointed out that the market had given wild gains in a short period of time and that investors must take advantage to take some money off the table.
He predicted that the Nifty could plunge to 5800 levels in a month’s time. That would be an opportune time to buy, he said, because it would look like a crises situation.
Meanwhile, Ashwani Gujral’s 5 stock picks haven’t done well despite the surging rally. Of the 5 stocks, three have registered losses while only 2 are in the green. The average return of the 5 stocks over 3 months is 4.84%.

Looks a trifle early for this kind of correction. I think, this may happen post election or if there is a hung parliament or if there is a 3rd front govt.
