Bearish Momentum Resumes in the IT Index

Apr 25, 2022

The Nifty IT index has corrected over 10% this month lead by Infosys (down 18%), Tech Mahindra (down 15%) and Wipro (down 11%) so far.

I recorded a video last week on Equitymaster's YouTube channel explaining why the bulls are tiring in the IT sector. The results are there for you to see as the index is now resuming the bearish momentum in today's session.

In case you haven't watched the video yet, I highly recommend you do so here: IT Stocks: Goodbye Bulls.

The distribution phase of Wyckoff theory is in place on chart of IT sector. This signals the bears have the upper hand.

Nifty IT Index Daily Chart

 

The gap-down opening today resumes the bearish momentum on IT stocks. These stocks are shorting candidates as largecaps are leading the way lower.

I believe IT stocks are a 'short on rise' opportunity as most of them are in future & options (F&O) segment.

In case the index closes below 31,500, the downside momentum could accelerate in the short term.

At present, the IT index is trading down 2% at 31,800 levels. From the index, Mindtree, Tech Mahindra, and L&T Infotech are the top losers today.
