"It would be interesting to see whether Nifty witnesses any intraday correction at all post the European markets opening."
According to Likhita Chepa, Senior Research Analyst, CapitalVia Global Research: "The Indian benchmark had a gap up start today and is likely to recover from the previous session's fall."
"There will be some volatility in the market as today is the weekly F&O expiry. There may be some cautiousness as India recorded a spike in new Covid-19 cases in the past 24 hours."-IANS
