Though sentiment has improved slightly, overall weakness is likely to persist as the index remains below the 21EMA. On the lower end, 23,000 is likely to act as immediate support, and a fall below this level might trigger panic in the market. However, above 23,200, the Nifty could gather more strength,” De said.Here are 5 stock recommendations for Thursday: Stock Ideas
