Stocks to buy: Raja Venkatraman recommends three stocks for today—19 December
Live MintNifty 50 on 18 December: Recap The lack of clarity in the Nifty 50 has instilled a bearish bias, setting a negative tone for the start of the curtailed trading week. Profit booking in large-cap stocks has contributed to a gradual decline, with the slow and steady pace of the downturn adding to the market's complexity. Although mid- and small-cap stocks have shown some signs of bullishness, large-cap stocks continue to face a steady decline, fuelling downward momentum across the broader market. Three stocks to buy, recommended by NeoTrader’s Raja Venkatraman: • HDFC Asset Management Co. Ltd: Sell at ₹4370, stop ₹4400, target ₹4325 The banking and related sectors have struggled to sustain their gains, with recent trends indicating a downward trajectory. • BF Utilities Ltd: Buy at ₹1040, stop ₹1020, target ₹1070 BF Utilities has been witnessing renewed demand at lower levels, driven by its electricity generation through windmills and infrastructure activities.
