The markets are again getting ready for a spate of issues in the coming days before Christmas comes and there would be a wide variety on offer.One may look at the existing listed shares in the housing finance space as better opportunities may lie there.

Coming to the markets in the week ahead, we have had a sharp rise in the previous week and markets must consolidate in the coming week.The levels on the upside could be between 21,100-21,150 on Nifty and 70,300-70,450 on BSE Sensex.

On the downside there could be some sharp corrections due to profit taking and support exists at levels of 20,600-20,650 on Nifty and at 68,850-69,000 on BSE Sensex.The trading strategy would be to use rallies to sell and book profits.

Without correction in the markets, fresh long positions may be avoided.

The markets have a long way to go and the ensuing rally would be something for 5-6 months.

One will need to be patient to profit from this rally.Do not be in a hurry to make money.Be patient and ride out the rally.

In conclusion, wait for a correction and consolidation in the coming week.
