Multibagger Defence Stock Apollo Micro Shares Gain
Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) were net buyers in the capital markets on Thursday, as they purchased shares worth Rs 2,575.85 crore, according to exchange data.
Shares of Apollo Micro System gained over 3 per cent from its previous close of Rs 104.47 apiece on the NSE. The stock has gained over four days of consecutive fall. According to the BSE analytics, the counter has delivered multibagger returns of 125 per cent in the last one year. The scrip has surged 781 per cent in the last two years and has given multibagger return of 830 per cent in the last three years.
The surge in share price comes even as benchmark equity indices declined in early trade on Friday amid profit-taking after a record rally in the last few trading sessions and selling in blue-chips HDFC Bank and ICICI Bank. The 30-share BSE Sensex plunged 504.27 points to 79,545.40. The NSE Nifty slipped 105.30 points to 24,196.85.
Among the 30 Sensex companies, HDFC Bank, Mahindra & Mahindra, Titan, Tata Steel, ICICI Bank, IndusInd Bank, Power Grid, and Kotak Mahindra Bank were the major laggards. Sun Pharmaceuticals, JSW Steel, Larsen & Toubro, Hindustan Unilever, Reliance Industries, Infosys and Tech Mahindra were among the gainers.
Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) were net buyers in the capital markets on Thursday, as they purchased shares worth Rs 2,575.85 crore, according to exchange data. “FIIs’ huge long position in the index derivatives and strong buying in the cash market can support the market in the near term. An important trigger may come from the US jobs data expected on Friday.
“If the jobs data show a loosening labour market and a slowing economy, it can lead to rate cuts by the Fed in September,” V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services, said.
In Asian markets, Seoul quoted higher, while Tokyo, Shanghai and Hong Kong traded lower.
