" Nifty is making all time high regularly after crossing previous top of 4245.30 touched on 08.02.07; while Sensex is yet to clear earlier top of 14723.88 touched on 09.02.07; June Nifty futures are at steep discount of 20 points as on 31.05.2007, which indicate short positions created as a hedge. sensex and nifty closed positive for may'07 over april'07 which is positive, in view of lot of sceptism among majority of analysts predicting a fall or bottom formation in May as it was happening earlier in this bull run. However, markets are markets and they behave as they wish to; So, in such a situation it is better we follow the trend and technicals for making money rather fixing targets."
