Tata Chem (Buy Above 645 with Stop Loss at 635 for
Target of 665): The stock has been in a consolidation mode for the past two
months and was stuck in a trading range. Finally, Tata Chem has reversed and
has broken out from a symmetrical triangle pattern on the daily chart
with credible volumes. Once the stock surpasses a minor hurdle of Rs 648, we
expect Tata Chem to move higher towards its potential target of Rs 665 in
near term.

month the index has been above the 50 mark that separates growth from
contraction.
Implementation of GST, albeit complex, will remove domestic trade

Korea fired a missile, which US officials concluded was an intercontinental
ballistic missile, into Japanese waters.
