Speaking on the current stock market scenario Prakash Pandey, MD & CEO at Plutus Advisors said, "This continuous rise in the Indian stock market is because of the foreign institutional investors (FIIs) money being pumped into the Indian equity market. This trend is expected to continue till the end of the year as AMC fund managers are trying to maximise the mutual fund NAV returns. So, I would advise equity investors to maintain buy on dips maintaining strict stop loss as there can be sharp correction taking place after 31st of December 2019."
