🔍 Heatmap Highlights – Who’s Hot, Who’s Not?
🟩 Top Gainers (So Far):
- Honasa (Mamaearth): ₹317 🔼 +15% – FY25 results triggered an influencer-less breakout
- Power Mech: +7.6% – Infra’s strong, capex cycle stronger
- JK Lakshmi Cement: +5.9% – Cement stocks riding volume optimism
- Zensar Tech, HEG, New India Assurance: All +4-5%
🟥 Pain Points:
- Waaree Energies: 🔻 -4.9% – Profit booking after a run-up
- Sun Pharma, Laurus Labs – Mild sell-off post results
- GMR Airports: Flat after its massive loss report
🧠 EduInvesting Take
Today’s mood: Green tea and green candles.
- Honasa is the headline act. After posting ₹726 Cr profit and silencing every post-IPO critic, it’s now the poster child of D2C redemption.
- Cement, power, and public sector banks are seeing renewed FII nibbling.
- Pharma is diverging — while Emcure surges, others are seeing quiet exits.
The market breadth is strong, and India VIX barely moved — so expect this rally to sustain at least till closing, unless global cues turn.
🚨 What to Watch Post-Lunch:
- US jobless data later tonight
- F&O rollovers – expect action in PSU banks & realty
- Keep tracking volume leaders: Honasa, Power Mech, Emcure, JK Lakshmi Cem
