Abhijeet from Tips2trade said, “A sharp recovery in Adani Ports stock today has been more of profit-taking by short sellers than any positive outlook. Even though daily charts are very oversold, only a close above Rs 534 can be used by investors to buy for targets of Rs 629-Rs 667 in the near term. Support will be at Rs 395.”
