"It appears that the market is heading for a year end rally. Two factors that can accelerate this rally are the sharp reversal in the rupee and the FIIs turning buyers in the cash market. These two factors which are mutually reinforcing can trigger short covering in the market helping the benchmark indices to scale higher highs," VK Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Investments Limited, said.

On Friday, the <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/business/stock-market/article/stock-markets-bounce-back-after-falling-in-early-deals-23606234" rel="nofollow">Sensex</a> jumped 447.55 points or 0.53 per cent to settle at 84,929.36. The Nifty climbed 150.85 points or 0.58 per cent to 25,966.40.
