What These Bulk Deals Indicate
The activity on May 19 points to increased institutional rotation and strategic rebalancing ahead of quarterly results and fiscal guidance. Sectors like defense, specialty chemicals, and shipbuilding are in the spotlight, possibly due to government contracts, export orders, or index inclusion rumors.
Investors and analysts should keep an eye on Ami Organics for near-term price movements, given the large entry by Kotak Mutual Fund. Similarly, Cochin Shipyard and GRSE’s volumes hint at future price volatility or corporate events on the horizon.
Conclusion
Bulk deals like these offer a window into market sentiment and big-ticket movements by seasoned investors. May 19 was particularly active, dominated by Aakraya Research LLP’s swift intraday switches, strategic exits by promoters in Paras Defence, and a bullish bet by Kotak Mutual Fund in Ami Organics.
