The stock market has continued its upward momentum since the start of the week, with benchmark indices posting gains for three straight sessions. In the latest trading session, the Sensex climbed 283 points, or 0.33 percent, while the Nifty50 advanced 94 points, or 0.37 percent. The sustained rally has lifted investor sentiment, and analysts note that the Nifty50 is showing signs of a bullish pattern on the National Stock Exchange.

Expectations of a positive opening on Thursday have strengthened further, with Gift Nifty rising 32 points, or 0.13 percent. Support from firm global cues, especially steady gains across Asian markets since morning trade, may help extend the rally on Dalal Street.

In this backdrop, market expert Sumit Bagadia, Executive Director of Choice Broking, has recommended select stocks for investors to consider.
