Now as there are no hints of a Fed tapering in Jerome Powell's speech and the US markets made a record high, Indian indices will also be hitting high enough levels in the Monday's session.

Profit booking in overvalued stocks will be seen and investors shall be better off taking positions in high quality stocks.
