“Zomato stock has given a beautiful breakout of the inverse head & shoulder formation pattern with huge volume. The overall structure of the stock appears to be good as it attempts to bottom out from lower levels, with a cluster of moving averages forming a base around Rs. 60. Stock has the potential to rise to 90+ levels in a longer time frame. The momentum indicator RSI is trading above the 50 mark with a positive bias, whereas MACD is witnessing a centerline crossover. On the upside, 75 will be an immediate hurdle, but 90 looks like an imminent target in the near term. On the downside, 60 is a strong support level," said Pravesh Gour, Senior Technical Analyst, Swastika Investmart.

In the broader internet stock space, VK Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services, said there is high activity in some of these stocks where the lock-in period of initial investors is ending.
“There is huge supply and high volatility in their stock prices. It is difficult to say what is the fair value for such stocks since many are loss-making and, therefore, the conventional parameters of valuations like EPS and PE ratio do not apply. Some of these stocks have a long runway of potential high growth over many years. Some of them may turn out to be big wealth creators in the long run. So this segment may be keenly watched," he added.
