Stocks to buy or sell: Osho Krishan of Angel One suggests buying LIC, Titan Company shares on 9 July

Indian benchmark indices Nifty 50 and Sensex opened higher on July 9, recovering part of the prior session's over 2% plunge triggered by Middle East tensions and crude oil prices rising to near USD 79 a barrel. Angel One analyst Osho Krishan recommended buying LIC at around INR 420-425 with a target of INR 455-460, citing a flag pattern breakout, and Titan Company citing its sustained higher-highs uptrend. Broader markets outperformed with Nifty Midcap 100 up 0.8% and Nifty Smallcap 100 up 0.6%, though Nifty IT fell 1.8% led by a 2% decline in TCS ahead of its June-quarter earnings announcement.
