Since valuations are rich from the short-term perspective some profit booking can be considered by investors who do not have a long-term time horizon, says V. K. Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services.

"Investors should remain invested in the market. Long-term investors can continue with their systematic investments. High quality financials are even now trading at fair valuations," he added.
