Over the past week, Lokesh Machines has surged by 16.27%, while the Sensex has dropped by 1.01%.

Despite a challenging year-to-date performance, where Lokesh Machines is down 31.99% against the Sensex's 6.49% gain, its three-year and five-year performances are notably strong, with increases of 185.81% and 667.70%, respectively. The stock is currently trading above its 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, and 100-day moving averages, although it remains below the 200-day moving average. This combination of factors may be contributing to the heightened buying pressure observed in recent sessions.
