Key Factors Behind the Market Rally
1) Positive Global Cues
Asian markets showed mixed trends, with Shanghai trading in the green while Hong Kong remained in the red. In the U.S., major indices saw gains:
📈 S&P 500 rose 0.38% (21.22 points) to 5,633.07
📈 Nasdaq Composite jumped 0.87% (150.60 points) to 17,449.89
📉 Dow Jones dipped slightly by 0.03% (11.80 points) to 41,989.96
The market is closely monitoring U.S. tariff announcements, which could have further implications for global trade and investor sentiment.
“The element of uncertainty regarding reciprocal tariffs is expected to ease with today’s announcement. However, considering past unpredictability in trade policies, some volatility may persist,” said V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services.
2) Value Buying in Large-Cap Stocks
After recent corrections, investors found opportunities in fundamentally strong large-cap stocks.
Blue-chip stocks, including HDFC Bank, Maruti Suzuki, ICICI Bank, and IT heavyweights like Infosys and Tech Mahindra, witnessed renewed buying interest.
“We are entering the earnings season, and with the RBI’s monetary policy decision coming up, multiple triggers are playing out,” said Anita Gandhi, Founder and Head of Institutional Business at Arihant Capital Markets.
3) Easing Volatility Index (VIX)
The India VIX, a measure of market volatility, declined 0.89% to 13.66, indicating reduced market fears and improving investor confidence.
Technical Outlook: What’s Next for Nifty?
Market analysts suggest that the recent pullback aligns with key technical retracement levels, setting the stage for further gains.
📊 Support Levels: 23,137, with a strong floor at 22,960
📊 Resistance Levels: 24,200
“The five-day decline has hit the 38% Fibonacci retracement level, a crucial point for bulls to regain momentum. If support holds, we could see a move towards 24,200,” said Anand James, Chief Market Strategist at Geojit Financial Services.
