The Nifty 50 index regained the psychological 25,000 peak and ended at 25,010. The BSE Sensex surged 611 points and closed at 81,698, while the Bank Nifty index finished 214 points higher at 51,148. Cash market volumes on the NSE continued to fall, down 5.6% compared to the previous day. Broad market indices rose less than the Nifty even as the advance-decline ratio remained positive at 1.07:1.
Trade setup for Tuesday
On the outlook for Nifty today, Nagaraj Shetti, Senior Technical Research Analyst at HDFC Securities, said, "The short-term trend of Nifty continues to be positive. The market will soon zoom into new all-time highs after moving above the crucial hurdles around 24700 and 24950 levels. A decisive move above the 25K mark could soon open the upside target of 25,300 to 25. The market will soon zoom into new all-time highs after moving above the crucial hurdles around 24700 and 24950 levels400 levels. Immediate support is at 24,850."
On the outlook for the Bank Nifty today, Hrishikesh Yedve, AVP Technical and Derivatives Research at Asit C Mehta, said, "The Bank Nifty opened on a positive note but encountered trend line resistance, leading to some profit booking. However, the index managed to settle the day positively at 51,148 levels. Technically, the Bank Nifty, on a daily scale, has formed a shooting star candle near the trend line resistance, suggesting potential resistance. Thus, 51,320 will act as resistance for the Bank Nifty in the short term. The sustainable move above 51,320 will push the index further higher to 52,000. Moreover, the index is above its 21-DEMA support, near the 50,830 level. If the index holds above 50,800, a "buy on dips" strategy is advisable."
Global markets update
"US Fed rate cut buzz is expected to fuel the global markets, including Dalal Street. On Wall Street, the Dow Jones ended at a record high on Monday after the buying buzz in the cyclical stocks amid tech rotation. The US dollar rates have also come down due to profit-booking in the US dollar and US bond market. Overall, the market trend is expected to remain positive," said Avinash Gorakshkar, Head of Research at Profitmart Securities.
"We expect the ongoing momentum to continue towards new highs with broader market participation. This week, the market will focus on India & US GDP data, derivatives monthly expiry, and other global cues," said Siddhartha Khemka, Head of Retail Research at Motilal Oswal.
