Quick Answer<\/strong><\/p>\n

Stock market outlook today points to a flat to weak start, with GIFT Nifty around 22,557 to 22,601, about 32 to 35 points below the Nifty futures’ previous close, after Wall Street ended lower on 7 October as bond yields rose, with the Dow down 0.66% and the S&P 500 and Nasdaq each down about 0.22%. The Nifty closed at 22,603.05 on Wednesday, down 173.05 points or 0.76%, and the Sensex at 72,638.70, down 429.11 points, as the RBI’s 25 bps hike to 5.50% and Brent near $101 weighed, while foreign investors sold Rs 6,121 crore and domestic institutions bought Rs 4,597 crore. My calculated pivot levels put first support near 22,527 and 22,451 and first resistance near 22,698 and 22,794, with the Nifty’s 22,500 zone the level that traders are watching. TCS reports Q2 results after market hours and the GST Council meets today, so expect a range-bound session with stock-specific moves unless global yields or oil jump.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Stock market outlook today is shaped by yields, oil and foreign selling, since the Nifty is already about 14% below its September 2024 peak. Asian markets were lower on Thursday morning, with the Nikkei down 0.55% and the Kospi down 0.2%.<\/p>\n
