Earlier red closes include 2016 and 2017, when the Nifty fell 0.14% and 0.63%.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Which_winning_streak_ended\"><\/span><strong>Which winning streak ended?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> The seven-session winning streak of the Sensex and Nifty ended with the Muhurat close. The indices had risen in the sessions before Diwali, and analysts cited overbought conditions and profit booking.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Which_sectors_led_and_lagged_in_the_Muhurat_trading_2026_close\"><\/span><strong>Which sectors led and lagged in the Muhurat trading 2026 close?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Nifty Media rose 1.88% and Nifty Pharma 1.44% at the pre-close stage, per Kotak Neo.
