How Wednesday's Broader Session Unfolded

The Nifty 50 closed at 22,811.35, down 0.34 percent, with a high of 23,120.90 and a low of 22,649.90. The Sensex closed at 73,709.69, down 0.19 percent, and the Bank Nifty closed at 54,976.90, down 0.92 percent. India VIX, the market's fear gauge, rose 6.16 percent to 15.68, which points to wider expected swings in the near term. Wednesday was the first session after Tuesday's Dussehra holiday and followed Monday's 1.11 percent fall. The Nifty 50 recovered from an intraday low of 22,649.90, with Nifty IT up 2.88 percent offsetting falls of 1.71 percent in Nifty Metal and 1.54 percent in Nifty Auto. The trigger for the broad move was not independently confirmed.

This nifty financial services prediction for tomorrow will be most useful when read alongside the support and resistance table above.

Analyst View for Tomorrow

Kunal Singla suggests that the index needs to reclaim 24,987.10, the previous close, to turn the tone constructive, with 24,569.40 the support to watch.

Ankit Jaiswal flags that India VIX rose 6.16 percent to 15.68, which signals more caution, so financial stocks may stay volatile tomorrow.

A fair reading of this nifty financial services prediction for tomorrow is that Wednesday's data sets the context, while Thursday's first hour decides how much of it carries forward.
