NIFTY50
The Nifty concluded the week with a 1.88% gain. Notably, it surpassed its prior peak of 19,992 and maintained this level, highlighting its resilience. On Tuesday, we observed profit-taking activities within the midcap and smallcap indices. It is anticipated that reaching and surpassing the recent highs achieved by certain stocks in the midcap and smallcap sectors may pose a challenge, suggesting the likelihood of consolidation in these segments.
Currently, the market is in a confirmed uptrend. Barring Nifty Media (-3.63%) and Realty (-0.75%), all sectoral indices closed higher for the week. Nifty PSU Bank (+7.22%) was the top gainer, followed by Nifty IT (+2.9%).
The immediate support level stands at 19,900, with 19,250 serving as a secondary support. Given that the market is currently at an all-time high, there are no significant resistance levels in sight.

BANK NIFTY
The week concluded with Bank Nifty posting a 2.38% increase. While Nifty Bank is currently trading close to its resistance threshold, it’s noteworthy that PSU Banks are displaying remarkable resilience, and this strength is anticipated to persist. We foresee Bank Nifty entering a consolidation phase at these levels, with the potential for a breakout in the near future.
For the upcoming week, the Bank Nifty index is expected to have a support level of 44,800, and on the flip side, 46,400 is likely to act as an immediate resistance.
