NIFTY50
The Nifty concluded the week with a 2.57% decline, closing lower on each trading day. The week ended on a negative note for the Nifty, and there is an anticipation that this trend will continue into the next week. While the correction occurred swiftly, it’s premature to label it as a downtrend, as the number of volume distribution days has yet to surpass the specified threshold.
Currently, the market is in a confirmed uptrend. With the exception of Nifty PSU Bank, all sectoral indices closed in the red. Nifty Realty experienced the steepest decline, followed by Nifty Financial and Metal.
The immediate support level stands at 19,200, while on the opposite side, 20,050 will act as a strong resistance.
