NIFTY:
The week began strongly for the Nifty, thanks to a substantial jump of more than 300 points fueled by state assembly election results. By the week’s end, the Nifty closed just below the significant 21,000 mark, securing a decent 3.5% gain.
After such a strong rally, there might be some profit booking or a settling phase at these levels. However, decisively crossing the 21,000 mark could lead to further upward movement.
The BSE Midcap had a modest showing, while the BSE Smallcap ended with a Doji candle, suggesting a possible slowdown. Although the main trend remains strong, dropping below the previous week’s low might trigger some short-term profit booking.
All sectors, except Pharma, saw positive closures. Notably, Nifty Energy and PSU Banks performed exceptionally well. Immediate support is noted at 20,600, with tough resistance at 21,500.
Nifty50 Weekly Chart
Bank Nifty started the week with vigor, characterized by a significant jump, culminating in a commendable 5.5% gain. The Reserve Bank of India’s Monetary Policy Committee decided to maintain the repo rate at 6.50% for the fifth consecutive time, contributing to positive market sentiment. This strategic decision supports the overall positive outlook, indicating sustained momentum in the short term for the banking index. A probable support zone is anticipated around 46,500, with resistance likely near the 48,000 mark. This sets an optimistic stage for the upcoming trading sessions.
