Key Drivers for Monday

• Zinc fell 0.45 percent on the MCX 30 November contract, with a high of 414.20 and a low of 408.75.
• The high of 414.20 stayed below the previous settlement of 414.35, so the price never traded above it.
• Copper fell 0.83 percent, so base metals were weak together.

Ankit Jaiswal and Kunal Singla suggest revisiting this zinc prediction for monday after the first thirty minutes of Monday's trade.

Anyone following this zinc prediction for monday should keep the next session's opening range in view before reading too much into early moves.

Nothing in this zinc prediction for monday is a promise of returns, and every level quoted can fail.

What to Watch Alongside Zinc

Hindustan Zinc and Vedanta are the large listed names linked to zinc prices, and the Nifty Metal index rose 0.76 percent on Friday. Univest is not tracking a specific stock move beyond the index.

How Friday's Broader Session Unfolded

The Nifty 50 closed at 25,030.35, up 2.01 percent, and finished at the high of the day after opening almost unchanged and climbing about 642 points from a low of 24,388.05. It closed above the 25,000 mark and about 8.6 percent above last Friday's close of 23,053.10. The Sensex closed at 81,028.02, up 2.17 percent, and the Bank Nifty closed at 59,086.00, up 2.27 percent, also at the day's high. This was the sixth straight daily gain for both the Nifty 50 and the Sensex. India VIX, the market's fear gauge, rose 12.77 percent to 17.57 even as the indices climbed, which points to traders pricing in wider swings. The Nifty Midcap 50 rose 0.33 percent and the Nifty 500 rose 1.01 percent, while the Nifty Smallcap 250 fell 0.84 percent, so large caps led the rise. Nifty Private Bank rose 3.22 percent and Nifty Financial Services rose 2.57 percent, while Nifty IT rose only 0.43 percent and Nifty PSU Bank rose 0.60 percent. NSE's holiday calendar shows regular equity trading is closed on Tuesday, 10 November 2026, for Diwali Balipratipada. The trigger for the broad rise was not independently confirmed.

Univest's analysts suggest treating this zinc prediction for monday as a preparation note for Monday, 9 November 2026, rather than a signal that changes over the weekend.

Analyst View for Monday

Kunal Singla suggests that zinc needs to reclaim 414.35, the previous settlement, to improve the tone, with 408.75 the support to watch.

Ankit Jaiswal flags that the high stayed below the previous settlement, which is a mild caution, though the fall was small.

This zinc prediction for monday will be most useful when read alongside the support and resistance table above.

Why This Is Written for Monday

This zinc prediction for monday is written after the close on Friday, 6 November 2026, using Friday's closing data, for the next regular trading session on Monday, 9 November 2026. Regular equity trading is closed on Saturday, 7 November. On Sunday, 8 November, NSE and BSE hold a special Muhurat trading session for Diwali Laxmi Pujan from 2:20 PM to 3:30 PM, so prices can move before Monday opens. Treat this as a briefing to prepare for Monday's session, not a live call that updates over the weekend.

MCX futures trade late into Friday night and then pause for the weekend, so global moves after Friday's close can open Monday with a gap. MCX evening trade continues on Tuesday, 10 November, even though NSE equities are closed.

A fair reading of this zinc prediction for monday is that Friday's data sets the context, while Monday's first hour decides how much of it carries forward.

Risks to This Prediction
