Stock Market Today: The Nifty-50 Index saw a sharp correction on Monday, ending 1.27% lower at 23,995.35. The S&P BSE Sensex also saw a sharp cut of 1.18% to 78,782.24. The Bank Nifty, too, corrected to 51,215.25 in tandem with the benchmark Indices, as Metals Realty and Oil& Gas saw steeper corrections.
The current market texture is weak but oversold, so the strong possibility of one intraday pullback rally is not ruled out, said Shrikant Chouhan, Head Equity Research, Kotak Securities. For the day traders now, 23800 for the Nifty and 78500 for the Sensex would be the key support zone. Above the same, it could bounce back until 24050.
The Bank Nifty is likely to trade within a range of 52500 – 50500 and with a negative bias, said Jatin Gedia, technical research analyst at Sharekhan. Crucial support is placed at 50720 – 50600, while resistance is placed at 51750 – 51800.
As expected, India is underperforming its global peers due to excess valuation, said Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Financial Services. Weak Q2 earnings have deepened the selloff, dampening investor sentiment. Continued volatility is anticipated in the short term as attention shifts to the closely contested US presidential election. Additionally, key economic events, such as the US Fed and BoE policy decisions, will be critical in shaping market movements.
