“Domestic equities saw profit booking and slipped to 3-months low. Nifty opened marginal green, but soon gave up its early gains and witnessed second consecutive day of selling to close with loss of 160 points (0.8%) at 19,122 levels. Profit booking continued in mid-cap and small-cap stocks. Except Metals and PSU Bank, all sectors ended in red. Metal stocks were in momentum after China unveiled plans for $137 billion extra debt to boost infrastructure spending. Overall we expect Indian markets to remain volatile on the back of concerns over higher interest rates, ongoing Israel-Hamas war and mixed Q2 results. On global front, investors will take cues from ECB interest rate decision on Thursday,” said Siddhartha Khemka, Head – Retail Research, Motilal Oswal Financial Services.

Technical View

Commenting on the technical outlook of Nifty 50, Jatin Gedia – Technical Research Analyst at Sharekhan by BNP Paribas, said, “On the daily charts we can observe that the Nifty has reached the lower end of the falling channel and very close to the psychological level of 19,000. The short-term trend is negative and minor degree pullbacks are being sold into. Considering the sharp fall in the last couple of trading sessions, there can be consolidation, however it is likely to be a temporary pause. On the downside the Nifty is likely to drift towards 19,000 from short term perspective. On the way up 19,350 – 19,370 shall act as an immediate hurdle zone.”

Bank Nifty Outlook

On Wednesday, the Bank Nifty index tumbled 319.20 points or 0.74% to 42,382. “The Bank Nifty bears maintained control, leading to a breach of the 43,000 support level. The overall market sentiment remains bearish, and a ‘sell on rise’ strategy is advisable. Immediate resistance is seen at 43,500, and further selling pressure could potentially drive the index down to 42,000, a long-term support level,” said Kunal Shah, Senior Technical & Derivative analyst at LKP Securities.
