Stock market today
On the outlook for the Indian stock market today, Siddhartha Khemka, Head of Research — Wealth Management at Motilal Oswal, said, “Looking ahead, markets are expected to remain firm, with participation likely from the broader market segments as macro and earnings tailwinds continue to provide support. Investors will also closely watch key data releases next week, including quarterly GDP figures for India and the US.”
Speaking on the outlook of the Nifty 50 index, Shiju Kuthupalakkal, Senior Manager of Technical Research at Prabhudas Lilladher, said, “The Nifty 50 index has indicated a strong pullback from near the 24,500 zone with a bullish candle formation on the daily chart with overall bias maintained and can anticipate for further rise in the coming sessions with upside targets 25,400 and 25,600 levels expected. As mentioned earlier, the index would have a crucial support zone near the 24,500 level. A decisive breach above the 25,000 zone shall trigger fresh upward movement with the broader markets also showing active participation to support the benchmark index.”
“The Bank Nifty index has indicated a strong bullish candle formation with bias improving. Most frontline banking stocks have shown positive signs of an upward move, accompanied by most PSU banks, which look good. As mentioned earlier, the index needs to breach above the 55,700 zones decisively to trigger a fresh upward move, having targets of 57,200 and 58,500 possible in the coming days,” Shiju said.
