Latest Market News & Midday Trends
- Benchmarks gain traction: Sensex and Nifty reversed the initial softness to trade higher, powered by buying in banks, IT, and select largecaps.
- Banks, IT drive upside: Nifty Bank (+0.27%) and Nifty IT (+0.30%) lead sectoral momentum, with strong action in SBI, HDFC Bank, Infosys, and TCS.
- Midcaps rally; smallcaps lag: Nifty Midcap 100 added 0.36%; Smallcap 100 remained flat to weak, showing continued caution in riskier bets.
- Volatility remains high: India VIX jumped 3.2%, signaling persistent nervousness and expectation of further swings. Traders remain vigilant for sharp moves as volatility sustains.
- Global & macro backdrop: Asian cues are supportive, though tariff overhang and FII flows continue to influence mood. Strength in defensive and growth sectors suggests selective positioning by participants.
Predictions & What to Watch
- Key levels: Watch for Nifty resistance near 24,470–24,520. If buying persists, Sensex could test 80,300 in afternoon trade.
- Sector leaders: Banks and IT likely to remain in focus for trend confirmation. Further activity in midcaps possible if confidence builds; smallcaps may stay rangebound.
- Volatility signals: Stubbornly high VIX warrants tight stop-losses and risk management; watch for potential intraday reversals.
- Macro catalysts: Eyes on FII/DII flows, US tariff updates, and late-session earnings for cues. Sudden global headline risk can spark moves.
