TODAY’S MARKET RE-CAP:

1) The session was characterised by cautious trading ahead of key global cues, with breadth constrained and volatility elevated.

2) Nifty (-0.60%) opened on a positive note but, bears took over after that and were seen aiming to take control all through the session and the negative takeaway was that the benchmark ended on a jittery note.

Nifty is still above its 21 DMA (25494), 50 DMA (25155) and its 100 DMA (25079). Nifty’s 200 DMA at (24327) mark.

Please note, confirmation of strength now only above 26107 mark.

3) Bank Nifty (-0.72%) witnessed weakness amidst profit booking, mirroring Nifty’s sliding action. Bank Nifty’s new all-time-high still seen at 58577.50 mark.

4) The market breadth (09:41) was clearly in favour of the bears.

4) Nifty Mid-cap (-0.27%) and Nifty Small-cap (-0.10%) indices ended with minor cuts yet again.
