GIFT Nifty 🇮🇳: (+89, 26167)

Market Recap:

Nifty slipped in Friday’s trade, pressured by weak global cues and renewed worries over stretched valuations in the AI and tech space.

Nifty’s jittery close in Friday’s trade indicates how fragile Nifty’s strength is…

The 2-Big Questions:

1) Has the recent rally run out of steam?
2) Can Nifty recover after Friday’s sharp sell-off?

The Road Ahead:

this Monday morning, Gift Nifty is indicating a solid rebound and that brings us to our call of the day which suggests the rally, the rebound could be bit ephemeral…could be bit short lived.

The 3-Biggest Headwinds:

1) Concerns over stretched AI valuations remain.

2) Rapidly fading expectations of a December U.S. Fed rate cut.

3) FIIs turning sellers in the November 2025 to the tune of ₹13,841 crores.

The Biggest Positive Catalysts:

1) AI rally reignites Wall Street after Nvidia’s earnings and guidance smashed expectations.

2) In Friday’s trade, Dow Jones index flared up 493 Points in Fed-Fueled Bounce.

3) Optimism surrounding a potential US–India trade agreement.

4) India’s retail inflation sliding to a record 0.25% in October, well below the RBI’s tolerance band — strengthening hopes for a December rate cut.

5) New York Fed President John Williams temporarily eased rate-cut worries as he sees “room for a further adjustment in the near term” to bring interest rates closer to neutral.

6) Crude Oil Prices in a Freefall: Futures have tumbled toward $57.45 per barrel, after OPEC signalled a comfortable supply environment — a major macro tailwind for India.

Technically Speaking:

Technically speaking, Nifty is signalling a massive breakout on the upside — the benchmark should hit its all-time-high (26277.35) sooner than later.

The Gyan Mantra is to stay optimistic as long as Nifty holds above the 25,741-support zone — dips remain buying opportunities in the near term.

Nifty is still above its 21 DMA (25846), 50 DMA (25452) and its 100 DMA (25192). Nifty’s 200 DMA at 24515 mark.

Upcoming economic data:

India’s GDP growth data for the quarter ending 30 September 2025 is due on Friday, November 28th

STOCKS IN SPOTLIGHT:

1) Nifty Smallcap index hits over 7-week low in trade, its lowest level since September 30, 2025.
2) Total 25 stocks including Symphony, Aurionpro Solutions, CMS Info Systems, United Foodbrands, Praj Industries, Ramkrishna Forgings, Route Mobile and Five-Star Business Finance have hit their respective 52-week lows on the BSE.
3) Kotak Mahindra Bank board approves 5-for-1 stock split: Kotak Mahindra Bank said it seeks to make its shares more affordable and boost participation from retail investors.
