Nifty remained volatile with a largely negative bias throughout the session. On the lower end, the index challenged the support levels of 17400-17450. On the higher end, it failed to sustain above 17600. Going ahead, the weakness may continue. Crucial support is seen at 17400, below which a serious correction in the market may be witnessed. On the higher end, resistance is visible at 17600/17800

Market view: Dr. V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services

Though the global markets have already factored higher levels of inflation owing to high fuel and food prices, the unfavourable numbers dampened investor sentiments. The ECB policy decision will be closely monitored for direction on how the Central bank plans to balance slowing growth and record-high inflation. With the onset of the earnings season, the market is likely to be buoyed by sector specific momentum.
