All that happened in markets today.

Market comment: Jayant Manglik, President, Retail Distribution, Religare Broking

Markets ended marginally lower amid volatility, taking a breather after the recent up move. Nifty opened with an uptick, taking note of favourable local cues but, caution ahead of the Reliance results triggered profit taking as the day progressed. Most sectoral indices traded in line with the benchmark index and ended lower. Markets will first react to Reliance and HDFC bank’s numbers next week. We may see further consolidation in Nifty but bias would remain on the positive side. Traders should maintain caution especially on broader front as midcap and smallcap counters react sharply during such scenario. Also, we suggest keeping close watch on earnings season for cues.
