Stock Market LIVE Updates: Expert view

Stock Market LIVE Updates: This muted close comes after a week of heavy selling, with most sectors remaining under pressure due to global and domestic uncertainties. The flat close can largely be attributed to the absence of new positive triggers and apprehension over possible adverse developments. President Trump’s announcement of steep tariffs on Indian pharmaceutical exports weighed on sentiment, raising fears of earnings pressure for key pharma players. Additionally, speculation about stricter H1-B visa norms impacted frontline IT stocks and kept a lid on broader market enthusiasm. Despite early gains in PSU banks, energy, and select realty stocks, profit booking in heavyweights especially in private banking names and large-cap IT erased much of the intraday upmove. Midcap indices saw selective buying, but smallcaps underperformed, further adding to the indecisive undertone.

Looking ahead, market participants will be keenly watching the RBI Monetary Policy Committee meeting that commenced today. Consensus expectations suggest RBI will maintain rates but deliver a dovish message, balancing inflation risks against the need to support growth. However, investors remain cautious, awaiting positive news ontrade talks with the US or policy clarity from the RBI, which could determine whether any bounce sustains or further weakness ensues.

Stock Market LIVE Updates: Technical View

Stock Market LIVE Updates: On Monday, Nifty witnessed a mild rebound but faced selling pressure near its 20-EMA on the hourly chart, ending the day with a weak close on the daily chart. Derivative data showed put writing at 24,600 and 24,500 strikes, highlighting immediate support zones, while call writers at 24,700 and 24,800 indicated resistance. Based on these technical and derivative cues, the index is likely to trade in a short-term range of 24,500–24,850 with volatility and a sideways-to-bearish undertone. A sustained move above its 50-day EMA is needed to turn bullish.
