Stock Market LIVE Updates: Market expert's view

Stock Market LIVE Updates: Positive signals from the trade deal, coupled with the return of foreign institutional investors (FIIs), fuelled a risk-on sentiment in the market. Investors are closely watching upcoming results, with PSU banks delivering stronger-than-anticipated performance, helping the PSU bank index outperform. Meanwhile, an accumulation strategy was observed in consumer durables and real estate stocks following the recent correction, driven by expectations of a demand revival. The recovery was broad-based, with sectors such as cement, capital goods, textiles, and consumer discretionary attracting investor interest, supported by union budget proposals and favourable trade deals.

Stock Market LIVE Updates: Technical view

Stock Market LIVE Updates: Nifty 50 is currently moving in a tight consolidation band after an initial gap-up and subsequent sharp sell-off, with prices oscillating around the 25,800–25,880 zone. The index continues to trade above its key short-term moving averages, with the 20- and 100-day double moving averages (DMAs) clustered near 25,550–25,600, suggesting the broader structure remains neutral to mildly constructive as long as these supports are defended. The relative strength index (RSI) around 55–56 points to neutral-positive momentum but lacks strong directional conviction, which is evident from the narrow intraday range and low-volatility price action. Immediate support lies at 25,550–25,600, followed by a stronger demand area near 25,450–25,500. On the upside, the 25,900–26,000 zone continues to act as a strong supply and psychological barrier, and only a sustained breakout above this band can reignite upside momentum. Until then, the near-term setup remains range-bound with a mild upward bias, favouring a buy-on-dips near support and sell-on-rises near 25,900–26,000 strategy.
