Stock Market LIVE Updates: Technical view

Stock Market LIVE Updates: Nifty witnessed range-bound movement after a strong upmove, facing stiff resistance around 25,500–25,550. On the hourly chart, the index has slipped below the 50-hour simple moving average, while the RSI has also moved below the 50 mark, indicating weakening momentum. However, it continues to hold above the breakout zone of 25,200–25,250, which may act as immediate support in the short term. As long as this level is sustained, the broader trend remains positive. A sustained move above 25,550 could trigger fresh upside.

Stock Market LIVE Updates: Expert view

Stock Market LIVE Updates: Indian stock market closed marginally lower, with the Nifty 50 index slipping by approximately 0.22 per cent to 25,476, down 46 points from the previous close. The market exhibited volatility throughout the session, with the index fluctuating between a low of 25,424.8 and a high of 25,548.7. The negative closing was primarily influenced by the nationwide Bharat Bandh strike called by a coalition of trade unions protesting government policies perceived to favour large corporations at the expense of workers.

Although the stock exchanges remained open, the strike caused disruptions in banking, transport, and other sectors, leading to cautious investor sentiment and subdued trading volumes in certain regions. Market participants also remained cautious ahead of upcoming corporate earnings announcements and global macroeconomic developments.
