Stock Markets LIVE Updates LIVE: Market expert's view

Stock Market LIVE Updates: Indian equity markets went on a sell-off mode despite an optimistic global market and supportive domestic PMI data. Sentiment weighed down on uptick crude oil prices, a sharp depreciation of the rupee to record lows, FII selling and earnings delivery falling marginally short of expectations amid premium India valuations. Realty and PSU bank stocks underperformed on execution-related delays and profit booking, while Adani Group stocks came under pressure amid reports of potential summons by the US regulator. Looking ahead, market sentiment is likely to remain cautious as investors position for the upcoming Union Budget and the US Fed’s interest rate decision, where expectations are muted.

Stock Market LIVE Updates: Technical view

Stock Market LIVE Updates: Nifty opened flat to mildly positive but once again failed to sustain above the 25,300 zone, slipping into a clear intraday downtrend. The index continued to consolidate with a sequence of lower highs and lower lows and eventually moved back below its 200-day exponential moving average (EMA), reinforcing the prevailing negative bias. The psychological 25,000 level remains a critical near-term support; a decisive breakdown below this zone could accelerate selling pressure toward the 24,900–24,800 region. On the upside, 25,200–25,300 now acts as an immediate supply band, with 25,400 emerging as the key reversal threshold. The Moving average convergence divergence (MACD) remains in negative territory, confirming sustained downside momentum. While oversold conditions may allow a brief technical bounce, the broader structure continues to favour sellers unless the index decisively reclaims higher resistance zones.
