The Nifty 50 marked its third consecutive positive session, reflecting sustained optimism among investors. However, the index continues to encounter stiff resistance near the 26,050–26,100 zone, while support remains firm around 25,900–25,660. As long as the index holds above 25,800, the broader trend stays firmly bullish. A decisive close above 26,100 could open the door for an extended rally toward 26,250–26,400, whereas a dip below 25,900 may trigger mild profit booking at higher levels.

The domestic market ended on a strong note, supported by positive cues from Asian markets and improved clarity on global trade dynamics. Optimism over potential progress in India–US trade talks further lifted sentiment. Oil stocks led the rally as crude prices eased expectations of higher OPEC+ output, while metal stocks advanced amid firm commodity prices and supply constraints. The upcoming Fed decision remains a key event for global markets; although a 25-bps rate cut is widely anticipated, investors will closely track its commentary for further rate cuts, which will guide the future market trajectory.
