Stock Market Highlights LIVE Updates: Nifty has now corrected more than 10% from its record high

Markets extended their corrective phase, declining by nearly one and a half percent, continuing the existing downward trend. After a flat opening, Nifty gradually drifted lower, retesting its critical support at the 200-day exponential moving average (DEMA) for the first time in nearly five months. Pressure was felt across key sectors, with realty, metal, and auto stocks among the biggest losers.

Broader indices also experienced a sharp decline, each losing over 2.5 per cent. Nifty has now corrected more than 10 per cent from its record high, reaching its major moving average support. Notably, alongside with the benchmark index, banking index, midcap and smallcap indices also retested their long-term support levels at the 200 DEMA today. This confluence of support and oversold conditions might trigger a rebound, although any recovery could be limited to select stocks. Traders are advised to monitor positions closely and maintain a hedged strategy.

Mid and small-cap stocks were the worst hit, while the Financials and Auto sectors also showed significant weakness. This trend is mirrored across all emerging markets, as markets are jittery about future US policy actions, including trade-related implications for the world economy, which is reflected in the strengthening US dollar and rising yields.
