Wall Street closed higher on Tuesday, with all three major indexes posting monthly and quarterly gains despite concerns over a potential U.S. government shutdown. The Dow hit a fresh record high, while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq also advanced.
Gold surged to record levels as safe-haven demand picked up, treasury yields eased, and crude prices inched higher. The dollar remained steady. However, uncertainty around the U.S. budget standoff continues to weigh on sentiment, as a shutdown could delay key economic data and impact the Fed’s policy outlook.
Asian markets opened mixed on Wednesday, tracking Wall Street’s gains but remaining cautious over U.S. budget negotiations.
Japan: Nikkei fell 1.05%, and Topix dropped 1.52%.
South Korea: Kospi rose 0.68%, and Kosdaq gained 0.77%.
Australia: ASX 200 slipped 0.25% in early trade.
Gift Nifty suggests a flat opening for Indian equities. Nifty is expected to consolidate in the range of 24,500–24,850 in today’s session.
Market Performance – Previous Session
Indian equities ended largely unchanged on September 30, after a volatile and choppy trade driven by monthly F&O expiry.
Sensex: down 97.32 points (0.12%) at 80,267.62
Nifty: down 23.80 points (0.10%) at 24,611.10
This marked the eighth straight loss for Indian markets, with persistent foreign investor selling weighing on sentiment. Traders remained cautious ahead of the RBI policy outcome, where the MPC is widely expected to leave rates unchanged.
Sector-wise, PSU Banks, Metals, and Auto gained between 0.4%–2%, while Media and Realty indices declined over 1%. Midcap and small-cap indices closed flat.
Nifty Outlook – Short Term
On the daily chart, Nifty formed another bearish candle, showing persistent selling at higher levels but some buying near supports.
Key Support Zone: 24,500–24,400 (200-DMA & swing lows)
Resistance: 24,800; a decisive breakout could open the path toward 25,100–25,200.
Until then, the tone remains cautious, with recovery attempts likely to face selling pressure.
Intraday Levels
Nifty: Resistance at 24,750 & 24,820; Support at 24,580 & 24,500
Bank Nifty: Resistance at 54,850 & 55,120; Support at 54,080 & 53,800
