Global Market Update 

Wall Street closed slightly lower on Monday as investors remained cautious ahead of a busy economic calendar later this week. Markets also weighed reports around potential Federal Reserve candidates and recent policymaker comments for cues on the future path of interest rates.

Key U.S. data due this week includes nonfarm payrolls for October and November, retail sales, business activity indicators, and inflation readings. Notably, October’s jobs report was delayed earlier due to the government shutdown.

Asian Markets

Asian equities opened marginally lower as investors reduced risk exposure ahead of key U.S. economic data that could influence interest-rate expectations. The Japanese yen strengthened during early trade.

Japanese equities declined, while Australian markets edged higher, tracking the second consecutive fall in U.S. equity benchmarks. S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 futures were also lower during early Asian hours on Tuesday.

In Japan, investor focus remains on currency movements ahead of an expected Bank of Japan rate hike on Friday. Policymakers continue to balance the need for accommodative borrowing costs against the inflationary impact of a weaker yen.

Gift Nifty Update

Gift Nifty indicates a flat start for Indian equities. For today’s session, the index is expected to trade within a 25,900–26,200 range.

Indian Market – Previous Session Recap

Indian equity benchmarks ended marginally lower in a volatile session on December 15. Persistent foreign institutional outflows and continued weakness in the rupee kept markets range-bound.

Investor sentiment remained cautious ahead of crucial U.S. data, including CPI inflation and employment numbers, which are expected to guide global liquidity trends and interest-rate expectations for 2026.

Sensex: Down 54.30 points (0.06%) at 85,213.36

Nifty: Slipped 19.65 points (0.08%) to 26,027.30

Sector Performance

Gainers: PSU Banks, Media, IT, FMCG, Consumer Durables (up 0.3%–1.8%)

Losers: Auto, Pharma, Telecom (down 0.4%–1%)

The midcap index ended flat, while small-cap stocks outperformed with modest gains of around 0.2%.

Nifty Short-Term Outlook

Nifty formed a bullish candle, indicating buying interest at lower levels. After a 2–3 session pullback, the index is now trading near a falling trendline from recent highs, which also coincides with the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement around 26,080.

A sustained move above this level could open the door for an upside towards 26,200–26,300 in the coming sessions. The index also rebounded from the 25,900 gap-up zone seen on Friday, and holding above this level keeps the near-term outlook constructive.

Key Support: 25,700–25,800

Expected Range: 25,700–26,300

Stock-specific action is likely to remain in focus in the near term.

Intraday Levels – Nifty

Resistance: 26,080 | 26,150

Support: 25,960 | 25,900

Bank Nifty – Intraday Levels

Resistance: 59,680 | 59,900

Support: 59,250 | 59,050
