Global markets delivered mixed signals as investors remained cautious amid geopolitical developments and concerns about stagflation. U.S. equities lost momentum during the latest session, while Asian markets opened slightly higher. In India, benchmark indices ended the previous session on a strong note, and the market is expected to open with a flat to slightly negative bias today.
U.S. stock markets showed limited movement as hopes for a quick resolution to geopolitical tensions faded. Concerns about stagflation also weighed on sentiment. The Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 500 closed slightly lower, while the Nasdaq Composite remained largely flat.
Market participants closely monitored developments related to the Middle East situation after reports suggested possible Iranian mining activity in the Strait of Hormuz. At the same time, oil prices remained elevated and U.S. Treasury yields showed mixed movement, reflecting cautious investor sentiment.
In Asia, markets opened higher despite weak cues from Wall Street. The gains were supported by a slight decline in oil prices and steady investor activity across regional markets.
For the Indian market, early indicators suggest a cautious start to the trading session. GIFT Nifty points to a flat to slightly negative opening. The Nifty index is expected to trade within a range of 24,000 to 24,500 during the day.
Investors may continue to track global cues, crude oil movements, and geopolitical developments as key factors influencing market direction.
Indian benchmark indices ended the previous trading session on a strong note. The Nifty managed to hold above the 24,250 level despite experiencing volatility during the session due to the weekly expiry.
In the latter half of the session, the market staged a recovery and closed higher. Sentiment improved as expectations grew that geopolitical tensions might ease after signals that military operations in Iran could be nearing an end. This also contributed to a decline in crude oil prices.
At the close:
The Sensex gained 639.82 points, or 0.82%, to settle at 78,205.98.
The Nifty advanced 233.55 points, or 0.97%, to close at 24,261.60.
Most sectoral indices ended the session in positive territory.
Auto stocks led the gains with a rise of around 3%.
Consumer Durables followed with gains of about 2.6%.
PSU Banks also performed well, advancing roughly 2.2%.
However, IT and Oil & Gas sectors ended the session in the red.
In the broader market, buying interest remained strong:
The Nifty Midcap index rose about 1.6%.
Small-cap indices gained close to 2%.
From a technical perspective, the Nifty index formed a doji candle with a long lower shadow for the second consecutive session. This pattern indicates strong buying interest near the 100-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA).
On the daily chart, the index has also formed a higher high and higher low, along with a partial recovery of the previous session’s gap. These signals suggest that buying interest is emerging at lower levels.
The index recently bounced from the 23,700–24,000 support zone, which is considered an important technical level. This region represents the confluence of the 100-week EMA, historically a strong support level, and a long-term trendline connecting the calendar year 2023 and 2025 lows.
Looking ahead, the Nifty may consolidate within the 23,700 to 24,500 range as the market attempts to form a base. Daily oscillators currently remain in oversold territory, indicating the possibility of a pullback.
However, if the index breaks below the 23,700 level, the decline could extend towards the 23,300–23,200 zone.

Resistance: 24,410 and 24,500

Bank Nifty

Support: 56,510 and 56,250
