Commodities:
Spot gold fell 0.6% to $4,058.29 per ounce.
Brent crude futures fell 13 cents, or 0.2%, to close at $63.38 a barrel.
General Trends:
Tech conglomerate SoftBank plunged more than 10% Friday amid losses across the region, after U.S. tech stocks lost ground and investors’ hopes dimmed of a December rate cut by the Federal Reserve.
Sector Specific Indicators:
Japan’s Nikkei 225 tumbled 1.57% at the open, while the Topix index lost 0.72%.
South Korea’s Kospi index plunged 4.09%, and the small-cap Kosdaq retreated 3.01%.
Market in the Previous Session:
Nifty opened on a gap-up and continued to trade with a positive bias. The index touched an intraday high of 26,246, coming just 30 points away from a new milestone.
Progress in India–US trade deal negotiations, which have now reached an advanced stage, boosted investor confidence, while marginal FII inflows also supported sentiment.
At close, the Sensex was up 446 points or 0.52% at 85,632.68, and the Nifty was up 139 points or 0.54% at 26,192.15.
On the sector front, major contributions came from Oil & Gas, Auto, Chemicals and Private Banks, whereas laggards were seen in Nifty Media, PSU Bank and Realty.
Broader indices underperformed the main indices, with Nifty Midcap marginally up by 0.02%, while Small-cap declined by 0.05%.
Nifty Short-Term Outlook:
On the daily chart, Nifty has formed a bullish candle characterized by a higher high and higher low, indicating sustained upward momentum. In line with our expectations, the index has moved higher and is presently poised to register a fresh all-time high.
We anticipate the index to maintain its positive bias as it breaks new highs, targeting the 26,500 level in the near term. The immediate support zone is placed between 26,000-25,900, providing a key buying opportunity on any dips.
While short-term support lies in the 25,600-25,700 range, being the confluence of the recent breakout area and the 20-day EMA. Holding above this support will keep the overall bullish bias.
Intraday Levels:
Nifty: Intraday resistance is at 26,277, followed by 26,350 levels. Conversely, downside support is located at 26,090, followed by 26,000.
Bank Nifty: Intraday resistance is positioned at 59,500, followed by 59,770, while downside support is found at 59,080, followed by 58,850.
Nifty:
The highest call OI is placed at 26,500, acting as a strong resistance zone, while the highest put OI at 26,000 reinforces it as a key support.
A noticeable straddle build-up at 26,200 signals that the level remains pivotal for short-term direction.
In the previous session, put writers were notably aggressive between 26,000–26,200, strengthening the demand zone. Meanwhile, substantial call unwinding at 26,000 suggests call writers were trapped as the index moved higher, reflecting a shift in sentiment.
Overall, 26,000 remains a critical support, while 26,500 stands as a firm resistance unless aggressive call unwinding emerges at higher strikes.
Bank Nifty:
Bank Nifty also reflects a defined structure with the highest call OI at 60,000 and highest put OI at 58,000, marking the broader trading band.
Put writers turned aggressive in the 59,300–59,500 zone during the previous session, showcasing confidence in defending this area.
On the other hand, notable call unwinding at 58,500 and 59,000 indicates ITM call writers being squeezed out as the index pushed higher, tilting the bias slightly bullish.
Given the current data, 59,000 acts as a strong immediate support, while 60,000 remains the major resistance and a decisive level for any breakout attempt.
Performance Overview:
The S&P 500 slumped on Thursday, after giving up early gains as the rally in Nvidia faded on fresh concerns that AI stock valuations are running too hot at a time when hopes for a December rate cut continue to ease.
Minutes from the central bank’s October meeting, released on Wednesday, showed policymakers divided over future action, and these numbers will offer impetus to both camps, creating more uncertainty ahead of the December meeting.
Sector-specific indicator:
The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 386 points, or 0.8%, the S&P 500 index fell 1.6% NASDAQ Composite slipped 2.2%.
Nvidia gave up gains to close 3% lower despite good numbers as fears about overstretched valuations resurfaced.
Economic indicator:
The U.S. economy added more jobs than anticipated in September, according to data released earlier Thursday, but a fall in the numbers of payrolls in August and a rise in the overall unemployment rate pointed to ongoing weakness in the U.S. labor market.
The data aren’t likely to convince hawkish fed members to back a rate cut in December just as recent Fed speak continued to showing a growing number of concerns stalling inflation.
