Stock Market Highlights LIVE Updates: Nifty has fallen below the 21-EMA, indicating a rise in bearish bets
Nifty slipped sharply following the formation of a Harami pattern on the daily timeframe. The index has fallen below the 21-EMA, indicating a rise in bearish bets in the market. Additionally, the indicator is in a bearish crossover, further supporting the negative sentiment.
The short-term outlook remains weak, with the potential for a decline towards 24,200, where an initial round of support is expected. A meaningful recovery might be seen if Nifty does not break decisively below 24,200.

Stock Market Highlights LIVE Updates: A record-high trade deficit is exacerbating the pressure on markets
Widespread pessimism prevails across all sectors ahead of key policy decisions from the US Fed, BoJ, and BoE. While the market has already factored in a 25bps cut from the US Fed, it remains vigilant for any hawkish signals. The BoJ and BoE are largely expected to maintain their current rates for the year. Concurrently, the INR has depreciated to an all-time low, and a record-high trade deficit is exacerbating the pressure. FII outflows persist due to rising US bond yields and a strengthening dollar, further contributing to the prevailing pessimism.
