Expert View: Focus is now on RBI rate guidance and liquidity management

"Benchmark indices continued to demonstrate resilience amidst positive global sentiment. Investors are now focusing on potential growth drivers, assuming that weak economic data has already been reflected in the recent lacklustre corporate earnings. The immediate attention is expected to remain on the RBI's interest rate guidance and liquidity management. Banking stocks experienced the highest gains due to their interest rate sensitivity, while metal stocks benefited from increased import duties and favourable manufacturing data from China."

Expert View: Nifty may test 24,600 - 24,700 on the upside

"Nifty witnessed another day of bullishness as the index moved above the 38.20% Fibonacci retracement level of the previous decline from 26,277 to 23,263. Additionally, the index has broken out of the recent consolidation phase on the daily chart, indicating a rise in bullish sentiment. Furthermore, Nifty has been sustaining above the critical 21-day exponential moving average (21EMA), reinforcing optimism. The sentiment is likely to remain in favor of the bulls as long as the index sustains above 24,400, with the potential to test levels of 24,600–24,700. On the downside, a fall below 24,400 could trigger a correction towards 24,150."
