Stock Market Comment: 'Nifty continues to consolidate near its all-time high'

Nifty continues to consolidate near its all-time high, where a trendline resistance is observed. A breakout from the recent range-bound pattern could provide a clear direction for the Nifty. Immediate support is at 25,350, and a fall below this level might lead to the unwinding of put option writing positions, potentially triggering a correction toward 25,000. On the upside, resistance is seen at 25,500, and a strong upward move may be expected if Nifty breaks above this level.

Stock Market Comment: 'Indian markets consolidate ahead of US Fed'

The Indian market exhibited a subtle positive momentum, driven by the anticipation of a rate cut cycle by the US FED. Although a 25-bps cut is largely factored in, the market remains attuned to the FED's comments on the health of the economy and the future trajectory of rate cuts. Further, robust institutional flows continued to bolster the domestic market. While the overall trend remained positive, there was notable buying interest in large-cap stocks, particularly in sectors such as IT, FMCG, and private banks.
