Nifty50
On the daily charts, we can observe that the Nifty has faced resistance from the zone of 25,100 – 25,150 where the hourly upper Bollinger band and the 61.82% Fibonacci retracement level is placed.

The structure suggests rangebound price action as we can observe contraction of Bollinger bands which points towards rangebound price action.

Stock Market Comment: 'Sentiment remains cautious due to slowdown in China, ahead of US inflation'

The domestic market experienced a minor consolidation, in line with Asian peers, due to correction of commodity prices like crude, which has collapsed to $70.

Market sentiment remained cautious due to the slowdown in the Chinese economy. Investors await the release of the US CPI and domestic inflation data. 

It is anticipated that US inflation will have an uptick in monthly data, while domestic inflation is expected to remain stable. Additionally, this muted trend was influenced by the BoJ’s indication of a potential rate hike if inflation remains elevated.
