  • As discussed yesterday, market behaviour remained on expected lines as buying interest pushed Nifty up to 24885.5.
  • A bearish candle with an upper wick on the daily chart indicates selling pressure at higher levels. If selling persists, a decisive breakdown of 24721 may drag Nifty to 24670–24620, with extended downside possible up to 24568.
  • On the upside, 24825–24877 will act as immediate resistance. A breakout above these levels could lift Nifty towards 24927–24977.

  • Macros
  • 1.Dollar index @ 97.585
  • 2.Vix @ 15.27 (+0.09%)
  • 3.Brent crude @ 66
  • 4.U.S. 10 years bond yield @ 4.058
  • Note: The focus this week is on U.S. CPI inflation data for August, expected at 2.9% vs 2.7% in July, as per the Labor Department’s Bureau of Labor Statistics. PPI inflation data is also due. While these numbers may not impact the Fed’s September rate decision, they could influence its stance on future easing. The Fed has cautioned that Trump’s tariffs pose inflationary risks that may delay further cuts.
  • On the commodities front, crude oil is firm as the U.S. and EU prepare more sanctions on Russia. A weak dollar and the near-certain September rate cut have fueled gains in bullion, including gold, silver, and platinum.
  • For Indian equities, the tug of war between bulls and bears continues, requiring caution.
