Stock Market Today: The benchmark Nifty=50 Index lost more than 1% to end at 24,888.20 on an expiry day, when multiple global cues and rising crude prices impacted the markets. The Bank Nifty, at 56,082.56, was down 0.67%, and most sectors, led by realty, auto, ended in the red. The broader indices also saw an early 2% correction.
Trade Setup for Friday
Immediate support for the Nifty is now seen at 24,750, followed by 24,500. On the higher side, the previous support band of 25,000-25,050 could now interchange its role as a resistance band, indicating that any bounce attempts might face selling pressure around these levels, as per Nandish Shah, Deputy Vice President at HDFC Securities.
The revised support would move higher to the previous all-time high of 56,100 followed by 55,500 levels, while the pivot resistance is placed at 57,700 levels as per Vikas Jain, Head of Research at Reliance Securities
Global Markets and outlook
The US dollar index slipped to a seven-week low following softer-than-expected US inflation data that could support the case for a Federal rate cut. Meanwhile, in a positive development on the domestic front, India’s retail inflation cooled to 2.82% (vs expected 3%) in May- its lowest level in over six years. Overall, we expect the market to remain in a consolidation mode, tracking global market cues and developments on the US-India trade deal, said Siddhartha Khemka, Head – Research, Wealth Management, Motilal Oswal Financial Services Ltd. Arvind Fashions Ltd.
Israel-Iran conflict
An Israeli military official has confirmed the attack, saying that it has targeted “dozens” of sites across Iran, Reuters reported. The Israeli military said it has launched a preemptive strike against Iran’s nuclear program.
According to a report by Axios, Israel’s defence minister declared a state of emergency throughout Israel. Iran had previously vowed to respond to any attack.
