    What moved the market<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    • Global catalysts:<\/strong> Wall\u00a0Street notched fresh record highs after the U.S. Federal Reserve cut its benchmark rate by 25\u00a0bps and signalled a measured approach to future policy. Asian markets, including Nikkei, Topix and Australia\u2019s ASX\u00a0200, rallied, lifting sentiment. GIFT\u00a0Nifty futures were up over 120 points pre\u2011market, indicating a strong start.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Metals rally:<\/strong> Base\u2011metal prices rose on hopes of Chinese stimulus and supply tightness, propelling stocks like Hindustan\u00a0Zinc, Hindustan\u00a0Copper and Tata\u00a0Steel. This lifted the Nifty\u00a0Metal index and supported overall market momentum.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Rate\u2011cut expectations:<\/strong> The Fed\u2019s dovish tilt fuelled bets of easier liquidity, benefiting rate\u2011sensitive sectors such as realty and banking. Investors also anticipated that India\u2019s inflation data (due next week) would remain within the RBI\u2019s target, allowing the central bank to maintain its accommodative stance.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • FII flows and earnings optimism:<\/strong> Although FPIs have been net sellers in December, the pace of outflows slowed. Domestic investors continued to buy, and optimism around upcoming corporate earnings added support.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      Stocks to watch<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
        \n
      • Rama\u00a0Steel\u00a0Tubes:<\/strong> Approved the joint acquisition of UAE\u2011based Automech Group Holding for ~AED\u00a0296\u00a0million (\u20b9728\u00a0cr). The deal diversifies its engineering and industrial services footprint.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Kansai\u00a0Nerolac\u00a0Paints:<\/strong> Announced the sale of its entire 60\u00a0% stake in Sri\u00a0Lankan unit Kansai\u00a0Paints Lanka to Atire\u00a0Ltd, a Sri\u00a0Lankan\u2011based entity.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Piramal\u00a0Pharma:<\/strong> Received a Form\u00a0483 with four observations from the U.S.\u00a0FDA after an inspection at its Lexington, Kentucky facility.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • GAIL\u00a0(India):<\/strong> Disclosed a GST demand order of \u20b9143.08\u00a0cr from the Delhi tax authority; includes penalties.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Astra\u00a0Microwave:<\/strong> Secured a \u20b9171.32\u00a0cr contract from the India Meteorological Department to supply equipment for weather monitoring.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • NBCC\u00a0(India):<\/strong> Received project management consultancy orders worth \u20b9255\u00a0cr from Nalco and \u20b933.89\u00a0cr from SAIL\u00a0Bokaro.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Ashoka\u00a0Buildcon:<\/strong> Its joint venture with Adani won a \u20b918.2\u00a0bn contract for the Mithi River clean\u2011up project in Mumbai.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • DCM\u00a0Shriram & Bayer Crop\u00a0Science:<\/strong> Signed an MoU to collaborate on agri\u2011inputs, digital advisory services and sustainable farming initiatives.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        Global cues<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        The Fed\u2019s quarter\u2011point rate cut and a commitment to purchase additional Treasuries boosted risk assets globally. U.S. indices (Dow, S&P 500) closed at record levels. Asian indices rallied with Japan\u2019s Nikkei 225 up nearly 1 % and China\u2019s markets firming on policy\u2011support hopes. The dollar softened, crude oil stayed around $74 per barrel, and gold held gains near $2,060\/oz. GIFT Nifty futures signalled continued strength in Indian equities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Outlook and technical levels for the next session<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
          \n
        • Nifty\u00a050 support and resistance:<\/strong> Immediate support lies near 25,950\u201325,900<\/strong> (gap\u2011area and 10\u2011day moving average). Resistance is seen around 26,150\u201326,300<\/strong>, a zone where profit\u2011taking may emerge. Sustained trade above 26,050 could extend the rally toward 26,300; failure to hold 25,900 may trigger a dip toward 25,750.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Bank\u00a0Nifty:<\/strong> Support at 59,000<\/strong> and 58,700<\/strong>; resistance at 59,600<\/strong> and 59,800<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Expected market tone:<\/strong> The underlying trend remains positively biased<\/strong> due to strong global cues, but the market is in overbought territory after a sharp run\u2011up. Traders may witness intraday volatility ahead of macro data releases and weekend positions. A consolidation around the current levels with stock\u2011specific action in metal, power, and mid\u2011cap names is likely.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

          Overall, the market outlook for the next trading session is cautiously optimistic with positive momentum intact, provided global sentiment remains supportive and there is no adverse macro surprise.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
