However, it posted a handsome recovery in the last hour and came off-lows to close 0.3% higher. Volume was lower than the previous session.
Broader markets outperformed as Midcap and Smallcap indices gained 0.6% and 0.8%, respectively. Nifty is trading 9.0% and 25.3% above its 50- and 200-DMA.
On the sectoral front, Nifty Media advanced the most, followed by Nifty Metal and PSU Bank, which gained 1.4% and 1.8% for the day. On the flip side, Nifty Realty and Auto declined in the range of 1.0–1.1%.
Market breadth was skewed toward advancers. Of 2,233 stocks traded, 1,204 stocks advanced, 697 declined, and the remaining stocks remained unchanged.
With leadership broadening and indices above relevant intermediate term-moving averages, we will continue to look for leadership-quality growth names to form entry points. After a strong rally, pullback/consolidation (if any) is a constructive sign if Nifty holds its 21-DMA.
It is advised to closely review the existing positions and book partial profits in stocks that are extended from their moving averages. On the flip side, tracking distribution days is crucial.
Accumulation of distribution days can halt the uptrend. Key News Retail inflation for November decreased to 6.93% from 7.61% a month ago.
Indian Bank raised Rs 560 crore by issuing Basel-III compliant bonds on a private placement basis. The coupon on the bond is 8.44% per annum, payable annually.
