Can Trade Optimism Drive Nifty Toward 26,000? | Street Verdict On TCS, HCL | Opening Bell Live
The Nifty 50 snapped its five-day losing streak on January 12, rising 0.4%, supported by strong buying interest at lower levels and positive cues from favourable comments on a potential trade deal by the U.S. Ambassador. The formation of a Piercing Line pattern has raised hopes of further upside, though experts caution that momentum indicators still need to confirm a sustained bullish trend. On the upside, the 25,950–26,000 zone remains a key resistance area, with a decisive breakout likely to strengthen the bulls’ grip. Until then, markets may continue to trade in a range-bound manner, with immediate support seen at 25,600, experts noted. Globally, Wall Street futures edged lower after the S&P 500 and Dow Jones closed at record highs overnight, as investors looked past concerns over the Fed’s independence and awaited key U.S. CPI inflation data. Asian markets traded higher, led by a sharp 3% rally in Japan’s Nikkei on hopes of snap elections, while GIFT Nifty signals a positive start for Indian equities. IT bellwether TCS kicked off the Q3 earnings season with a steady performance, as revenue and margins came in largely in line with expectations, though net profit declined nearly 12% due to a one-time impact. Meanwhile, HCL Technologies delivered a better-than-expected showing, beating estimates on most parameters and raising the lower end of its full-year revenue growth guidance to above 4%. The performance of both IT majors was impacted by the implementation of new labour codes, which weighed on costs during the quarter.
