Nifty’s Move Hinges On RBI Rate Decision; HUL, ITC Hotels In Focus| Opening Bell Live

Nifty’s Move Hinges On RBI Rate Decision; HUL, ITC Hotels In Focus| Opening Bell Live

The Nifty 50 snapped its four-day losing streak on December 4, gaining 0.2% to close above the previous day’s high and reclaim the 26,000 mark. The index also held firm above its 20-day EMA. Experts say as long as Nifty defends the 25,900 level, an upside toward 26,100–26,300 remains likely amid ongoing consolidation. A decisive drop below this zone, however, could open the door to 25,840 — a crucial support. Among stocks to watch: HUL and ITC Hotels. The focus, though, remains on the RBI’s policy decision today — with the Street expecting a 25-basis-point rate cut even as strong growth and a weak rupee could keep the central bank cautious. Catch Nandita Khemka in conversation with Moneycontrol’s Banking Editor Hamsini Karthik, Raja Venkatraman, Co-founder of NeoTrader, and market expert Ambareesh Baliga.

Live: RBI Policy Expectations| Rupee Slide, Strong GDP & Soft Inflation – Will MPC Cut Or Pause?

The Reserve Bank of India’s Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) will announce its interest rate decision on Friday, with the street sharply divided over the outcome. While industry hopes for a 25-basis-point cut amid benign inflation and a government focus on growth, others expect the central bank to stay cautious. The RBI had kept the repo rate unchanged at 5.5% during its previous meeting on October 1, marking a second consecutive pause after cutting rates by 100 basis points in the first half of 2025. However, the recent slide in the rupee may complicate the rate call.

Nifty Holds Key Support; Volatile Trade Likely on Sensex Expiry | Opening Bell Live

The Nifty 50 remained under pressure for the fourth straight session on December 3, slipping 0.2% amid persistent weakness in momentum indicators. However, the index managed to hold above its 20-day EMA (25,970) on a closing basis. Experts say a decisive move below these levels could strengthen the bears and drag the index toward 25,840 - last Wednesday’s low. On the upside, a rebound above 26,070 and 26,150 may offer short-term relief, though traders are advised to stay cautious. Global cues remain mixed, with the GIFT Nifty signaling a subdued start on Sensex expiry day. Among stocks in focus today: JSW Steel, IEX, and Pine Labs, while defence stocks could see action as Russian President Vladimir Putin begins his India visit.

The Nifty 50 extended its losing streak for a third straight session on December 2, slipping nearly 0.6% and closing below its 10-day EMA. Momentum indicators suggest further consolidation, though the broader higher high–higher low structure remains intact. Experts say as long as the index trades below 26,300 - a key resistance zone - the market may stay rangebound, with crucial support at 25,900–25,850. A breach below this could intensify selling pressure. Among stocks in focus: Sun Pharma, Maruti Suzuki, and HDFC AMC. On the primary market front, three IPOs — Meesho, Aequs, and Vidya Wires — open for subscription today. The three-day RBI MPC meeting kicks off amid a deeply divided Street on whether the central bank will cut rates, given strong growth data and a weakening rupee.

The Nifty 50 extended its consolidation phase for the third straight session, slipping 0.1% on December 1 after profit booking erased about 150 points from its record high of 26,326. While momentum indicators signal near-term caution, the broader trend remains positive, with the index maintaining its higher high–higher low structure on larger timeframes. Experts expect further consolidation with immediate support at 26,100–26,000 and a crucial floor at 25,900. On the upside, 26,300 remains a key resistance zone -  a decisive close above this level could trigger a sharp rally. Globally, markets are trading mixed - Wall Street ended on a soft note, while most Asian markets opened with modest gains. However, the GIFT Nifty is hinting at a negative start for Indian equities.

Live: Will bulls take Nifty to fresh lifetime highs today? | Opening Bell

Nifty kicked off the December series with a strong rebound, closing above the key 26,120 trigger level and recovering all losses from the past three sessions. With FIIs still heavily net short, the move raises the possibility of further short covering, especially as the bulls now eye the next upside markers at 26,246 and 26,277. Financials and NBFCs have been the key drivers of this uptrend from the 24,500 zone, with Nifty Bank inching closer to the 60,000 mark. While broader markets saw a relief rally, dealing rooms noted that participation remained relatively low. Thursday’s Sensex monthly expiry will be a key factor for market direction, even as global cues are expected to stay muted due to the Thanksgiving holiday-led closures in the US. This morning, global cues were positive. US markets edged higher overnight, extending gains to fourth straight day. Asian markets, meanwhile, started the day higher.

Nifty slipped below 26,000 amid profit booking as short-term sentiment turned fragile. The market opened firm but selling built through the day, with the index dropping 230 points from the intraday high. Broader markets weakened ahead of expiry, and while IT held up initially, late-session selling hit most sectors. SBI Life, TechM and Eicher showed some resilience, but realty, metals and durables led the declines. Midcap and smallcap indices remained under pressure, with the smallcap index slipping below its 200-day EMA. Nifty’s breakout attempt was also hurt by delays in the India-US trade agreement, leaving markets cautious ahead of the GDP data. This morning, global cues were positive.

The Nifty 50 delivered a strong session on November 20, breaking past the key double-top resistance at 26,100 and moving closer to its lifetime high of 26,277. With momentum strengthening, experts believe the index could hit a fresh record soon—provided it holds 26,100 as immediate support. On the upside, 26,500 is the next level to watch, while crucial support sits near 25,800. Globally, sentiment remains fragile. Wall Street ended sharply lower after a steep sell-off in major AI names, dragging the Nasdaq and S&P to their lowest close since September. The VIX surged to its highest level since April.
