Outlook for November 11

Markets began the week on a positive note amid optimistic global cues. Following a firm start, the Nifty built on early momentum, supported by strength in select heavyweights across sectors. However, a pullback in the final hour trimmed part of the gains, and the index eventually settled at 25,574.35. Sector-wise, a rebound in IT and pharma, coupled with strength in metal and energy stocks fueled the up move, whereas realty and FMCG ended slightly lower. The broader indices moved largely in tandem, wherein midcap and smallcap indices advanced in the range of 0.47%–0.35% respectively.

The move was supported by improved global sentiment, as progress toward ending the U.S. government shutdown lifted investor confidence. Moreover, FIIs turning net buyers after six consecutive sessions of selling, along with global brokerage Goldman Sachs upgrading India to 'Overweight' from 'Neutral', further added to the positive sentiment.

Nifty registered a close tag below its 20-day EMA i.e. around 25587, which does not favour bulls. Technically, as long as the index holds above the 25,300 mark, a phase of consolidation at current levels cannot be ruled out. However, a decisive breach below this support could trigger profit-taking, dragging the index towards the 25,150–25,050 zone. On the upside, a sustained move above 25,600 would be essential for a further rally towards the 25,800–26,000 region. Participants are advised to adopt a stock-specific approach, accumulate quality stocks on dips, and keep selective shorts as a hedge.

Today, the Indian markets bounced back strongly on Monday, ending a three day losing streak with broad buying across most sectors. The Sensex jumped 319 points to 83,535, and the Nifty 50 gained 82 points to close at 25,574, a clear turnaround after recent weakness.

The rebound came after renewed optimism over a possible end to the 40 day US government shutdown. Over the weekend, the US Senate advanced a funding proposal with bipartisan support, raising hopes that the deadlock might soon end. This improved sentiment across global markets like Japan’s Nikkei rose 1.3%, Hong Kong’s Hang Seng gained 1.6%, and South Korea’s Kospi jumped 3%. Indian equities followed suit, supported by stronger global cues.

IT stocks led the rally, with the Nifty IT index climbing 1.62% as shares of Infosys, TCS, HCL Tech, and Wipro rose up to 2.5%. Banking and metal stocks also posted healthy gains, while overall market breadth stayed positive.

Key drivers of the rally are hopes of a US government shutdown resolution lifted global risk sentiment, strong foreign inflows, with FIIs buying ₹4,581 crore worth of equities on November 7, and Solid Q2 results from select companies boosted confidence.

We expect some consolidation in the near term as we wait for key macro data such as CPI on November 12, M3 money supply, and WPI on November 14. The focus remains on large cap stocks with steady earnings momentum, particularly in IT, banking, and pharma. Results from companies like Bajaj Finance, ONGC, and Vodafone Idea will likely guide the next market move.
