The Nifty 50 slipped 0.2% on January 13, giving up a part of the previous session’s gains. While the index negated the lower high–lower low pattern seen over the past five sessions, it continues to trade below its short- and medium-term moving averages, with momentum indicators still signalling caution. Experts believe the market is likely to remain in a consolidation phase unless the Nifty decisively breaks above the 25,900–26,000 resistance zone. A sustained move above this level could open the door for a rally toward 26,200–26,300, while on the downside, immediate support is seen at 25,600, followed by a key level at 25,450. Globally, Wall Street retreated from record highs, with the S&P 500 drifting lower, weighed down by banking stocks. Asian markets opened mixed, though Japan’s Nikkei scaled a fresh record, crossing the 54,000 mark for the first time. Back home, GIFT Nifty signals a sluggish start for Dalal Street. In commodities, crude oil surged to a 12-week high amid escalating geopolitical risks and supply disruption concerns. Gold and silver touched fresh record highs, as U.S. inflation data strengthened expectations of future Federal Reserve rate cuts. On the earnings front, IT major Infosys is set to report its Q3 results today. All eyes will be on guidance. Also watch out for Groww as it reports earnings today.

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.

Markets saw a sharp sell-off as the Nifty slipped below key technical supports, breaking below its 21-day and 50-day moving averages near the 26,000 mark. A brief intraday rebound failed to hold, with the index ending near the day’s lows. The sell-off wiped out over ₹8 lakh crore of investor wealth in a single session and was broad-based, with all sectoral indices closing in the red. Metal stocks led the losses, while even Bank Nifty came under pressure. Heavyweights such as Reliance Industries, HDFC Bank and IT majors dragged the benchmark, as continued uncertainty over India–US trade weighed on export-oriented stocks. This morning, global cues were mixed. US markets ended mixed overnight ahead of key jobs data and Supreme Court ruling assessing the legality of Trump's tariffs. Asian markets too started mixed as China saw fastest pace of inflation in nearly 3 years in December.

The Nifty50 extended its losing streak to a third straight session but managed to recover from the day’s lows to close near 26,140, holding on to the crucial 26,100 support. After a weak start and a volatile session marked by a tussle between buyers and sellers, a late rebound helped pare losses. IT, consumer durables and pharma stocks led the gains, while auto, oil & gas and realty stocks remained under pressure. Broader markets outperformed, with midcap and smallcap indices rising around 0.4%, as global cues and upcoming US jobs data stayed in focus. This morning, global cues were largely lower. US markets ended on a weak note, with Dow and S&P 500 retreating from record highs. Meanwhile, Asian markets were mixed this morning.

The Nifty struggled to hold above the 26,300 mark as profit booking capped gains despite fresh highs, with heavyweights like Reliance, HDFC Bank and IT stocks dragging the index lower. While Q3 business updates have been largely robust across banks and FMCG, including continued double-digit loan growth at major lenders, sentiment remained cautious amid geopolitical risks, trade deal uncertainty and persistent FII selling. This morning, global cues were mixed. US markets ended higher overnight with Dow hitting fresh record highs after US ousted Venezuelan President Maduro. Asian markets also opened mixed this morning led by defence stocks.

The Nifty scaled a fresh all-time high, closing above the 26,300 mark after breaking a key resistance zone and logging its third straight session of gains. The rally was led by realty, PSU banks and metal stocks, while the broader market continued to outperform, with the midcap index hitting a record high and smallcaps extending gains. FMCG was the only sector to end in the red. On the policy and macro front, the government cleared electronics manufacturing proposals worth Rs 41,800 crore, while December GST collections rose 6.1% year-on-year. Meanwhile, geopolitical risks resurfaced after US strikes on Venezuela, keeping global markets cautious despite Wall Street’s strong run. This morning, global cues were mixed. US futures were steady after a mixed close on Friday while Asian markets were largely positive.

The benchmark Nifty 50 ended the monthly F&O expiry session flat with a negative bias on December 30, extending its losing streak to a fourth consecutive day. Technical and momentum indicators remain bearish; however, the index’s recovery toward the psychological 26,000 mark in the latter half of the session and the formation of a neutral pattern near key support levels after the recent decline have raised hopes of a potential bounce in the coming sessions. If that plays out, the index could move toward the 26,100–26,300 zone. On the flip side, failure to sustain a rebound may see the Nifty slip toward the 25,800–25,700 support zone, experts said. On the final trading day of 2025, global cues remain mixed, though the GIFT Nifty is signalling a mildly positive start.

The Nifty index spent the session moving within a tight 100-point band, reflecting a highly volatile trading day. It repeatedly tried to climb back above the 26,000 mark but struggled to hold momentum, swinging between minor advances and declines throughout the day. Meanwhile, Nifty Bank showed notable resilience, bouncing back more than 350 points from its intraday lows, helping support overall market sentiment despite the broader choppiness.

The Nifty 50 remained under pressure for the third consecutive session, slipping 0.4 percent on December 29 ahead of the monthly F&O expiry due on December 30. The index broke below short-term moving averages, with momentum indicators turning bearish. Immediate support is seen at the 50-day EMA around 25,830, followed by a key support zone at 25,726. A decisive break below this level could negate the higher-high higher-low structure and hand control to the bears. However, a sustained hold and rebound above these levels could revive the uptrend and open the door toward 26,300, experts said. Global cues remain subdued on the penultimate trading day of 2025, with the GIFT Nifty signalling another weak start. What are the key levels and outlook for the Nifty as we head into 2026, and which are the top stock bets? Meanwhile, 2025 has been a record year for IPOs, with 2026 expected to be even bigger.
