Indian equities staged a sharp rebound on Monday after the broad-based selling in the previous two trading sessions. Analysts expect the market to remain watchful, tracking global cues and macro-economic data. Defence and crude-linked stocks will remain in focus amidst ongoing Israel-Iran conflict , while monsoon-linked sectors like fertilizers, agro-chemicals, rural FMCG amongst others could be in momentum on expectations of above average rainfall.
STATE OF THE MARKETS
- Tech View: Currently, with investors awaiting the Fed’s follow-up commentary post the rate announcement, a steep directional move is not expected for now. However, a rally towards 25,350 looks highly probable once Nifty reclaims the 25,000 mark. On the downside, support is placed at 24,850.
- India VIX: India VIX, which is a measure of the fear in the markets, rose 1.6% to settle at 14.84 levels.
