Here’s how analysts read the market pulse:
Analysts expect the market to witness a steady uptrend, supported by improving institutional inflows, prospects of a US-India trade deal, and sectoral tailwinds from RBI’s liquidity measures and an above-average monsoon forecast.
US markets
Wall Street stocks finished at fresh records Friday as markets cheered the latest progress in US-China trade negotiations, completing a comeback from a spring swoon due to President Donald Trump’s tariffs.
European Markets
European stocks closed at an over one-week high on Friday, fuelled by a rally in automakers, as investors took more risks on hopes for a truce in the US-China trade spat.
Tech View
A buy-on-dips strategy appears more appropriate at current levels, following the sharp rise over the past few days. On the downside, support is placed at 25,500; a break below this level could lead to consolidation.
