Why are paint stocks falling?
— Antu Thomas, Senior Research Analyst at Geojit Financial Services
Investors continue to remain wary despite global markets trading in green due to drop in domestic investors confidence & FII selling. The market turned volatile waiting for the release of April US inflation data, which is expected to cool down marginally. Inflation will continue to be elevated but the chance of major reactions is low because it has been factored in by the markets. The major determinant for market direction would be the pace of decline in inflation in response to the Fed measures.
– Vinod Nair, Head of Research at Geojit Financial Services
Participants are closely eyeing the US inflation data for cues and we’ll see the reaction in early trades on Thursday. Though the Nifty index has rebounded after penetrating the crucial support zone of 16,000 for a brief, we believe banking holds the key to further rebound. Keeping all in mind, we recommend keeping a cautious stance and suggest preferring hedged positions.

Tech view by Rupak De, Senior technical analyst, LKP Sec
Nifty recovered smartly from the day’s low before closing with a marginal loss. On the lower end, it found support at 16,000 as it closed at 175 points off the day’s low. On the daily chart, a large lower wick indicates buying at the lower level. On the higher end, the Nifty is likely to move towards 16400. On the lower end, support is seen at 16,100/15,950.
Indices displayed extreme volatility today ahead of the CPI & IIP data this week. While we did see a sharp recovery in indices during afternoon trade, the market breadth was very weak with several stocks in the broader market taking a big knock-on selling pressure as the small-cap index lost 3% today.

- Infosys rose nearly 15 per cent in a year compared to 10 per cent rise seen in Nifty50 but has been under pressure so far in 2022, data showed.
