Global market cues
On Wall Street, Dow Jones ended 0.23 per cent up, tech-heavy Nasdaq surged 0.35 per cent whereas S&P 500 went up 0.36 per cent. European stock markets also traded higher Wednesday, rebounding strongly with investors seeking bargains after the previous session’s slump on increasing recession fears. An end to strike by Norwegian oil and gas workers eased worries of an energy supply crunch. However, Asian stocks mostly slipped on Wednesday as investors’ fears deepened that the continent is leading the world into recession. The surge in COVID-19 infections in China also hurt market sentiment as it reignited worries about potential lockdowns.
Nifty technical outlook
“Nifty has risen well on July 06. A move above 16026 could result in more upsides while 15785 could be near-term support,” said Deepak Jasani, Head of Retail Research at HDFC Securities.
Expecting pullback move in Nifty 50 index, Ruchit Jain, Lead Research at 5paisa.com said, “Recently, we have seen a high inverse correlation in Dollar Index and Nifty. However, the recent upside move in the Dollar Index has not seen any correction or new lows in the Nifty and this should be seen as a positive divergence. This short term divergence could result in more pullback move in the index as traders with short positions will look to cover up.”
“The formation of a long bull candle on Wednesday above the important hurdle of 15,850 to15,900 levels indicates the possibility of a sharp upside breakout. The said area of 15,800 to 15,900 has been a significant value area in the past and the recent downside breakout has resulted in the formation of the long bear candle (16th June). Hence, a sustainable move above 15950 levels could mean a sharp upside for the market ahead,” said Nagaraj Shetti, Technical Research Analyst at HDFC Securities.
Nifty Bank technical outlook
“The important pivot level, which will act as crucial support for the index, is placed at 33,800 mark, followed by 33,600 mark. On the upside, key resistance levels are placed at 34,750 and 34,950 marks,” said Chinmay Barve, Head — Technical and Derivatives Research at Profitmart Securities.
