The domestic market rose slowly after two days of selling and a dovish comment from the Fed chairman on interest rates and considering an end to quantitative tightening boosted sentiment in the global market, said Vinod Nair, head of research at Geojit Investments.
“US 10-year yields fell while the rupee rose, indicating a momentum shift from financials to emerging markets like India, which could follow the domestic market trajectory in the short to medium term. Real estate outperformed on the back of an easing of the interest rate cycle and attractive valuation, while positive global cues supported IT and Metals indices,” Nair said.

Technical view
Technically, the Nifty looks set to retest the trendline hurdle near 25,450 and a decisive break above this level could propel the index towards 25,650 and beyond, said Ajit Mishra, SVP, Research at Religare Broking.
“We maintain a bullish bias and continue to advocate a ‘buy on dips’ approach as long as the index remains above the 25,000 support zone. Sector rotation is currently in favor of banking, metals and auto, while defensive sectors such as FMCG and pharmaceuticals may continue to underperform in the near term, so participants should adjust their positions accordingly,” said Mishra.
