GIFT Nifty indicated that Indian equity indices BSE Sensex and NSE Nifty 50 may see a positive opening on Wednesday. Here’s a look at the key stocks to watch in trade.

GIFT Nifty ended 50 points or 0.20% up at 24,575 indicating a positive opening for domestic indices NSE Nifty 50 and BSE Sensex on Wednesday. Previously, on Tuesday, the NSE Nifty 50 ended down by 309 points or 1.25% to settle at 24,472.10 while the BSE Sensex fell 930.56 points or 1.15% to 80,220.72.

“The markets continued their downward trend, losing over a percent in an ongoing corrective phase. After a flat opening, Nifty gradually declined and approached a crucial support level at the 100-day exponential moving average (DEMA). The selling pressure was broad-based, with realty, metal, and auto sectors among the worst affected. Notably, the midcap and smallcap segments saw a sharp decline, shedding between 2.75% and 3.65%,” said Ajit Mishra – SVP, Research, Religare Broking.

Mishra also added that Nifty has now corrected by around 7% from its record high, reaching the critical moving average support at the 100 DEMA i.e. 24,485 level. The outlook suggests further downside, particularly in the midcap and smallcap spaces. On the index front, the next major support is around 24,000, with potential resistance between 24,700 and 25,000 in case of a rebound. We recommend adjusting trades accordingly and advise against adding to losing positions.
