Nifty Outlook

Markets ended lower amid excessive volatility, in continuation to the prevailing consolidation phase. Initially, the benchmark opened firm, tracking upbeat global cues however surge in bond yields impacted sentiment as the day progressed. Consequently, Nifty retraced almost 380 points from the day’s high and ended with losses of nearly 1% at 15,031 levels. The broader indices too witnessed profit-taking but managed to outperform the benchmark. Amongst the sectors, except Oil & Gas and Consumer Durables which ended higher, all the other indices ended with losses wherein Auto, Banking and Realty were the top losers.

Markets will react to the macroeconomic data viz. IIP and CPI inflation on Monday. Besides, global cues and COVID-19 related updates will remain in focus. Amid all, we reiterate our cautious view on markets until we see either side's decisive break in Nifty(14,900-15,300 range) and suggest keeping a check on leveraged positions.
