Below the Quote on Market Wrap 19th December 2025 from Mr. Ajit Mishra – SVP, Research, Religare Broking Ltd 

"Markets rebounded after the recent decline and gained over 0.5%, tracking favorable global cues. Following a gap-up start, the Nifty moved within a narrow range for most of the session before settling at 25,966.40. Sectoral participation was largely positive, with realty, auto and energy emerging as the top gainers. The broader markets also staged a strong recovery, with both midcap and smallcap indices advancing by over a percent each.

The rebound was supported by positive global cues, a recovery in the rupee and a pause in foreign outflows, which helped ease selling pressure and lifted sentiment across sectors. In addition, favourable indications for the IT sector, following Accenture’s numbers, further boosted overall market confidence.

From a technical standpoint, the Nifty has once again reclaimed its short-term moving average, the 20-DEMA, around the 25,950 level. However, sustainability above this zone is essential for the index to move toward the 26,050–26,200 range. In the current setup, a stock-specific trading approach remains advisable, with preference for sectors showing relatively higher strength such as banking, IT, auto and metals, while remaining selective in other segments."
