Weekly Sectoral Outlook 09th March 2026 by GEPL Capital Ltd
NIFTY 50 : 24450 weekly change (-2.89%)

Inference & Expectations
* The index continues to face selling pressure on every rise, marking the fourth consecutive week of a lower high–lower low formation, indicating a short-term downtrend. The index is also trading below its 50-week EMA, reflecting a cautious sentiment among market participants. The MACD indicator remains in negative territory with a falling histogram, suggesting weak upside momentum. Additionally, Brent crude near $93 per barrel remains a concern for equities as it adds to macro headwinds. From a medium-term perspective, the 24300–23500 zone is likely to act as a key demand area, where buying interest may emerge.
* Considering the ongoing global volatility, investors may consider a diversified ETF strategy through instruments such as CPSEETF, MODEFENCE, BankBees, AutoBees, HealthBees, and NiftyBees to gain broader market exposure while managing risk.
* For Traders: Short positions may be considered below 24300. Then index holds downside potential towards 24000 and 23800. To manage risk effectively, a stop-loss should be placed at 24850 on a closing basis.
* For Investors: Investors can consider accumulating at 24000 - 23500 zone. The target for this investment is set at 28600 level, offering significant upside potential.
