Commenting on the outlook for Bank Nifty today, Om Mehra, Technical Analyst, SAMCO Securities said, “Bank Nifty closed at 49,291.90, up 0.48%. It is now above its 20-day and 50-day moving averages. The index closed above the 61.8% Fib retracement, which remains at 49,180, giving it a solid base. The immediate resistance is at 49,700, above which the index can take towards 50,200-50,350 levels. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) on the daily chart is yet to indicate a positive crossover, but once this occurs, we expect the bullish momentum to continue for further gains.”
Asked about the reasons for the rise in stocks on Dalal Street, Siddhartha Khemka, head of retail research at Motilal Oswal said, “Investors heaved a sigh of relief as confidence was boosted after two key allies expressed their support for forming a new government with the Bharatiya Janata Party. Global factors also contributed to today’s rise in stocks as the US Federal Reserve’s September meeting rekindled the possibility of a rate cut following a weaker than expected employment data. All eyes will be on the formation of the government this weekend and the RBI’s policy outcome and comments today.”
