Sensex and Nifty were up from their lows and seen trimming losses, but still in the red. Sensex was above 58,500 while Nifty 50 was holding above 17,400.
The market has closed on a strong note yesterday and hence, we may see further extension of this as well; but we still do not have the conviction of it moving beyond the higher boundary of 17700 in this leg. Let’s see how things shape up going ahead and if any such complete shift of sentiments has to happen, the banking space once again becomes the deciding factor. For the coming session, 17300 followed by 17200 are to be seen as immediate supports. Although individual stocks are providing excellent opportunity on the long side, now it’s time to apply some brakes on the aggressive approach and should ideally look to book timely profits in existing positions. Next couple of sessions would really be interesting to watch, because all key indices are now trading around the crucial levels," said Sameet Chavan (Chief Analyst-Technical and Derivatives, Angel One.

We have a status quo RBI policy, yet again. The MPC in the latest monetary policy meeting kept all rates unchanged and pledged to maintain its accommodative policy stance for as long as necessary. MPC also increased the quantum of existing VRRR (variable rate reverse repo) operations to Rs7.5 lakh crore by December end in a continuing effort to nudge the overnight rates higher towards repo rate. As per MPC, the economic recovery, even though gaining traction, is not conclusively durable and warrants further policy support. As a result, its ‘overarching priority’ for now is to broaden the growth impulses. The MPC regarded the uncertainty around the new Covid variant and the headwinds from faster normalization of monetary policy in advanced economies as the key risks to the domestic outlook.
