📊📑 Important Observations and Market Sentiments: Editor Special

  • The domestic market failed to hold early gains, with a late sell-off reflecting a “buy-on-dips, sell-on-rallies” strategy amid investor caution. Auto and ancillary stocks rallied on demand recovery expectations post-GST 2.0 cuts (effective September 22), while IT weakened due to global uncertainties.

  • Globally, soft U.S. jobs data (175,000 jobs added, 4.2% unemployment) boosted Fed rate cut hopes for September, lifting sentiment. However, sanctions on Russian oil pushed crude prices higher, and gold gains persisted as trade-related uncertainties drove safe-haven demand.

  • Analysts expect Nifty to consolidate around 24,700–24,900, with support at 24,600—monitor U.S. Fed actions and domestic consumption trends.

DO YOU KNOW?

The U.S. jobs report today, showing a slowdown from July’s 190,000, has heightened expectations of a 25-basis-point Fed rate cut on September 18, potentially easing global financial conditions.
