📊📑 Important Observations and Market Sentiments: Editor Special

  • The market staged a relief rally after a three-month low, supported by positive global cues and a gradual FII return. PSU Banks led the charge with strong Q1 results, while broad momentum lifted most sectors. Investors are optimistic about the upcoming US-Russia Summit, which could ease geopolitical tensions and soften US trade stances.

  • Despite near-term caution due to unassessed US tariff and growth impacts (50% on Indian goods effective August 27), domestic resilience—backed by the RBI’s neutral stance, a good monsoon, and Q1 GDP (6.5% from August 8 context)—bolstered confidence.

  • Analysts expect Nifty to consolidate around 24,400–24,800, with support at 24,300—watch the summit and US policy shifts.
