📌 Friday's Wrap-up

Our markets had a cheerful end to the week. The Sensex jumped about 1.3%, closing near 82,408, and Nifty ended at around 25,112—both snapping a three-day slide.

This was largely fueled by strong gains in banks (like HDFC & ICICI) and energy giants such as Reliance. The Reserve Bank of India's easing of provisioning rules for infrastructure loans also gave the financial sector a shot in the arm.

🌡️ What's Brewing Tonight

Big Picture

Nifty trading above the 25,000 mark signals positive momentum. Support stands firm near 24,800, with resistance levels spotted at ~25,400 and ~25,650.

Bank Nifty Watch

Currently hovering around 56,250, with key support at 55,350–55,500 and resistance lining up near 56,700–57,000.

Midcap Alert

Jefferies' Chris Wood is cautioning that valuations in the midcap space might be overheated—saying some stocks are trading 23–27x forward earnings, which could spell trouble if more equity gets floated.

🔍 The Drivers: What Could Steer Monday?

Domestic Buying Strength

India's domestic institutions have been net buyers, pumping in over ₹59,800 crore this month. That steady flow has balanced out foreign investor activity, providing a base for confidence.

Global Senses

Geopolitics: Tensions in the Middle East ease oil price pressure, but any flare-up could spark volatility.

Global Data: Flash PMIs out this week from India and abroad may reshape market tone.
