What’s Driving the Rally?
The stock market today got a big lift from global cues, with US markets ending higher after the Federal Reserve signaled rate cuts for 2025. Posts on X also noted a flat opening suggested by GIFT Nifty, but the actual trading session saw a sharp upward move. Sectors like bank and oil & gas led the gains, with heavyweights in these areas pulling the indices higher. The Nifty 50 breaking past 23,400 earlier this week has set a bullish tone, with analysts eyeing 23,800 as the next target.
The stock market today has investors feeling hopeful, but experts caution to watch key levels. The Nifty 50 faces resistance at 23,600, and a break above this could push it toward 23,800 or even 24,200 soon. Support lies at 23,000, offering a safety net. With BSE Midcap and Smallcap indices also joining the rally, the market looks set for more gains if global cues stay positive. Investors are now focusing on upcoming global economic data and local sector trends to plan their next moves.
