Yesterday, Nifty gapped higher but remained volatile in the opening hour. It gradually moved higher as the day progressed and closed above 15,300. Volume was comparatively low. Nifty is now less than 1% below its all-time high. Sensex also crossed the 51,000 mark and closed above that. Broader market indices underperformed benchmark indices. Barring Nifty Metal (-1.8%) and PSU Bank (-0.3%), all other sectoral indices closed in the green. Nifty Realty closed 2.8% higher. After many days of muted action, Nifty IT (1.8%) led the gains today. Nifty Auto, FMCG, Pharma, and Financial Service closed 0.1–0.5% higher. Nifty is trading 3% and 3.8% above its 21- and 50-DMA, respectively.

Last week, Nifty retook its 50-DMA, did not add a distribution day, and registered an additional follow-through day, which are positive signs. We would like the index to hold its 50-DMA and trade above that. Without trying to predict and decode stories, we will take what the market gives and continue to monitor unfolding conditions. If the index falls further, adds a distribution day, and breaches its key moving averages, we may change the market status to an Uptrend Under Pressure. Focus on quality ideas emerging out of sound bases with relative strength line at or near new highs while reducing exposure to stocks breaking below key support levels.
