We have seen consolidation after gap-up opening on the last two Mondays. The only difference yesterday was that the market did not get back to the previous day’s range in the last two weeks as the market was rallying earlier.
As we discussed yesterday, watch 43,475 as it is a major support in the hourly chart. We have seen multiple bounces off this zone. However, the index is justifying the VIX value now, unlike Friday. So, we may not reach the index reaching there today.
India’s inflation eases to 4.25% in line with the estimates. This is a 25-month low. Note that inflation has dropped by 2.3% since January. But it has been 44 months since inflation came down below 4%.
Industrial growth data also came out strong.
It is FIN NIFTY expiry today. Straddle Premium is 87 and the spot is exactly at 18,400. Lower premium will make aggressive adjustments difficult.
