Liquide Post-Market Summary 19th December 2025

The Indian benchmark indices broke their four-day losing streak and ended on a strong note, with Nifty closing above 25,950. This rally was driven by broad-based buying across sectors and heightened optimism for further rate cuts by the Federal Reserve, following soft US inflation data.

BANK NIFTY: The index opened 135 points higher at 59,047.40 and closed at 59,069.20. Bank Nifty formed a Doji-like candlestick pattern, indicating indecision between the bulls and bears. Its immediate resistance level is now placed at 59,210 while immediate support is around 58,880.
