POST-MARKET SUMMARY 04 October 2023

On October 4, the Nifty experienced its second consecutive day of declines, influenced by unfavourable global indicators and ongoing foreign institutional investor (FII) divestment. This downward trend was exacerbated by a strengthening US dollar and increasing US treasury yields, which contributed to a general aversion to risk in the market. International investors have been withdrawing their investments from Indian equity markets because the current surge in the US dollar and bond yields is diminishing the appeal of emerging market assets. Despite India's robust macroeconomic growth performance, the country is not immune to global challenges. Therefore, any correction in global markets driven by concerns about potential interest rate hikes is likely to have a ripple effect here.

NIFTY: The index opened 82 points lower at 19,446 and made a high of 19,457 before closing at 19,436. Nifty has formed a Dragonfly Doji candlestick formation, which indicates a strong possibility of a relief rally from the current levels. Its immediate resistance level is now placed at 19,600 while immediate support is at 19,200.

BANK NIFTY: The index opened 291 points lower at 44,108 and closed at 43,964. Bank Nifty has formed a bearish candlestick pattern on the daily chart. Its immediate resistance level is now placed at 44,400 while support is at 43,800.
