Post-market data and news around listed stocks.
The Nifty index is currently influenced by the bears, which is evident in the market trend. At present, the index is encountering substantial resistance at 18450, which has consistently posed a challenging barrier to breach. The lack of strength in global markets has had a negative impact on domestic indices, further exacerbated by the US's ongoing discussions regarding its debt ceiling, which has contributed to an overall bearish sentiment.
