POST-MARKET SUMMARY 28 November 2023
On November 28, the Indian benchmark indices wrapped up another volatile session with a strong finish, breaking the two-day streak of mildly negative closes. The Nifty crossed 19,900, driven by buying activities in the oil & gas, power, auto, and metal sectors. Despite a mildly positive start influenced by mixed global cues, early gains were nullified, leading to a rangebound movement. Nevertheless, on the sectoral front, the power and oil & gas indices recorded a 3% increase each, while the metal, auto, and PSU Bank indices saw a rise of 1% each. Conversely, some selling pressure was observed in the capital goods, FMCG, and pharmaceutical sectors, as the market dynamics continued to shift.
NIFTY: The index opened 50 points higher at 19,844 and made a high of 19,916 before closing at 19,889. Nifty has formed a bullish candlestick pattern with upper and lower shadows on the daily chart. Its immediate resistance level is now placed at 19,950 while immediate support is at 19,800.
BANK NIFTY: The index opened 82 points higher at 43,851 and closed at 43,880. Bank Nifty has formed a small-bodied bullish candlestick pattern with long upper and lower shadows on the daily chart and continued higher highs and higher lows for three days in a row. Its immediate resistance level is now placed at 44,050 while support is at 43,700.
