The Indian stock markets opened marginally up on Wednesday following global cues and a rally in US stock markets. The Nifty 50 index on the National Stock Exchange opened 0.19 per cent higher at 24,184.40 points, while the BSE Sensex index gained 109 points to 79,065.22 at the opening. The top gainers at opening in the Nifty 50 list included Titan, Apollo Hospitals, Tata Consumers, Dr Reddy’s, and HCL Tech, while the top losers were BPCL, HDFC Bank, HDFC Life, Shri Ram Finance, and ONGC. The experts suggest that Indian markets are in a balanced mode amid FIIs selling and DIIs buying.

V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Financial Services, mentioned that the pattern of FII selling on valuation concerns and DII buying supported by money flows continues in India. Some segments like defence-related stocks are witnessing corrections, while financials are under pressure due to rising costs of deposits. Quality banking stocks offer value for long-term investors. In broad market indices on the NSE, Nifty Small Cap 50 led with a surge of 0.49 per cent, and sectoral indices, Nifty Realty, gained by 0.51 per cent.

Market sentiment has turned bearish as the index struggles to surpass the 21 Exponential Moving Average, suggesting a negative near-term trend. Varun Aggarwal, MD, Profit Idea, mentioned that resistance is now seen at 24,250, and a failure to break this level could prompt a sell-on-rallies strategy. Conversely, if the Nifty falls below 24,000, further declines towards 23,700 are possible. Hindustan Aeronautics, Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders, Ola Electric Mobility, Glenmark Pharma, Reliance Power, KNR Constructions, Redtape, and Reliance Infrastructure are some of the companies reporting financial results on Wednesday.

In the Asian markets, Japan’s Nikkei 225 index and Hong Kong’s Hang Seng index declined marginally, while other Asian stock markets, including Taiwan’s Taiwan Weighted index, South Korea’s KOSPI, and Jakarta Composite, gained on Wednesday. The US markets rallied on Tuesday, with the Dow Jones index surging by more than 1 per cent, the S&P 500 increasing by 1.68 per cent, and the Nasdaq gaining by more than 2.4 per cent. The positive momentum in the US markets has influenced the Indian stock markets as well.

Overall, the Indian stock markets opened marginally up on Wednesday following global cues and a rally in US stock markets. While the Nifty 50 index and BSE Sensex gained at the opening, the market sentiment has turned bearish as the index struggles to surpass key resistance levels. Hindustan Aeronautics, Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders, Ola Electric Mobility, Glenmark Pharma, Reliance Power, KNR Constructions, Redtape, and Reliance Infrastructure are some of the companies reporting financial results on Wednesday. The global cues from US markets and other Asian stock markets have had an impact on the Indian stock markets as well.

The experts suggest that Indian markets are in a balanced mode amid FIIs selling on valuation concerns and DIIs buying supported by money flows. Some segments like defence-related stocks are witnessing corrections, while financials are under pressure due to rising costs of deposits. Meanwhile, quality banking stocks are seen as offering value for long-term investors. Market sentiment has turned bearish as the index struggles to surpass key resistance levels, prompting a sell-on-rallies strategy if the level is not broken. On the other hand, further declines are possible if the Nifty falls below key support levels.

In conclusion, the Indian stock markets are showing a mixed sentiment with gains at the opening following global cues and a rally in US stock markets. The market experts are closely watching the movement of key indices and suggest that quality banking stocks may offer value for long-term investors. As companies report their financial results, investors are advised to stay informed and cautious about the market trends. The global cues from US markets and Asian stock markets are closely monitored for their impact on the Indian stock markets.
