[hfe_template id='11223'] [ad_1] The Indian market is likely to trade lower on Thursday, tracking weak global cues. India VIX, a gauge of market volatility, dipped marginally by 0.78% to 14.37, reflecting growing apprehension among traders. The derivatives market shows a bearish undertone, with aggressive call writing leading the session. The 24,500-strike call accumulated the highest open interest at 1.14 crore contracts, underscoring it as a formidable resistance level. Conversely, the 24,000-strike put holds 85.55 lakh contracts, signifying robust support. “Heavy call writing in the 24,200–24,500 range reinforces strong resistance, while diminishing put positions at lower levels indicate waning bullish sentiment,” said Dhupesh Dhameja, Derivatives Analyst at SAMCO Securities. “The put-call ratio (PCR) declined sharply to 0.37 from 0.48, highlighting a bearish tilt.

Has Friday the 13th spooked Nifty bulls ever? Let's study history

Image
[hfe_template id='11223'] [ad_1] When the Sensex fell over 1,200 points and Nifty cracked below the 24,200 level in the first half of the day before recovering all the losses later on, investors couldn't help but draw parallels with how today's dateline of Friday the 13th could have proved to be spooky for the stock market. While it's tough to find rationale in the sudden U-turn in the movement of headline indices intra-day as share prices are known to be unpredictable and non-linear just like the footsteps of a drunk man, let's look at how Friday the 13th, considered an unlucky day in Western culture, looks like on Dalal Street. Market data shows that the superstition doesn't hold true in the Indian stock market, as Dalal Street witnessed 41 trading sessions on Friday the 13th. However, Nifty ended in the negative in only 46% (19) of these sessions, according to an analysis by Samco Securities. The average gain across these 41 sessions is 0.35%, sugg...

Midcap stocks drop 10% from highs, head for correction as growth outlook sours

Image
[hfe_template id='11223'] [ad_1] A blistering rally in mid-cap stocks is on course to enter correction territory, as investors become increasingly concerned over slowing earnings growth and elevated valuations. The Nifty Midcap 100 tumbled as much as 2.9% Friday, extending its drop from recent high to more than 10% — the parameter for a so-called technical correction. Heavy selling by foreign portfolio managers this month fueled the downturn in the index, which had rallied about 30% through September 23. The rapid change in fortunes for Indian stocks came as a rally in Chinese shares gathered steam, following a central bank stimulus blitz in late September that sparked a frenzy of buying. Slowing earnings growth in India also weighed on sentiment. Bloomberg While foreign investors have soured on local shares, domestic institutions have poured in billions to absorb their selling.
