Nifty futures have been trading cautious on Monday, indicating a tepid start out for BSE Sensex and Nifty 50. Apart from second-quarter earnings by IT firms, macroeconomic information and worldwide trends would be keenly tracked. Indian equity markets would stay closed on Friday, 15 October 2021, for Dussehra. Also, the movement of other main industry drivers such as foreign institutional investors, Brent crude oil costs, and rupee would also be tracked for additional path. “Nifty moved above the bear candle of Wednesday and in the process almost reached the earlier all-time high of 17948. A move above the all-time high could mean running into another resistance at 18000 for some time. However, if this is achieved, we could move even higher later on. The breadth of the market could deteriorate in the near term as the focus could now shift back to large caps,” Deepak Jasani, Head of Retail Research, HDFC Securities, stated.
