The Nifty has been consolidating over the past few sessions, and the GIFT Nifty suggests a choppy day of trade ahead. The Nifty Bank index, however, has been an outperformer, surging over 1,100 points in the last three sessions. This trend is expected to continue today, ahead of the Financial Services expiry.
In the US, markets ended mixed, with the Dow closing at a record high. The Street is divided on how much the Fed will cut interest rates by, which has added to the uncertainty.
In corporate news, Samvardhana Motherson has launched a QIP (qualified institutional placement) to raise funds, confirming a CNBC-TV18 newsbreak. SpiceJet has also launched a QIP to raise up to ₹3,000 crore.
Bajaj Housing Finance shares may see further upside, according to analysts. JK Tyre has approved the merger of Cavendish Industries with itself, a move that is expected to boost its growth prospects.
Vedanta is another stock to watch, given its strong performance in recent sessions. The company's financials have been improving, and analysts expect this trend to continue.
Overall, it's a crucial day for the Indian stock market, with the Fed decision and expiry of Financial Services contracts set to drive sentiment. Investors are advised to stay cautious and keep a close eye on market developments.
