Yesterday, Nifty opened with moderate gains and continued the positive momentum in the first hour, making a high of 11,431. After moving sideways for a while, Nifty dropped 150 points from the day's high, closing 30bps lower. As the volume was higher compared with the previous session, we will consider yesterday’s action as a distribution day. Higher selling was witnessed after European markets opened 1% lower. Broader indices were hit hard. Nifty Midcap and Smallcap closed 1.4% and 1.0% lower, respectively.
On the sectoral front, only Nifty IT closed higher. Nifty Metal and Media closed 3.2% lower, while Nifty Realty and Pharma were down 2.0% and 1.6%, respectively.
The market status was recently changed to an Uptrend Under Pressure. We will be slightly cautious while initiating fresh long positions. We will change the status to a Downtrend if two or three more distribution days are added or if Nifty breaches its 50- and 200-DMA. On the flip side, the status will be shifted back to a Confirmed Uptrend if Nifty retakes the 11,795 level (high made during the recent rally).
