The Indian Equity Markets opened strongly in the green in the early morning session on Thursday's expiry day trading and then did come down 50-75 Nifty points during the Day. Towards the Closing bell, the Indian equity markets again bounced back to close strongly on Thursday's weekly expiry.
Tech Mahindra, Bajaj Finance, Bharti Airtel, Bajaj Finserv, L&T, Tata Steel, and Infosys were the top gainers on Thursday’s Expiry day trading session.
On the other hand, HUL, Asian Paints, Bajaj Auto, and M&M were the main losers in trade.
After starting the day in positive zone on the back of strong U S Markets closing for the last 2 days, the Nifty did slide 50 points but recovered fast to trade around 15800 levels for a long time. Then towards closing, the nifty bounced back to end strongly at 15824 (+191) whereas the Sensex closed at 52837 (+638).
Most Analysts believe that the Indian markets have made a smart pull-back, supported by the positive global set-up and a decent start to the Q1FY22 earnings season.
They point out that the Markets are clearly rewarding the stocks/sectors where the earnings momentum is strong (such as IT - especially midcap IT, cement, metals) or where growth visibility remains good (such as chemicals, healthcare, etc). It is to be seen whether the Global cues on Thursday night will help nifty to finally scale above 16000 levels and move further up on Friday's trade.
Most experts expect the indices to continue to trade upwards on the last trading day of the week.
The Global cues will be an important trigger for the markets apart from the good results from the rest of the companies. Normally most traders look to book profits on the last day of the week and go with fewer trades for the next week.
The second half of the session can be a volatile trading session on Friday on account of profit booking.
