The Indian Equity Markets opened in the green in the early morning session on Thursday's expiry day trading and then did move upwards down during the Day. Towards the Closing bell, the Indian equity markets were strong on Thursday's weekly expiry.
After starting the day in the positive zone on the back of strong US Markets closing, the Nifty did move upwards to trade around 15800 levels for a long time. Then towards closing, the nifty ended strongly at 15778 (+69) whereas the Sensex closed at 52653 (+209).
Tata Steel, Bajaj Finserv, SBI, HCL Tech, Sun Pharma, Bajaj Finance, and Reliance Industries were the main gainers in trade on July Monthly expiry.
On the other hand, Maruti, PowerGrid, Bajaj Auto, and ITC were among the losers in trade.
Most analysts feel that the Domestic equities recovered as positive global cues and strong buying in metal and IT stocks supported markets.
It was also observed that the short-covering in select heavyweights also aided rebound. The Auto sector, FMCG, and pharma remained slightly weak, whereas the other most key sectoral indices traded in the green.
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.
