Indian stock market closed in the green on Tuesday, with Sensex and Nifty recording marginal gains while broader markets outperformed sharply. This came as India VIX, which measures volatility in
the market, falling nearly 9% to 15.56. Domestic markets are witnessing a mild recovery after the recent sharp decline, supported by a pause in Iran-Israel tensions and softer crude prices. However, sentiment remains fragile, with continued FII outflows and higher bond yields highlighting persistent concerns around evolving global macro dynamics. Focus is now on the upcoming US inflation data, which will be key in shaping expectations on Fed policy and global liquidity, especially given resilient US economic data. In the near term, markets are likely to remain volatile and range-bound, with investors staying cautious until clearer global cues emerge, even as Q4FY26 earnings were slightly better while the outlook for Q1FY27 remains weak,” said Vinod Nair, Head of Research at Geojit Investments.Here's how analysts read the market pulse Nifty witnessed a recovery after forming an inverted hammer candlestick near its key support zone of 23,150–23,200, indicating buying interest at lower levels. Follow-through strength in the subsequent session suggests the index may extend its pullback towards the 23,350–23,400 zone in the coming sessions. However, the broader trend remains weak as the index continues to trade below its 20-day and 50-day SMAs while maintaining a lower-high and lower-low structure. RSI is placed at 39.6, reflecting subdued momentum. Hence, a level-based trading approach is preferred,” said Vatsal Bhuva, Technical Analyst at LKP Securities.US StocksUS markets dropped lower on Tuesday after opening in the green, led by a fall in tech and chip stocks, as Nasdaq droppe over 2%. Indexes swung lower as companies selling computer chips, memory and other building blocks of the AI boom broke from early gains to losses.The weakness for AI stocks drowned out the benefit Wall Street got from easing oil prices. The price for a barrel of Brent crude oil dropped 3.3% to $91.12 after briefly topping $98 the day before.European MarketsGlobal equities pared earlier gains on Tuesday as it saw little support from Wall Street where investors waited anxiously for inflation data while the dollar dipped with oil prices on hopes for easing Middle East tensions after Iran and Israel halted attacks on each other.Tech ViewAccording to Vatsal Bhuva from LKP Securities, Nifty 50 can find support at 23,000–23,100, while resistance is placed at 23,350–23,400. “A bullish confirmation would emerge only after Nifty reclaims its 20-day SMA and sustains above the 24,500 level,” he added.“On the daily chart, the index formed a Dragonfly Doji, a pattern that is generally considered a bullish reversal signal. As long as the Nifty sustains above the 23,100 level, a follow-through move towards 23,400 is likely, with 23,500 acting as the next immediate resistance. Meanwhile, the volatility index, INDIAVIX, cooled off by 8% to 15.50, and any further decline in volatility could provide additional comfort to the bulls,” said Nilesh Jain, VP- Head of Technical and Derivative research at Centrum Finverse.Most active stocks in terms of turnoverReliance Industries (Rs 2,987 crore), HDFC Bank (Rs 2,846 crore), ICICI Bank (Rs 2,844 crore), Ola Electric Mobility (Rs 2,354 crore), SBI (Rs 2,210 crore), Bharti Airtel (Rs 1,873 crore) and Data Patterns (Rs 1,830 crore) were among the most active stocks on NSE in value terms.
