Stock Market Today: Both the Sensex and Nifty indices were close to record highs when the stock market started on September 14. The Sensex displayed a green signal at the start of the trading day, rising by 179.77 points to reach 67,646.76. Similar to the Dow, the Nifty began the day in the black after adding 66.35 points to reach 20,136.65.
The Nifty-listed firms showed a mixed mood among investors, with 22 in the rising category, 27 in losses, and 1 remaining stable.
Wipro, Adani Enterprises, M&M, Coal India, and SBI were notable gainers in the early trading session, while LTIMindtree, SBI Life, Sun Pharma, Axis Bank, and Asian Paints were among the top losses.
Profit Idea founder and managing director Varun Aggarwal, a market analyst, expressed hope for the market’s future. Strong put writing at 19,500 PE (price to earning ratio), according to Aggarwal, “indicates a favorable market bias. The ratio of small and mid-cap companies promotes bullish momentum, and the channel is still only halfway complete. It is obvious that the small-caps bull run is far from finished, and corrections are good for the market.
“The ratio is just halfway complete, thus the top end is at 0.85, and we are currently in the channel’s midpoint at 0.62. The small-caps bull run is still going strong, so it will take some time to get there. As we move forward, near-term corrections are useful for shaking off weak hands, according to Aggarwal.
Several industries, including those in the information technology, infrastructure, media, banking, and pharmaceutical industries, showed promise. Particular mid- and small-cap companies still have the ability to increase significantly from their current levels.”Stocks in IT, Infra, Media, Banks, and Pharma are looking good. Certain mid and small company equities can still increase in value from their current levels, according to Aggarwal.
A portion of the recent good stock market performance can be credited to India’s excellent 7.8% first-quarter GDP growth rate (April–June) of the fiscal year 2023–24. The ongoing overseas portfolio investments and this promising economic outlook have increased investor confidence.
Additionally, a constant eye is kept on the international markets, especially those in the US. The August inflation data release, which is expected to shed information on the US Federal Reserve’s monetary policy, has altered market emotions.
With consumer inflation forecast to reach 3.2% in July 2023, investors are interested to see if the Federal Reserve will change its stance at its September 19–20 meeting.
Market players will monitor developments and economic indicators throughout the trading day to predict market movement.The Indian stock market is still roaring at historic highs.
