Highlights
Nifty 50 has toppled around 3%, last week, from all-time highs which should be considered a healthy correction. In bull markets like these, a 3-5% correction is healthy for the long-term uptrend of the market. I expect the markets to be sideways in the coming few weeks with negative bias. However, Bank Nifty might perform well in the coming weeks as it has settled well above 40,000. Also, the quarterly results by leading banks look impressive which should provide good momentum to Bank Nifty. I am expecting Bank Nifty to cross the 42,000 mark before this Diwali. We have seen profit booking in selective tech stocks, auto sector and metal counters. Long-term investors should consider any such opportunity to accumulate quality mid-caps and large caps to their portfolio.

COMEX gold trades little changed near $1795/oz after a 1.6% gain last week. Gold remains supported by weaker US dollar, retreat in bond yields, increasing inflation concerns, renewed virus concerns and mixed economic data from major economies. However, weighing on price is lack of investor buying, strength in equity markets and increasing expectations of Fed’s monetary tightening. Gold continues to struggle to sustain above the $1800/oz level which shows lack of confidence however with increasing challenges to global economy, prices may remain supported.

The markets are struggling at the psychological level of 18000. Despite opening at above 18200, the index failed to sustain and dropped within a few minutes. If we can keep above 18000 on a closing basis, it would be a positive sign. However, if we break that level, the sentiments in the short term would get jittery and the Nifty could slide down further towards 17700-17800.

RBI has been succeeded to keep inflation within the band until now, but the looming energy crisis and higher assumption of the oil prices (pointed in the monthly bulletin) could be worrisome for the market and so for the Rupee. Over a short-term basis, retracement in the energy prices and metal prices could support the Indian rupee, but rising US yield and unfavorable corporate results could become headwinds. Broadly, the USDINR pair is expected to remain in a range of 74.50-75.20 until major triggers take it towards 75.50-76.00 over the medium term. Amit Pabari, managing director, CR Forex Advisors

Going ahead, we expect buying demand to emerge in the 18000-17800 range as we do not expect the key support threshold of 17800 to be breached.

We believe such price action would make the market healthier.
