]]> Indian equity benchmarks posted gains for the third straight week, even after a late bout of profit booking trimmed some advances. The indices had touched a two-month high, supported by the resumption of India-US trade talks and the US Federal Reserve’s rate cut.The Sensex and Nifty closed the week with gains of 0.89 percent and 0.85 percent, respectively. IT and FMCG stocks faced selling pressure, but mid-cap and small-cap indices ended slightly higher.

PSU banks extended their rally, with the Nifty PSU Bank Index climbing more than 1 percent. Adani Group shares also surged after SEBI dismissed allegations by Hindenburg Research. Adani Enterprises rose 6 percent, while Adani Green, Adani Energy Solutions, Adani Power, and AWL Agri Business jumped as much as 12 percent.

Technically, Nifty formed a bearish candle on the daily chart but with a long lower shadow, suggesting strong buying at lower levels. On the weekly frame, it created a bullish candle and maintained higher lows for three weeks.Analysts said GST rationalisation and upcoming festive demand could support consumption-driven sectors. Investors will now track US macro data and India’s manufacturing PMI for further market cues.

]]> Domestic equity markets extended their winning run on Thursday, supported by positive global cues after the U.S. Federal Reserve reduced interest rates by 25 basis points. The benchmark rate now stands between 4% and 4.25%.

The S&P BSE Sensex advanced more than 350 points, crossing 83,000, while the NSE Nifty50 climbed above 25,400 in early trade. Broader indices also gained, with volatility staying steady, reflecting strong investor confidence.

Dr. V.K. Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Investments, described the move as a “risk management cut.” He highlighted that the Fed chief emphasized uncertainty around growth, inflation, and employment. With U.S. GDP projected to grow only 1.6% in 2025 and the labour market cooling, analysts expect the possibility of two additional cuts this year, despite Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s cautious stance.

Vijayakumar noted that Indian equities are unlikely to be directly impacted by the Fed decision. He stressed that domestic markets are being driven mainly by expectations of earnings recovery and positive signals from India-U.S. trade talks.

On Wednesday, the Nifty50 added 91 points to close at 25,330, marking 11 gains in the past 13 sessions. Analysts set support near 25,150 and resistance at 25,550–25,670, with technology and banking stocks likely to lead further momentum.
