Pre-Market Experts' View: Buying On Dips Likely To Take Place
"The Nifty is trading within a broad rising channel, holding firm above its key support zone at 25,500–25,550. A sustained breakout above 25,700–25,820 could trigger fresh momentum toward 26,000, while a slip below 25,500 may prompt a retest of 25,300–25,150. Overall, as long as the index holds above the lower channel base, the broader market structure remains constructive, with dips likely to attract renewed buying interest."Ponmudi R, CEO, Enrich Money
"We expect markets to remain range-bound tracking global cues, while optimism around better than expected corporate earnings and any progress in India–U.S. trade talks could provide upside support."Siddhartha Khemka, Head, Research, Wealth Management, Motilal Oswal Financial Services
