Expert's View: Nifty, Sensex Experiences Selling Pressure Amid Caution Over Global Developments
"The RSI at 61 stays in bullish territory but below overbought levels, suggesting room for further upside while keeping momentum healthy. The Immediate support is seen at 25,000–24,900, where the moving average aligns, while resistance lies near 25,600–25,700, the recent swing high zone. The Highest Call OI has remains concentrated at the 25,500 strike, while Put OI is positioned at the 25,200 strike for the upcoming weekly expiry."Jigar Trivedi, Senior Research Analyst, Reliance Securities
"Although President Trump later softened his stance, saying the U.S. does not intend to “hurt China,” which led to a recovery in U.S. stock futures, investor caution persists amid renewed global uncertainty. Beyond the immediate volatility, investors are likely to stay focused on key catalysts such as Q2 earnings, domestic CPI inflation, and U.S. inflation data, which could shape near-term market sentiment."Ponmudi R, CEO, Enrich Money
