Indian markets stay bullish for fourth consecutive day; Sensex surges 256 points on RBI rate cuts
Indian stock markets extended their winning streak for the fourth straight session on Monday, buoyed by the Reserve Bank of India's recent monetary policy easing. The BSE Sensex closed 256.22 points higher at 82,445.21, up 0.31%, while the NSE Nifty advanced 100.15 points to 25,103.20, marking a 0.40% gain. The rally was largely driven by continued optimism following the RBI's unexpected move to slash the repo rate by 50 basis points to 5.5%, along with a phased 100-basis-point reduction in the Cash Reserve Ratio (CRR). These measures are expected to boost market liquidity, particularly benefiting midcap stocks. 'Financial stocks extended their gains on the back of the RBI's aggressive policy stance. The twin rate cuts are likely to support credit growth and improve market sentiment in the near-to-medium term,' said Vinod Nair, Head of Research at Geojit Financial Services. Sector-wise, Nifty Financial Services Ex-Bank led the gains, followed by Nifty PSU Bank and Nifty Oil & Gas. Nifty Realty was the only index to end in the red. A major highlight of the session was the Bank Nifty index, which breached the 57,000 mark for the first time ever, signaling strong bullish momentum in the banking space. Global cues also played a role, as U.S. jobs data showed employers added 139,000 jobs in May, with average hourly earnings rising 0.4%, boosting investor sentiment worldwide. Optimism around renewed U.S.-China trade negotiations further lifted global markets. 'FIIs have shown renewed interest, with large-cap stocks gaining momentum. Overall, the domestic and international macro outlook appears supportive for equities in the short term,' added Nair. The RBI's policy moves, aimed at enhancing credit availability and stimulating growth, are expected to sustain the current bullish trend in the Indian equity markets.

Trade Setup June 10: Nifty breaks out of consolidation, eyeing 25,600
The Nifty index extended its winning streak for the fourth consecutive day, closing at an eight-month high amid strong market momentum. On the first trading day of the week, the Nifty opened with a sharp upside gap of 157 points, eventually settling above 25,100 levels to close the session at 25,103, marking a gain of 100 points. This is the highest closing level seen in 2025 so far. Market breadth was broadly positive, with 40 Nifty stocks closing in the green. Leading the charge were heavyweight stocks such as Jio Financial, Kotak Bank, and Bajaj Finance. The Nifty Bank index also reached new heights, surpassing the 57,000 mark for the second consecutive day, signaling robust investor interest in banking stocks. Midcap and Smallcap indices continued to outperform the benchmark, highlighting strong buying across broader market segments. The Nifty Smallcap index marked its sixth straight day of gains, reaching a fresh five-month high. The Nifty Midcap 100 Index rose by 1.13%, while the Nifty Smallcap 100 Index surged by 1.57%, reflecting investors' appetite for higher-risk, high-reward stocks. Sector-wise, all indices except Nifty Realty ended positive. Nifty PSU Banks, IT, and Oil & Gas sectors were the top performers, driven by strong demand. The Reserve Bank of India's recent decision to cut the repo rate by 50 basis points and the cash reserve ratio (CRR) by 100 basis points fueled gains in banks and NBFCs. Additionally, RBI's easing of gold loan norms triggered increased buying in gold financiers, with stocks rising between 4% and 8%. In the automobile sector, companies like Hero MotoCorp and Maruti Suzuki benefitted from the RBI rate cut announcement and registered notable gains. Tata Motors rose 1%, buoyed by an optimistic mid-term outlook. The company projects its commercial vehicle business to capture a 40% market share, with EBITDA margins in the teens and healthy free cash flow generation expected. On the downside, shares of food delivery players Swiggy Ltd. and Zomato's parent company Eternal Ltd. slipped 2-3% after reports surfaced about Rapido launching a food delivery pilot in Bengaluru later this month, potentially intensifying competition. Looking ahead, investors will focus on key economic data, including the US May Retail Inflation (CPI) report scheduled for Wednesday and India's CPI data due on Thursday. These indicators are expected to influence market sentiment in the near term. Expert Views: Market strategists remain optimistic about the Nifty's prospects. Siddhartha Khemka of Motilal Oswal highlighted that the market's gradual uptrend is supported by robust corporate earnings, RBI's liquidity measures, a favorable monsoon forecast, and potential progress in the US-India trade deal. Nagaraj Shetti from HDFC Securities noted, 'A sustained move above 25,200 could pave the way for a further rally toward 25,600.' Immediate support is seen at 24,900 levels. Rupak De of LKP Securities pointed out the index has decisively broken out from a consolidation phase, with strong support above the 50-day moving average. He added, 'A move above 25,350 may trigger further gains toward 25,700, while support lies at 24,850.' Corporate Updates to Watch: Capri Global has launched a Qualified Institutional Placement (QIP) to raise up to ₹2,000 crore, including a ₹500 crore upsizing option. Tech Mahindra announced that Lakshmanan Chidambaram will retire as President of Tech Mahindra Americas, effective June 30, 2025. Oberoi Realty confirmed the resignation of Pankaj Gupta, Chief Executive Officer - Commercial Real Estate, effective June 9, 2025. Jana Small Finance Bank has applied to the Reserve Bank of India for approval to voluntarily transition from a Small Finance Bank to a Universal Bank. With these developments, the Indian markets are poised for further action, keeping investors engaged ahead of crucial global and domestic cues.
