Stock Market Highlights 30 Aug 2022: Bulls make strong comeback! Nifty ends near 17,750, Sensex adds over 1500 points ahead of holiday tomorrow
(By Ravi kant Kumar)
In a strong comeback, the domestic equity market gained more than two and half per cent on Tuesday. The market had ended lower by around 1.5% on Monday. Ahead of the stock market holiday on Tuesday, the Nifty50 topped 17,700, while the Sensex surged by over 1500 points, supported by sectoral indices. The stock market, NSE and BSE, will remain closed on Tuesday on account of Ganesh Chaturthi.
Sectorally, banking and financial indices drove the rally as Nifty Bank, Financial Services, Private Bank and PSU Bank ended higher by 2.5-3.4%. Nifty Auto rose around 2.5%, while Realty index too gained more than three per cent on Tuesday as all indices settled in the green.
Nifty Midcap gained around two per cent, while Small ended higher by 1.2% on Tuesday.
Today's rebound indicates the domestic economy's resilience in comparison to its global peers, said Vinod Nair, Head of Research at Geojit Financial Services.
"Although the markets are currently at premium valuations, continued support from foreign investors aided domestic stocks to inch higher. Sectors in swing with the progress of the domestic economy should be able to do well compared to the rest," added Nair.
All stocks ended in the green zone on Tuesday. Bajaj twins led the rally on the benchmark indices as IndusInd Bank, Tech Mahindra, ICICI Bank, HUL and Tata Steel closely followed them

Our markets are showing resilience despite volatile global cues, and a surge in crude oil prices but such kind of rally bewildered everyone. This powerful rally can be attributed to delivery-based buying by the FIIs and short covering in the F&O market. Rupee also witnessed a sharp appreciation against the USD despite higher crude oil prices which is a clear indication of FIIs' interest in the Indian equity market. The leadership was in the hands of financial names, whereas the Nifty realty index was the best performing index. The market is heading towards the festive season on an exhilarating note and there is a high probability that the Nifty and Sensex may hit new highs ahead of Diwali.

Day that belonged to bulls
A day that completely belonged to bulls. What a broad-based rally today! All indices closed higher with Nifty 50 closing 2.6% higher and Bank Nifty outperformed all other indices and closed 3.3% higher. After the Jackson Hole meeting last Thursday, US markets corrected sharply with all their benchmark indices like S&P, Dow Jones, NASDAQ closing 3-4% lower. Post this meeting, Indian markets opened lower on Friday with Nifty 50 opening 2% lower but since then, it has made a sharp recovery of 600 points from the lows in just 2 trading sessions. Nifty 50 today closed at 17760 which is the highest ever monthly close for it. Bulls seem to be in control and one should avoid shorting at these levels.

Bank Nifty outlook: Upside indicates targets of 41,000-41,500
"The Bank Nifty index witnessed a sharp move on the upside despite the negative global sentiment. The index surpassed the immediate hurdle of 38,500 which will now act as strong support on the downside. The index on the upside indicates targets of 41,000-41,500 where the earlier major sell-off of the index was seen. The index remains in a buy-on-dip mode as long as it holds the support of 38,500 on the downside."
