The domestic stock markets experienced a downturn on Friday, with the Nifty index declining by 46.10 points (0.19%) to close at 23,643.50 and the BSE Sensex falling 160.73 points (0.21%) to settle at 75,237.99. This decline broke a two-session winning streak, primarily driven by losses in banking, metal, and realty sectors. Analysts have noted that the Nifty is currently facing resistance around 23,800 and may experience renewed selling pressure if it falls below 23,500, which could lead to further declines towards 23,150. The volatility index, India VIX, rose by 0.95% to 18.79, indicating increased market uncertainty. Global markets mirrored this trend, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropping 1.07% and major European indices also trading lower, influenced by rising crude oil prices. On the BSE, Nazara Technologies topped the turnover list with ₹563 crore, while Vodafone Idea led in trading volume with 4.97 crore shares changing hands. Overall, market sentiment appears bearish, with more stocks declining than advancing.
