Indian benchmark indices witnessed a volatile session on Friday, June 5 and closed marginally lower as investors reacted to the RBI monetary policy outcome and continued FII selling. The central bank kept the repo rate unchanged at 5.25% and maintained its neutral policy stance, while raising its inflation forecast and lowering GDP growth projections, which kept market sentiment cautious throughout the session.Here's how analysts read the market pulse:"While the broader index trend remains weak, mixed performance among heavyweight stocks is limiting the pace of decline. In this backdrop, we maintain a cautious stance and prefer a sell-on-rise approach until the Nifty decisively reclaims the 23,700 level. At the same time, traders should focus on stock-specific opportunities across sectors and maintain balanced positions with disciplined overnight risk management," said Ajit Mishra, SVP – Research, Religare Broking.US marketsThe US stock market had its worst day since October on Friday as a sell-off in big technology companies weighed on the broader market and a strong jobs report boosted expectations that the Federal Reserve may be forced to hike interest rates at some point this year.The S&P 500 sank 2.6%, its biggest one-day drop since October 10, when the Trump administration threatened to impose a 100% tariff on imported goods from China. The losses pushed the benchmark index to its first losing week in the last 10. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 1.4%, while the Nasdaq Composite slumped 4.2%.European marketsEuropean shares ended the week lower, as uncertainty over Middle East peace efforts kept investors on edge and technology stocks paused after a blistering two-month rally.The pan-European STOXX 600 index fell 0.3% to 622.66 points and lost 0.5% for the week. Hopes for a breakthrough between the US and Iran appeared limited after the two countries exchanged strikes earlier in the week, while a US-brokered Israel-Lebanon ceasefire also looked fragile after Hezbollah rejected the pact. The resulting spike in energy costs has complicated the inflation outlook. Data this week showed euro zone inflation accelerated in May, prompting markets to price in a 25-basis-point interest rate hike from the European Central Bank.Tech ViewGoing ahead, the index is likely to consolidate in the 23,000-23,550 range in the coming week. Only a move above Tuesday’s high of 23,556 will open the upside towards the 23,750–23,800 resistance zone in the coming sessions.Most active stocks in terms of turnoverBSE (Rs 2,633 crore), ZEE (Rs 2,547 crore), RIL (Rs 2,303 crore), SBI (Rs 2,057 crore), Adani Enterprises (Rs 2,057 crore), HDFC Bank (Rs 1,660 crore) and Himadri Speciality (Rs 1,625 crore) were among the most active stocks on BSE in value terms.

Mumbai: Global investors continued to pare equity stake in the financial services sector in the second half of May, however the pace of selling came off.Foreign portfolio investors (FPI) sold shares worth ₹5,181 crore from the sector in the period, significantly lower than the outflow of ₹17,000 crore in first half of the month, according to the data from NSDL. Between January and March, global investors pulled out shares worth over ₹60,000 crore from the sector."Banking stocks offered foreign investors an easy exit from India by virtue of being highly liquid," said U R Bhat, co-founder & director, Alphaniti. "Despite the sell-off, the sector has fared well, barring a few specific exceptions. Now investors are reducing exposure in other sectors."Bank Nifty fell 1% over the past one month compared with a 2.9% drop in the benchmark Nifty 50."Global investors toned down the selling in the banking and financial services sector and bought selectively- mostly smaller banks instead of the large caps which is why the pace of outflows moderated," said Sonam Srivastava, founder and CEO, Wright Research. Overseas investors sold shares worth ₹14,621 crore across 13 sectors in the second half of May, after withdrawing ₹38,443 crore across 19 sectors in the first half of the month.131518952FPIs have continued the selling spree in the current calendar year, offloading equities worth ₹2.6 lakh crore up till June 03. This exceeds their outflow of ₹1.7 lakh crore in the whole of 2025. A sustained selling pressure has intensified this year due to AI disruption and inflationary pressure on account of elevated oil prices given the US-Iran war. In addition, the net outflow of ₹1.3 lakh crore in FY27 so far exceeds the net investment of ₹84,132 crore by FPIs since FY17. The cumulative net foreign investment in Indian equities dropped to the lowest level in 12 years to ₹7.1 lakh crore in FY27.In the second half of May, automobiles and oil and gas sectors reported worth over ₹2,000 crore. On May 29, The MSCI rebalancing led to outflows worth ₹8,000-8,500 crore which also factored in the outflows for this fortnight. "Changes in the MSCI Index shifts the composition of not just index funds that mimic the index but also weighs on decisions of other funds,who largely use MSCI indices as benchmarks" said Bhat.Among sectors that reported net inflows in the second half of May, metals attracted nearly 60% of the inflows -the highest foreign inflows worth ₹4,999 crore for the period. The sector witnessed inflows worth over ₹6,500 crore in May.

Mumbai: Information technology stocks surged on Monday, dodging a weak broader market, with the Nifty IT index closing at its highest level since April 23, as attractive valuations and recent AI-led partnerships drew investor interest and prompted traders to build some fresh long positions.The Nifty IT index advanced 2.7%, its strongest single-day gain in nearly two weeks (since May 19), even as the benchmark Nifty declined 0.7%. Tech Mahindra, Infosys and LTM rose 3.7% each, while Persistent Systems gained 3.6%. Coforge and Oracle Financial Services Software advanced 2.6% and 2.1%, respectively."Indian IT firms are following suit of American companies like Anthropic and OpenAI by taking up contracts and tie-ups which are perceived as promising by investors," said Gaurav Sharma, head of Research, Globe Capital.Wipro's expanded Agentic AI partnership with ServiceNow and Coforge's acquisition of Encora have helped ease concerns that had weighed on the sector earlier due to AI-linked disruption fears.The rebound comes after a sharp underperformance this year. The Nifty IT index has fallen over 21% so far in 2026, compared with a 10.5% decline in the benchmark Nifty. The recent momentum has turned positive, with the IT index gaining about 3% over the past week, while the Nifty has fallen 2.7%.131452365"The open interest has doubled in the past couple of months in large-cap IT stocks, indicating a huge build-up of short positions," said Jay Vora, Technical Analyst, Mirae Asset Sharekhan. "On Monday, while short positions remained as is, traders built fresh long positions in the space."Vora said that a more meaningful short covering rally would require stocks to move above key technical levels, with most large-cap names currently 2-3% below their 40-day exponential moving averages."There are short positions in the midcap IT companies as well, but it is not as significant as the large caps," he said.The rebound in IT shares is also on account of valuations falling below 10-year averages following the recent sell-off."Large-cap names like TCS and Infosys are trading at mouthwatering levels, close to 16-17 times Price to Earnings, while midcap companies like Coforge, Oracle and Mphasis are around 20-30 times PE, which are attractive," Sharma said.While near-term volatility may persist, valuations remain compelling over a two-to-three-year horizon, he said. Sharma's top picks are OFSS, Tech Mahindra, Coforge and Mphasis, and recommends IT Exchange Traded Funds for retail investors.The momentum favours IT stocks now, though the index is nearing key hurdles."Technically, the Nifty IT index has immediate support established at the 29,300-28,900 zone, while initial resistance is positioned at 30,500, with a broader multi-week position of 31,200," said Nischal Jain, Quant Researcher, Share.Market by PhonePe.Sharma said the Nifty IT index is on the verge of a breakout from an inverse head and shoulder pattern, which could extend the rally towards 31,500.
