Share Market News Today | Sensex, Nifty, Share Prices LIVE: Domestic equity markets started the day’s trade in the positive territory as benchmark indices soared higher. S&P BSE Sensex regained 59,000, gaining 0.60% on Monday morning while Nifty 50 touched 17,600 again. Bank Nifty was above 37,500 while broader markets were outperforming benchmarks. India VIX was also in the green, gaining 1%. NTPC was the best performing Sensex stock, up 1.4% followed by Mahindra & Mahindra, Dr Reddy’s and State Bank of India. On the other hand, Nestle India was down 0.6% as the top laggard, followed by Tata Steel, and HUL. 

Domestic stock markets are likely to keep eyes on global cues and the Reserve Bank of India’s Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) for this week’s momentum. The MPC will meet later this week starting October 6 and will end its deliberations on October 8. “The Central Bank is expected to maintain its accommodative stance to maintain adequate liquidity in the system and to support economic activity,” said Vinod Nair, Head of Research at Geojit Financial Services. Although US Federal Reserve has started the taper talk, RBI is not expected to move on expected lines soon. “Given that economic activity has not yet returned to pre-pandemic levels, the RBI is unlikely to remove the economy’s training wheels. Any deviation from this stance, however, may result in whipsaw movements,” said analysts at Samco Research.

Sensex and Nifty were down from their intra-day highs but still sitting comfortably in the green. Dalal Street was outperforming Asian peers. 

The monetary policy meetings seem to have reached a stage where decisions from the RBI will be more keenly watched than what the MPC delivers. In the October meeting, the markets will be watching for RBI’s signals on addressing the liquidity glut along with normalization of reverse repo rates. The MPC will likely continue to stick with the accommodative stance, for now, while keeping the repo rate unchanged. All eyes for the next few meetings will be on the poteential liquidity normalization path and the reverse repo rate hikes but any sharp moves seem unlikely.

Nifty 50 index posted a big bearish candle after eight weeks of a sharp rise. Although Nifty is now trading around short-term averages, it is still outperforming its global peers and trading overbought in the short term.
