Markets Ahead

The market is not giving any trend confirmation and it is lacking stable momentum on both sides. 

Nifty taking support from 18,130 and strongly testing 18,200 is a good indication of more upside moves. 

Kotak Bank, Reliance, HDFC and Axis Bank showed good buying in the afternoon. 

India's December S&P Manufacturing PMI came out at 57.8 vs 55.7 in November.

We have Fin Nifty expiry tomorrow. Let's watch the 19,160-220 zone as a major resistance. On the downside, we can watch 18,800 as the major level.

German S&P manufacturing PMI at 47.1 vs estimate 47.4 vs previous 47.4.

French S&P Manufacturing PMI at 49.2 vs estimate 48.9 vs 48.9 previous.

We are in the first trading week of 2023. Let's hope this expiry will be in good profits and focus on consistent returns throughout the year. Share your thoughts in the comment section below.
