Indian markets gained almost 4% for the week outperforming most of the global markets and the Nifty closed above the psychological barrier of 17000. With breakout in historical volatility on 26th August, we have entered into a high volatility phase in days to come. This would mean either Nifty has the potential of rally to 18666 or will move lower to 15244. The pivot point for wide swing is placed at 17033 on closing basis and should be seen as alert levels in the near term. We can expect a big swing in Bank Nifty too as it is already done through wide underperformance; hence it may act as a game-changer.
U.S indices closed mixed reacting to a disappointing U.S. jobs report which raised fears about the pace of economic recovery but weakened the argument for near-term tapering. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 74.47 points, or 0.21%, to 35,369.35, the S&P 500 lost 1.41 points, or 0.03%, to 4,535.54 and the Nasdaq Composite added 32.34 points, or 0.21%, to 15,363.52.
