For the past one week, Nifty has been consolidating between the 13400-13600 band. Today, the index has slipped below the midpoint of this band, primarily weighted by weakness among banking, FMCG, and energy stocks. Most of the sectoral indices are showing signs of fatigue following strong price gains over the past several weeks. While the overall trajectory continues to be bullish, a minor, short-term correction seems overdue before the next up-leg commences.
For the next 4-5 sessions, 13400 is an important support to keep an eye on. If this support level breaks, participants could see a much-needed correction in the index towards 13000-12900 zone.
