Zee Business Managing Editor Anil Singhvi said that Friday session was completely action packed. It was a momentous day for Nifty, Sensex, Mid Cap and Small Cap as they made record highs on Friday, he added. There was profit booking as both Nifty and Bank Nifty attained important levels, he further said. The US markets also traded in a range so there were no major cues from the global markets.

The fresh buying was in mid cap and small cap stocks and not on the market stalwarts, Singhvi. In large cap stocks, sectoral churning is now being seen. Most stocks of brokerage firms, mutual fund stocks, exchanges and depositories were among action. The settlement of indices does not reflect the true picture, he added.

There is no weakness in the markets and they are ready for some good action on Monday. The initial cues will come from the Global markets, he added. He said that the domestic markets will keep an eye on the Dow futures in the Monday morning trade.

Nifty 50 is having a strong support at 15,800-15,850. Meanwhile there will be small resistance zone between 15,975 and 16.025.

As for Bank Nifty, the strong support zone is between 35,500-35,600. The resistance will be in the range between 36,000 and 36,800.

The Q1FY22 results of HDFC Bank will also impact how Bank Nifty moves on Monday, he further said. The bank posted strong results for the quarter ended June 30, 2021.  As per HDFC Bank statement, the Bank's profit jumped from Rs 6,660 crore to Rs 7730 crore on year-on-year basis.
