Nifty 50 Climbs for Third Straight Session, Reclaims 25,979 Mark
The Nifty 50 index continued its upward trajectory, rising by approximately half a percent to reclaim the 25,979 mark on Tuesday, February 10. This marks the third consecutive session of gains, reflecting a positive market sentiment fueled by optimism surrounding an India-US trade deal. The broader market environment remains supportive, driven by healthy foreign capital inflows, a weakening US dollar, and easing geopolitical tensions.
Market analysts believe that sustained buying by Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs), a stronger Indian rupee, and further reductions in geopolitical risks could propel the domestic market to new record highs in the near future. In this context, short-term traders are advised to focus on stocks exhibiting favourable technical indicators to capitalise on potential upside movements.
