Domestic markets continued their winning streak for a second day, mirroring positive vibes across Asia. The session started with a bang, echoing the bullish sentiment from the region. While some profit taking emerged at higher levels, leading the benchmarks to settle near flat line with minimal gains. This volatility can be partly attributed to the expiry of weekly index options on the NSE. However, the key takeaway remains impressive - both Sensex and Nifty scaled new highs, comfortably closing above 80,000 and 24,300 respectively. Pharma, healthcare, and IT sectors led the charge. Looking ahead, strong buying from FIIs and a favorable US bond yield environment suggest the bullish trend could persist, despite potential short-term corrections.
