  Stock market live today: Perspective on FED FOMC announcement from Rajesh Palviya, SVP – Research, Axis Securities
  

  The Federal Reserve cut interest rates by 25 basis points, marking its first reduction of the year. This decision reflects a cautious approach to supporting the labour market amid increasing employment risks. The dovish stance is expected to lower borrowing costs and encourage consumer spending in the U.S. markets, which could lead to gains in equities, bonds, and real estate. However, some volatility may persist due to internal divisions. In India, the Fed’s actions could attract foreign capital, strengthening the rupee and benefiting stock indices like the BSE Sensex and NSE Nifty. 

  This favourable environment may help ease inflationary pressures and provide the RBI room for adjustments, although exporters might face challenges from currency strength. When combined with domestic factors, including the RBI’s earlier interest rate reductions, specifically a 50 basis point cut in June 2025 and another cut in April, as well as GST rate rationalization and various measures to boost consumption, the outlook for India’s economy appears strong. Potential GDP growth is projected to remain steady at around 6.5% to 6.7% for FY2025/26. Given these favourable conditions, several sectors, including Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance (BFSI), Information Technology (IT), Metals, and Domestic Consumption (FMCG, Retail, Durables), are positioned for potential gains.

  Stock market live today: Report: Retail Investors’ Shifting Role in Indian Stock Markets
  

  1. Retail Participation in Cash Segment – A Sharp Decline

  Retail investors once dominated direct equity trading, but their share in NSE’s cash market has dropped to 34.2% in FY25-26 (till August).

  This is a sharp fall from the pandemic peak of 45% in FY20-21, when retail enthusiasm was at its highest.

  Current levels are comparable to 2015-16, highlighting a gradual retreat from direct market dominance.

  2. Why Retail Investors are Withdrawing

  Pandemic Euphoria Faded: During COVID, easy apps and abundant liquidity brought millions of new investors. But many came for quick gains and exited after facing cycles of poor returns.

  Shift Towards Indirect Routes: Instead of trading themselves, many retail investors now prefer mutual funds, insurance-linked products, and PMS where professionals manage money.

  Regulatory Tightening: SEBI has raised margin rules, introduced stricter norms, and curbed speculative trading in F&O.

  Losses in F&O: Data shows most new entrants lost money in F&O, and sharp corrections in many mid- and small-cap stocks further discouraged direct participation.

  3. Where Retail Money is Moving

  Mutual Funds & Systematic Plans (SIPs): Steady inflows suggest retailers are now choosing professional fund managers over self-trading.

  Insurance & PMS: Increasing reliance on structured, long-term wealth management solutions.

  Indirect Exposure to F&O: Retailers’ footprint in futures & options rose from 23% in FY15-16 to 27.7% in FY25-26 (till August).

  4. Key Risks and Lessons for Retailers

  Chasing Quick Profits Backfires: Many investors entered for short-term gains but faced losses. The lesson: discipline matters more than thrill.

  High-Risk Speculation Curbed: Stricter rules may reduce short-term excitement, but they are designed to protect investors from reckless losses.

  Market Reality Check: Small and mid-cap stocks have fallen 30-40% from peaks, versus only 4-5% in the broader index. This proves that investing without understanding fundamentals can be dangerous.

  5. Outlook – A More Mature Market Ahead

  Experts believe that although curbs may dampen high-risk speculation, they will foster a healthier, long-term investing environment.

  With retail investors moving towards mutual funds and institutions playing a stronger role, India’s market is slowly shifting to a sustainable growth path.

  Future success for retailers lies in:

  Understanding fundamentals rather than speculation.

  Diversifying via funds instead of only direct stocks.

  Adopting discipline and patience rather than chasing momentum.

  Bulls Stay in Control, Key Levels to Watch Post Fed Rate Cut

  The US Federal Reserve delivered a widely anticipated 25-basis-point rate cut on Wednesday. With the US being the world’s largest economy, this decision has global market implications and early cues are already reflecting in positive US indices and Gift Nifty, hinting at a positive opening for Nifty today.

  Nifty 50 extended its winning streak on Wednesday, gaining 91.15 points (+0.36%) to close at 25,330.25. The index continues to exhibit strong bullish momentum, backed by robust volumes. Technically, the spot remains well above its 9-, 20-, and 50-day EMAs, with the RSI (14) reading at 67 — inching toward the overbought zone. While this does not guarantee a reversal, traders should watch for potential consolidation or a healthy pullback towards the psychological 25,000 level. Such dips could present attractive buy-on-dip opportunities if the bullish bias sustains.

  On the upside, immediate resistance lies at 25,400 — a breakout above this zone could open doors for 25,500–25,600 levels.

  On the downside, 25,250 acts as the first line of support, followed by 25,100. For Thursday’s session, the expected range is between 25,470 on the higher side and 25,160 on the lower side if 25,250 fails to hold.

  In the institutional flow space, FIIs continued their selling streak with net outflows of ₹989.81 crore, while DIIs stepped in aggressively by pumping in ₹2,205.12 crore which provided strong support to the market’s bullish undertone.

  Stock market live today: Morning Market Outlook by Ponmudi R, CEO of Enrich Money, Fundamental Views
  

  The U.S. Fed’s 25-bps rate cut marks a pivotal policy shift, lowering borrowing costs and reviving global risk appetite. Growth-sensitive sectors such as housing, tech, and small caps stand to benefit, though banks may face margin compression. A softer dollar also improves the prospects of stronger FII inflows into India. Coupled with consistent DII support and stable technical underpinnings, this development strengthens the case for continued market upside—so long as global cues remain favorable.

  FII Caution vs DII Confidence

  FIIs remain cautious, having offloaded ₹11,330.08 crores in the cash market month-to-date. However, their strategic additions in index futures (₹4,727.78 crores) and options (₹6,739.97 crores) reflect hedging activity rather than outright bearishness. Counterbalancing this, DIIs have infused ₹32,892.91 crores, supported by resilient retail SIP flows and confidence in India’s long-term growth story. This steady domestic support has anchored sentiment and offset external nervousness.

  Open Interest Signals

  Open Interest data indicates firm resistance around the 25,500–26,000 strike, where rising call OI suggests sellers may assert pressure. At the same time, concentrated put OI at 25,150–25,000 highlights strong defensive positioning, reinforcing the support base. The balance of OI shifts suggests cautious optimism, with market participants hedging while staying positioned for an eventual breakout.

  Global market live today: Fed Chair Powell
  

  Overall Effect Of Tariffs On Inflation Remains Unclear; Risks Of Persistent Tariff-Driven Inflation Must Be Managed.

  Balance Of Risks Has Shifted; Fed Well-Positioned To Respond In Timely Way.

  Base case is tariff impact on inflation short-lived.

  Risk of persistent inflation from tariffs needs to be managed and assesssed.

  Goods Inflation Has Picked Up While Services Disinflation Continues; Longer-Term Inflation Expectations Aligned With 2% Goal; Policy Effects On Economy Uncertain.

  I expect tariff-driven price increases to continue this year and next year.

  It’s possible tariffs are a reason for some slowing in labor market.

  Fed Is Firmly Committed To Keeping Its Independence.

  I don’t feel need to move quickly on rates.
