Indian benchmark equity indices ended flat after a mildly volatile day on May 14. After two weeks of gains, the Nifty ended the week 0.98% lower as coronavirus cases continue to surge, triggering concerns that a wider lockdown may be reimposed. The advance-decline ratio was again negative suggesting continued profit-taking in the broad market. The sell-off seen in The US markets on May 12 has unnerved a lot of investors as the likelihood of inflation/interest rate hike led sell-off across the globe is becoming stronger. However as the Nifty refuses to close at the intraday lows over the past two days, hopes of a short term upmove are still alive. 14,506-14,851 seems to be the new band for the Nifty for the near term.

Markets ended almost unchanged in a lackluster session, in continuation to the prevailing consolidation phase. On the sector front, except FMCG and capital & consumer goods, all the other indices ended with losses wherein auto, oil & gas and banking were the top losers. Since we're actively following global indices of late, we feel world markets would remain volatile in the near term and key commodity prices would be actively tracked. On the domestic front, earnings announcements from companies and COVID-19 cases would be on participants' radar. We suggest continuing with a selective trading approach and wait for further clarity.

Nifty50 index behaved in line with global indices and closed in red on a weekly basis. The index also failed to retest the immediate resistance zone of 15,000, as it is facing supply pressure at higher levels. The benchmark index is lacking directional move after a prolonged rally and is now contained within a consolidation range of 14,400 to 15,000. BankNifty and other indices are also forming similar patterns. We maintain a bearish bias on the markets in the short term at least till the immediate resistance levels aren’t broken.

The short term trend of Nifty is choppy with weak bias. The present market action signal chances of an upside bounce in the coming sessions. The confirmation of higher bottom at 14,591 (Friday's Low) is expected to pull the market on upside. The next upper levels to be watched around 14,900-15,000 in the next one week. Immediate support is placed at 14,590.

Nifty on closed the week in negative. The decline was not severe as other equity markets in the world have seen. Previous weeks-long green candle was supported by further buying interest. The prolonged sideways action in Nifty continues. Nifty needs to break above 15,000-15,050 for the index to see any further rally to continue. For the coming week, Nifty needs to break above 14,850. This would mean that Nifty will again attempt to move above 15,000-15,050 and if break out does manifest Nifty should rally towards 15,450-15,500. Any decline to 14,450-14,500 should be used to buy in the market with a stop below 14,200. The potential for a big rally above 15,000-15,050 is huge considering the pattern in play.
