In Friday’s trade, Nifty50 revisited 18100-mark, intraday decline found support near the 17900-level. About half of Nifty50 constituents managed to beat the benchmark returns on weekly basis, it indicates stocks specific action at play.
Most Nifty50 stocks are going through a consolidation phase with RSI daily indicator reading for all the Nifty50 stocks seen below levels of 70. Sustenance above the level of 18100 could continue the recent rally till 18200-18250 levels. However, mixed activity is possible on the sectoral front.

Stability at current levels is required for any revival to set in. Meanwhile, snapping the six-week winning streak, the PSU Bank index retreated this week on account of profit-taking.
Nifty Consumer Durable index gained positive traction, stocks specific rally within this space is possible.
