On September 30, 2024, the Indian stock market faced a significant downturn, with the Sensex plunging by 900 points and the Nifty falling below the 26,000 mark. This sharp decline was primarily triggered by weak global market cues and mounting pressure on key sectors, notably the IT sector and losses from major stocks, including Reliance Industries.
The day's trading saw the financial services sector declining by 0.5%, while the IT sector experienced a more pronounced drop of 1%. Conversely, the metals sector managed to gain 1.5%, buoyed by rising global metal prices, demonstrating a divergence in sector performance amidst the broader market decline.
Market analysts noted an increase in volatility, reflecting shifting investor sentiment towards profit-booking and heightened concerns regarding geopolitical tensions that are affecting overall market stability. The decline in key indices has prompted some analysts to predict further declines in the near term, while others are cautiously optimistic about a potential rebound. They are closely watching the Nifty's support level at 25,850, which may serve as a crucial indicator for future market movements.
This downturn highlights the ongoing challenges facing the Indian stock market, with investors grappling with a mix of domestic and international pressures. As uncertainty looms, market participants are advised to stay informed and consider their strategies carefully.
