Sentiment ticked higher into the weekend as the index held above key support through a volatile mid-week session.

Introduction — How the Week Actually Played Out

This week delivered exactly the kind of choppy-but-resilient action our Monday forecast flagged as the most likely scenario. The Nifty 50 tested support early in the week, recovered on improving FII sentiment by Wednesday, and closed the week modestly higher — a constructive outcome given how uncertain the setup looked five sessions ago.

Below is a full recap of what actually happened across the major indices and sectors, followed by our updated forecast for the week ahead.

Day-by-Day Recap

DayNifty MoveKey Driver
Monday−0.3%Weak global cues, cautious opening
Tuesday−0.4%Tested support zone intraday
Wednesday+0.6%FII flows turned positive, bounce off support
Thursday+0.4%Banking sector led broad recovery
Friday+0.2%Quiet close into the weekend

The key turning point was Wednesday’s bounce off support with confirmed FII buying — exactly the kind of dual confirmation signal that historically marks a genuine reversal rather than a dead-cat bounce.

What We Got Right — and What Changed

Our forecast at the start of the week correctly flagged the range-bound, levels-first setup and identified support around 24,600 as the key zone to watch — which held exactly as expected on Tuesday’s test. What shifted from our initial read was the speed of the FII flow reversal; we expected flows to remain net negative through the full week, but the Wednesday turn to positive came a few days earlier than anticipated.

Key insight: The combination of a held support level plus an earlier-than-expected FII flow reversal is a genuinely constructive setup heading into next week — it suggests the recent consolidation phase may be closer to resolving upward than our mid-week read suggested.

Pivot24,90081,700
Support 124,65080,600
Support 224,30079,200

With momentum now tilting mildly bullish after this week’s recovery, the bar for a confirmed breakout above resistance 1 has effectively lowered slightly — a continuation of this week’s FII buying trend would likely be enough to test that level early next week.

25,150
Next week’s key level to watch
“This week’s bounce off support with FII confirmation is exactly the setup we look for before raising conviction on a breakout attempt. Resistance at 25,150 is now the line that matters most heading into next week.”

WATCH
FII flow durability
“One week of positive FII flows doesn’t confirm a trend reversal on its own. We’d want to see this persist through at least two more weeks before treating it as a genuine regime change rather than a bounce.”

FAQ — People Also Ask About Next Week’s Market

What is the Nifty 50 forecast for next week?v
Base case is a continuation of the current range between roughly 24,700 and 25,150, with a bullish scenario opening toward 25,900 if this week’s FII buying trend continues and resistance breaks with volume. Not financial advice.
Why did the market recover mid-week?v
Wednesday’s bounce coincided with FII flows turning positive after several sessions of selling, combined with the index holding its key support level — a dual confirmation signal that historically marks a genuine reversal rather than a temporary bounce.
Which sector led this week’s recovery?v
Financial Services led the bounce, up roughly 0.9% for the week, followed by Auto on strong monthly sales data. IT was the notable laggard, down on weak U.S. tech spending commentary.
Is one week of positive FII flows enough to call a trend reversal?v
Not on its own — our desk view is that this needs to persist through at least two more weeks before being treated as a genuine regime change rather than a single-week bounce. Not financial advice.

Conclusion — A Week That Ended Better Than It Started

This week’s action was a genuine test of the range-bound thesis we laid out on Monday, and the index passed it — support held, FII flows reversed earlier than expected, and the week closed with modest but broad-based gains led by financials. Heading into next week, the setup has shifted from purely neutral to mildly constructive, with resistance at 25,150 now the level that matters most.

As always, treat this as a framework for the week ahead rather than a guarantee — a single week of improving flows is encouraging, but not yet confirmation of a larger trend change.
