Share Market News Today Updates, 14 November 2022: Sensex and Nifty settled on a lower note today. Share Market Updates Today: Indian equity benchmarks traded lower on Monday ahead of October retail inflation data, due later in the day, which would provide cues on the Reserve Bank of India's interest rate trajectory.
Asian shares were mostly up as South Korea's KOSPI rose 0.21 per cent, the Shanghai Composite index moved 0.69 per cent higher and Hang Seng Index jumped 3.25 per cent, while Japan's Nikkei index fell 0.76 per cent.
On the domestic front, low-cost carrier SpiceJet, drugmaker Biocon, tyre manufacturer Apollo Tyres, conglomerates Godrej Industries and Grasim Industries are among a slew of companies expected to report results later in the day.
Foreign institutional investors bought net of Rs 3,958 crore equities on Friday, while domestic investors bought Rs 616 crore of shares, as per provisional data available with the National Stock Exchange.
Here are the share market highlights:
"Nifty remained sideways during the session as it failed to give any directional breakout. On the daily chart, the index has sustained above the 50-EMA (Exponential Moving Average) (17,619), which confirms the positive trend. The momentum indicator is in positive crossover and rising. The trend for the short term looks positive. On the higher end, resistance is visible at 18,450-18,500. On the lower end, support is visible at 18,250," said Kunal Shah, Senior Technical Analyst at LKP Securities.
"Although there were favourable domestic indicators, the market was under pressure due to weakness in the US and other Asian markets. India's wholesale inflation dropped below forecasts, aided by a slowdown in the prices of manufactured goods and fuel & electricity. The domestic CPI, which is anticipated to continue the trend, will boost confidence in the Indian market as it will lessen the risk indicators for the RBI to maintain its hawkish stance," said Vinod Nair, Head of Research at Geojit Financial Services.
