Dalal Street extended its rebound as foreign institutional investors reportedly bought about ₹7,300 crore, supporting broad gains and pushing Nifty close to its all-time high. Analysts linked the move to improving risk appetite and optimism around progress in India–US trade discussions. Largecap banks, autos, and industrials outperformed, while defensives held firm. Domestic institutional flows remained supportive. Derivatives positioning indicated constructive sentiment with put interest building near immediate supports. Near-term risks include global yield moves and crude volatility, but market breadth and higher advance-decline ratios suggested continued accumulation on intraday dips by institutional and retail participants.
