Pre Market Report - 31-Aug-26 (Monday)

Major Cues:

  • US-Iran war flared up over the weekend
  • As a result, Brent crude jumped up to $90
  • Asian markets are bearish this morning
  • HDFC Bank’s CEO stepped down
  • MSCI rebalancing today

Positional

  • We are in a listless market that has no intent to make a directional move
  • On the downside, 23850-24000 is the only zone that can protect the bulls
  • The problem is that there’s no good news coming from any direction

Intraday

  • HDFC Bank’s reaction will be the highlight of the first half
  • If it reacts well to the news, the market can see some stability
  • The last 30 mins will be dominated by MSCI rebalancing-WATCH OUT!

Consider doing it all in a single thread like FIIs in Index futures and options - #636 by Jayakumar

Thanks for the suggestion, will review the pros/cons and move forward accordingly.

I don’t see any major cons though. Thread will be bumped up regardless to the top. Also we get to compare previous day in the same thread

If it did, it would be more confusing with multiple pre-market reports on the front page! :card_file_box:
