Today’s Sensex: Live Stock Market Updates: Sensex is up 650 points, Nifty is above 16,500; Zomato and Infosys are up 3% each; The metal can lasts under pressure

Spirit: pre-open list

The market is preparing for a rally in the near term. The sharp rally in the Nasdaq and S&P 500 late last week suggests a near-term trend reversal. Lower dollar index and US 10-year bond yields are risk-positives especially in emerging markets. The defeated IT sector is likely to see a good comeback with the help of short selling. Finance, especially the leading banks, has more room to climb with the help of delivery-based investment buying. However, the price of Brent crude at $120 represents a headwind on a macroeconomic level.
