Mumbai : The trend of decline in the stock market continues even on the occasion of Chhoti Diwali on Wednesday. A decline is being seen in the stock market today due to continuous withdrawal of foreign institutional investors and buying and selling trend of domestic investors.

expert opinion

Akshay Chinchalkar, Head of Research, Axis Securities, has said that there is a possibility of near-term improvement in Nifty after the initial fall. There can be two reasons for this happening. First, Monday's rally formed a Japanese “Bullish Harami” candlestick pattern, which followed yesterday's recovery above Friday's high of 24,440. Second, historically, whenever Nifty falls at least 0.5 per cent below its previous close and rises at least 1 per cent above the same day's low, the market has seen a bullish rise in the next few days. .
