Stock Market Today 12 Dec: What Experts say?
Ponmudi R, CEO of Enrich Money said “Thursday’s intraday recovery sets a constructive tone for today’s session, though any breakout-driven rally will need confirmation through strong weekend closing and supportive overnight positioning…. Yesterday’s sharp reversal from 25,693 exactly near the ascending trendline and the 50-EMA at 25,735-25,750–highlighted strong demand at lower levels. A sustained move above 25,950-26,000 is essential to unlock the next leg toward 26,150-26,250”.
