Global stock markets: Dow 30, -0.7%; Nasdaq, -1.7%; S&P 500, -0.8%; Nikkei, +0.8%; Kospi, -0.5; Shanghai Composite, +0.6%.

Yesterday, Nifty gapped down at the start of the trading session and remained range-bound for most of the day. It made an intraday low of 17,915, then staged an upward recovery in the latter half of the day. However, it failed to close on a positive note. Metal stocks remained key laggards, with Hindalco and Tata Steel declining 3.4% and 2.9%, respectively.

Most sectoral indices succumbed to selling pressure, with Nifty PSU Bank and Nifty Metal declining 2.4% and 1.8%, respectively. On the other hand, Nifty Auto and Nifty Pharma closed 0.6% and 0.4% higher, respectively. The distribution day count currently stands at four. If the market succumbs to selling pressure and breaches its 50-DMA, we may change the market status to an Uptrend Under Pressure. Reducing exposure to stocks breaking below their 21- or 50-DMA on higher volume is important.
