Stock Market Live Updates: Are FIIs Have Turned Buyers?
Dr. V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Financial Services: Nifty is in a consolidation range and is likely to remain in this consolidation phase with a mild upward bias in the near-term. The biggest positive for the market is the return of the FIIs and the consequent strength in the largecaps, particularly in banking and IT. FIIs turning buyers have enthused the retail investors who have been on the defensive after the near 10% correction from the September peak. Now retail investors are back in action and are chasing many mid and smallcaps. Mid and Smallcap indices have again turned resilient supported by sustained fund flows in these segments. Valuations in these segments are hard to justify but the resilience of these segments might continue, given the strong fund flows into these segments."

Market Live Updates: Nifty Technical Outlook
Anand James, Chief Market Strategist, Geojit Financial Services: The reluctance to float above 24650 early yesterday sparked a slippage as feared, but it lost momentum as soon as the first downside objective of 24530 was achieved. The turn higher thereof from the key support is encouraging, but we will still need a direct rise above 24740 to stay with the 25262-25600 trajectory. Else, expect a consolidation, or a slow decline to 24420/380.

Market Live Updates: What Will Drive Market Today
Prashanth Tapse, Senior VP (Research), Mehta Equities: Over the last three trading sessions, Nifty has drifted lower, reflecting fading optimism as bulls face microeconomic challenges and a murkier macro outlook. Adani Group stocks also declined yesterday, with key names like Adani Enterprises, Adani Power, and Adani Green Energy slipping. Investor focus now turns to the November US CPI, the final inflation reading before the Federal Reserve's year-end policy meeting, which could challenge expectations of a rate cut. FIIs, however, remained net buyers, adding Rs 1,286 crore yesterday, contributing to a Rs 13,944 crore net inflow for December. Bullish consolidation remains the theme, with key trades favouring Nifty and Bank Nifty buys at current levels. Siemens, Voltas, and HCL Tech are our top bullish picks this week, while all eyes will also be on India's CPI release on December 12, and Vishal Mega Mart's Rs 8,000 crore IPO opening tomorrow.
