Stock Market Outlook Today, 3 June 2026; Sensex, Nifty Prediction for Wednesday

While benchmark indices staged a strong recovery on Tuesday after four consecutive sessions of decline, persistent foreign institutional investor (FII) outflows and geopolitical uncertainties are likely to keep overall sentiment cautious.

The domestic market witnessed a highly volatile trading session on Tuesday, which also marked the weekly expiry of Nifty derivatives contracts. After slipping to an intraday low of 23,229.15, the benchmark index recovered sharply during the second half of the session, supported by aggressive short covering and strong buying interest in information technology stocks.

By the close, the BSE Sensex had advanced 382.50 points, or 0.52%, to settle at 74,649.84, while the NSE Nifty gained 100.95 points, or 0.43%, to end at 23,483.55. The recovery helped the market snap a four-session losing streak and finish near the psychologically important 23,500 level.

According to Siddhartha Khemka, Head of Research, Wealth Management, Motilal Oswal Financial Services Ltd, investors are likely to remain focused on policy developments and sector-specific opportunities.

"Nifty is expected to trade in a broader range in the near term amid ongoing global macro uncertainty and sustained Foreign Institutional Investor outflows. Broader markets may continue to witness stock-specific movement, while investor focus is likely to remain on the RBI monetary policy outcome, keeping rate-sensitive sectors active. IT stocks are also expected to remain in focus following buying interest driven by positive commentary from global AI companies and strength in global technology shares," said Siddhartha Khemka - Head of Research, Wealth Management, Motilal Oswal Financial Services Ltd.

Nifty Prediction Today, June 3; Check Technical Outlook By Bajaj Broking Research

Technical analysts at Bajaj Broking Research believe the Nifty has shown encouraging signs after rebounding from a critical support zone and forming a bullish candlestick pattern on the daily chart.

The brokerage noted that the benchmark index snapped its four-session decline and closed around the 23,500 mark after witnessing strong buying demand from lower levels. The Nifty formed a bullish Marubozu candlestick pattern, typically considered a positive technical signal that reflects strong buying interest throughout the session.

According to the brokerage, buying emerged from the important support region of 23,200-23,000, which coincides with the lower band of the April 8 bullish gap area, the lower end of the recent consolidation range and the 61.8% retracement level of the previous rally from 22,182 to 24,601.

"Going ahead in the coming sessions a follow through strength above Tuesday's high (23556) will open further upside towards the resistance area of 24,750-24,800 levels in the coming sessions," stated Bajaj Broking Research.

The brokerage added that if the index fails to move above Tuesday's high, it may continue to consolidate within the 23,200-23,550 range. On the upside, the 23,700-23,800 zone is expected to act as an immediate resistance area as it coincides with the current week's high and the 20-day exponential moving average (EMA). A decisive move above 23,800 could pave the way for a rally towards the 24,100 mark.

Bank Nifty Outlook for Wednesday

The Bank Nifty also recovered on Tuesday and managed to end its four-session losing streak. However, analysts believe the banking index remains in a consolidation phase, with stock-specific movements likely to dominate near-term trading.

Bajaj Broking Research observed that the index formed a bullish candle on the daily chart despite registering a lower high and lower low pattern, indicating that consolidation remains the prevailing trend.

The brokerage expects Bank Nifty to continue trading within a broad range of 52,500 to 54,600 unless a decisive breakout or breakdown provides fresh directional cues.

Key support for the banking index is seen in the 52,700-52,500 zone, which aligns with the lower end of the April bullish gap area and the 61.8% retracement of the previous rally from 49,955 to 57,456. On the upside, immediate resistance is placed between 54,600 and 55,000, a zone that coincides with the current week's high and the 20-day EMA.
