Markets Wrap: Sensex, Nifty Rebound with Over 1% Weekly Gain; RBI Rate Cut, Sectoral Rallies Lift Sentiment

By Business Desk | June 7, 2025

MUMBAI – Indian equity markets bounced back this week, snapping a multi-week losing streak as the Sensex and Nifty surged over 1%, largely buoyed by a strong rally in the final trading session and renewed investor optimism following the Reserve Bank of India’s rate cut.

RBI Boost Lifts Indices

The Nifty 50 jumped 252 points (1.02%) on monetary policy day, erasing two weeks of losses. Angel One noted a notable long build-up in index futures, indicating bullish sentiment. Bank Nifty led the charge, scaling a fresh all-time high, rising 1.4% intraday, with a 13% surge in open interest, underlining strong buying momentum.

Sector Watch: Auto, Realty, and Metals Outperform

The Auto sector, highly sensitive to interest rates, rebounded sharply from its 20-EMA support, breaking past key resistance levels and setting the tone for continued positive movement.
Realty stocks topped the sectoral charts with 4.6% gains, followed by Metals, which logged their best weekly performance with a 2% rise.
Gold finance stocks also rallied 2–7% after the RBI raised Loan-to-Value (LTV) ratio for sub-₹2.5 lakh gold loans to 85%.
However, Media, IT, and Energy stocks underperformed.

Market Breadth and Technical Outlook

India VIX, the volatility index, cooled further to a 9-week low, suggesting lower risk perception.
More than 75% of Nifty 50 and Nifty 500 stocks are trading above their 20- and 50-day EMAs, reflecting broad-based market strength.
Angel One’s technical analysis suggests that post-May’s consolidation phase, the Nifty has broken out of a congestion zone. The index is now eyeing 25,300 in the near term, corresponding to the 78.6% Fibonacci retracement level.

Global Cues Mixed

Asian markets were mixed: Japan’s Nikkei gained 0.5%, while Hong Kong’s Hang Seng slipped by the same margin.
European indices remained largely flat, offering little directional support.
