The NSE Nifty 50 gained 100.20 points or 0.52% to settle at 19,525.55, while the BSE Sensex added as much as 354.77 points to 65,259.45.
“This week is a holiday-shortened one and the performance of the global indices, especially the US markets, will be on participants’ radar for cues. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) spent the entire week in a range but finally surpassed the hurdle of 34,200 on Friday. Now, sustainability above that zone could trigger the next leg of recovery, which may help in ending the consolidation in our markets,” said Ajit Mishra, SVP – Technical Research, Religare Broking.
