TECHOUTLOOK : Support for Nifty is at 4710 resistance at 4850.

Market Outlook: Indian markets are expected to open negative tracking negative Asian markets as investors turned bearish post the summit meeting which failed to restore investor confidence. We expect the weakness in the markets to prevail and for the Nifty to breakdown below 4700 over the next few sessions.

Global Markets: US markets closed down 1.3-1.5% and major European indices fell between 2-3.5%. The worrying situation is in the bond market in Europe, as bond yields touch all time highs. The Italian 10 year yield is inching close to 7%, and Spanish bond yields are above 6% currently. On the back of the weak cues from the western world, Asian equity markets are trading down. The brief rally post the European Union summit is over, signalling the end of the honeymoon period. Investors are now bracing for a likely EU downgrade as ratings agencies are not satisfied with the outcome of the summit.

Global events to watch:

  • NFIB small business index for November.
  • U.S Retail sales for November
