If Wednesday's high of 10,976 gets taken out in the next few sessions, bulls will be able to push the benchmark index towards the weekly upper Bollinger Band, which is near 11,100. On the flip side, any minor degree dip is likely to find support near the recent gap area of 10,876-10,860.

You might call it a breather after a strong rally seen in the previous trading session but analysts’ feel it was a strong day for Indian markets even though the index pared gains and closed marginally in the green.

Big News:

The big news is trade wars and rising concerns that it will impact growth and investment sentiment across the world.

The US-China trade war is escalating further and traumatizing the equity markets worldwide.

A new round of tariffs and verbal exchange between the head of states has sent global equity markets a negative signal.

Fresh reports indicate that China has accused the United States of bullying and warned it would hit back after the Trump administration raised the stakes in their trade dispute, threatening 10 percent tariffs on USD 200 billion of Chinese goods, said a Reuters report.

China’s commerce ministry said on Wednesday it was “shocked” and would complain to the World Trade Organisation, but did not immediately say how it would retaliate. In a statement, it called the US actions “completely unacceptable”, the report added.

The USD 200 billion far exceeds the total value of goods China imports from the United States, which means Beijing may need to think of creative ways to respond to such US measures.
