Share Market News Today Updates, 27 September 2022: Sensex and Nifty plunged into the red in a highly volatile trade today. Indian equity benchmarks on Tuesday settled lower in a highly volatile trade as investors remained jittery about economic growth concerns. The domestic indices extended their fall for the fifth straight day, dragged by bank, financial and automobile shares.
However, Asian stocks rose as Japan's Nikkei index climbed 0.53 per cent, South Korea's KOSPI edged 0.13 per cent higher, Shanghai Composite index gained 1.40 per cent higher and Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index inched 0.02 per cent higher.
S&P Futures rose 0.88 per cent, Nasdaq futures climbed 1.07 per cent and Dow Futures jumped 0.66 per cent.
Back home, the benchmark BSE Sensex fell 38 points or 0.07 per cent to close at 57,107 today, while the broader NSE Nifty moved 9 points or 0.05 per cent lower to settle at 17,007.
Here are the share market highlights:
"Bank Nifty slipped below the previous session's low. The sentiment has turned negative as the index fell below the 50 EMA. The momentum indicator is in a bearish crossover. The trend looks negative, on the lower end it may fall towards 38,000, below 38,000 the index may drift down towards 37,700-37,500. On the higher end resistance is visible at 38,800-39,000," said Rupak De, Senior Technical Analyst at LKP Securities.
"The benchmark Nifty remained range bound ahead of the RBI policy meet. The index briefly slipped below 16,950 as it failed to sustain at the lower level leading to a close above 17,000. On the lower end, bulls have managed to protect the 200 DMA on a closing basis. The momentum indicator is in a bearish crossover. The trend remains weak; however, the proximity to the crucial support may induce a pullback in the market. On the higher end, resistance is visible at 17,150-17,200. Above 17,200, the Nifty may move towards 17,500. On the other hand, a decisive fall below 16,950 may trigger a panic button," said Rupak De, Senior Technical Analyst at LKP Securities.

"It's difficult for new investors to decide which scrips to buy, hold, or sell. However, equity does generate high real returns in the long-term and should be part of every young investor’s portfolio. One way to get around the difficult decision making is buying an index fund. The typical large-cap index fund such as a Nifty50 fund or Nifty Next 50 fund would provide investors exposure to the corporate titans of India. The index fund returns would be very close to what the underlying index provides," said Adhil Shetty, CEO, BankBazaar.com.
