Good, Bad & Ugly Weekly Review : 18 Jul 2025

Markets Overview

Nifty closed the week down by 0.72%, marking a return to the congestion zone that has persisted since May. Out of the five trading sessions, there were only two positive days while the remaining three saw a decline. The short-lived breakout from a few weeks ago has now been completely reversed, bringing the index back into familiar territory.

Latest Daily Byte

The week ended on a weak note, with markets completely devoid of any positive cues. Banking results from Axis Bank have unsettled sentiment, creating concerns that the upcoming earnings season may turn out weak. Markets are not allowing any positive developments to reflect in stock prices. Additionally, the India-US tariff treaty appears close to finalisation, which may provide the next set of triggers alongside major earnings results expected this weekend from large banks and Reliance. FIIs continue selling, with no signs of fresh buying, adding to the prevailing absence of positive triggers in the market today.
