TALK OF NEGOTIATION BY ISRAEL- IRAN MAY TAKE BRENT CRUDE TOWARDS 70$: NIFTY MAY HEAD FOR MUCH AWAITED 25600 TRAJECTORY

Dated: 21/06/2025

As we enter into a fresh week the Nifty has been very fragile last week during the initial days as Israel-Iran conflict remained a deep showdown of exchange of dialogues, drones & missiles between the triangular war between Israel-Iran & US up to certain verbal exchanges where the tensions escalation lead to the rise in Crude Oil towards 79.02 (Brent Crude) but settled at 77.26. However, India here remains untouched with the indecisive escalations unless Crude Oil moves above 80$ as this may create issues into the domestic Equity markets.

Nifty defied by the levels of 25000 so long that crossing & sustaining above these level looks like unimaginable thing on Dalaal Street but yet it not only succeeded to cross but closed as well which is now the highest weekly closing since last September 2024. Bulls now have confidence that the current ongoing consolidation may soon come to an end & the one way slow & gradual upmove may again began where Nifty may inch towards unprecedented levels of 25500-25600.

Last week we have already mentioned the global & domestic factors which could affect the Equity markets in the coming days. Following are brief what we mentioned last week:

1) Global Effect of War:

i) Oil Price Spike
ii) Airspace Closure
iii) Aviation Route Disruptions
iv) Multiple War Fronts
v) How will the war affect the oil market?
vi) War Effect on Indian Economy

Here we specifically mentioned that there will be minimal effect on the domestic Equity markets despite the ongoing escalations. The major effect may only come if Crude Oil surpassed 80$ per barrel which in this case is well preserved.

If in the coming week due to the ongoing news of Iranian officials agreeing to the Nuclear treaty then the crude oil may hit 70$ per barrel followed by India Vix may hit 11 which is continuously cooling down since last 2 months from 22 to so far 13.60 has came which could eventually result in rise in Equity markets.

On the contrary Indian domestic Equity markets have nothing negative to show impact but rather line up of positive news which has started since the RBI governor has pushed the economy & banks with massive liquidity driven push for the FY 2025-26. Nifty in the coming week ahead if not restricted by geopolitical conflicts it may surge towards the much awaited upper levels of 25500-25600 kind of levels followed by the crucial support levels which have shifted further higher strictly at 24400 kind of levels which is safe since 1.50 months as of now. This 24400 on the lower levels plays a crucial role as a support in the ongoing upward momentum since it’s unharmed so long. If this gets broken we may get major lower levels (but that doesn’t looks like a possibility so far) while if remains intact we may not only get to see 25500-25600 but in July series we may get to see 26000-26250 kind of levels. Major Key sectors here could be from Banking, IT & PSU Sectors followed by few selected heavy weights like Reliance Industries etc.

However, in Nifty we have previously mentioned that Nifty in the last four months mainly March-April-May & so far in June 2025 shown immense strong rally from the lower levels of 21743.65 to testing high’s of 25114.25 in May 2025 came a long way of recovery almost 15.50% from the lower levels forming consecutive 3 bullish candles on monthly charts which suggests the continuation of bullish move ahead in the month of June as well as in July followed by massive growth in India’s Q4 GDP of 7.40%. However, we do not expect Nifty to further breaking any more below lower levels while major upside can be seen once the upper range of 25500-25600 gets broken up from where 26000-26250 could be seen in the July series but the road to this may slow & gradual as India Vix may now cool off towards lower levels of 11 from 13.60 currently .

This time not only broader markets witnessed a marvelous recovery but the dead portfolios of the investors may also get the heavy lift up in the coming weeks ahead few heavy weight giants came back near to their respective ATH (All Time High) levels. FII’s have now turned net buyer’s which not only in derivatives segment but also in Cash segment which took a turn in last few trading sessions.

The Indian Equity markets have gained many recent news items where major of the news items are mentioned below:

• Rupee recovered to 83.667 per but it again declined towards 86.916 again due to war escalation now closed at 86.580

• Continuous easing up of Dollar index & made low of 97.60 to now well settled near 98.71

• Brent Crude tested low’s of 58.40 & as earlier anticipated tested high’s of 79.04 (towards 80$) if it retains these then we may get 70$ per barrel in coming weeks ahead (if war doesn’t further escalates)

FII’s so far since October 2024 to till 2nd Week of March 2025 remained on the Net sell side with significant sell off & putting significant pressure on Indian domestic markets & had no as their relentless selling has been nonstop where since the beginning of the October 2024 month FII’s have done massive selling amounting to Rs. 3,07,360.09 crore combined of October, November, December, January, February, March, April & May 2025. On the contrary DII’s were the main supporters of the entire Indian domestic Equity Markets with whopping buying of Rs. 4,03,192.39 cr. since the beginning of October 2024 & in the Calendar year 2024 they have bought more than Rs. 5.26 Lacs cr. & Rs. 2.25 lac crore approx. so far in 2025.

On the other side FII’s net longs have once again reached towards low’s of 20-22% which may again increase towards 45% almost & we have consistently been mentioning this to improve lastly which continuously signifies & has now possible bottom formation 21700-22000 which indeed has turned the game & bottom was formed in Nifty. Now we expect the FII’s long positions to rise further towards 67% in the coming months ahead which may take Nifty & broader markets again on the higher levels.
