Market Snapshot
Benchmark indices witnessed profit booking on May 13, following a record rally in the previous session.
The Nifty 50 slipped below 24,600, dragged down by selling pressure in IT, FMCG, auto, and banking sectors.
In contrast, the smallcap index extended its gains, showing continued investor interest in broader markets.
Capital goods, media, PSU bank, and pharma sectors saw gains in the range of 1% to 1.6%, indicating selective sectoral strength. IT, metal, FMCG, oil & gas, and realty indices declined between 0.9% and 2.5%, contributing to the overall market weakness.
Globally, Wall Street rallied overnight (May 12), with the S&P 500 hitting its highest level since early March, supported by news of a temporary US-China tariff cut agreement, which raised hopes of easing trade tensions sparked in early April by President Trump
