Analysis
The session’s performance points to a cooling phase following elevated index levels, with liquidity shifting into a more selective and cautious stance. Pressure on heavyweight stocks capped any rebound attempts, while gains in smaller names were insufficient to change the broader direction. The current setup suggests continued short-term volatility, pending fresh catalysts to restore balance between buying and selling across the market.
