Dalal Street Week Ahead: Can Nifty defend the 23,000 support zone?
19 Sept 2026 · ET Stocks, Economic Times Markets
Nifty enters the week in a corrective, range-bound setup, with 23,000–23,100 emerging as crucial support and 23,500 as the first resistance. Weak momentum indicators and subdued volatility suggest cautious trading. A sustained move above 23,500 could support a rebound, while a break below 23,000 may deepen the correction.
The analysis
Because the driver here is macro rather than company-specific, the read-through is to index-level positioning rather than to any single name — correlations tend to rise when the whole market faces the same signal.
