The week started strong with Nifty 50 and Bank Nifty taking charge right out of the gate on Monday. They led the way, setting the tone for what seemed like a bullish week ahead. The heightened volatility throughout the week was marked by a significant surge of over 33% in India VIX.
However, the real fireworks came later, as both indices soared to new all-time highs on Friday. While Nifty Smallcap 100 and Nifty Midcap 100 joined the high-flying club, they also faced some profit booking on Friday. Power and metal stocks, on the other hand, maintained their momentum, keeping the positive vibes alive throughout the week.
Nifty 50 ended the week flat at 22,476. Nifty PSE and Nifty Auto surged the most with a gain of 3.94% and 1.94% respectively while Nifty IT declined by over 2%.
