• Nifty is witnessing healthy profit booking and sector rotation after last week's sharp rally from 23,900 to 24,500. The 24,058–24,250 gap zone remains a crucial support, with the broader uptrend intact above 24,000–23,900. A decisive move above 24,600 could trigger the next leg of the rally.
• FII Positioning: FII positioning has improved, with long positions rising from 4.96 lakh lots (1 July) to 6.03 lakh lots. However, FIIs continue to hold a net short position of 2.38 lakh lots in index futures.
• Global Cue: Markets await the Fed's June meeting minutes today for fresh clues on the interest rate outlook after policymakers kept rates unchanged while maintaining a hawkish stance.
