On Monday morning, the Nifty index witnessed a mixed trading session with significant fluctuations in heavyweight stocks. Reliance Industries started the day with a notable decline of 2.48%. However, it managed to recover from its initial lows as the trading session progressed. Conversely, HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank and Axis Bank stocks played a crucial role in maintaining the overall market indices in a slightly positive territory.
The observed market behavior can be attributed to a strategic index management approach, commonly employed when one of the major heavyweight stocks is anticipated to open with a substantial gap down or gap up. This tactic aims to balance the overall index performance amidst the volatility caused by individual heavyweight components.
