- Summary:
- Sensex rebounds above 74,300 after tariff-driven selloff, but bearish momentum persists. Resistance at 75,685 remains the key level to watch.
The BSE Sensex Index bounced back sharply on Tuesday after a brutal selloff that briefly pushed the index below 72,000 for the first time in months. The recovery brought Sensex back above 74,300, but technical damage remains — and momentum favors the bears.
This rebound mirrors broader global stabilization after last week’s tariff-driven chaos, yet India’s equity market is not in the clear. Volatility remains high, and traders are watching key resistance zones closely.
What Triggered the Panic in Indian Stocks?
The Sensex decline was driven by:
- Escalating U.S.-China tariff tensions triggering global derisking
- Weakness in key sectors including IT, infrastructure, and financials
- Rising concerns about capital outflows and domestic inflation pressures
Though today’s relief rally offers temporary support, it follows a six-day losing streak, and buying appears reactive — not conviction-driven.
Sensex Technical Analysis
- Trend: Bearish with signs of technical bounce
- Momentum: RSI at 42.59 — recovering but still below neutral
- MACD: Bearish crossover intact, but histogram shows slowing downside
- Immediate Resistance: 75,685.11 · 78,523.16

Final Outlook for Sensex: Bounce, Not Breakout
The Sensex has found short-term support — but it hasn’t found stability. Today’s rebound is technical, not fundamental, and the broader trend remains pressured by macro volatility and weak earnings sentiment.
Unless bulls recapture the 75,600–76,000 zone, the next big move could still be downward — especially if global equities stumble again.
