Market Outlook: US futures were trading a quarter percent lower ahead of major economic data and earnings due this week. According to the latest survey released on Friday, US and European business activity accelerated to an 11-month high despite high interest rates. Asian markets have started on a mixed note, while the SGX Nifty is indicating a positive opening. On the domestic front, the Nifty continues to move in a range and has respected its 50-DEMA. However, it has formed a bearish engulfing pattern on the weekly chart. Overall, we expect sideways movement in our markets ahead of key results, but sector- and stock-specific action is likely to continue. Over the weekend, Reliance Industries and ICICI Bank declared a good set of quarterly numbers, which will support the markets at the lower end.
