The market has maintained its positive momentum, hovering near the key psychological level of 26,000, as investors anticipate a strong catalyst for further upward movement, said analysts.
A potential trade deal remains a crucial trigger that participants are closely monitoring.
Currently, the risk-reward ratio is largely favourable, bolstered by stronger-than-expected Q2 earnings from Midcaps, which have reinforced confidence in growth revival and point to potential future earnings upgrades, analysts added.
