Stocks to watch: Zydus Life, IndiGo, RIL among 10 shares in focus today; check list here

Stock market today: Benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty 50 ended marginally lower on Wednesday, May 27, marking their second straight session of losses, mainly weighed down by weak performance in select heavyweight stocks such as HDFC Bank and ICICI Bank, even as mid- and small-cap stocks continued to outperform.

The Sensex declined 142 points, or 0.19%, to close at 75,867.80, while the Nifty 50 slipped 7 points, or 0.03%, to settle at 23,907.15.

“Nifty extended its losing streak for a second session, slipping marginally by 6 points to settle at 23,907. Nifty remained in the narrow range ahead of Thursday’s market holiday. NSE cash market turnover rose by 6% compared to the previous session. From a technical perspective, Nifty is hovering around its 50-DEMA near 24,000, with the recent swing high at 24,100 acting as immediate resistance. On the downside, support is seen at 23,800, where the prior breakout aligns with the 20-DEMA, while a stronger base is placed near 23,600. These levels are likely to guide near-term positioning until a decisive breakout provides directional clarity,” said Nandish Shah - Deputy Vice President, HDFC Securities.

Amid this backdrop, these stocks are likely to remain in focus on Friday due to their own positive/negative triggers.
