MarketSmith India has released its top stock picks for July 8, 2025, providing insights into potentially high-performing stocks for investors. These recommendations are designed to assist investors in making well-informed decisions in the stock market.
Market Trends and Analysis
On Monday, July 7, 2025, the Nifty50 traded within a narrow range and closed flat, reflecting cautious investor sentiment. This subdued movement was influenced by global uncertainty surrounding the US tariff decision, which dampened risk appetite. Fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) and consumption stocks offered some support, but weakness in IT and metal stocks limited overall gains.
The Nifty 50 index had a volatile trading session on the Friday before, ultimately closing with a 0.22% gain at 25,461. Broad-based buying across various sectors, including BFSI, Pharma, IT, FMCG, Realty, and Oil & Gas, drove this recovery. Domestic institutional investment played a crucial role in providing support amidst uncertain global market conditions. Despite the positive close, the index concluded the week with a 0.69% decline, primarily due to weaknesses in banking, financials, and real estate.

Nifty 50 Analysis
On July 4th, 2025, the Nifty 50's performance was marked by a bullish candle on the daily chart, indicating buying pressure at lower levels. All major sectoral indices, except Nifty Metal and Auto, closed in the green, with banking, financials, realty, pharma, IT, and FMCG leading the gains. Market breadth was slightly positive. However, the weekly chart showed a narrow-range bearish candle and a 0.69% decline.
The weekly Relative Strength Index (RSI) around 65 and a positive Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) crossover suggest a positive medium-term outlook.
According to O’Neil’s methodology, Nifty Bank remains in a “Confirmed Uptrend”. The index traded sideways between 56,600-57,600, closing above 57,000 weekly. Sustained trading above 57,000 could lead to a move towards 58,500-59,000. Failure to hold above 57,000 might increase volatility, keeping the index within the 57,000-56,000 range.
