Nifty Just Fell for the Fourth Day in a Row. Here's Why That Matters More Than One Bad Day.

Nifty closed at 23,869 yesterday, down 0.53%, slipping below the watched 24,000 mark. Sensex fell 0.47% to 76,391. Four straight losing sessions now, driven by crude near $98 a barrel, persistent FII selling, a weaker rupee, and ongoing West Asia tensions. A single red day can be noise, a reaction to one headline that reverses just as fast. A four-day streak with the same causes repeating each day usually means the market is genuinely repricing something, not just reacting once and moving on. $ONGC C is worth watching in this stretch, since as an oil producer it tends to benefit from elevated crude even while the broader market struggles under the same pressure. Technicals suggest Nifty is nearing a support zone, a level where buying interest has stepped in before. Whether it holds over the next few sessions says a lot about where this correction is headed. The takeaway. One bad day rarely tells you much. A multi-day streak with the same drivers repeating is worth real attention.
