We score this a major event, 79 out of 100. Across 203 past sessions when the Nifty moved up by a similar amount since 2016, the Nifty was higher five sessions later 63% of the time, with a median move of +0.7%. The record leans positive, but a quarter of those sessions still saw −0.8% or worse. This describes what has happened before; it is not a forecast or a recommendation.
